in Gemini in Quartile to Saturn in Virgo some difference now about Religious Affairs Secondly 1690. Saturn comes to the Quadrate of the Conjunction and there Stationary in Opposition to Mercury this threatens some Country with Wars and Calamities Anno 1692. Mars Stationary in Gemini in Opposition to Saturn in Sagitary this seems to portend a Storm to London about Religion and this is confirmed by Mars his Conjunction with Saturn in Sagitary and both in Opposition to Jupiter in Gemini in the same year which I fear may be continued to 1693. Anno 1698. Which is the fourteenth year after their fourth Conjunction in Leo 1683. Saturn comes to the opposite place of the Conjunction in Quartile to Jupiter and Mercury in Conjunction in Scorpio and in 1699. Mercury comes to a Conjunction of Saturn in Aquarius in direct Opposition to the degree of the Conjunction 1682. God preserve some parts of Europe from Murders and Slaughters c. Why may there not some Factions arise among the Roman Clergy in order to the ruine of that See I am of the Opinion there will now and within a few years succeeding The fate of Kingdoms and Countries doth not depend only upon the Conjunction and Aspects of the Planets only but also upon the motion of the Nodes for by their motion through the Signes are Eclipses caused in divers parts of the Heavens And when they especially those of the Sun happen near the Horoscopes of Kingdoms or Cities they cause divers Accidents and Calamities according to their then signification and it will not be amiss here to give a Historical Account of their effects as they have for many years concerned Great Brittain and France Anno 1554. There was an Opposition of Saturn and Jupiter from Virgo and Pisces and the next year the North Node transited Gemini in those years were the great Persecutions in Queen Marys dayes and other differences and disputes about Religion which may be easily remembred by the Reformed Churches still Anno 1564. The North Node transited Sagitary about this time the Duke of Guise Killed 1500 people at a Sermon great troubles throughout France and there was a Rebellion in the North of England Anno 1574. The Prince of Conde heads the Protestants and so begins the first Civil War in France about Religion which by Act of Pacification was ended anno 1576. the South Node then transited Gemini Anno 1583 and 1584. The North Node again transited Sagitary now great troubles in England with Plots against the Queen and Protestants Anno 1592. The North Node passeth through Gemini the Popish Lords rise in Scotland some Hang'd for Writing Seditious Books and shortly after the Plot of Dr. Lopez Anno 1602. The North Node again passed through Sagitary the Jesuits and Secular Priests in England quarrel and the year following the Plot of Watson and Clark against King James is discovered Anno 1611. There was a total Eclipse of the Sun in Gemini Proclamations against Priests and Jesuits two Arrian Hereticks Burnt the one at London the other at Lichfield and Prince Henry the Flower of England dies Anno 1621. There was a great Eclipse in the beginning of Gemini Gondamore is abused by the people in London Streets and the French Protestants are troubled by the Papists Anno 1630. There was two very great Eclipses of the Sun the one in Gemini the other in Sagitary the Earl of Castlehaven Beheaded on Tower-hill London-Bridge lamentably ruined by Fire soon after some Tumults in Ireland Anno 1639. There were two very great Eclipses of the Sun the one in Gemini the other in Sagitary the King Marches down into Scotland against the Scots then in Arms the Spaniards and Dutch Fight in the Downs the Scots Invade England c. Anno 1648. There was a Total Eclipse of the Sun in the last degree of Gemini Francis Lord Villiers slain Colchester surrendred and Lucas and Lisle Shot the King Murdered the Irish Rebellion and shortly after the Powder-blow in Tower-Street Cum multis aliis Anno 1658. There was two Central Eclipses of the Sun in Sagitary and Gemini Cromwel dies an Insurrection in Chesshire Monck Marches toward London Tumults and Uproars in the City the Gates and Portcullises of London pull'd down Anno 1666. In December there was almost an Central Eclipse of the Moon in Gemini and in May following there happen'd another as great in Sagitary and in November following there was another as great as either in Gemini all of the Moon the Boyes Rise Tumultuously in London and withstand the Kings Guards shortly after the then Mayor laying hold of the Penal Laws set the City into a common hurry by committing divers of the Aldermen and other Citizens to Prison for Religion Anno 1676. There were two Central Eclipses of the Sun the one in Gemini the other in Sagitary Tumultuous Risings in London the Weavers Rise about the Abuses of their Trade the Train-bands are raised to prevent Disturbances here are also new Proclamations and old Laws put in force against the Nonconformists By this Rule we must expect some effects of some such like nature when the North-Node transites