Mars Stationary in Gemini in Opposition to Saturn in Sagitary this seems to portend a Storm to London about Religion and this is confirmed by Mars his Conjunction with Saturn in Sagitary and both in Opposition to Jupiter in Gemini in the same year which I fear may be continued to 1693.

Why may there not some Factions arise among the Roman Clergy in order to the ruine of that See I am of the Opinion there will now and within a few years succeeding The fate of Kingdoms and Countries doth not depend only upon the Conjunction and Aspects of the Planets only but also upon the motion of the Nodes for by their motion through the Signes are Eclipses caused in divers parts of the Heavens And when they especially those of the Sun happen near the Horoscopes of Kingdoms or Cities they cause divers Accidents and Calamities according to their then signification and it will not be amiss here to give a Historical Account of their effects as they have for many years concerned Great Brittain and France Anno 1554. There was an Opposition of Saturn and Jupiter from Virgo and Pisces and the next year the North Node transited Gemini in those years were the great Persecutions in Queen Marys dayes and other differences and disputes about Religion which may be easily remembred by the Reformed Churches still Anno 1564. The North Node transited Sagitary about this time the Duke of Guise Killed 1500 people at a Sermon great troubles throughout France and there was a Rebellion in the North of England Anno 1574. The Prince of Conde heads the Protestants and so begins the first Civil War in France about Religion which by Act of Pacification was ended anno 1576. the South Node then transited Gemini Anno 1583 and 1584. The North Node again transited Sagitary now great troubles in England with Plots against the Queen and Protestants Anno 1592. The North Node passeth through Gemini the Popish Lords rise in Scotland some Hang'd for Writing Seditious Books and shortly after the Plot of Dr. Lopez Anno 1602. The North Node again passed through Sagitary the Jesuits and Secular Priests in England quarrel and the year following the Plot of Watson and Clark against King James is discovered Anno 1611. There was a total Eclipse of the Sun in Gemini Proclamations against Priests and Jesuits two Arrian Hereticks Burnt the one at London the other at Lichfield and Prince Henry the Flower of England dies Anno 1621. There was a great Eclipse in the beginning of Gemini Gondamore is abused by the people in London Streets and the French Protestants are troubled by the Papists Anno 1630. There was two very great Eclipses of the Sun the one in Gemini the other in Sagitary the Earl of Castlehaven Beheaded on Tower-hill London-Bridge lamentably ruined by Fire soon after some Tumults in Ireland Anno 1639. There were two very great Eclipses of the Sun the one in Gemini the other in Sagitary the King Marches down into Scotland against the Scots then in Arms the Spaniards and Dutch Fight in the Downs the Scots Invade England c. Anno 1648. There was a Total Eclipse of the Sun in the last degree of Gemini Francis Lord Villiers slain Colchester surrendred and Lucas and Lisle Shot the King Murdered the Irish Rebellion and shortly after the Powder-blow in Tower-Street Cum multis aliis Anno 1658. There was two Central Eclipses of the Sun in Sagitary and Gemini Cromwel dies an Insurrection in Chesshire Monck Marches toward London Tumults and Uproars in the City the Gates and Portcullises of London pull'd down Anno 1666. In December there was almost an Central Eclipse of the Moon in Gemini and in May following there happen'd another as great in Sagitary and in November following there was another as great as either in Gemini all of the Moon the Boyes Rise Tumultuously in London and withstand the Kings Guards shortly after the then Mayor laying hold of the Penal Laws set the City into a common hurry by committing divers of the Aldermen and other Citizens to Prison for Religion Anno 1676. There were two Central Eclipses of the Sun the one in Gemini the other in Sagitary Tumultuous Risings in London the Weavers Rise about the Abuses of their Trade the Train-bands are raised to prevent Disturbances here are also new Proclamations and old Laws put in force against the Nonconformists By this Rule we must expect some effects of some such like nature when the North-Node transites Gemini which is in the year 1785 and 1686. But what these effects will be let time shew But secondly and lastly in particular the effects of this Phasma or two Moons will appear more visibly about the beginning of August Saturn and Mars then having been in Square a little before So also about the middle of November Mars then comes to the opposite point of the last Conjunction of Saturn and Mars and toward the end of November the Sun comes to the same point December will be a Month of great Action in some Countrys of Europe and so will January following neither will March be a Month of less Action then the rest France and Germany are under Aries God preserve those places and all others under Aries from Differences and Wars I thought to have insisted Astrologically upon those Oppositions of Saturn and Mars and Saturn and the Sun in December next but because it is a work of a different nature from this here before us I will refer it to some other opportunity or else leave it for some abler Pen In the mean time I pray God bless England Scotland and Ireland with Peace and Plenty and let all our Contention be who shall be most Zealous and who shall perform the most Acts of Justice in the fear of God then may England be called the Holy Land and London The New Jerusalem the City of our God And as Ovid himself said so do I. Quod si quis ab alto Justus adest precibus Jupiter ipse meis Dii precor a nobis omen removete Sinistrum sua det reduci vir meus arma Jovi Sed timeo quotiesque subit miserabile bellum more nivis lacrymae sole madentis eunt FINIS
