Christian Astrology, written in 1647 by the English astrologer William Lilly, is considered to be one of the most important seminal works of Western astrology.
William Lilly successively treats the rules of western astrology, horary astrology and 'nativities', about erecting and analysing a birth chart in natal astrology. He wrote the book when he was ill and had to stay at home. Running away from the plague in London, he spent a year in the countryside to study, reflect, and write Christian Astrology.
Lilly himself explains that he was influenced among others by Ptolemy's Quadripartitum (Tetrabiblos), De occulta philosophia by Agrippa, De Astronima Tractarus 10 by Guido Bonatti, 120 Aphorismi of John Dee, Medicina Catholica by Robert Fludd, Epitomes Astronomiae by Johan Kepler and Paracelsus' De Meteoris, all of which are mentioned in the appendix of Christian Astrology.
The modern edition of Christian Astrology consists of three volumes:
- Book 1: An Introduction to Astrology
- Book 2: The Resolution of all manners of Questions and Demands
- Book 3: An Easie and Plaine Method How to Judge Upon Nativities
Book 1
- Introduction to Astrology
Lilly referred to this book as a course for astrology students in which he expounds the general principles of astrology. Topics covered:
- the use of the ephemeris
- preparing the horoscope
- the nature of the 12 signs of the zodiac
- the nature of the planets
- the nature of the 12 houses
Book 2
- About the solution of many questions and issues
This part of Lilly's work is a methodical instruction the student must follow to be able to answer all kinds of questions - on disease, wealth, marriage choices, travel, etc. - using the techniques of horary astrology. Lilly includes 35 examples of such questions. He gives a detailed explanation of the procedure to be followed and elaborates on all elements that are important in the analysis. The act of choosing the right "significator" is especially important, as well as choosing the right house and its ruler that are involved.
Book 3
- An easy and clear method for the natal chart
In this third part "How to judge upon Nativities' William Lilly discusses the interpretation of the natal chart.
He treatment includes the following topics:
- determining body build, shape, color and intelligence of the unborn
- if the person will be born rich, which diseases he will likely suffer from, and whether he will suffer a violent death, his marriage, the number of spouses, their origin, his children and what will be the most appropriate career
- In the section on primary directions (predictions by 'advancing' the birth planets according to a formula) Lilly gives advice on the use of solar returns, transits and the signification of the aspects the planets make.
In addition, he also gives clues about how these techniques can be used to 'correct' a natal chart in case the time of birth is not exactly known to the astrologer. This he finds to be of major importance to make accurate predictions.

September 1 64 1 ./ lived amongft fuch whom I may name the s-noft
r sir all of all men living. I then came for London,ft agger ing in my
judgement inpsint of Church-government ; and knowing that it is
ntitffary, I ever hytd Monaypty, but ftill thought without <t Par-
liament preferved in their juft rights , it would vanijh to nothing. I
was nothing known thenar takgn notice of by any; time produced me
acquaintance , and amongft thefe a good Lady in 1 643. about fe-
biuiry , de fired I would give judgement upon a moft noble Gentle*
masts Urine a Councellor at Law,whe then was not well;! confented,
the Urine was brought, my judgement returned', I vi fned him, whom
I no foiner beheld , but J k>^ew there was aboun dance of gallantry in
t be man ; for indeed he is all Gentleman and a friend in very great
earncft ; my vif* of him was the happieft day I ever faw in my
whole life j for by his alone gene rofity and countenance, I am what 1
diw, and AUrolopy is in defpigbt of her enemies reflored, and muft
call him her Reftaurator.
Being by his goodneffe admitted to vifit thim , / prefented him
with a' fmall LMawfcript of my Allrologicall Judgment of the
jeer 1 644 wherein I was free in delivering my opinion niudeftly of
that yeers affaires : it plea fed him to communicate it , Copies were
obtained and difperfed ; fo that by his alone commendation of that
pojr Manufcrip unto his private friends, this noble Art at firft had
refpett amongft our Worthies in the Parliament ; ftnee which timet
the Judicious of the whole Kingdom had it in a better efteem ;

So that the tenth houfe is oppofite tothe fourth , the fourth
to the tenth ; the eleventh to the fifth,the fifth to the eleventh*
and fo all the reft as you find placed : The ufe you are to make
of it is this , That if on the Cufp of the tenth houfe you find

the Signe j and leok-whatxiegree and-minutepoffefleththe
Signe of tlve tenth houfe , the fame degree and minute of the
oppofite Signe mull be placed on the Cufp of the fourth houfe,
r.nd ioof all the other Signes and Cuibs of houfes - and this is
general!, and ever holderhtnie ; without which rule obferved,
you cannot erect tlie Figure aright.

