bring the Horoscope to the Quartile of Mars and in like manner the Moon to the Quartile of Mars and Saturne you shall surely produce the years before nominated Example XII The Brother of the former Borne A. C. 1583. 27. June Ho. 11. Min. 30. Afternoone .1 THe Line of Life troubled by the Intervening of another threatens a Disease about the 20th yeare of his Age And doubtlesse at that time the Direction of the Horoscope comes to the Quartile of Mars so likewise the Progression of the Moone to Saturne himselfe Howbeit this Direction in regard of the presence of Jupiter is not much to be feared 2. The Rule of the Geniture belongs to Saturne and Iupiter Wherefore the Tuberculum of Iupiter affords us overthwart litle Lines but the Tuberculum of Saturne a Star untill the Saturnia also Ascendeth 3. You have likewise the Signatures of Mercury and Venus in their own Places which are now Conjoyned in Leo the Conjunction being not to be despised although it be Platique 4. The three little Lines collocated on the Ferient insinuate Iournies and so doth Mars Lord of the Horoscope in the House of Mercury and the Sun in Cancer 5. The Crosse in the Cavea of Mars increaseth his Martiall Disposition and the Heate of the Liver 6. The Suns Place presenting a Cleft increases his Honours but slowly In the Geniture the Decrees of Dignities are obscure yet the Sun is Angular with the Heads of the Twins 7. The Saturnia being whole promiseth a Happy successe of Events and Actions and so doth the Conjunction of Saturne and Iupiter Dispositors of the 8 9 10 11 and 12. Houses Example XIII A Brother of both the two last Borne A. C. 1577. Nov. 7. Ho. 3. Min. 12. Afternoon This Third Example I lately got at Ritispone 1. THe Saturnia whole although obliquely drawne to its proper Seate shewes that Saturne is Lord of the Geniture Hee descernes not absolutely an Adverse Fortune c. Hither transferre the rest of Saturnes Significations from their proper Place when he is not Infortunatly posited Yet Saturne in the Cuspe of the 10 perturbes the good Fortune of Venus and Iupiter who share in the Rule of this Geniture Mars also in the West Angle and there in a strange Signe denounceth the same which Mischiefes shall be Multiplyed in his Old Age 2. Venus by reason of her North Latitude Resides on the Cuspe of the 7th having the Moone joyned with her in regard of Her South Latitude And therefore their Place tels us of Lines and Markes that be trimme and handsome notwithstanding the Moon 's more Remissely in Regard that shee hasting to the Sun is not Illustrated with Light sufficient 3. Iupiter Direct and in Conjunction with Venus neare unto Spica Virginis adornes his Region with a Little Line that is Decent enough But yet hee is oppressed of Saturne We have often observed that his Conjunction with Venus hath bestowed very Great Riches by Marriage wherewith here agree the Condition of Venus and the Part of Fortune 4. The Via solis showes it selfe in some sort a Friend unto Honors That Planet Angular in Scorpio and with the Scorpions Heart must not be rejected 5. Mercury Retrograde in his Detriment and in the Eight House is accounted very weake Hee is somewhat strengthened of Venus and Iupiter wherefore you see at this time no signature to be found in his Region 6. The Due Breadth of the Mensa differeth not much from this Habit of the Starrs 7. The Crosse above the Restricta promiseth Tranquility in his Old Age But the Saturnia denyes it But seeing that Crosse is made of the Little Line which descendeth from the Vitall and the Region of Venus looke if it bring not Misfortune and strifes by the Meanes of Wives c. The rest are left to every Mans Discretion Neverthelesse we must needs acknowledge that All Incisures are neither here nor elsewhere scrupulously Delineated Example XIV One Borne at Thuringia A. C. 1586. Decemb. 3. Ho. 7. Min. 30. Before Noone Lat. 51. Degrees WE have before in the 5th Example almost the same Position the Distance of their Births is only 5. dayes The Principall Lines doe Agree in Situation and Conformity In the rest there is some yet no very notable difference 1. The Vitall is often Dissected about the End and Midle thereof Wherefore it denotes a Sickly Disposition in his Old Age The two litle Lines vitiating the same by their Transite and Descending upon the Cavea of Mars manifest Martiall Infirmities of the Body about the 50. and 52. yeare of his Age Wounds also in the Head or Feete are then to be feared 2. In like sort Saturne letting fall a Line Obliquely from his Place shall at the same time besprinckle his Poyson wherefore that time shall be full of Misfortunes A Disease also must be expected about the 11th yeare of his Age because the Vitall is there Marked by a touch of the Cephalica the Horoscope comes at that time to the Quartile of Mars 3. The track of the Cephalica extended to the Mensall argues a Ready Wit In the Geniture Mercury is not unhappily posited in the Horoscope in a Trine of Saturne But yet he possesseth a strange signe being likewise oppress'd by the Quartile of Mars whence you see the Region of Mercury but slenderly