that 's the question For a lusty stout man beares the disease longer and is longer before he takes his bed then a puny weakly sickly man is a meer suspition of a sicknesse will send a faint-hearted man to bed you may perswade him he is sicke whether he be or no Notwithstanding this is most certain that in most acute diseases as also in many other diseases as the Falling sicknesse Palsies Apoplexies Pluresies c. 't is an easie thing to find out the beginning or the preci e time of the invasion of the disease The common opinion of such as are learned in Astrology is and according to their opinion I affirm that that moment of time is to be taken for the beginning of the disease in which a man finds a manifest pain or hurt in his body for instance when a man hath got a Fever usually the head akes certain dayes before this is not the Fever but a Messenger or forerunner of the Fever the true beginning of the Fever is when the disease appears sensibly or when a horror or trembling invades the sicke as does usually in the beginning of a Fever that is the beginning of the disease when the disease appeares manifest to sence And this was the judgement of Hippocrates one of the honestest of Physitians And you shall find this alwaies that the more acute the disease is the more manifest the beginning of it is to sense yea so manifest that it is almost impossible that the beginning should lie hid from any one that wants reason if he have but sense CHAP. III. Of the Sympathy and Antipathy of the Signes and Planets BEfore we come to prognostick we must know that there is a Sympathy between Celestiall and Terrestiall bodyes which will easily appear if we consider that the whole creation is one entire and united body composed by the power of an All-wise God of a composition of discords Also there is friendship and hatred between one sign of the Zodiack and another for fiery signes are contrary to watry and nocturnal to diurnall c. The Planets are also friendly and inimical one to another but in their friendship and enmity what ever the matter is I cannot agree neither with ancient nor modern writers And when I cannot do so I le fly to Dr. Reason for advice they hold Mars and Venus to be friends And what your opinion is of all the rest you may find by Mr. Lillies Introduction My own opinion grounded upon reason is this that there are two causes of friendship and enmity between Planets Essential and Accidental Planets are essentially inimically three wayes First When their Houses or Exaltations are opposite one to the other and so Saturn is an enemy to both Luminaries Jupiter to Mercury and e contra Mars to Venus 2. Planets are Inimicall one to the other when their temperatures or qualities are opposite and so jupiter is an enemy to Saturn he being hot and moist Saturn cold and dry So Mars is enemy to Venus he being hot and dry she cold and moist 3. Planets are Inimical when their conditions differ so there is enmity to Sol and Jupiter for he loves the Court and he the Country Jupiter is enemy to Mars for he loves Peace and Justice Mars violence and oppressions Mars is enemy to Venus for he rejoyceth in the field she in the bed he loves to be publique she playes least in sight And thus you see in every respect what a difficult thing it is to make Mars and Venus rationally friends Accidentall inimicalnesse to Planets is when they are in square or opposition c. the one to the other Also Inimicalnesse must needs be in the Signes for if cold and heat moisture and drynesse be inconsistent together in one and the same place as your eyes will tell you if you will but please to take a pale of water and throw it into the fire then can they not be in one and the same place in the heavens And if so as is most true then must some signes be cold some dry and some moist one sign must needs cherish one quality more then another and seeing the first qualities are adverse the one to the other there is a necessity that sometimes one must yeild and sometimes overcome and this is the reason of the corruption generation and vicissitude of things Moreover the Moon constituted in a signe commonly strikes upon the nature of the signe she is in as if she be in a fiery sign she stirs up Choler c. Also as every Climate hath two qualities so hath every celestiall sign the Aereal signes are hot and moist the Farthly signes cold and dry the Fiery signes hot and dry the Watry signes cold and moist And thus you see how the concords are made of discords for Aery signes are joyned to fiery by heat and to watry by moisture Watry are joyned to aery by moisture and to earthly by coldnesse the Earthly are joyned to the watry by coldnesse and to fiery by drynesse this is an old true maxime of Philosophers which I shal not at this time be captious against Besides the congresse and configurature of the Planets and fixed Stars is diligently to be heeded of these some are obnoxious and hatefull a Quartile and Opposition as also the Conjunction of bad Planets others are healthful as Sextile and Trine and Conjunction of good Planets and indeed the chiefest part of Astrology consisteth in the due observation of configurations for by these come alterations in things below either to better or worse according to the nature of the Planets or Stars that signifie them for when two Stars are joyned with 〈◊〉 aspected to one another they seminate something in Sub-Lunary bodies according to their owne nature It dissention be between the starres the sperme proves malicious and destructive and tumultuous even as the opposition of winds especially the North and South winds produceth thunder lightning and pestilentiall vapours and this we find never failes if the South-wind prevails and the Moon and Mercu ry behold one another Thus you see a reason if you know but what a reason is or ever heard of such a thing why diseases in the body of man are either exasperated or remitted according to the good or evill meeting of the Planets Of the Aspects opposition is the worst of all not by any contrariety or diversity of nature of the Signs in which the oppositions fall out but in respect of the Planets themselves opposing which being at greatest distance are most inimicall they being in a posture to outface one another and this is the most principall cause of enmity A Quartile is inimicall because the Stars so aspected be in signes of contrary nature as Sol in Aries Luna in Cancer the aspect is hatefull because Aries is hot and dry Cancer cold and moist Aries masculine Cancer feminine Aries diurnall Cancer nocturnall Andnow by the leave of my Author and also of