Upon the line or Cufp of the eleventh houfe you fee X 17,6,
nr. 15 the Signe oppofite to K , and the fifth houfe to theele--

I tioe loin the reft of the houfes , and by this means I have'
f.MTied the twelve houfes , and placed the feverall Signs of the
Zodiack upon the Cufps as they ought to be.
Hiding flnifhed your twelve Houfes by the Method price-'
cling , you mull now learn to place the Planets therein which'
you mult doe by obferving in tlie Ephemeris , the exact place or*
the Planet- in Sign and Degree at noon the day of the Figure,
and in what Houfe you flull finde the Sign wherein the Planer
i? , in that Houfe mutt you place tlie Planet , within the Houfe
if the Planet be in more Degrees then the Cufpe of the Houfe;"
without the Houfe , if his Degrees be lefle themthofe of the'
(' up of the Houfes.

1- fin J X on the Cut e of the eleventh, and Won the Cufpe- of

ceprcd; for fo we fay when a Signe is- nor upon any of rhe
Cufpe > of Hoiifes , out is included betwixt one Houfe and ano-*
ther : 1 therefore place "ft in the vi Honfe, as you may fee;-

Of colours, it hath the White j that is, if a Planet be in

the colour of the cloaths of any man , if his fignirlcitor be in

Every one of thefe Signs contains thirty degrees or pares

which we aho call fcxuples , every minute contains 60 feconds
snd 10 further if youpleafe, &c but in Afirolpgy we onely
mike ufe of degrees , and minutes and feconds.
Thefe Sis>ns are again divided many wayes ; ashrlt, into

Of the Etfefltiali Dignities of the Planets,
1 {e cxatf way of judicature in Attrolog y is , firft, by being
- pcrfed in the nature of the Timers and Signs.
' Secondly ,by knowing the Urength, fortitude o; debilility of
dragnets, Significators, and a well poyfmg of them and their
jlpe^ts and feverall mixtures, in your judgment. ^ .
Thirdly , by rightly applying the influence of the. posture of
Heavan t retted /.and the Planets afpefls to one another at the
rime, of the Quettion, according to mtmullfand not enforced;
maximes of Art; for by how much you endeavour to flrama
judgment beyond nature , by fo much the more you augment
yom Ktrour.
A Pl.mec is then faid to be really Arcng whin he hath many
llfcniial dignities, which are known, by hi. being cither in
his Houfe , iixAlcation , TripHcky , Tuvne or Face , at time of
cwtii-.o a>e Figure. As for.txample :
In any Scheam of Heaven, if you find a PI met in any of £(f c ,,tiJ
thole Signs we call his houfe or houfes , h: is then etfentially t i\gm t jby
ihong , 'and we allow fo: that I'm dign.it i ; as h in' v? , % m Houfe.
i^t- ........
h\ wemctit , when a Planet or Signihcator is in his own
houfe > it reprefents a man in fuch a condition , as that he is
Lord of his own houfe , e&\te and fortune ; or a man. wanting
very little of the Gqods of this world , or it tels you the man is
b a very happy ttate or condition ; this will be t rue , unle lie the'

If he be in th it Sign wherein lis is exrfred , you may allow

Ti' the fipnificaior'bi in his exaltation, and no wave* wipe-
ditcd, but Angular ; it prefents a perTon of haughty condition,
arrogant , aituming inore unto him then his due ; foi it s obftr-
ved,tne Planets in lo ne part of the Zodiack doe more evident-
ly declare their effet^s then in others ; and I conceive this tola
m thofe Sipns and degrees where fixed Starres or the Uvm na-
ture with "the PI met, are more in number, and neeror ths
EchptKk^ i||anvof thofc Signs which are alotted him for his ,
Tfiplicitv, he hath allowed him three dignities : but herein
you i mult bs cautious ; as for example s In a Quellion, Nattvi- |
ty 5 or the like , if you find the 0 irt Y , and the Queihon , ot
Nativity, or Scheam erected be by night, and you would ex.
amine the 0 his fortitudes, he Hull have four dignities f«
beine in his exaltation, which continues through the Sign;
bur lie (halt not be allowed any dignity , as being m hit ttf < !
city ; for by night the 0 ruletluiot the fiery ; I notary bat
% who had he been in place of the 0 , arte by night , mull
have had allowed him three dignities ■: and this doe gene NlM
in all the Planets , 6 excepted , who night and day ruietfci*
W ^A^anctln'his triplicity , (hews a man modeftly indd
Tvith the Goods and Fortune of this world, one prettily*
«ndcd.and the condition of his life at prefent timeOf the Q*-
' {Uon, to be good ; but not fo, as if in either of the two former
any Planet be in thole degrees we tf&i for his Terms, I
>ve allow him two dignities j as whether day or night , it yv.
in one, two, three or four- &c decrees of Y, he is then in M
own Terms, and mult have two dignities therefore ; and loSM
any of the lira eight degrees of b, &c. \ I

