V. Of the latitudes and aspects of the Planets HAuing applyed the Planets in the saide figure and ordained as we haue said in the former chapter the parts proceeding of the proportions of the said Planets you must consequently draw out of the Ephemerides theyr latitudes put apart all the aspects which is among them and towardes the said parts and xij houses also the radiations after the last proposition of the booke of Directions of Iohn de Regiomonte vpon the which note that the aspects opposites haue alwaies diuers latitudes to them of their Planets although they keepe the same number As if Saturne had two degrees of latitude septentrionall his opposition hath two degrees of latitudes meridionall The quadrant aspect hath no latitude for it falleth alwaies vpon the Eclipse The Trine aspect retaineth the halfe of the number of the latitude in contrary part for if a Planet haue one degree of latitude meridionall his trine shall haue thirtie minutes of latitude septentrionall The Sextile retaineth the same side with the halfe of the number You must also note that these aspects of Saturne and of Iupiter doe not extend but vnto nine degrees or for the most longest vnto twelue those of Mars vnto eyght or for the most part to tenne The Sunne extendeth his beames to xv degrees Venus and Mercurie almost to eyght The Moone vnto twelue the head taile of the Dragon likewise extend their forces vnto twelue degrees Moreouer it is to be noted that the opposition is a plaine aspect and perfect enmity the Quadrate of lesse enmity the Trine of perfect loue the Sextile of imperfect loue That which alwaies receiueth exception in Iupiter and Venus of the which opposites and quadrate aspects profit the Sunne the Moone with reception or without reception and to others also with reception CHAP. VI. Of the fortunes and infortunes of the Planets and parts of Heauen AFter this you must consider the forces weakenesse of the Planets parts and Houses and conferring the ones significations with the other you must collect the fortunes and infortunes of euerie place as followeth Heere followeth the infortunes The Planets and other places of the Heauen be called vnfortunate when they be burned vnder the beames of the Sunne Burnings are called Saturne and Iupiter when betweene them the Sunne they haue lesse then twelue degrees Mars when he is burned of the Sunne hath at the least xj degrees and a halfe Venus and Mercurie when they be neere

XII Of the vnderstanding and manners of a Man HOW to knowe the felicitie or infelicitie of the Spirite the nature of the same you must looke in the place of Mercurie and of the Moone the Planet that in these two places hath most dignities shall be signifier of the spirite The which if it be Saturne well disposed shall signifie the man of a great and profound knowledge of good counsell and of good grauitie or a strong opinion close secrete solitarie dissembling his good and euill a louer of iust men and of good age reioycing vpon the treasures heritages and labourings holding discourse of antiquities and of great affayres admirator of buildings Sometimes a little merrie incontinent sadde sometymes laughing or murmuring by himselfe alone a lyttle slothfull a little enuious and not alwaies keeping hys promise If he be vnfortunate he shall be noted enuious sadde solitarie fearefull mellancholie faint-harted a raylor iealous a malefactor euill a blasphemer a lyer deceiuer a Vsurer holder of opinions reiecting the counsell of others fearing that all the world doth deceiue hym vnciuill a villaine a slouine dishonest flying the company of men vnlesse it be to deceiue them and to draw any profite hauing no other friend but his villainous gayne vsing somtimes sorcery Iupiter signifier of the spirite well disposed shewes the man sweete curteous honest gracious amiable faithfull pittifull liberall of good behauior of good hart good loue following noblenesse and all honesty louing God abounding in friendes dreaming alwaies vpon some vertuous thing and withdrawes himselfe sometimes solitary to thinke vpon some goodnes vsing in all and by all hys affayres a great equitie prudence and modestie hauing great courage to accomplish If hee be vnfortunate of himselfe and not to meete with other starres in the place of good loue hee will giue sometimes foolishnes in the place of honesty pryde in the place of liberalitie prodigalitie in the place of louing good will doth yeeld hym an hypocrite seeming to follow noblenesse when indeed he will dispraise all the world in the place of honestie it wyll make hym dreame of tyranny If the said Iupiter be vnfortunate of other Planets and not of hymselfe he taketh all theyr vices and couereth them with his sayde vertues in manner of an euill hypocrite If Mars well fortunate be the said significator hee shall cause the man to be of a high courage hardy irefull furious a hazarder a conducter of warres the first in businesse and onely in deedes and cogitations gyuen to armes strong stubberne and mightie trusting too much to his owne puissaunce not fearing any perrill and blessed in all hys deedes If he be vnfortunate it maketh the man tymerous a theefe a lyer blasphemer mutenous cruell a murtherer hardy proude arrogant not to be borne withall despysing hys owne proper goods and the goods of other vsing force and violence against hys Parents and against all the worlde a diuilish man without shame without counsell without vertue without loue without any feare or reuerence of God furious seditious gyuen and prompt to all mischiefe If the Sunne be significator in his good disposition it makes the man mannerly wise prudent of good counsell a louer of noblenes following glory and honour gyuen to iustice and gouernments of Townes and Citties louing hunting worthy and of great estimation If it be vnfortunate it sheweth great pride excessiue ambition and tyrannie and doth nourish the thought If Venus signifie the qualitie of the spirite in good disposition it maketh the man pleasant merry dauncing laughing content amiable gracious of good conuersation and a little ielous If vnfortunate it maketh the man frowning and too merry of euill maintenaunce vsing dishonest words giuen to voluptuousnes and ielous of that which belongeth not vnto him If Mercurie bee fortunate it gyues good vnderstanding good memorie great perseuerance great subtiltie of spyrite good discourse of reason full of wit very apt to know the Mathematicals and the secretes of nature it makes the man a Poet an Orator well spoken writing well and a great trader If it be euill disposed it makes him presumpteous of little knowledge with great estimation of his person inconstant a lyer a mocker a deceiuer ordinarily fine fantasticall and vicious If it be the Moone that is fortunate shee maketh him that is borne pacified modest of good hart or good will and easie to endure any thing that one will doe Vnfortunate doth shew inconstancie lightnes of spyrite faint-harted prodigall faythlesse If the sayde signifiers are not greatly fortunate or vnfortunate it is conuenient to rebate the sayde significations good and vicious after the qualitie of theyr good and euill dispositions If any Planet be participant in the signification of the manners or if it haue great communication of aspect with the principall significator then considering the vices and vertues of him that according to his good or euill disposition wee doe ioyne them to him which gyueth the principall As if Saturne well disposed be principal significator and Mars infortunate be participant or regarde Saturne of one whole aspect with reception then it is conuenient to mingle some little of the nature of Mars vnfortunate with the significations of Saturue fortunate The Astrologians doe aduertise vs that if the Lord of the ascendant be well placed and the saide significator of manners euill disposed you must more consider vppon that which the Lord of the ascendant signifieth then vppon that which the said significator doth promise Moreouer they consider more particulerly the place of Mercurie and of the Moone and the aspect which they receiue If Mercurie be in the ascendant it maketh the Man ingenious and of great and profounde knowledge a great Phylosopher a Mathematician an Orator a Poet a Diuine principally wheÌ„ he is in the place in the which Saturne hath at the least 4. dignities or when he receiues aspect of Saturne Mercury in the twelfth receiuing aspect of
