admits of the moity of each Planets Orbs. The Orbs of the Planets are thus understood viz. ♄ 9 Degrees ♃ 9 Degrees ♂ 8 Degrees ☉ 17 Degrees ♀ 7 Degrees ☿ 7 Degrees ☽ 12 Degrees Thus you see the Orbs of ♄ is 9 Degrees the half of which is 4 degr 30 min. the Orbs of ☉ is 17 Degrees the half thereof is 8 Degrees 30 Minutes this being added together makes 13 Degrees which tells you that when ♄ and ☉ are within 13 Degrees of a ☌ ⚹ □ △ or ☍ to each other they are said to be in a platick Aspect now if they are applying to the Aspect the good or evil thereby signified is not yet come to a perfect birth but if they be seperating then it is over I mean the heat thereof but it will be visable although in a declining condition till they are 13 Degrees separated and then it will wholly disappear you must likewise know that Aspects are dexter and sinister therefore view the folowing Table Sinister Aspects The 12 Signs Dexter Aspects   △ □ ⚹ ⚹ □ △ ☍ ♌ ♋ ♊ ♈ ♒ ♑ ♐ ♎ ♍ ♌ ♋ ♉ ♓ ♒ ♑ ♏ ♎ ♍ ♌ ♊ ♈ ♓ ♒ ♐ ♏ ♎ ♍ ♋ ♉ ♈ ♓ ♑ ♐ ♏ ♎ ♌ ♊ ♉ ♈ ♒ ♑ ♐ ♏ ♍ ♋ ♊ ♉ ♓ ♒ ♑ ♐ ♎ ♌ ♋ ♊ ♈ ♓ ♒ ♑ ♏ ♍ ♌ ♋ ♉ ♈ ♓ ♒ ♐ ♎ ♍ ♌ ♊ ♉ ♈ ♓ ♑ ♏ ♎ ♍ ♋ ♊ ♉ ♈ ♒ ♐ ♏ ♎ ♌ ♋ ♊ ♉ ♓ ♑ ♐ ♏ ♍ Here you see a Planet in ♈ casteth his ⚹ sinister to ♊ his □ sinister to ♋ and his △ sinister to ♌ his ⚹ dexter to ♒ his □ to ♑ and his △ dexter to ♐ the ☍ cannot be said to dexter or sinister however you see it falls in ♎ CHAP.

VI. Of the Division of the Heavens into 12 Equal Parts THe whole Globe is first and principally divided into four equal parts by two great Circles the Meridian and Horizon the Horizon divideth the Heavens into two Hemispheres the North and South called the upper and lower Hemisphere The Meridian cutteth the Heavens into two equal parts also viz. East and West called the oriental and occidental parts thereof Every one of these are again divided into three equal parts more by Circles of Position which intersect the Equator and do likewise meet in the Points of Section of the grand Meridian with the Horizon Thus are the Heavens equally divided into 12 Parts which the Learned have called Mansions or Houses Oriental Houses are the 3 2 1 12 11 and 10. Occidental Houses are the 9 8 7 6 5 and 4. The 1st 10th 7th and 4th Houses are Angles The 11th 5th 8th and 2d are succedent Houses The 12th 9th 6th and 3d are cadent Houses Houses opposite to each other are the 1 and 7 2 and 8 3 and 9 4 and 10 5 and 11 6 and 12. The upper Hemisphere containeth the 12 11 10 9 8 and 7th Houses The lower Hemisphere have the 6 5 4 3 2 and 1st Houses A Scheme or Figure of the Heavens The Lines that the Figures stand by shew the entring or Cusp of each House The 1st 12th and 11th Houses signifies Child-hood The 10th 9th and 8th youth or young people Th 7th 6th and 5th man-hood The 4th 3d and 2d old age The use that may be made hereof is this if in a Figure of a Revolution of any year of the World Eclipse great Conjunction c. You find the Lord of the Ascendant in the 11th afflicted by the Lord of the 8th You may judge there will be a great Death or Mortallity among Children or such as are under 15 years of Age but you must also have respect to the Planet for ♄ signifies old people ♃ ♂ and ☉ such as are in the prime of their Age ♀ and ☿ Youth ♄ in her first quarter Children in the second Youth in the third Man-hood and in her last quarter those that are well in years CHAP. VII To erect a Figure of the Heavens for any hour of the day or night by a Table of Houses IN erecting a Figure you must be advised in these things First be sure you are furnished with a Table of Houses fitted for the Latitude of the place you intend to erect your Figure in Secondly Consider the Year Month day of the month day of the Week the hour and minute of the day Thirdly You must have by you in a readiness an Ephemeris or Almanack that have the true places of the Planets Fourthly In your Ephemeris for that year and in the Month against the day find the