A* Intfkkftion to Afinhge. ioy
net, then any extraordinary abundance in fortune, or of emi-
nenJy »» Common-wealth. m
If any Planet be in his 'Dccatmte , Pccurie or JFVrrtf , as c? in fVrnr.
the lint ten degrees of Y , or V- inthefirii ten degrees of
he is then allowed one ciTenihli dignity ; for being in Ins own
D/nnore or Face, cannot then be called peregrin.
A Planet having lictle or no dignity, bur by being in his De-
mrti ot Ftcc , is alnottlike a man ready to be turned out of
door^s , having much acjoe to maintaine himfelf in credit and
rcriiration • and in Genealogies it reprefents a l amily ;it the

The PUiicis may l?e firong another manner of way,™*.. Ac-
cidentally ; as whui pircft, fwitc in Motion, Angular, in A
or * sfpcci with U or $ , &c or in 6 with certain notable

thereon ,you may perceive what eflfemiiH dignity or imbecility
any PI met: hath.

A C o>:)unttlcr,£oiti<>»,SynQtl otC^refef (or fome ufe all ttefe
words ) is , when two Planets are in ofle and the fame degree
and minute of a &gn : Other new Afpeas I hive formerly
mentioned in the beginning of thisDifcourfe. You mull un-
derlbnd amongft thefe Afpeas , the QtMdme Aspect is a fign
of im|erfccY emnity j and that the Opptftiw is an alpea or ar-
gument of pcrfett hatred j whkhis to be underftoodthus : A
Quellion is propounded, Whether imferfoNS«t variance maj ht
reconciled ? Admit 1 rind the two Jiguficatfirs reprefenting ihc
two Adverfaies , in Q afpea j I may then judge > becaufe the
afpea is of imperfed hatred , jdiat the matter is not yer fo far
gone , but there may be hopes of reconciliation betwixt them,
the other jignificators or Planets a little helping. But if I find
. the main /gmficat^sin oppofttion , it's then in nature iinpo/Tr
ble to expert a peace bet wixt them, till the fuitis ended, if it be
a fcit of Law j until! they have fought, if it be iflktlttHgt.
the 'SextiU and Trim a^ofts are arguments 0? Love , unity
and Friend&ip ; but the A is more forcible, ( vi*.) if the two
/ignificntors arc: in * or A > nodoUbt but peare may beeafiiy

Conjnxtthns arc good or bad,, as the Planets in o* art friends

Ttrcor'inc.
Rccnticn. * Reception is when two Planets that ace figmficators ia ah/
Queilion or matter., are in each others dignity, j asp mH y
and'c? in «a ; here is. reception of thefe tWo Planets by Hok«.
" fes; and certainly this is the UrongefUnd bettof all rerepii.,
ens. It may be by triplicity, term* or face,, or any effentull dig-
niry ; as $ in Y., and 0 in b ; here is reception by tnphcity,
if the Quellion or Nativity be by, day: fotfm ihe^ofYjatf

in^ of a matter is derived t>y the 1 Afpu&syor .when the fignifh
caton h.we no Afpect to each other, or < when it Teems very
doubtfull what its promifed by , O or cf of the fignificatots,
yet if mutuall Reception happen betwixt the principal iligni-

trouble, and fuddenly to the.content of bofh parties.
A. Planet is then faid to be Perigrine , when he 19 in the da-
erees'of. any Sign wherein he h.ifli no eflentiall dignity : As
)l in the tenth degree of Y , that Sign being not his Houfe,
Exaltation, or of his Triplicity, or he having in that degree
either Term or Faces , he is then faid to be Peregrine ; hadhc
been in. 2*7,2$,^. of Y> he could, not be termed Peregrine,
bscaufe then he is in his ovyn T e * m - ; •
So the,© in any part of $ : is Peregrine , having no manner