Gemini which is in the year 1785 and 1686. But what these effects will be let time shew But secondly and lastly in particular the effects of this Phasma or two Moons will appear more visibly about the beginning of August Saturn and Mars then having been in Square a little before So also about the middle of November Mars then comes to the opposite point of the last Conjunction of Saturn and Mars and toward the end of November the Sun comes to the same point December will be a Month of great Action in some Countrys of Europe and so will January following neither will March be a Month of less Action then the rest France and Germany are under Aries God preserve those places and all others under Aries from Differences and Wars I thought to have insisted Astrologically upon those Oppositions of Saturn and Mars and Saturn and the Sun in December next but because it is a work of a different nature from this here before us I will refer it to some other opportunity or else leave it for some abler Pen In the mean time I pray God bless England Scotland and Ireland with Peace and Plenty and let all our Contention be who shall be most Zealous and who shall perform the most Acts of Justice in the fear of God then may England be called the Holy Land and London The New Jerusalem the City of our God And as Ovid himself said so do I. Quod si quis ab alto Justus adest precibus Jupiter ipse meis Dii precor a nobis omen removete Sinistrum sua det reduci vir meus arma Jovi Sed timeo quotiesque subit miserabile bellum more nivis lacrymae sole madentis eunt FINIS
Lipsick and Wittemberg and the Imperial Towns of Frankford Worms and Normberg gave their Suffrage Nay the Calvinists also freely consented to observe the same Jubilee in opposition to the Romish Church the Protestants put forth Declarations of their Sufferings from the Popish party and in the end both parties took Arms. The Spaniards seek to Consummate the Match between the Infanta and the Prince of Wales in hopes to advance the Romish Faction which causeth much Jealousies and many fears among the Subjects Gondamor endeavoureth and accomplisheth the death of Sir Walter Rawleigh as a common enemy to the Spanish cause In a word it would take up a particular Volume to relate the Troubles and Consternations of Europe about Religion at that time and the principle end of all was to reduce this Kingdom of England to the Romish perswasion but before Saturn got out of Gemini Mars came to an Opposition of him in Sagitary These Hurries did not end here with 1618 but continued at least four years and more till the Conjunction in Leo gave fresh matter to the motion of Nature Anno 1623. In July there was a Conjunction of Saturn and Jupiter in Leo The Marriage of the Prince of Wales to the Infanta is the publick and common business of both Kingdoms the Bishop of Conchen Inquisitor General of Spain and Conde Olivares sollicite the Prince to turn Papist to which end they tamper with the Duke of Buckingham and the Pope sends a Letter both to the Prince and Duke about the same matter in the end the Match is disliked and the Papists of England apprehend themselves in danger thereby The Prince leaves Spain and shortly after Marries the French Lady the Spaniards also prepare for a War with England They that would see more of these matters let them read our Learned and Honest Country man John Rushworth's Historical Collection of private passages of State Anno 1621. There was a Conjunction of Saturn and Mars in Libra a humane Signe and an Opposition of Jupiter and the Sun from Sagitary and Gemini the people commit divers Outrages in and about London Dr. Lamb is Murdered in the Streets the Duke of Buckingham is Killed by John Felton who is also Executed great Severities are used against the Papists who are Imprisoned and proceeded against according to Law divers Priests and Jesuits taken at Clerkenwell and sent to Newgate new Proclamations against all Priests and Jesuits but particularly against the Titular Archbishop of Calcedon and all others who had taken Orders from the See of Rome Anno 1638. Which was the fifteenth year after the Conjunction Saturn comes to the opposite point of the Conjunction and Mars the same year is seven Months passing through the Sign Sagitary that is from the begining of February to the beginning of September The Scots quarrel with the Common-Prayer Book lately sent into Scotland and it occasions Tumultuous Meetings The Scots enter into a Covenant Charles the first declares against Innovations in Religion The Queen Mother of France comes into England The Covenanters take Arms and Sollicite France for Aid The King leads an Army into Scotland against them he Encamps within two Miles of Berwick in view of the Scotch Army they come to a Treaty Peace is Concluded and the Armies are both Disbanded and not long after the Troubles of England began that is in the year 1640. about Bishops and Religion Anno 1643. In the Month of February there was a Conjunction of Saturn and Jupiter in 25 degrees of Pisces