Marked 4. A Crosse in the Cavea of Mars betokeneth the Quality of Mars and a Heate of the Liver Danger and Wounds in his Journeys In the Figure Mars afflicts the Sun by a Quartile from the 9th House the Moone is also in Square with Saturne 5. That Line which is almost Parallel to the vitall occasioneth many unprofitable Journeys because it is Decurt and Tortuous The two small Lines also so conspicuous upon the Tuberculum of the Moone concerne Journeys Mars in the 9th in the House of Mercury He in the First and the Moon in a Moveable Signe in the Geniture the same 6. Venus and Iupiter doe in some sort manifest their Bounty in their respective Places But in the 5th Example the Mons Iovis is Incult Yet because hee here showes his Assistance from the New-moone preceding the Nativity in Sagittary it will doubtlesse Flow aboundantly so soon as he gets the Principall Dominion Such a strength Iupiter had not before in the 5th Example 7. Furthermore the Virgins Spike with the Dragons Head in the Cuspe of the 10th And likewise Aquila it selfe now Rising in the East do all of them largely contribute Honours the like doth the Positure of the Sun he being in his Triplicity and Angular which gives the two litle Lines on his Mount Example XV The Brother of the former Borne A. C. 1589. Apr. 24. at 4. in the Morning HEre wee give you the different Faces of either Hand 1. In his Right Hand the Epatica is visible but passeth not the Concave thereof And therefore it showes his shortnesse of Life especially because a certaine Line is transversly let fall from the

of Women which very thing the Moone in Cancer and in the 10 House of the Heavens most plainly demonstrates 5. The Lines of Jupiter are somewhat troubled and therefore his Condition is but indifferent yet gives he Honours not contemptible although with some Difficulties some Impediments 6. The Conjunction of Venus and Mercury in the House of Venus and in a Partile Trine of Iupiter is accounted very Fortunate For thereby his Mind is excellently enclined unto all such Arts as are dedicated to Venus and Mercury I see he will prove a most Eloquent Man The two Parallel Lines which are drawn in the Forme of a Scale or Ladder from the Region of Mercury to that of Venus doe clearly manifest this Conjunction and the very same judgement Wee have almost the same Scale or Ladder in the 15. Example which gave that Native the Benefit of a voluble Tongue and a quick Pronunciation 7. Saturne hath Ominous Signatures upon his Tuberculum intimating wounds and other grievous Accidents And the Line which runneth underneath the same from the Thorall to the Concave of the Hand threatens a fall from an High Place or Drowning The same is Denounced by the Sun in the Geniture who is Afflicted of Saturne by his Conjunction with him neare to the Hyades Mars Lord of the Eight House being in his Detriment 8. The Vitall is thrice touched First by a Line running from the Cephalica but because it breaks not the Vitall wee suppose the Disease thereby signifyed will not be so grievous as otherwise the Moon comes by Direction to the Quartile of Mars about the 18 yeare of his Age Besides the Progresse of the Horoscope to the Body of Mars about the 47 yeare will agree to the other Incisures And lastly the Progression of the Moon to the Square of Saturne about the 54. year in all which years the Native must take heed of a violent Death 9. The Mensa excellently Rased confirmes the goodnesse of Wit and temperament and the continuance of a plentifull Fortune c. But here it is to be Noted by every one Desirous of this knowledge that in the precedent Examples the Incisures and small Lines are not all of them Delineated partly for that they were excedingly slender and partly because they could not be described so accuratly as requisite Besides we must observe that even of those Lines which wee have posited some ought to be more obscure and slender others more cleare and Conspicuous and therefore good Caution must be had when we would apply them to other Examples The skill of the Engraver can never follow the Forme of the Lines so precisely as they present themselves in the Hand Moreover we have often omitted some Accommodations in the Geniture lest their significations as considered in themselves might Nauseat the Readers Example XIX Now that I may performe the present Taske by a more Commendable Example I shall annex the whole judgement of the Geniture to the Practique of Chiromancy as I delivered the same almost Two years agoe to a certain Saxon a Friend of mine He was Borne in the yeare of Christ 1561. January 17. Ho. 13. Min. 35. Sec. 40. Afternoon in the Latitude 54. degr. 45. Min. HEre are Five Planets excellently well Plac'd in their own Prerogatives Saturn and Mercury Received from Houses and Locally in their own Triplicity So Iupiter and Mars assume a just Power by their Reception of Houses Venus also is in her Exaltation and in the Angle of the Earth Lastly the Moon is in her Triplicity But shee having not as yet obtained her due Light from the Sun is here very Silent Mercury and Saturne are notably united by a