place of the Sun in Signs Degrees and Minutes at Noon Fifthly Have recourse to your Table of Houses and seek the Sun's place under the 10th House then take the hour minute and second that stands right against it under the title time from noon and add it to the hour and minute of the day or night you erect your Figure for with which Sum enter the Table of Houses again if it exceed not 24 hours but if it do deduct 24 hours from it and with the remainder enter the Table under time from noon against it in a right Line you will have the Cusp of the 10 11 12 1 2 and 3 Houses and then upon their opposite Houses place the opposite Signs Degrees and Minutes This being done find by the Ephemeris the places of all the Planets at the day proposed and set each one of them in his proper place in the Figure Where note if the degr and min. of the Planets place be more than the Cusp of the House possessed by the Sign he is in you must set him over the Cusp in the House but if his degr and min.

By William Knight Student in Astrology and Physick Foelix qui potuit rerum cognoscere causas LONDON Printed by E. T. and R. H. for Thomas Passinger at the Three Bibles on London Bridge 1681. OF REVOLUTIONS CHAP. I. SECTION I. Teaching how many Schemes ought to be erected for this purpose and for what time they are to be set I Shall not dispute the various Opinions of Authors about this business but wholly adhere to the Judgment and Precepts of Ptolomy who was Princeps Astro●ogo●um which is that we should erect Schemes for the punctual times that the Sun enters the four Cardinal Signs viz. ♈ ♋ ♎ and ♑ and from thence deduce a judgment of that years affairs that is thus from the Position of Heaven at his ingress into ♈ we are to judge of the Accidents of the Spring Quarter which is from the 10th of March until the 11th of June at which time he enters ♋ from whence judgment must be drawn of the Summer Quarter or until he enters ♎ which is about the 13th of September from the Figure whereof we are to judge the events of Autumn or the Harvest Quarter and lastly by the Position of Heaven at his ingress into ♑ we may know the state of the Winter Quarter that is from the 11th of December until he enters ♈ again However you ought in a general way to prefer and esteem the Scheme of his ingress into ♈ above all the rest For the Ancients have affirmed that the Sun was placed in this very Sign and in the first punctum thereof at the Creation where he began his unwearied course in the Meridian of Mesopotamia Therefore must the Position of Heaven at the time of his return thereunto every year be the Principal Piller on which we are to build our Astrological Judgment of Mundane Affairs and this we need not cavil at if we do but consider that he is sons vitae the Fountain of Life fons lucis the Fountain of Light or anima mundi the Soul of the World by which all things as well Vegetatives as Sensitives have their subsistence and vivifying nourishment Again experience crams us with belief that this affirmation of the Ancients is an undeniable truth First we see that when the Sun 〈…〉 this Equinoctial Sign the Earth and 〈◊〉 grow green and ●r●ctifie by degrees afterwards the birds warble forth their sweet and melodious Tunes and all Creatures rejoyce Secondly we find the Actions and Affairs of the World correspond with the Face of Heaven at this time SECTION II. Of the Lord of the Year The Lord of the Year is that Planet who is almuten of the Ascendent at the Sun's ingress into ♈ CHAP. II. Of the significations of the Planets when they are Rulers of the Year SECTION I. Of ♄ when strong THe People will that year build New Houses and alter and repair their Old they will be fortunate in all their worldly Employments and be in good esteem among their Neighbours the Earth shall be fruitful so that the Farmers or Countrey-men will increase in Substance and the poor Day-labourer have little cause to complain But if he be weak Then instead of building and repairing their Houses they may be forced to sell or morgage them There will be much cold weather People shall be sorrowful crossed and vexed in their undertakings grievous infirmities will be spread abroad dammage by Storms and Tempests Hurricanes Earth-quakes Ancient People will die and the Winter pinching cold SECTION II. Of ♃ when strong Noblemen Judges Councellors and all such Persons signified by him shall be succesful and they will do justice too which as
