be so she will miscarry If you would know whether a woman shall bring forth a man-child or a woman-child behold the Ascendent and his Lord which if he be masculine and in a masculine Sign or in a masculine quarter of the Figure it is a male-child but if the Lord of the Ascendent be feminine and in a feminine Sign or in a feminine quarter of the Circle it will be a woman child and so you shall consider also of the Moon Consider also if more of the Planets be in masculine Signes then it will be a male-child and if many Planets be in feminine Signes then it is a female-child And if you would know whether the child be legitimate or adulterate see if Saturn Mars or the Dragons Tail be in the fifth or with the Lord of the fifth because if it be so it is adulterate but if a good Planet shall be there it is legitimate and if the Lord of the first be in the fifth or with his Lord it is legitimate and so likewise if the Lord of the fifth be found in the first or with the Lord of the first If you desire to know whether rumours be true or false see if you finde Saturn Mars or the Dragons Tail in the Ascendent because if they be so then the rumours are false but if you finde the Sun Jupiter or the Dragons Head there then they are true and if there be masculine Planets in masculine Signes and feminine Planets in feminine Signes then they are true and if both good and evil Planets be there then they are partly true and partly false and if there be a good Sign with the Planet it testifies the truth and if the Planet fall with an evil Sign then it is false likewise if Mercury be in the first the news is false but if the Moon be in the first in a feminine Sign or joyned with the Lord of the Ascendent in a feminine Sign then the rumours are true also if good Planets be in the first fifth or ninth and feminine Signes they are true but if otherwise they are not If you would know whether any one that is absent will return and when see the Lord of the Ascendent and the first which if you finde them together for certain he will come and is now beginning his Journey Likewise if the Lord of the fifth be in the first or with the Lord of the first and if he be in his fall the messenger is sick in his way but if the Lord of the fifth be exalted then he cometh joyfully And if he be in a cadent Sign he shall be grievously afflicted with sickness or shall die If you would know if he bringeth that with him for which he went or not behold the Lord of the seventh which if he be good he bringeth that which he sought for and if he be in his fall or an evil Planet be there he bringeth nothing with him Questions of the sixth House WHether the sick shall recover his health or die If the Question be concerning his sickness see if Saturn or Mars or the Dragons Tail be in the first and whether his Lord be joyned with an evil Planet then he shall die soon And if the Lord of the first be good and evil Planets be in the first with his Lord or likewise in the first or the eighth for certain he will die But if the Lord of the first be in the eighth or with the Lord of the eighth or the Lord of the eighth in the first or with the Lord of the first there is doubt of his death And if evil Planets do possess the Angles evil and destruction is threatned to the sick But if good Planets shall be in the first sixth and eighth and likewise in the Angles and the Lord of the first be from the eighth and his Lord then the sick person shall live and recover his health If you desire to know whether he will be cured by medicines give the first House to the Physitian the tenth to the sick the seventh to his diseases and the fourth to the medicines If evil Planets be in the first the Physitian shall profit him nothing but they testifie that this will be worse for the diseased but the Fortunes do signifie that he shall be profitable to him And if evil Planets do occupy the tenth House the sick person is the cause for they testifie that he himself is the cause of his own disease but the Fortunes being there signifie the contrary But if evil Planets be in the tenth House they change the condition of the sick out of one disease into another but the Fortunes being there do deliver him without the help of Physitians or medicines Also evil Planets being in the fourth do testifie that the medicines do augment his grief and the Fortunes being there do mitigate and heal him If thou wouldst know if thou shalt go unto the person and heal him consider the place then for if he shall be with Saturn Mars or the Dragons Tail or * R * with the Sun go not unto him but if Jupiter Venus or the Dragons Head be in the first or in the seventh go for it will be good and if there be the Moon with a good Planet go and give him physick but if she shall be with an evil Planet and especially in the seventh House then thou shalt not go because thou shalt profit him nothing and if there be good Planets there go and look diligently to him where or in what members he suffers because Aries hath the head Taurus the neck Cancer the breast and lungs Leo the heart and stomack Virgo the belly and intestines Libra the reins and loyns Scorpio the secret members Sagittary the thighs Capricorn the knees Aquary the legs and Pisces the feet Questions of the seventh House FOr theft look unto the Lord of the seventh which if he be in the first the theft shall be restored again but if the Lord of the first be in the seventh it shall be a long time sought after and at length shall be found but if the Moon be in the first or with his Lord it shall be found if the Moon be in the fifth or with the Lord of the first or * R * in the first it may be found but if the Sun and the Moon be in the fifth and if the Lord of the eighth be with the Lord of the first with the first it shall be found but if the Lord of the second be in the eighth it shall not be found And if Saturn or Mars or the Dragons Tail be in the second it shall not be found nor be altogether lost And if the Lord of the second be in the first the thing that is lost shall be found but it shall not be known from whence it came If the Lord of the first be in the second it may be found after much labour And if the Lord of the second be in his fall it