Trine The Part of Fortune Rises with the Scorpions Heart Venus and Iupiter are the Prime Rulers of the Geniture Saturne and Mercury Participating c. 1. A Long-Life is conjectured from the Horoscope and the Luminaries being not impedite although the Moon be opposite by the Quartile of Mars yet the Progresse of the Horoscope is first to the Opposition of Saturne whereof anon 2. His temperature excells by an Equall Mixture of Humors because he receiveth his Ferment chiefly from the Perfusion of Iupiter and Venus Saturne and Mercury besprinkling a Melancholy juice 3. Hence the Force of Discerning and Representing vulgarly called the Phantasy breatheth nothing but what is Moderate and Agreeable to Reason For Iupiter maketh such as are borne under him Honest Just Wise and addicted to Quiet and Peaceable Counsells doing alwayes that which is Right and Honest both in judging and Adviseing such also as are very Desirous of Praise and Renowne yet in gaining the same recede not from their Naturall Modesty and Temper neither from good Arts whereby Honour and true Glory are wont to be obtained But because Saturne and Mercury are both excellently well placed in respect of their Reception and Partile Trine they also doe largely bestow their vertues they make the Native exceeding diligent in his Arts and Affaires so that in administring them hee useth singular Sedulity and Care they cause him to search after secret things and make it his study for to Penetrate Hidden Mysteries to finde out the Causes of Naturall things to understand the Civill Lawes and to unfold Mens secrets Generally such Men as are addicted to all manner of Sciences Venus the chiefe that participates in the Rule of the Geniture occasions such Commotions of the Native as be Delightfull Merry Pleasant yet so as that he studyeth Good Workes and Friendships whereof he is most observant and hereby becomes gratefull to all Men He abhors all Filthy but is taken with cleanly things comely Gestures decent Attires Ornaments and Elegance 4. Venus therefore and Iupiter doe Promise great Felicity in Affaires both Civill and Ecclesiasticall 5. There are most evident testimonies of an Excellent Ingenuity 1 Mercury in Aquarius doth of him selfe suscitate the strength thereof 2. Besides there is a Reception from Houses and a Partile Trine betwixt Him and Saturne 3. Venus Angular doth the like 4. Especially for that the Moone and the Dragons Head are together in the same Angle 5. Mercury and the Moone are Asyntheti Pure and not vitiated yet both behold the Horoscope she by a Platique Trine He by a Partile Quadrature 6. Iupiter Lord of the Second Direct in Motion and Received of Mars plainly Assures an abundance of Wealth The Part of Fortune most excellently augments this signification the same being posited in the second where he is Disposed of and Aspected by Iupiter These Riches take their Encrease from services faithfully performed from most Eminent Honours and Dignities and they more aboundantly in the third or last Age 7. Mercury Lord of the 10 and having convenient society with Saturne presages Dignities not obscure We have spoken before concerning the Dominion of Iupiter and Venus wherefore seeing they equally share the Rule of the Geniture How can it be that they should not reward the Native with some or other most

eminent Dignities 8. Your Neighbours or Kindred shall sometimes occasion your Dammage in household Goods or Affaires and you shall expend very much in Building 9. Mars Lord of the 6. ingendereth Hot Infirmities yet they not so vehement because of Iupiter's Interposition Moreover Mars in Sagitary causeth most commonly a gravell in the Joynts of the Feete If he be found in that Signe and in the Sixth hee inevitably brings the Gout the paines whereof are not to be taken away but by the Influence of Sagittary Pisces c. deduced from Heaven it selfe c. Some other Remedies also may doe much yet not any that are got by Common Artifice 10. Your Death will be Naturall by the meanes of some Chronicall Infirmity proceeding chiefly from Saturne such as are Distillations upon the Jawes the Breast the Lungs Splene c. Howbeit Old Age is a Disease and an Easy Passage unto Death it self 11. The Sun and Moone disposing of the 9. House doe discerne Honourable journeys Mercury well posited in the Third occasioneth Journeys undertaken for the Cause of Honours and Dignities and to Persons most Honourable for Learning and Dignities Civill and Ecclesiasticall 12. Venus Lady of the 11 concerneth a Multitude of the best Friends yet Mars beholding Venus by a Quartile shall stirre up the envy of some Persons sowing oftentimes Dissention and inverting all goodnesse 13. Venus shall give you victory over your Enemies whereof indeed there are but a few denounced because she is Lady of the 7. Angular and in her Exaltation 14. Your Marriage shall be Fortunate as to an Affluence of Riches yet herein beware of the Faithlesse Brawling and Luxurious Quadrature of Mars But this very much depends upon Mans Free-will and young Men oft-times finde themselves at a losse through their Ignorance and Rashnesse