obscure Complexion black Hair or of a sad brown and one of an ill Disposition a malicious treacherous sottish person one that gains very little love by his Neighbours In Sagittary she describes one of a middle stature and a well-proportioned person of a sanguine Complexion an oval Visage and light brown Hair she signifies one a little cholerick easily angred but soon pleased again ambitious of honour and a very obliging person In Capricorn she represents one of a spare lean Body and a little stature sad brown or black Hair and often they have some defect in the Knees one given to drinking and to womens company and an idle person delighting in no good exercises In Aquarius she represents a person of a middle stature and a well-composed corpulent Body a sanguine Complexion and brown Hair he is of a courteous Disposition and of an ingenious searching fancy delighting in moderate recreations and a hater of all evil actions whereby he is beloved of all persons In Pisces she represents one of a low stature and pale Complexion the Body somewhat inclined to fatness the Hair of a bright brown she shews an idle person delighting in no good actions and unfortunate in most of his under takings But herein you are to consider how the Planets are aspected for if the Moon be in a good Aspect of the Fortunes it mitigates her evil signification and so also consider of the rest of the Planets in like manner CHAP. VI. Of the Houses Antiscions Friendship and Enmity and of the Orbs and Latitude of the Seven Planets THe Seven Planets by experience are found to delight in some of the Twelve Signes more than in others as being more agreable to their nature and therefore they are termed their Houses because they are more fortunately placed therein than in the rest of the Signes Each of the Seven Planets except Sol and Luna have two of the Signes allowed for their Houses As to Saturn Capricorn and Aquarius to Jupiter Sagittary and Pisces to Mars Aries and Scorpio to Sol Leo to Venus Taurus and Libra to Mercury Gemini and Virgo to Luna Cancer and in these Signes they are the best fortified But although all the Planets except the Luminaries have two Signes allowed them for their Houses yet they are found to take more delight in one of the Houses than in the other viz. Saturn delights most in Aquarius Jupiter in Sagittary Mars delights most in Scorpio Venus delights most in Taurus and Mercury delights most in Virgo The Artist ought chiefly to understand the Houses of the Planets their Characters and the Characters of the Signes before he proceed to any Judgement to which I leave him and proceed to the Antiscions and Contranscions of the Planets Of the Antiscions and Contrantiscions of the Planets The Antiscions of the Planets are no more than when two Planets are equally distant from the first of either of the two Tropical signes Cancer or Capricorn As suppose Saturn in the 10th degree of Taurus and Jupiter in the 20th degree of Leo here Saturn casts his Antiscion to Jupiter they being both equally distant from the first Punctum of Cancer the Counterantiscions are found by the opposite signes and degrees the Antiscions are allowed to be of the nature of Sextile or Trine Aspects the Contrantiscions of the Planets are equivalent to a Quadrate or Opposition But that the Learner may finde them with more ease be pleased to consider the following Table A Table of the Antiscions in Signes The Antiscions of the ♋ ♊ Planets in Signes ♌ ♉ ♍ ♈ ♎ ♓ ♏ ♒ ♐ ♑ Here you may see a Planet in Cancer sends his Antiscion to Gemini in Leo to Taurus and so of the rest of the signes A Planet in Leo sends his Contrantiscion to Aquaries that being the opposite signe to Leo. And to finde the degree and minute you are to substract the degree and minute your Planet is in from 30 and the remainder shall shew the degree and minute of Antiscion or you may know by the following Table A Table shewing the Antiscion in Degrees and Minutes Planets Antis in degrees The Planets Antiscion in minutes d. d. m. m. m. m. 1 29 1 59 16 44 2 28 2 58 17 43 3 27 3 57 18 42 4 26 4 56 19 41 5 25 5 55 20 40 6 24 6 54 21 39 7 23 7 53 22 38 8 22 8 52 23 37 9 21 9 51 24 36 10 20 10 50 25 35 11 19 11 49 26 34 12 18 12 48 27 33 13 17 13 47 28 32 14 16 14 46 29 31 15 15 15 45 30 30 When you have found the Planets in Signes enter the Degrees in the first Column on the left hand and in the second Column you have the Antiscions in degrees The like in the Table of Minutes As for Example if Jupiter be in 10 degrees 20 minutes of Libra by the first Table I finde his Antiscion falls in Pisces Then in the second Column I enter the Table with degrees and against 10 degrees in the first Column I finde 20 degrees in the second Column Then I enter the Table of minutes and against 20 I finde 40 minutes which shews that Jupiter in 10 degrees 20 