Caution You muft carefully avoid pronouncing Death rafhly, and
.upon one hngle teiiimony ; you mull obferve , though the Lord
of rhe Afcendant be going to Combuftion , whether either U
or $ call not fome *■ or A to the Lord of t he Afcendant , ere
hz come to perfect Combuftion, or any other infortqne, for
th;t is an argument that either Medicine or ftrengch of Na-
ture will contradift that malignant influence , : or take off part
of that misfortune ; but when you find two or more of the
rules aforefafd concurring to death , you may be more bold in
your Judgment .• yet concerning the abfolute time of death
of any party, I have found it beftmbe wary, and have as
much as, I could, refrained this manner of judgment ; onely
thus much by the Qu:ftion may be known , that, if you find
the fgnlficators , as aforefaid , aftiiaed , you may judge the man
or party inquiring to be no long livid man , or Cubject to many
miieries and calamities and this I know- by many verified ex-
amples : the knowledge hereof is of excellent ufe for fuch as
would purchafe any Leafe or Office , or thing for Life or Lives,
Uc or for thofe who would carefully in a naturall.way prevent
thofc cafualties their natures or inclinations would run them

arguments die party is deceafed. of Gclr, and very neer death.
ki alio if there beany tranfktion of the light of the Lord
of the Afcendant unto the Lord of the eight , e'fpecially in de-
grees deep, lame or deficient ; or on the contrary , that there
be any tranflation or carrying the vertue or influence of the

Of a Sh'>p> and whatever are w her, her Safety or Deftrt&w.
TH E Amient s doe put this Quetlion to chofe concerning
the ninth houfe , and I conceive for no other reafon , then
becaufe it mull be granted , that all Shi. s are made for Travel!
and Journeys : however , in regard the molt paic of the J udg-
merft concerning its fafery or rmne is derived from the ATcen-v
dint and his Lord i and the 2>, I thought fit to place this Judg-
menr as belonging to the firft houfe. t >
Generally, the' Sign afcending, and ths T>, are Sigm\icators of
the Ship , and what Goodsare in her , the Lord of the Afcen-
dant of thofe that fail in her : if in the Queftion demanded
youfind^aU tliefe unfortunate , that is , if a malevolent Planet
by tofit ion be placed in the Afcendant , he having dignities in
the eighth; or if you find the Cord of the Afcendant m the
eighth, in any ill configuration with th^ Lord of the eighth,
twelfth, fourth or fixth , or the » combuft , or under the earth,,
you may judge the Ship is loft , and the men drowned , ^unlettc -
you find reception bstwixt themfelves ) for then the Ship was
cifuallyShipwrackt, and fome of .fhi Sea-men did efcape : bui
if you find the preceding Signijicators all of them free from mis-
fortune, both Men and Goods are all Cife j the more ftfe if any
reception be. But if the Afcendant and the S> be infortunatc,.
and the Lord of the Afcendant fortunate , the Ship U like to be
j drowned , but the men will be faved ; Some for, better know-
I ledge and difcovery of whit pare of, the Ship was like to be
freeft from danger , have divided the feverall pares of the Ship,
and have affigned to every of the twelve Signs , a part or place
" V 3 of
of the Ship , by which if any damage wfcfco efcttt to the Slfy,
they couloor might better prevent k.
Vat o Aries they give the Brefi of the, Ship. , ,
T» Taurus is under the Brejr a little towards the Water.
To Cancer the Bottom or Floor of the Ship. \
To Leo the top of the Ship above Water.
ToV'iigotheBelljofit. jr •
To Libra that part which fometimet u above, mdfometimes bth

Office. ■
To Sngiorius The Mariners themfelves.
7*Capricornus thetnds-of the Ship.
T« Aquarius the Mafier or Captain of the Ship.
To Pilces the Oaves. ; .
At the time when the Queftion is asked concerning the well
or ill beiiir, of the Ship , fee which of thefe Signs , or how ma-
ny of them are fortunate , of hath the » or the Lord thereof
fortunate , it's Ian argument thofe parts of the Ship To ftgnifietl,
will have no defect, or need repair theteof, of the Ship wj
receive* any detriment in thofc parts :but which of theCe Signs
you find unfortunate , or' in what 'Sign )>ou find the » of Lofd

•:■ The molt auured ceflimony in Aftrology , and upon a Qyc-
flion onely prOpounded;that the Querent be rich and con-,
tinue Xo, is this , If the Lord of the fall and fecond and Jnfm
be joyned together in the fecond Houfe , firft , tenth, fevefttb,
fourth or eleventh , but if they be nor in 6 » then that they ap-
ply by #• or A with rhutuall reception , although they apply
by D orcP , yet if ic tic with reception , the party will thrive
or hive an eltare, though with much labour , and many inter-
vening difficulties, yet w»H he ever more abound, then want.