and Mars at the same time in Gemini in Square with the Sun and hastening to a Square of Saturn both in Pisces The Capuchins at Somerset-house were banished by Order of Parliament the Cross in Cheapside demolished c. The difference in England grows bloody now in good earnest what the Causes of these differences were together with the particular transactions of the management are so well known to all men in general that it will save me both time and Paper in the further inlargement thereon Anno 1656. Saturn came to the opposite point of the last Conjunction and so made up not full fourteen years but that Conjunction should have fallen in Aries and Saturn would have come to its Opposition in 1658 yet nevertheless when he came to his fifteenth year you may observe what a hurry here was in England Sir Henry Slingsby and Dr. Hewit died upon Tower-hill Oliver Cromwel died also Richard Cromwel was quickly after made Protector and was afterwards quickly found useless there were now divers new cuts of Government as a Council of State the Keepers of the Liberty of England a Committee of Safety c. Anno 1663. There was a Conjunction of Saturn and Jupiter in 13 degrees of Sagitary and a little before the Counjunction Mars opposed them both from Gemini The January following there were 19 or 20 men Executed in Yorkshire as Conspirators and the March following there was four more Condemned and Executed in the same County for the same Facts and in the year following the Wars with Holland began Anno 1678. Saturn came to an Opposition of the place of the former Conjunction and within two Months after he came to a Conjunction of Mars near the same place this being compleatly the 15 year after the Conjunction the Michaelmas day at night following there was a Horrid Popish Plot discovered at Whitehall to take away His Majesties Life c. To alter Religion bringing in Popery and change the Government for which thirteen men have suffered namely Coleman Green Berry Hill Ireland Groves Pickering Whitebread Harcourt Gawen Turner Fenwick and Mr. Langhorn But this may be observed by the Studious Reader that from the beginning of October 1678. suddenly after this Plot was discovered to the end of May last past the Fiery Planet Mars was passing through Leo which was almost eight Months a thing not usual what hath been the effect of this in England I suppose the whole Kingdom knows neither need I be at the pains to Insert the particulars thereof they being so well known to every one Thus have I endeavoured to prove the fifteenth year after the Conjunction to be a year of Trouble especially to England if at that time Saturn or Mars happen to be in Sagitary or Gemini and that at those times there happens debates and differences about Religion as I have before proved Hence it may appear that these subsequent years are like to be years of great trouble in the World to omit a particular Judgment of all the troublesome years I only here speak in the general for I well know that Saturn and Jupiter make no less then four Conjunctions in the Sign Leo and I could speak something of their effects but it is not my business in this place perhaps I may live to do it But I speak according to the precedent Hypothesis First 1686. Jupiter in Scorpio in Quartile to the place of the last Conjunction and Mars
cause some hurry and molestation about Religion in the World the fifteenth year always after his Conjunction with Jupiter and perhaps this may better satisfie the Reader if he considers the years 1578 1598 1618 1638 1658. and lastly the year 1678. with what Aspects then happened relating to the several Countries according to the place where their Aspects happen and that when they chance to fall in Gemini Sagitarius Aries or Libra with their Quadrangles they concern England and particularly when their Aspects happen in humane Signes they then work upon men and their actions at home but if in Quadrupedian Signes then their effects are Extraneous and Forreign but of this matter some examples will more perfectly illustrate the Discourse Anno 1563. In August there was a Conjunction of Saturn and Jupiter in Cancer after which followed that third Bloody War in France about Religion and the Dukes d' Alva made horrible work in the Low Countries And the Massacre in France suceeded also Anno 1578. Being 15 years after the Conjunction Saturn came to the Opposition hereof and Mars was that year in August in Quartile to Saturn and in Opposition to Jupiter and the Sun Pope Gregory the 13. Conspired with the Spaniards to Depose Queen Elizabeth and to restore the Romish Religion and to this purpose one Stukely an English Fugitive was sent with 800 Italians to Invade Ireland and joyn there with the Popish Rebels who in 1579. did many Murders Anno 1581. Edmond Campian the Jesuit was Executed with others and new Laws made against the Papists Mars that year did transite Gemini and in July Mercury in Leo passed by the Opposition of Saturn in Aquarius Anno 1583. There was a Conjunction of Saturn and Jupiter in