minutes of Libra casts his Antiscion to 20 degrees 40 minutes of Pisces And so I proceed to the Friendship and Enmity of the Planets A Table of the Friendship and Enmity of the Planets Planets Friends Enemies Saturn ♃ ☉ ☿ ☽   ♂ ♀   Jupiter ♄ ☉ ♀ ☿ ☽ ♂   Mars ♀   ♄ ♃ ☉ ☿ ☽ Sol ♃ ♂ ♀ ☿ ☽ ♄   Venus ♃ ♂ ☉ ☿ ☽ ♄   Mercury ♄ ♃ ☉ ♀ ☽ ♂   Luna ♃ ☉ ♀ ☿   ♄ ♂   By this Table you may perceive that the Friends of Saturn are Jupiter Sol Mercury and Luna His Enemies are Mars and Vennus The Table is so easie that it needs no farther explanation Of the Planets Orbs.   d. m. Saturn Orbs are 10 0 Jupiter 12 0 Mars 7 30 Sol. 17 0 Venus 8 0 Mercury 7 0 Luna 12 30 The Use of the Table is this When you finde two Planets applying to Aspect yet wanting several degrees of their Partile Aspect they are said to be in Platick Aspect when they are within the moiety of their Orbs. As for Example Suppose Saturn be in 15 degrees of Aries and Venus in 10 degrees of Gemini they are in Platick Aspect for the Orbs of Saturn as you may perceive by the Table are 10 degrees the half of which is 5 degrees The Orbs of Venus are 8 take half of that which is 4 which added to half the Orbs of Saturn makes 9 so they are within the Orbs of a Sextile Aspect when they are 9 degrees distant from their Partile Aspect A Table of the Planets greatest Latitudes   North Lat.   South Lat. d. m. s. d. m. s. The greatest Latitude of Saturn is 2 48 0 is 2 49 0 Jupiter 1 38 0 1 40 0

degree of the third House which are very strong arguments of Mortality A Report or common Rumour whether is it true or false D. H. M. October 17.9.30 P. M. 1674. ☽ from void of course ad ⚹ ♀ Astrological Judgement upon the Figure In this Figure you may behold the Moon Lady of the Ascendant intercepted in the fourth House in Libra a movable Signe and also the Signe ascending is Cancer another movable Signe and Dragons Tail posited therein was one argument that the Report was false Secondly finding the Moon very lately separating from void of Course and within the Orbs of an Opposition of Saturn and both of them Peregrine and Saturn in his Retrograde motion in Quadrate to the Ascendant and to the very degree of Dragons Tail And also finding Mercury Combust of the Sun I told the Querent that the Report was false and that it would be proved false within very few days and so it was Shall the Querent have a good Journey D. H. M. July 26.19.15 P. M. 1674. Judgement upon the preceding Figure The Ascendant his Lord and the Moon are the Significators of the Querent the third House his Lord and Jupiter who is posited therein doth signifie his intended Journey The signe ascending and the Planets posited in the Ascendant doth give as exact a description of the Querents Stature and Inclination as any Limner in the world can draw or any Tongue or Pen can describe he is moderately tall and straight his Hair black or a dark brown c. he is very much given to study several Arts and Sciences c. In the Figure I finde Venus Lady of the third in Conjunction of Mercury Lord of the Ascendant in the Ascendant in Sextile to Jupiter who is posited in the third House from hence I concluded that the Querent should have a good Journey and finding the Moon in Sextile to Sol and he posited in the eleventh I told the Querent that he would finde a Friend in his Journey which might do him some kindness which he did as he hath often related since And also finding Mercury Lord of the tenth in the Ascendant I asked the Querent if he did not expect some Office or Preferment by his Journey he said that was the principal cause of his undertaking his Journey c. CHAP. IV. Of the Fourth House and Questions belonging thereunto FRom this House is Judgement given of possessions of Lands Houses and of Treasure hid in the Earth c. Shall the Querent buy or purchase the House or Land enquired after Herein you are to give the Ascendant his Lord and the Moon to be the Significators of the Querent the fourth House his Lord and the Planets posited therein to signifie the Houses Lands or Closes which are enquired after The seventh House his Lord and the Planets posited therein are the Significators of the Seller or Owner of the Lands or Houses If you finde the Lord of the seventh House applying to the Lord of the Ascendant by Body or good Aspect you may judge the Quesited hath a desire to bargain with the Querent If you finde the Lord of the eighth House Peregrine or Combust or with Dragons Tail or in Conjunction Quadrate or Opposition to Saturn or Mars without reception you may conclude that the Seller doth part with his Land for want of Money or if you finde Saturn Mars or Dragons-tail Peregrine in the eighth you may pass the same Judgement Testimonies affirmative If you finde the Moon or Lord of the Ascendant in the fourth or Lord of the fourth in the Ascendant or if the Moon