Stomack Liver and Sides combust and in Quartile to Mars stirred up a Plurisie and Mercury afflicted shewed a dry Cough Hence it appeares that Monnsieur Duryet was no Physician for if he had he would easily have known that a Plurisie never comes without a dry Cough the most excellent of men may have failings The Moon in Aquarius applying to Saturn at the beginning of the disease shows the disease comes of wearinesse according to the Doctrine both of Hippocrates and Hermes but here arises another question Shall the disease be long or short This is answered thus A fixed Signe upon the cuspe of the 6th House shews length of the disease Saturne in the 6th House shews no lesse but tels the same tale Againe Saturne Lord of the 6th stronger then the Lord of the Ascendent shews a violent increase of the disease Seeing Mars in a fiery signe afflicts both Luminaries the Sun by a Quartile and the Moon by a Sextile hence we may safely gather that Saturne and Mars are Authors of the disease and to part stakes between them the one made it violent the other continuing Give me leave now a little to passe my judgement upon this Figure When first I viewed the Figure upon the first blush I admired the man should live the Lord of the Ascendent being combust applyed to the Sun Mars casting Antiscion to the Sun the Moon upon the Cuspe of the 6th Cum multis aliis The onely reason that I could finde of the life were these 1. Saturne and Mars are both strong and neither of them Lord of Death though both of them of the sicknesse then will they both of them shew themselves like potent enemies that are able to hurt their foe but scorne it though they are enemies to life yet they are honorable enemies because strong The Moon implies not immediately to Saturne but to the body of Mercury who is Lord of the 10. which shews the disease might be cured by Physick if a wise Physician had it in hand 3. There is a Reception between the Sun and Mars which tyes the Sword of Mars from killing 4 Venus beautifies the signification of the 6th house almost as much as Saturne deforms it 5 Neither Saturne nor Mars behold the Ascendent and that 's good 6 The disease came by the mans own misguiding himselfe because the Lord of the 12. and Ascendent are together 7. The Moon applies to a fortune which hath triplicitie in the Ascendent though in an ill House 8. I am confident the man journyed again so soon as he was well First because Mars Lord of the end is neer the House of Journyes at the decumbiture Secondly because the Moon applies to the Lady of the third House at the decumbiture which is Venus CHAP. VI The way to set a Figure of 16. Houses THe way of setting this Figure differs nothing from the former save onely that the Heavens are divided into twice as many parts The manner of erecting it is this the true place of the Moon being taken at the decumbiture place that upon the Cusp of the Ascendent as though it were ascending at the time to which adde 22 degrees 30 minutes and you have the first intercidentall time 22. 30 being added to that shew the first judicials time as many more being added to that shew the second intercidentall time and as many added to them brings about the first Crisis this shall be clearly shewed in this Example The Sun a Figure of Crisis in 16.

December the ninth stilo novo was taken with a Feaver and shivering at eight of the Clock in the morning the next day the shivering left him the Feaver remaining The Feaver seeming like a Hemitriters or double tertian or a Causus which is a continuall burning Feaver which of them soever it was this is certaine it arose from some cholerick matter The second day it had another accesse and the third a worse then that The place of the Moon at the decumbiture was in a preterited trine of Saturne The Moon applyed to the Sextile of Mercury Venus and Jupiter The Fifthteenth day of the same month of December appeares the first Crisis and though to sweat well many medicines were applyed and those powerfull yet the Feaver gave not way an inch because the Moon applyed to Mars and the Sun to Saturne though by good aspects neither was it mitigated till the eighteenth day at which time the Moon applyed to Mercury Venus and Jupiter Here was that Aphorisme of Hippocrates ratified Chap. 5. Aphor. 15. that if the Moon be just afflicted at the decumbiture yet if she be with the beames of the Malevolents at the Crisis a good Crisis is not to be expected but health will be staved of A Rationall Figure upon the Decumbiture An Astrologicall Judgement upon the Figure I Confesse in this judgement my Author is very faulty he is dead and I shall not make knowne his faults to my brethren the communalty of England however this is true In this figure Capricorne is upon the cuspe of the ascendent and it is a moveable signe therefore the disease is likely to be short 2 Saturne Lord of it is very potent and strong in his owne house and swift in course ther 's a Second Argument 3 Both fortunes in the ascendent may well make up a third 4 The Moone applying to the fortunes makes up a fourth this is enough onely the Quartile of the Sun and Mars shewes the sicknesse of Choler I could give you mine owne observations upon this disease if I would but I let it alone and leave every man to his own heuretes How to set a Figure of twelve Houses for the Crisis CHAP. II. THis seems to me to be the most rationall of all the rest and it is the most easily and readily done and it may be that 's the reason