a good thing besides they shall be lively contented honoured and esteemed by the People Sure they cannot chuse but be contented then a peaceable fruitful and pleasant year may now be expected all kind of weather in its due season and the commonallity in a thriving condition But if weak Then judge clean contrary Jovialists will be prodigal and domineering windy and moist weather will come oftner than welcome c. SECTION III. Of ♂ when strong People shall be fortunate bold and active they will overcome their Enemies and trample on all their devices the Weather warm and seasonable But if weak Then men will be quarrelsome given to War Duels and the like yet the Fomenters of such subject to come off with small credit or honour the Weather will be untemperate hot bloomy thunder lightning unseasonable Rain a sickly Summer SECTION IV. Of ☉ when strong Kings Princes and all Noble-men shall increase in Honour and Renown the Common People will be of high and elevated spirits the Weather warm and reviving Corn Beasts and Birds plentiful If weak People will be subject to palpitations of the Heart Sore-eyes and other Malignant Distempers many great and honourable Persons suffer some degradation the Weather very unseasonable SECTION V. Of ♀ when strong A successful and advantageous year to Women and Maids they will be generally free from infirmities and other mishaps married Women shall love and delight themselves in the company and society of their Husbands be fruitful easily conceive and be delivered with much facility the People or Commonallity will thrive and be prosperous delight in all modest recreations feastings and the like to go spruce and fine in Apparel many happy Marriages will be contracted and a jocund year it will be to most Persons the Air will be healthful pleasant showers falling in season But if weak Then People will be given to lewd pleasures and bring to themselves much evil thereby you may judge quite contrary to what was said before viz. Sickly Scarcity unwholesome Dews Mists c. many Miscarriages Abortive Births c. SECTION VI. Of ☿ when strong Merchants and all Learned Men will have a successful time Shop-keepers and Trades-men little cause to complain for ☿ is the natural signification of Trade Traffick and Merchandizing therefore when he is Lord of the year and strong there shall be a brisk imploy among most Professions Arts and Sciences will be advanced and each Student strive to excel therein But if weak Trading will be at a low ebb Shop-Keepers Trades-men and Merchants break high Winds shall often annoy Ships at Sea and do much harm by Land also many Ship-wracks and some suffer by contrary winds SECTION VII Of ☽ when strong People shall be healthy fortunate just honest and punctual in all their dealings a very calm and tranquil time a year hedged round with peace and plenty wholesome Weather no want of Rain in its due Season But if weak The Commonallity will be subject to many cold and dull Diseases have little success in their Vocations deceitful and false in their Dealings an unwholesome destructive season the Weather raw and cold with great scarcity of Rain when the Earth requires it and Floods of water when there is no need of any SECTION VIII If the Lord or Ruler of the year be strong and afflicted or weak and assisted then we must judge a medium between both of what is before declared So likewise we must