or Lord of the Ascendant apply to the Lord of the fourth by Conjunction Sextile or Trine if the Lord of the fourth apply to the Lord of the Ascendant by Body or good Aspect and they in their Essential dignities or in the dignities of each other these are very great Arguments that the Querent shall purchase the House or Lands desired If the Moon or any other Planet transfer the light and vertue of the Lord of the Ascendant to the Lord of the fourth or from the Lord of the fourth to the Lord of the Ascendant the Bargain will be brought on by such a person as the transferring Planet shall signifie Testimonies negative But if you finde none of the aforesaid testimonies in your figure of Heaven but on the contrary you finde the aforesaid Significators in Quadrate or Opposition without Reception or Translation of light and vertue you may conclude the Querent shall not purchase the Houses or Land desired Of the quality or goodness of the House or Land enquired after In the resolution of this Question you are to consider the fourth House and Planets posited therein and also the Lord of the fourth his Possession and Configuration If you finde Saturn Mars or Dragons tail Peregrine in the fourth or Lord of the fourth Combust Peregrine or Retrograde afflicted by the malevolent Aspects of the Infortunes the thing enquired after is in no good condition at present nor of long continuance If the fortunate Planets viz. Jupiter Venus or Dragons-head be in the fourth House and the Lord of the fourth strong in his Essential dignities or in good Aspect of the Fortunes it shews the House or Land enquired after to be in a very good condition and that the Querent shall be a gainer by his purchase Jupiter or Venus in Sextile or Trine to the fourth House or the Lord of the fourth casting his Sextile or Trine to the second House or his Lord or to a Planet in the second House it is an argument that the Querent shall be a gainer by the House or Land enquired after If you finde a fiery signe upon the Cusp of the fourth House viz. Aries Leo Sagittary you may judge the Land or Closes is hilly ground hard and dry If earthy signes as Taurus Virgo or Capricorn it shews good ground and plain level Closes If Gemini Libra or Aquarius the ground is not very plain but hath some Hills in it If watry signes viz. Cancer Scorpio Pisces it shews the ground to be very good if there be not too much Water in it c. Whether is it good for the Querent to hire or take the House or Farm desired or not Herein the Ascendant his Lord and the Moon are for the Querent the seventh and the Lord thereof are the Significators of the person which hath the letting of the House or Farm enquired after the tenth House and his Lord signifieth the profit or benefit which the Querent shall attain by his purchase the fourth House shall signifie the House or Farm enquired after If you finde the Lord of the Ascendant posited in the 4th or the Lord of the Ascendant or Luna casting their Sextiles or Trines to the degree ascending or if you finde Part of Fortune in the Ascendant free from the malevolent rays of the Infortunes it is an argument that the

separating from the Lord of the 10th and applying to the Lord of the Ascendant either by body or good aspect it denotes the same When the Significators do not behold each other but by Quadrate or Opposition without Reception it shews the preferment sought after will not be obtained Saturn or Mars in the 10th afflicting the Lord of the Ascendant or the Moon or if Dragons Tail be in the 10th it denotes very little hopes to the Querent of obtaining the office dignity or preferment desired Shall the Querent continue in the Office or Employment he possesses The Lord of the Ascendant or the Moon in the 10th in any of their Essential dignities free from Combustion or from the malevolent rays of the Infortunes it shews the Querent shall continue in the Office or Employment which he possesses If the Moon or Lord of the Ascendant be applying to a Sextile or Trine of the Lord of the 10th or the Lord of the 10th applying to Conjunction Sextile or Trine of the Lord of the Ascendant especially if it be with Reception you may be confident the Querent will continue in his Place or Office c. Sol Jupiter or Venus in the 10th in any of their Essential dignities and free from the malevolent rays of the Infortunes and in good aspect to the Lord of the Ascendant or Luna or to a Planet in the Ascendant signifies the same But if you finde the Lord of the Ascendant or Luna in Quadrate or Opposition of the Lord of the 10th without Reception you may judge the Querent will lose his Office c. And if at the same time you finde some other Planet applying to a Sextile or Trine of the Lord of the 10th it is an argument that such a person signified by that Planet is endeavouring his prejudice in the