superfluities of the body with the powre and vertue increasinge Saturne is lord ouer the Lyuer and hath to doe with the bottome or lowest parte of the stomacke Iupiter chalengeth a righte in the Belly as likewise in the Nauell in so much that in the Temple of Iupiter Hammon in Lybia the figure or lykenesse of a Mans Nauell was hanged vp to fignifie thereby that the thorough closing and fastning together of the Belly belongeth onely to Iupiter himselfe Likewise hee holdeth the Ribbes and the place aboute the priuities as also the Bowels Entrailes within Moreouer the best and more principall bloude is his as also both the armes and both the handes as well the righte as the left with all the whole powre vertue Nutritiue whereby the whole body is nourished and maynteyned To Mars appertayneth and belongeth the seconde more base Bloude as also the Vaines the Ridney the Celles or placinges of the Chest the Backe the Buttockes the Corse and abundaunce of Seede as also all that full powre of the Stomacke wherein Choler is ingendred Proper to Mercury is the Splene the Mylte the Bladder the Matrix and all those places within the Body which are naturally appoynted to the onely vse and office of nourishing Venus ruleth the Secret partes and ordereth the naturall Seede and also causeth and prounketh to the Lust and Appetite of thinges It may be perceyued also that in some one parte of the body they will all seuen beare a sway Hermes sayth that in the head of man there are seuen Pores or holes allotted to dyuerse and sundry offices of the which euery one of them is subiect to a sundry Planet As that Pore or hole which is in the righte Eare apperteineth to Saturne that in the left to Iupiter Mars also hath the gouernment of that which is in the right side of the nose Venus the contrary Sol is maister ouer that which holdeth the stringes of the Eye Luna ouer the other in the left Eye and all the whole workmanship of the mouth is proper alone to Mercury Great graciouse also are all such Benefites of Mankinde as also the other baser kyndes doe estsoones receiue of the Planets especially when as those of like cōdition nature quality doe meete together in gracious signes of like house And cōtrariwise heauy and hearde is their happe fortune and chaunce which haue and obtayne any thing of them as they be in battlement stryfe contencion among them selues Wherefore I shall not greatly do amysse if in this place I briefly touch which of them with other are in friendly league and likance in like sorte which of them with other are at deadly discorde and disagreement Friends to Saturne and his welwillers are Iupiter Mercury Sol and Luna his enemies are Mars and Vonus Iupiters friends are all the other only Mars excepted Mars is despised and detested of all the other except onely of Venus Sol is in great friendship with Iupiter and Venus and in greathatred with Mars Mercury and Luna Venus hath the loue of all the rest saue onely of Saturne In friendship with Mercury are Iupiter Venus Saturne his enemies are Sol Luna Mars Friends to Luna are Iupiter Venus and Saturne her enemies are Mars and Mercury Great contencion also is amongst them as they be placed in contrary house as betwene Saturne and Venus And a much more great debate or strife is betwene thē as they bee in Opposite lofte or degree in Exaltation Which thing is often shewed forth betwene Saturne and Sol Iupiter Mars Venus and Mercury And further their attonement or agreement is in lyke Nature Quality Substaunce might or powre as is of Mars and Sol Venus and Luna Iupiter and Venus In so much that it was not without iuste cause and occast in that Heraclitus sayd that al things were persited and made by a proportiō fetched from friēdship and discord By these Planets also happeneth better chaunce fortune as also mischaunce misfortune Insomuch that some of them are tearmed the Gods of grace and fortune as is Iupiter whom they name Fortuna maior the greater or more gracious Likewise Venus who in the rules of Astrologie is named Fortuna minor as if you woulde say lesse gracious and yet a Lady of grace The other are called the Gods of mishap or casuall chaunce of the which sort is Saturne whom they name Infortuna maior As also Mars which is called Infortuna minor And Mercury which is called the God of indifferency who is for al companies for with the good he is good and with the bad he is as bad Sol by his shyning Sunne beames and amiable aspecte or countenaunce is cheareful to al things but being in coniunction with other or eclypsed both hindreth much for the presēt time prognosticateth threatneth more for the future time cōming The moone is sent in message from one to another and hath hir recourse and passage by them all so that she hurteth or benefiteth as occasiō serueth by them from them By Astrologie also they haue all theyr determynate kinde As Venus and Luna are feminyne or of the woman kinde And all the other are accompted Masculine or after men They are also deuided into Planets of the day and Planets of the nighte The day Planets are Saturne Iupiter Sol Mercurie The night Planets are Mars Venus and Luna Againe they be so deuyded as that certaine of them be holden for heauy and Massie of the which sorte are Saturne Iupiter and Mars other are as subtile and light as are Venus Mercury Luna But Sol or the sunne is partaker of neither of both these properties Amongst the elementes these do also contend for the superiority For Iupiter dealeth with that commixture whych partely is of the ayer and partely of the Water Luna or the Moone exacteth that which consysteth and commeth of the Water alone Sol also helpeth forwardes the meanes or maner in doing or accōplishing of things Luna or the Moone as it were ministreth matter in such behalfes Mars and Mercury labour their proceeding going forward and doe geue them speedy and quick expedition the firste by the meanes of his force and might and the other by his aptnesse and Dexterity in deliueraunce The plenty and store of matter commeth from Venus and the continuation or wayght of any businesse whatsoeuer is proper alone to Saturne Moreouer all the Sygnes in the Zodiacall Circle doe participate and inioy the qualities of the seuen Planets As Taurus and Capricornus bee Saturnine Virgo and Libra are after Iupiter Aries and Scorpio be after Mars Cancer Leo be after Sol or the Sunne Gemini and Sagittarius be after Venus Aquarius and Pisces bee after the Moone And accordinge to the course of the Sunne Aries Taurus and Gemini doe procure a warme and moyst Spring time very good for the Sanguine Complexion and for tender age Cancer Leo and Virgo likewise