When in any. Queftion you find your Figure figniftes the
Querent ftial come to an eftate.the refolution following is need-

& the J nterrogant would know the'eaufe why, or thing impedi-
tmg,that fo he may the better dire£t hisafFairs,& be more wary
in the courfe of his life,for better prevention of fuch difficulties.
In this Judgment carefully obferve the Planet obftructing , or
who doth molt afflift the Lord of the fecond, or ©,or the cufp
of the fecond, the J> , or Lord or Difpofitor of the © ; if the
Lord of the firft be that Planet, then the Querent hirnfelf is the
caufe; if the Lord of the fecond doe with □ or d 5 behold (ft
or the Cufp of the fecond , then wane of Money or a fuflicienc
Stock to fet hirnfelf in imployment is the caufe : if Lord of the
third , his own Kinred will doe nothing for him , or will prove
burthenfome, or malicious Neighbours will get all the Trade
from him , or,fo under-fell him , that he will be much kept un-
der thereby a and fo run thorough the twelve Houfes , as in the
Chapter before mentioned. I thought good here to give this
generall caution , that if the Lord of the fecond houfe , or Dif-
pofitor of © be Infortunes , yet if they have Effentt all Digni-
ties where they are, or afpe&s to good Planets, or be placed ia

and be a good Planet, and the Lord of the firlt and fcvcnth'fo
good Planets , or tiron° in that part of Heaven where they
er in the whole Figure ] if they be Dire& , and of fwift motion,
and in afpeft with good Planets , it is good then to abide frill
and not remote fro:u the place where the Querent is ; but if the
Lord of the ieventh be with a good Planet , and the Lord of els
fourth with an evill one , it is then not good to Hay , for it Ik
do, lie flull receive much damage there, That which I hive
obferved in this manner of Judgment was this - y That if the
Lord of the afcendant did lately leparate from the □ or <f of
the Lord of the f» vr h , eighth or twelfth, and the 2> alfo did con-
curre in judgment, vU. if Che did feparatc from any evill afw&
of the Ihfortuxts , they being Lords of either the fevemhot
fourth , &x. and not Friends orSignificators in the perfon cf
the Querent ; cr if 1 found an Infertile in the afcendant,Peie-
grine or Retrograde, cr if a Peregrine or unfbrtunKe Planet
was in the fourth , or if the Lord of the fecond was wealtorill
pouted , I advifed the Querent to remove his Habitation , and
gave him reafon why he fliould ; for if I found the Lord of ik
tixt houfe in the attendant^ or affti&ing the Lord of the Afcen-
dant , I judged he bad his health very bad there , wis Ikkly , ot
was tormented with illfemnrs, Djwhofe means he did not
thrive in his Vocation.
If the Lord of the twelfth affiiaed the Lord of the atendint
or tbe » , I faidhe had backbiting , evill or flanderou* Neigh-
bours , or people that lived not very f ar from htm did fcandj-
lias him ; if the Lord of the fecond was unfortunate , or in 0

Behold alio the Difpofition or application of that Planet to

take him that is EiFentially mortfirong , and judge by him j or

If the Lord of the fifth wereinxhc eight,and had noeffentwll

that the fault is wholly in the Child , or young Man or Maid,
according to the Quertion propounded. If 1 find T* cf or ?J in
the attendant, I tell the Parents that enquires, the fault is their
own , that the Child is no:moreob:ervant unto them ; and if
cj be there , I lay, they are too much Lordly over him or her, or
their Children, and over-awe them, ancUeep them in too
much fubjeaion 5 ir be thePlanetimpediting, 1 fay, they are
ring in aChriftian liberty , that they give tbeir Children noen-
couragement,or (new them any countenancc,&c. It (S he there
in the attendant , I blame the: Parent enquiring, and rell him,
he is too too jealous , and too miftruftfull of the aaions of his
or their Children , that yhe beleeves lyes and calumnies againft
his or their Ghildren,thit fimpfe people fool him in his humour,
and befot him with vain reports, &c.