observe the Sign he is in whether it be Masculine or Feminine humane or bestial fiery earthy airy or watery East West North South c. and accordingly order our Judgment CHAP. III. Shewing how to give Judgment on the 12 Celestial Houses in any Revolution of the years of the World First House THis House signifies the Lives state and condition of the Common People therefore if you find it free from the presence or evil Aspect of an infortune and the Lord thereof and the ☽ free from affliction they will be in a happy and prosperous state no ways molested or grieved if ♃ ♀ or ☊ be in the first or in ☌ ⚹ or △ to the Lord thereof or ☽ they shall be brisk healthy and enjoy much felicity during that Revolution but if ♄ ♂ or ☋ be in the first or in ☌ □ or ☍ to the Lord thereof or ☽ they denote trouble vexations infirmities dangers and crosses to the People Note I do not mean Dragon's Head or Tail in any Aspect but Conjunction Second House If you find no evil Planet in this House nor in ☌ □ or ☍ to the Lord thereof or ♁ then judge it will be a succesful and advantageous year to the Commonality more especially if either of those significators are befriended with the presence or laudable Aspect of a Fortune but if ♄ or ♂ be in the second ill dignified or in ☌ □ or ☍ with the Lord thereof or ♁ they signifie poverty losses little trading and much couzening and cheating in the World if ☋ be in the second or in ☌ with the ♁ the same Third House If ♃ ♀ ☊ or ♁ be found in this house well dignified or the Lord of the third in friendly configuration with the Lord of the Horoscope or ☽ or if they be in reception Neighbours and Relations will live in Love and Unity short Journeys shall be safe and removals very advantageous If ♄ ♂ or ☋ be in the third or the Lord of the third in □ or ☍ to the Lord of the Ascendent or ☽ then Relations will jar Neighbours clash envy hate and disturb one another they shall be full of feuds perfidiousness and heart-burnings c. Fourth House Hence we judge of the fertility or sterility of the ground if ♃ ♀ ☊ or any other Planet be in the fourth house well dignified the earth will be fruitful and bring forth good increase the Countrey-man shall have very hopeful crops of Corn and most Fruits plentiful but if ♄ ♂ or ☋ be in this house unfortunate then the earth shall be barren or not bring forth its due increase Fruits scarce and much of the Husbandman's time spent in vain houses come to ruine and little profit redound to the owners Fifth House If you find this house free from the presence or evil Aspect of an infortune or ♃ ♀ or ☊ therein you may judge teeming-women will have good success in child-bearing that year and People enjoy much felicity in their Feasting and Pastime if ♄ ♂ or ☋ are herein they signifie many miscarriages abortive births and hard labours so likewise many will be addicted to lewd courses and small good come of company-keeping but rather strife quarrels and duels issue from thence if ☉ ☿ or ☽ be in the fifth judge according unto their strength or weakness Sixth House If the Lord of the Horoscope or Luna be in the sixth and the Lord of the sixth in the Horoscope it will be a sickly season if the Lord of the sixth or any Planet
therein be in ☌ □ or ☍ with the Lord of the Horoscope or ☽ you may verily pronounce or conclude a sickly time if the Lord of the sixth be in the eighth in evil Aspect to the Lord of the first or ☽ those Diseases that are likely to be rampant that Revolution will prove the sharp Knife of Atropos to many or if he be in the fourth it is not a half penny difference for they will then drill People as fast into their Graves but if the Lord of the Ascendant and Luna be in their essential Dignities and free from affliction then there is no fear of sickness in that Revolution Of the Parts of mens Bodies under the seven Planets and the Diseases they cause ♄ Is cold and dry in the third and fourth degree