called Grande Chirurgerie I speak of it largely enough wherefore I say you shall have recourse to the Ephemerides In the mean time I will persue the declaring upon what parts of the body the Stars do rule with their proprieties And in the first place Aries is hot and dry of the nature of fire he governs the head and face of a man and it is good to blood when the Moon is there unlesse it be in the part which the Moon governs The parts wherein the Signes rule together with their property concerning blooding Taurus is cold and dry of the nature of the Earth and governs the neck and Wind-pipe and it is bad to make use of bleeding the Moon being in that Sign Gemini is hot and moyst of the nature of Ayr and governs the shoulders and Arms and hands is ill for blooding Cancer is cold and moyst of the nature of water and governs the Breast the stomach Lungs and is indifferent neither too good nor too bad for blooding Leo is hot and dry of the nature of fire and governs the back and sides and is ill for blooding Virgo is cold and dry of the nature of the Earth governs the Belly and the Intrals is neither very good nor bad for blooding Libra is hot and moyst of the nature of the Ayr and governs the Navel the Reins and the lower part of the Belly good to blood in Scorpio is cold and moyst of the nature of water and governs the parts for generation is neither good nor bad Sagittarius is hot and dry of the nature of fire and governs the Thighes is good to let blood Aquarius is hot and moyst of the nature of Ayr and governs the Legs is neither good nor bad for letting blood Pisces is cold and moyst of the nature of water governs the Feet and is neither good nor bad to let blood Aries Libra and Sagittarius are very good Virgo Scorpio and Aquarius and Pisces are indifferent Taurus Gemini and Leo and Capricorn are evil Yet we say that the Moon being in Trixe and Sextile with Venus it is a good time to purge Choller by Electuary with the Sun 't is good to purge Flegme by drinks with Jupiter 't is good to purge melancholy by Pills Division of the Signes Furthermore you must take notice that every one of the Signes is divided into 30. Degrees from whence it followes that in the whole Zodiac there are 360. degrees and again every degree is divided into 60. minutes and every minute into 60. seconds and every minute into 60. thirds and so of the rest following until ten The rising and setting of the Signes Besides you must take notice that when we have the longest day of Summer which is to say then when the Sun is in the beginning of Cancer there arises six Signes in a day which do rise directly and in the night six Signes obliquely And on the contrary when we have the shortest day of the year to wit the Sun being in the beginning of Capricorn then six Signes rise in a day obliquely and the six of the night directly but when the Sun is either in th' one or th' other Equinoctial point then they rise three Signes directly and three obliquely in a day and in the night in like manner For there is a Rule that let the day or the night be long or short as you will six Signes rise in the day and six by night so that either for the length or the shortness of the day or night neither the more or lesse Signes do rise For the knowledge of which Signes you must take notice of the Characters following as the Astrologers mark them Aries with such a Sign ♈ Taurus such a one ♉ Gemini such ♊ Cancer ♋ Leo. ♌ Virgo ♍ Libra ♎ Scorpio ♏ Sagitarius ♐ Capricornus ♑ Aquarius ♒ Pisces ♓ Let this suffice for the discovery concerning the 12. Signes let us come now to the 7. Planets whereof we should here make a Table or Figure but because we have sent the Reader to Ephemerides in relation to the Signs we will do the like concerning the Planets contenting my self only in this place to set down their Characters for the discovery of the more easie understanding them and their differences Behold then how the Astrologers mark them Saturne thus ♄ Iupiter thus ♃ Mars thus ♂ Sun thus ☉ Venus thus ♀ Mercury thus ☿ Luna thus ☽ Here followes the difference of the Planets as well for purging and blooding as for the making other operations upon humane bodies Most good ♃ ♂ Indifferent ☉ ☽ ☿ Bad. ♄ ♂ The Chirurgion must Encounter the Starrs And you must take notice that then when Mercury is with a good Planet he augments its goodnesse and with a bad one its Malignity wherefore it is that when one is wounded you must take notice whether Mercury be not with some bad Planet which rules the part wounded and if so then the Chirurgion must Encounter the Starrs and so you must minde these things but most especially in blooding to the end that we having done nothing improperly through our negligence may have an occasion of praise and thanks-giving to the Authour of all things to whom Father Son and Spirit be honour and glory for ever Amen CHAP. V. That it is necessary that the Chirurgion have the Astronomicall figure in his study or in his shop and of the profit that proceeds therefrom as well for the sick persons as for those who exercise it which is proved by a History and other examples As also that it is better to keep cleanse the blood then to evacuate it With the description of two admirable remedies for this end The good desire of the Authour I Should desire by good reason as well for the profit of those who search relief or Remedy from Phlebotomy as for the spiritual contentment of those that practise it to the end that the whole might be to the honour and glory of God that every Chirurgion had within his shop the Astronomicall figure as formerly the Ancients had and who had recourse unto it then when they would know the Domination of a Starr on the part whereon they were to operate observing with all their power the rising and setting of the above mentioned Signes and their constellations insomuch that the Antients have not found it to be unprofitable Of the truth whereof among severall of them Arnoldus de villa nova shall be a most faithful witnesse Therefore I shall again heartily intreat the Chirurgions that they would take heed unto it and not to pretend that their Art is subject to Calumnie seeing it is they themselves which are the cause of their arts being so Calumniated whilst they neglect that which is most necessary to be known in their profession to wit Astronomie The ignorance of Astronomy is cause of great evils Insomuch that not having the knowledge of it there doth arive many evil Accidents and the