We will now consider the Signes of the Foure Angles 15. Scorpio Ascending gives the Natives an Elegant Acutenesse of Wit Plenty of Discourse It also often Instilleth Great vices Infidelity Envy Covetousnesse Ingratitude which Learning and Right Reason Exterminate 16. Virgo Culminating is wont to Raise the Native to Magistracy It conferrs a tolleration of Great Authority It transferres many Benefits to others from whom it returnes not the like Favour 17. Taurus in the West-Angle presents you with such Adversaries as at length hee will see oppressed by sundry kinds of Misfortunes He there incites you to Love Luxury Delights and Jeasting 18. Pisces posited in the Fourth indue the Minds of the Natives with much Faith Integrity and Dexterity of Wit whereby they gaine great Authority in their Administrations they delight to Walke and Dwell neare Rivers But almost abhorre uxorious Matters The Planets in the Houses of Heaven 19. The Sun in the Third presages Journeys in the Causes of Honours and Dignities He brings a Mutation of Places and Honour in Forraigne parts 20. Mercury there well posited renders a Man most Learned in every Science whereof I could produce innumerable Examples those shall invent many things by their own Ingenuity they are Fortunate in Church Matters Writing and Merchandize 21. Venus most excellently well collocated in the Fourth will give you Large Possessions and Habitations chiefly in your Last Age she declares the Period of your Life Honourable and Praise-worthy 22. Mars in the First and there not Infortunate makes a Man Couragious Rash and somewhat Angry sometimes he presageth Wounds in the Head and Face 23. Iupiter in the 5. doth sometimes conferre the Great Rewards of Great Men He makes a Man Fortunate in Embassies 24. Saturne thus excellently seated in the 8. gives many inheritances He threatens death by Catharres A Cough c. and oftentimes by the Plague The Planets in the Signes 25. The Sun in the House of Saturne makes the vitall vertue more Robust and as it were more Compact whence hee gives a Longer Life then ordinary 26. The Moone in the House of Iupiter promotes all things that are good yet being here Afflicted by the Quartile of Mars exciteth some strifes in Possessions often reiterateth small Fevers 27. Saturne in the House of Mercury gives a Profound Wit Occult Sciences 28. Iupiter in the House of Mars indifferently well Affected makes one victorious 29. The same is signified by Mars in the Mansion of Iupiter Thus they both of them render the Native very gracious with Princes and Noblemen and under them to have Authority 30. Venus in the House of Iupiter bestowes many Benefits either by the meanes of Women or of some Ecclesiasticall preferments She makes you Discreet Honest Healthfull sometimes she occasioneth strife and falling out with your Neighbours and some of your Friends for that Venus is expos'd to the Quadrature of Mars 31. Mercury in the House of Saturne gives alwayes a profound Wit and a Man that is greedy of all Sciences The Lords of the Houses 32. The Lord of the Horoscope received of Iupiter from Houses plainly declares a Generous Mind 33. The Lord of the Second in the Fifth increaseth your Wealth through Rewards bestowed by Great Men 34. The Lord of the Third in the Eight occasioneth Journeys either on the behalfe of some that are Dead or by reason of the Plague He often destroyes Elder Brothers 35. The Lord of the 4. in the 5. makes you Fortunate in Tillage or Navigations 36. The Lord of the 5. in the 4. brings Gladnesse and Delight to you from things that be Immoveable as the Building of goodly Houses and the tillage of sweet and pleasant Gardens And here Venus undoubtedly confirmes that Portent because such things are contained under her Dominion 37. Mars Lord of the 6. in the First excites many hot Infirmities but this is qualified by the Reception of Iupiter 38. The Lord of the 7. in the 4. presageth strifes about the Father or Wives Inheritance and this the rather for that he is most cruelly Afflicted of Mars 39. The Lord of the 8. in the 3. showes that the Native shall survive all his Brothers Hee often designeth Death in a Forraigne Countrey 40. The Lord of the 9. in the 3. occasions Journeys for the Cause of Dignities 41. The Lord of the 10. in the 3. and there excellently well Placed makes the Native more Honourable then the rest of his Brethren 42. The Lord of the 11. in the 4. denotes a Second Fortune in Goods that be Immoveable especially in Old-Age 43. The Lord of the 12. in the 4. Displeasures and strifes for Possessions and Church-Goods These may be sufficient in Generall Iudgements Now if we will Consider the Principall Lines of the Hand we shall every where finde the same things signifyed notwithstanding that we have curtailed the Decrees of the Significators We told you Experience her self bearing witnesse that the lesse Principall Lines are changed at a certaine time according to the Progressions of the Celestiall Places and Starres who are Significators whereby it comes to passe that we may best judge of any thing from them either when they appeare
