A STRANGE AND WONDERFVLL Prognostication Or rather PRENOMINATION of those Accidents which shall or at least are likely to happen as may be coniectured by the heauenly Influences Foretelling the wondrous direfull Euents which shall fall out in all Christendome as may be collected by the Rules and Directions of Astrology in this yeare 1624. Written by Anthonio Magini an Italian Professor of the Mathematickes and much experienced in Astronomy And now faithfully translated into English Printed at London for Nathanael Butter 1624. The Preface shewing in what manner this Kalender or Prognostication is to be vnderstood TO come to our Almanacke and Prognostication which hath aboue two hundred declarations or points and therefore if the one halfe or the fourth part be but true it will be well Furthermore it is to bee vnderstood that the things happen not iust the same time houre or day they are predicted but are deferred sometimes for a little while for you know that water in a Kettle hanged on the fire boyles not presently and euen so is it with the operation of the Planets or Signes of the Firmament A small proofe of the last yeare 1623. Sayd hee not what was to happen betwixt the Rhyne Elbe and Weser and in the Northerne parts of the world Did he not likewise speake of a Match as also where the warre should be and how farre it should extend Hee predicted likewise a battell of a certaine Prince and the defeat of his souldiers vpon the thirteenth of August of which the Boers of Westphalia should tel strange things Likewise he talked much of treason and of a simultated peace as is knowne to Holland and Hungary And made also mention of the Forces that should march vpon the frontier of Turky and Hungary designing the inuasion of Bethlem Gabor Moreouer hee predicted also that the plague should reigne mightily in the Northerne Lands as hath afterwards beene seene in Polonia Lituania Sweden and East-Friesland in which lands there died aboue 200000 persons of the Sicknesse Obserue likewise what he saith of the dearth the like being hardly knowne by any man now liuing And concerning the East-Indies haue not the Protestants made such an inuasion in it as was neuer done before Likewise we will not forget that which he told of the West-Indies and of the great alteration in the Romane Empire Moreouer hee predicted that the Northerne Lands should want both bread and wine which seemed to be vnlikely seeing it was a fertile yeare and that all the fruits of the field were ripe and caried into the barnes and there was also great store of fish catcht vpon which accident the prices of al other victuals are vsed to fal but the dearth increased dayly against all expectation He sayth also that about the Haruest or August many should be slaine vpon the frontiers of Hungary Here beginneth the Italian Sooth-sayer or Prognostication practised by Anthonio Magini Professor of the Mathematickes at Bononia in Italy Ianuarie THe yeares in former times took not their beginning as they do now a 1.

Three Kings for some began it when the Sun was in the midst of the Firmament and others when it was neerest vnto them and we make the beginning of it when the Sunne is furthest from vs to wit in Capricornus So that our Winter beginneth vpon the the 22 of September And I find hauing ouer-looked all the celestiall Signes that Saturnus and Iupiter going into Leo goe backwards as the Crabs doe Mars in Aquarius Venus and Mercurius in Sagitarius and Luna neere at hand trauelling as a messenger vp and down when the Moone shall be in Taurus and begin to encrease then we shall haue the eight after the birth of Christ and the same is the first day of the yeare and shal be gouerned as followeth by the power of God The 5 being full Moone are Saturnus and Iupiter declared Lords of this yere Luna is also to be an aid of them And first to speake of her gouernment Sunday G 7.