Pisces and in July Mars being in Virgo passed by the Opposition of them both and shortly after Francis Throckmorton Esq was Executed for contriving the death of the Queen and shortly after William Parrey for a Fact of the same kind together with a horrid Plot discovered by one Creighton a Scotch Jesuit who was taken upon the Seas by Dutch Pirates of the Pope and the Spaniards Resolution to Invade England By the Parliament this year were all forbid to Harbour Papists who were commanded to depart the Realm in 40 days Anno 1588. When that so well known damnable design of the Spaniards was put in practice against England there was a Conjunction of Saturn Mars the Sun and Mercury in Taurus Yet without doubt this was but the effect of the last Conjunction of Saturn and Jupiter in Pisces with some other causes advanced by the Opposition of Saturn and Mercury from Aries and Libra in 1585. and their Conjunction in Aries 1386. These without doubt were the Causes of those disturbances in those years by Mr. Babington Giffard a Priest Ballard a Priest and Hodgon one of the same Trade together with l'Aubespine the French Ambassador all contriving the Queens death Anno 1589. The Papists again endeavour to Invade England again by the means of Bruse a Priest and Creighton a Jesuit who drawed Huntley Arral Crawford by perswasion into Arms but were by the care of King James prevented Saturn was now in Gemini in Opposition to Mars in Sagitary and Jupiter in Virgo in Square to Saturn and shortly after Mars in Pisces near the place of the former Conjunction in Square to Saturn Anno 1594. Doctor Lopar was Executed undertaking to Poison the Queen and Cullen York and Williams were apprehended for undertaking to Burn the Fleet with Fire Balls there was then in July a Conjunction of the Moon Saturn Mars Venus and Mercury in Leo in Opposition to Jupiter Mars at the time of the Conjunction was very near the Lyons-heart Anno 1597. Saturn comes to the opposite place of the last Conjunction in Square to Mars in Gemini Edward Squire was Executed for endeavouring to Poison the Pommel of the Queens Saddle and the Pommel of the Earl of Essex's Chair To this he was perswaded by Walpoole the Jesuit who gave him this Benediction God bless thee and give thee strength my Son and give thee good courage I pawn my Soul for thine and thou shalt have my Prayers dead and alive Anno 1603. June there was an Opposition of Saturn and Mercury from Sagitary and Gemini upon which Opposition there was a horrible Plot discovered against King James Those concerned were the Lord Cobham the Lord Gray of Wilton Sir Walter Rawleigh Sir Griffin Markham Sir Edward Parham Brook Brooksby Copley Watson and Clark Priests Their Indictment was for Conspiring the Kings death to raise Rebellion to alter Religion to subvert the State and procure Forreign Invasion They were all found guilty but Parham of whom there were but three put death that is Clark Brooks and Watson who was the man that drew all the rest into the Plot. Anno 1603. There was a Conjuncton of Saturn and Jupiter in Sagitary and from that time to the end of June following Mercury was in Libra which was the space of seven Months and in October following Mars came to a Conjunction of them both in Sagitary there was now a great Plague in England most part of this year 1604. under the influence of these Positions they laid the ensuing Plot to blow up the Parliament House And in 1605. when Mars came to an Opposition of Saturn from Gemini and Sagitary in June they began to fall close to their work and to hasten the bringing in of their materials to perform their design And near the end of October Mercury came into Virgo to a Square of Saturn and suddenly after the whole Plot was discovered in which was Winter Fauks Keys Bates Winter Graunt Rookwood Digby all which were Executed and suddenly after Garnet the Provincial of the English Jesuits was Executed also at which time there was also Proclamation for all Jesuits Priests and Friers to depart the Land upon pain of death Anno 1610. In the beginning of the year there w●● 〈◊〉 Opposition of Jupiter and Mars from Gemini and Sagitary there was now new Proclamation put forth to command all Roman Priests and Jesuits to depart the Kingdom by the fourth of July following upon pain of death Anno 1618. Which was the fifteenth year after the Conjunction of Saturn and Jupiter in June there was a Conjunction of Saturn and Mars in the beginning of Gemini within six degrees of the opposite point of the last Conjunction and Jupiter at that time in Square to them both At this time not only England but divers parts beyond Sea are in a general disturbance about Religion the Pope perswades the Papists to keep a day of Jubilee and to implore Gods assistance to the Catholick Cause the Elector of Saxony at that time remembring that it was 100 years since Luther opposed the Popes power he ordained a solemn Feast of three days for Thanksgiving to God for their deliverance from the Tyranny of Rome to this the Universities of