he rules the Memory Hearing right Ear Teeth Spleen Bones and Joynts Of Diseases he causes Gouts Consumption Quartan Ague Tooth-Ach Leprosie Sciatica vain melancholy Fears black Jaundice Trembling Hemorrhoids or Piles Broken-bones Dislocations pain in the Bones Deafness Ruptures all Diseases proceeding from Melancholy and Grief or Frights ♃ Is hot and moist he rules the Judgment Lungs Liver Veins Blood Taste Sides and Ribs Of Diseases all that belongs to the Liver c. as Plurisie inflammation of the Lungs Quotidian Fevers Imposthumes in the Lungs true Quinsie Surfets Coughs Scurvie and want of taste ♂ Is hot and dry in the third and fourth degree he rules the bulk of the Head Face Smell left Ear and Gall he likewise sways the Apprehension Diseases Burning-Fevers Pestilence Plague-Sores Tertian Agues Megrims Carbuncles Burnings Scaldings Ring-worms Shingles Blisters Phrensie Yellow Jaundice Bloody-Flux Fistula's Calenture St. Anthonie's Fire Stone in the Reins and Bladder Small-Pox hurts by Iron all Wounds Stabs Old Ulcers and all Diseases proceeding from Choler Fury or Anger ☉ Is hot and dry in the first and second degree he rules the Heart Arteries Vital Spirits Sinews Sight right Eye of a man and left Eye of a woman the Back Diseases Vertigo Sore-eyes Pimples in the Face Sore-Mouth Cramp Palpitation of the Heart Heart-burnings Qualms Faintings Swoonings and rotten Fevers ♀ Is cold and moist in the first and second degree she rules the Throat Neck Breast Milk Reins Seed Kidneys Womb Yard Stones all the Instruments of Generation Diseases all such as belong to the Womb as Suffocations Precipitation Dislocation all Diseases incident to the Vessels of Generation French-Pox Running of the Reins Priapism pissing Disease all Distempers coming from inordinate Love or Lust ☿ Is cold and dry in the first and second degree he rules the Intellect Imagination Reason Feeling Tongue Voice Hands and Feet Diseases Apoplexies Stammering Lisping Dumness Hoarsness Ptisick Astmah dry Cough snuffling in the Nose stoppings in the Head foolish Fancies all Diseases of the intellectual Faculty ☽ Is cold and moist in the third and fourth degree she rules the bulk or body of the Brain Nerves Sence left Eye of a man and right Eye of a womam natural Powers Stomack Bowels and Bladder Diseases Palsie Convulsions Falling-Sickness hurts in the Eyes Rhumes Kings-evil Cholick Belly-aches Dropsies Fluxes Worms over-flowing of the Terms Lethargies bastard Quinsie Measles all Diseases proceeding from cold Flegm Of the Parts of the Body and Diseases under the Signs ♈ Head Face Brain Hair Beard Eyes Ears Nose Lips Mouth Tongue Teeth and every Part of the upper Ventricle or Head Diseases Whilks Pushes Pimples Freckles Sun-burn Polippus or Noli me tangere Head-ach Vertigo Megrim Frenzy Lethargy Catalepsie Apoplexy Dead-Palsie Falling-Sickness Convulsions Cramps Madness Forgetfulness Ring-worms Small-Pox Tooth-Ache Hare-Lips Baldness and Tremblings ♉ Neck Throat Channel-bone Shoulder-blade Voice all Parts of the Neck Diseases King's-evil Quinzie Wens in the Neck Sore-throat flux of rhume in the Throat Pallat-faln Kernels c. ♊ Arms Shoulders Hands Fingers every Part from the Shoulders to the Finger's ends Diseases windiness in the Blood Fractures Dislocations and all Infirmities of those Parts ♋ Breast Stomack Ribs Lungs Liver Plura Women's Paps and the Ventricle of the Stomack Diseases Plurisie want of Appetite weakness of Digestion coldness of the Stomack Dropsies Coughs Cancers Ptysicks Imposthumes watery Humours ♌ The Heart Back Appetite and Pericardium Diseases Qualms Passions palpitation or trembling of the Heart violent Fevers sore Eyes yellow Jaundies Plague or Pestilence c. ♍ Belly Bowels Spleen Navel the Omentum and Diaphragma Diseases Spleen Worms Wind-cholick Illaick-passion Hypocondriack Melancholy Obstructions in the Meseraick Veins c ♎ Reins Kidneys Small of the Back c.