business and will probably get his Office or place of Preferment from him If you finde the Lord of the Ascendant or the Moon Combust or separating from a good aspect of the Lord of the 10th or from Sol and soon after applying to a Quadrate or Opposition of the Infortunes it signifies the Querent shall lose his place or Office c. What Profession is best for the Querent to follow When this Question is thus propounded you are to give the Ascendant his Lord and Luna to signifie the Querent and take the Lord of the 10th together with Mars and Venus to signifie the Trade or Profession the Querent is capable to undertake Then consider what Signes you finde the Significators posited in or the greater part of them If they be posited in fiery Signes it is an argument the Querent may do well in any profession relating to the Fire according to the capacity of Birth and quality If he be able he may undertake the profession of a Chymist Physician Goldsmith Silversmith Jeweller or Apothecary but if he be of mean parentage he may make a good Armourer Smith Cutler c. If the Significators be posited in aereal Signes the Querent will make a good Lawyer Geometrician Arithmetician Surveyor Scrivener Clerk or Astronomer c. but if he be of a mean condition he will be fit for a Millener a Painter Draper or the like If you finde the aforesaid Significators posited in earthly Signes it is an argument the Querent may make a good Country-Farmer Husbandman Grasier Gardiner Carpenter Collier Carter Brick-maker Butcher Shoomaker Shepherd Day-labourer c. When you finde the Significators in watry Signes it is most proper for the Querent to trade in things belonging to the Water or to be a Beer-brewer Vintner Fishmonger or Sailor Water-man c. If you finde the Lord of the Ascendant in good aspect with the Lord of the 10th or the Moon or Lord of the Ascendant in Sextile or Trine to Mars or Venus it is an argument the Querent shall profit and do well in the Trade or Profession he shall follow The Lord of the Ascendant or Luna in the 10th in Reception with the Lord of the 10th or if you finde fortunate Planets in the 10th in good aspect to the Lord of the Ascendant or Luna it denotes the same But if on the contrary you finde the aforesaid Significators in Quadrate or Opposition with the Lord of the Ascendant or Luna or either of them Combust or otherwise afflicted it signifies the Querent shall not gain by the Profession intended Shall the Querent obtain the place of preferment desired ☽ d vac ad ⚹ ☉ 1674. Resolution of this Figure The Querent propounded this question to me Shall I obtain the place of Preferment desired whereupon I erected the Figure and finding Mercury Lord of the 10th posited in the Ascendant in Virgo his own House and Mercury no ways afflicted I told the Querent he should attain the preferment desired in a very short time and without much difficulty Also finding Mercury so near the Sextile of Jupiter I told the Querent that a person signified by Jupiter who he was well acquainted with would be his friend in that business I described Jupiter what person he signified whom he knew very well who went along with him within two days after and he obtained his desire at the same time CHAP. XI Of the Eleventh House and Questions thereunto belonging Shall the Querents Friend prove faithful GIve the Ascendant his Lord and the Moon to signifie the Querent the 11th House and Lord thereof are the Significators of the Friend enquired after But if it be one of the Querents Relations you are to take the House which shall signifie him as if it be a Brother the third House and so of the rest But if it be a Friend that is not related to him consider the application of the Lord of the 11th If therefore you finde the Lord of the 11th in Sextile or Trine to the Lord of the Ascendant it is an argument the Querents Friend will prove faithful The Lord of the Ascendant in the 11th no ways afflicted or the Moon in good aspect to the Lord of the 11th it shews his Friend will prove faithful and honest Fortunate Planets in the 11th in good aspect to Luna or Lord of the Ascendant or if there be a mutual Reception between the Lord of the Ascendant and Lord of the 11th it denotes the same The Lord of the 11th in the Ascendant no ways afflicted but strong in his Essential dignities it is an argument the Querents Friend will prove just and faithful to him The Lord of the 11th in Quadrate or Opposition to the Lord of the Ascendant without Reception shews that he will prove false and knavish The Lord of the 11th Peregrine or Combust and in Quadrate or Opposition to the Moon or if the Infortunes be in the 11th and afflict the Lord of the Ascendant or the Moon or Dragons Tail in the 11th it signifies the Querents friend will not prove faithful The Lord of the 11th in Quadrate or Opposition to fortunate