full Moone were both Mars Saturnus Venus Sol and Luna altogether appearing in the course of the Sunne as well by water as by land with their burning Torches and commanded Mercurie to conduct the Waggon in such manner that the Aduocate or Speaker of the Husbandman was driuen to say Quisquis delirat plectuntur Achiui That is to say the Boare must pay for the ill deedes actions and dycing ill play of these great Masters which if it were but the Boare alone for such great Armadoes or Armies need not to be set forth to play onely the poore Boare but it is to bring some great Masters either in or out of their Kingdome vnder the Gouernment of this Zodiacke for I finde none that will giue ouer or desist and concerning Iupiter himselfe he is as Herbinger gone before to procure that Virgo shall haue something to bring to the Table The 12. so shall there bee a coniunction of Saturnus and Mars and the operation of it shall be seene before 14. dayes runne at an end or are expired The 14. being new Moone so begin they to doe their operation and that not onely by water vnder Neptunus but also by land vnder Mars and chiefly in the Northerne lands of Europe the Armies are marching in seuerall places and the Husbandman lets his Plowe rest and the Shipper hoyseth his Sayles vp the one makes roome for the other and that which the one hath gathered the other consumeth to bee short the world goeth quite contrarie and the Netherlanders themselues also shall goe with their heads downewards to diue after the earthly gold others will goe to fill the ayre with their renowne which stands as firme as a Castle in the skie there shall also another come forth which shall be desirous to haue a Starre aswell in heauen as his Confederates but to be briefe euery one striue for the higher boord or place whereupon there is a great strife to happen both betwixt Beasts and Birds and after the end of the battell so shall the ayre be infected by the noisome smell of the dead carkasses The 19. commeth Sol in Virgo leauing yet some of the afore-mentioned Counsellers in Leo where they are rayling being almost in a rage And there shall without any doubt many desperate spirits be found yea aswell amongst beasts as men The 20. being the first quarter so shall the coniunction before mentioned shew her selfe more plaine and especially towards the Southerne Lands Poland hath likewise to expect something out of Sweden Looke vpon the King of the Gotts and Hungarie which drinke other drinke of Italy we haue spoken before Spaine get shelles and Signeur will couer himselfe with Letice and Roses which is seene in Baetauia it selfe and that in a laughing manner but when the one laughs so weepes the other that is the course of this yeare The 28. being full Moone began the streames of the Ocean Sea to cease and to stand still to harken after the rumour that was spread abroad of the Sunne who should turne his head to the South leauing the Northerne quarters with many sicknesses and dead ones but he shall keepe a certaine limited course euen as the fierce thunders and the hurlewindes doe In the East and West Indies shall the seruants of Mars fight and Mars shall receaue a deadly wound but recouer his health againe Saturnus shall burne his head by reason that his anger shall be greater when he commeth in Virgo September THe 4. being the last quarter is Lucifer onely in Leo he is to doe much hurt and shall vse such cruelty as Mars himselfe neuer imagined yea he gets so much vantage that he can shew his power according to his owne pleasure but I pitty them vpon whom it lights And if his reigne might haue beene of any continuance hee would haue destroyed the one 4. part of mankinde and sent them to the earth to looke what is become of their Ancestors And thereupon so shall the Mountaines in Italy Sicilia and they also that are in the East and West Indies cast vp both fire and smoake and there are likewise to happen fierce Thunder-bolts and Earthquakes and other elementary alterations which shall mightily mooue the world to her selfe and repent if it be not too late according to the Prouerbe to boyle a Posset when the man is dead therefore looke to it it concerneth your owne selfe The 12. is the new Moone vpon Thursday against the euening are both Sol Iupiter Mars and Venus in Virgo being altogether very sorie and heauie and at the same time so groweth the Sunne darke vpon 52. degrees by the Line in the South and vpon 51. to 54. on the North side of the Equinoctiall shall the blow be felt so that Italy and Spaine shall be in great danger Mercurius as a swift Messenger bringeth tydings of a certaine battaile and was therefore as sorrie as a Souldier is when a louse of his falleth in the fire It seemeth that the aforementioned Gods would faine put the Woolfes skinne off and drawe the Sheepes skin on and to ouer-rule Mars seeing that he had played such a crooked or left-handed tricke and desired him to consider what damage the Townes and Countries had receaued and how much pretious bloud of man there was spilled as likewise how much hurt mankinde had receiued by famine miserie pestilence and the other plagues which the God of Gods appointed vnto it The 20. is the first quarter of the Moone and you shall then finde out that Mercurius is in Libra to weigh ouer all the Merchandizes but the Messenger is too light and the Iustice too meeke not auoyding many wicked accidents which it could doe for to doe ill aydes to feed the war and the warre makes some rich but they resemble the Beast which deuoures the gold and the more it eates groweth more hungery so that all will be ill vnlesse the instigators and ringleaders be set in the fore-front at the approach The next day being the 21. commeth Sol in Libra and makes both night and day of one length but the goods and Lordships shall still vnequally bee deuided The 26. is full Moone and Sol being in Libra shall be aboue the Netherlands end bordering Countries which are neere it Vpon this day there shall in the euening about 9. of the clocke a darkenesse on the Moone bee seene euen vnder Pisces what this signifieth shall the time shew But it is certaine that the learned hold it for an ill signe and to presage a generall ruine robberie and violence and causeth also some to die but especially them vnto whom it is showne But the wicked will not cease to oppresse the innocent and take no warning and thinke on these plagues onely when they are sleeping and leaue all care to the Birds which haue small legges October THe 4. it is the Last quarter Saturnius departs then from Leo which is a good signe but neuerthelesse there are many things heere before mentioned