If the Lord of the Ascendent or ☽ be in □ with the Lord of the seventh there will be much suspicion or fear of a War that year and many Clandestine Actions on foot tending thereto but if either the Lord of the Horoscope or ☽ are in ☍ to the Lord of the seventh Open Wars is then very likely to be that Revolution ♄ or ♂ in the seventh in ☌ □ or ☍ with the Lord of the Horoscope or ☽ signifie much blood-shed by Wars Duels c. also many tedious Law-Suits ♂ in any Angle excites or stirs up mens minds to War any of the Superior Planets viz. ♄ ♃ ♂ or ☉ in ☌ □ or ☍ to each other in the Scheme of a Revolution prompts the Grandees of Nations to Eminent Debates or Differences and from thence come Wars and effusion of blood but if none of those Positions or Configurations be found in the Figure and ♃ or ♀ angular or the Lord of the seventh in ⚹ or △ to the Lord of the Ascendent or Luna then you may conclude it will be a Year of Peace and Tranquillity Eighth House The Lord of the eighth in the sixth and in ☌ □ or ☍ with the Lord of the Horoscope or ☽ denotes a great Mortality or Death of People by some poysonous or malignant Distemper the Lord of the Ascendent or ☽ in the eighth or the Lord of the eighth in the Ascendent in evil Aspect to each other the same but if you find the Lord of the
their light for a season SECTION II. That of the Sun is occasioned at the ☌ or Change of the Moon by the interposition of the Moon between the Body of the Sun and the Earth averting or turning his Beams from us whereby he becomes darkned for that time That of the Moon is by the Diametrical Interposition of the Earth betwixt the Sun and the Moon so depriving her of the light that she receiveth from the Sun and this is always at the ☍ or Full-Moon the Sun ever moveth in the Ecliptick-Line and therefore were it not so that the Moon at her Conjunction and Opposition with him had Latitude whereby she deviates from the Ecliptick sometimes North-ward and at other times South-ward that she cannot exactly meet with him there this defect would be every Change and Full. SECTION III. The time for which we should erect a Figure concerning this business Guido Bonatus that Learned Italian Astrologer tells us in these Words Si autem in anno fuerit Eclipsis vide in quo signo sit adventa aequabis tunc Planetas Domos ad horam mediae Eclipsis if in any year there be an Eclipse see in what Sign it is and reduce the Planets and Houses to the Time of the middle of the Eclipse SECTION IV. The Places concerned in the effects of an Eclipse Ptolomy informs us Muxime evenient in ea quae eidem Signo Eclipsis assimilatur in qua super terram videtur Eclipsis the effects will chiefly happen to those Parts subject to the Sign wherein the Eclipse is and in those Places where the Eclipse is visible Now on what the effects will be manifested Ptolomy also tells us ex Qualitatibus Figuris quae proprie sunt Signorum in quibus est Eclipsis locus indicatur Signorum etiam in quibus erraticae non erraticae consistent Stellae quae Signo Eclipsis Signo Anguli praecedentis Eclipsi donando disponunt the meaning of these words run to this purpose That we may know from the Qualities and Forms of those Signs wherein the Light is Eclipsed and from those Places in which the Planets or other Stars having chief dominion in the place of the Eclipse and the Angle preceding the Eclipse shall be located the Angle preceding is the Ascendent if the Eclipse be in the Forenoon but if it be Afternoon then 't is the Mid-heaven or tenth house from hence we learn that if an Eclipse be in humane Signs it will manifest its effects on men if in a Bestial Sign on Cattle in the Ascendent on the Common People in the second on their Substance c. if it be on the ninth house on Church-men in the tenth on Kings Princes c. an Eclipse on the fiery Triplicity denotes the motion of Armies Wars effusion of Blood detriment to Kings Princes or Noble-men Murthers Thefts Robbers on the high-ways Depopulations Abortions to Women with Child malignant Fevers destruction to Sheep Coneys and Horses strange Apparitions in the Ayr in the earthy Triplicity scarcity of Corn and other Fruits death of Bulls Oxen Cows Goats and Hogs Earth-quakes c. in the airy Triplicity Hurricanes stormy Winds pestilential Diseases a scarcity of Food death of Birds or the Fowls of the Ayr in the watery Triplicity Wars rumors of Wars eruptions or over-flowing of the Sea-banks Floods of water death of Vulgar People damage to Fish c. SECTION V. The effects of an Eclipse doth without doubt begin to operate from the first appearance thereof though not much to be descerned and when the ☉ or ♂ cuts or oppose the place thereof they rouse it up to action but Authors teach us other Lessons which I shall not trouble my self with here nor shall I say any thing against it SECTION VI. For to know how long the effects of an Eclipse will continue let enquiry be made of Ptolomy whom you shall hear speak thus sciemus quod futura Solaris Eclipsis tot annis durabit quot ejus horae aequales fuerint Lunaris vero totidem mensibus the sence of these words is we must know that in an Eclipse of the Sun the effects shall continue so many years as he is eclipsed equal hours and of the Moon so many months CHAP. II.

SHEWING How plainly the Stars did point at that never to be forgotten Popish Plot and other Remarkable Affairs of that Year By William Knight Student in Astrology and Physick London Printed by E. T. and R. H. for Thomas Passinger at the Three Bibles on London Bridge 1681. Ptolomy saith Ex Solis existentia in Ariete Vernalem qualitatem cognoscemus by the Sun 's entring into Aries we are to judge and know the event and success of the accidents of the Spring Guido Bonatus Post quam certificatus fueris ad unguem de tempore introitus Solis in A ietem vide quis ex Planetis sit Dominus anni when we have exactly calculated and found out the true time of the Sun his entrance into Aries then we are to see what Planet is Lord of the year in this Figure of Heaven ♄ is Almuten of the Horoscope and therefore is Lord of the year yet we may allow ♂ Co-partner with him in regard he is exalted in the Sign Ascending two prime Guids there was no doubt of this years being well governed all the Planets under the Earth and four of them in □ to ♄ who is posited in ♊ a humane Sign in ☌ with Aldebaran a violent fixed Star of the nature of ♂ signified occult Conspiracies wicked Plots and Devices Treacheries and violent Actions among men but as ☿ Lord of the eighth is in ☌ with ♂ Lord of the tenth and both of evil Aspect to ♄ so would Justice with Death repay some of those desperate Agents ♄ signifies Monks Jesuits Fryers c. and he being in □ to ♂ Lord of the tenth so well as to the ☽ in the Ascendent argued their hellish design was at Prince and People to abandon or destroy the established Government and to erect their own detestable Principles and this they might think themselves sure of by reason ♄ disposes of the ☽ and is in ⚹ to the ☉ but he is peregrine and confronted by no less than four Planets as before noted and ♂ who is Lord of the tenth and exalted in the Ascendent is in his Triplicity and in perfect ⚹ with potent ♀ ergo he stands firm and ♄ must go to wrack maugre all his malicious contrivances we read in the fifth Chapter of Judges and rhe twentieth Verse that the Stars in their courses fought against Sisera and truly here we may see that the Stars in their courses fought against the Papists for which let all true hearted English Protestants give due praise and glory to God Almighty who commissioned them so to do and in this the Anti-Astrologer would be much the better employed than in busying his Brain Tongue or Pen in so amply displaying in Billingsgate Rhetorick his Ignorant malice against a worthy and harmless Science Albumazer a Learned Arabian Astrologer saith Mars cùm fuerit in revolutione anni in quarto Aspectu Saturni excitat bellum Mars when in the revolution of any year is in Quartile of Saturn he causeth Wars but he being seperated one degree from the perfect Aspect and ♀ in exact ⚹ with ♂ as also the Application of ☉ to the ⚹ of ♄ argued that notwithstanding the preparation noise or popular clamour that might be of Wars it would determine in Peace and this Judgment I delivered to some Friends who requested the same of me long before there was any publick suspicion of Wars but when there was so great preparation thereunto and Souldiers sent beyond Sea the certainty of War was affirmed Astrology degraded and I laughed at by my Friends nevertheless I told them still that they laughed before they won or was like to win as indeed it proved to the great honour of Art ♄ being the Lord of the year and afflicted as afore observed signified a sickly Season and a long and cold Winter which was so apparently true that I think none can deny it there are many excellent things to be extracted from the aforegoing Scheme of this years Affairs which I shall omit and proceed to the consideration of the Coeli Position at the Sun's Entrance into the Tropick of Cancer intending to see if God permit what may be observed from thence concerning the Popish Plot. Sol enters Cancer June the Eleventh 1678 at five hours fifty minutes ante meridiem at which time the Face of Heaven is as in the following Figure Ptolomy Ex Solis existentia in Cancro qualitas aestivalis deprehenditur by the Sun his entrance into Cancer the quality and nature of the Summer Quarter is known ♄ is in this Figure nearly in perfect □ to the place of ♃ in the Vernal Ingress he is Ruler of the seventh and eighth Houses and ♃ Lord of the ninth so that you see one of them is both naturally and accidentally the Significator of England's mortal Enemies and the other the natural and accidental Significator of the Reverend Clergy or the true Protestant