Of the quality and nature of the Difeafe.
Although formerly I have briefly given directions herein,
yet now 1 hold it fit to be more copious, and defire the Learner
that lie will contrail what I write into fuch a Method as may
bill pleafc his ownPfnnfie; and be inibled to make th»« belt
life of ic for his own advantage. When 'therefore you h ive 1
edited your Figure , confider what Planet is fignificator of the
Difeafe j and if you do finde"hro be figniricato;, heproiu-
ccth continued and tedious Sickneffes, quarten Agues, Cough?,
I tonfumptions , &c. If he be in SI or in m with J or^; or
I Coiibult, or if h be with violent fixed Scarres , he afflicts the
i ftlt party with pcllilent and dangerous Fevers , and it may be
oouWed ( where iufpition of Poyfon is) that the Sick hath been
I iotbvoured to' be Poyfoned , or huh taken fome porion equi-
tolenrtoPoyfon.
Mien T? 'is in Signs of the fiery Triplkiry , as Y Si / , he

uule and matter of the Difeafe gtowes from fome cold and
I moill caufe or matter, ordiltemper; and this more afluredly
if 5 or D , who are moift Planets , have together with him any
Unification in the Difeafe , the matter then afflicting or caufe
of the difeafe is more grofs and vicious with long Paroxifmes.,
with ebbing and flowing of the Difeafe j the fick party is a|-

npHe afcendant. and V in , together with S poficcd in

was ftiort of lhture, corpulent, of* good complexion, and rud-
dy, frertt countenance ; his fatneflfe I conceive from the North
Latitude of?, which was about one degree; as alfo, that the
degrees afcending were in the Tennes of o, in an aycry Signe,
and in the Face or Dtcanate of '? , no* policed in a watry S gne,

The Sigw^C'ittr of the Servant was <? peculiarly in this Figure,
although many times j (hall fignifie a fagiivt Servant: The
Servant wis a young Fellow of about nineteen, a well fet Fallow,

that now d", the SigmfUaror of the F-low was in the fame

in a Wcftern Signe, but South qjarrer of Heave*); it if
true that Ji hath fotue relation to the South quarter, and J~ to
the North.
- judged from hence, that the Servant went wdUard at hii

THE true refo!u:»on of this Qjftion depends much
upon a right unfcilhnding, what 1 relation the querent
hath to the party ei quired of, for joa have oft read in

In this Judgment we finde 0 tord of the eleventh ( which

jnent them for fome certain time , out that it'ftiould not con-
tinue very long , for that neither the 0 or J> were fixed. The
truth is , he had Irijb Forces came over , which much tardned

hold if the Lord' of the eleventh houfe do apply unto the Lord

If you finde the Lord of the eleventh in an angle Received,
judge the thing'fliall come topafs as be would wifh.
If you finde the Receiver of tpecjifyofit ion ofthe I in a com-

If the lame Receiver be in a rnovaNe-Sign i he (hall onely hap
the name , or a probability of hiVirig thereof , or elfe very little
of it .• but if the fame Receiver be m a fixed Sign, he'/hail rnvc
the thing whole and compleat'.- but if tjie Receiver of the » be
infortunate , the matter (hall receive damage or hurt , after chat,
lie hat h the fame, or is in poflellion thereof.
If you finde the Receiver ofthe D received , he (hall likcwife

- Q Ef° r * Y ow Pfoeetd to any particular Direction of the rive
Jj Hilt£Hp4li placet , you psght generally to confider the
ffrtngth of the Pofitufe of heaven, and therein whether the
degree afcending, the Lord of ihcGcniturc, the© or » , or
the light of the tiroe are extreamly afHiAed , &c. for thofc ar-
gue no long life : it were therefore in v,u'n to frame long Du
rectioiu upon that Nativity..
However , that which is principally conlidsrable , find ought,
if pofliblcto be obtained , is', juditioufly to examine the Nati
vilics of the Parents of the Childe , and whether the Signifies
urs of Children in them arc ttrong yea or not ; for as the good-
nc tie of fruit depends upon the temperament of the root, fo
- |fo Children ', whofe Parents have unfortunate Significaisn.
do dye upon a. fmall iickneftc , &c. hue fich they arc nor ufu-
ally attainable, yow may proceed according to the Method fol-
lowing :
I : !ii>, confider the degree afcending, which molt properly
hath lignificatiun of Life, whether it be . fortunate or not \ its
then forcu.iate when in the tcrmcs or 11 gn , or in the ¥ 01 A of
a benevolent Planet ; and fo on the contrary unfortunate , when
tithe r locally an infortline vitiates the degree afcending , orb/
hislJ or f afpeft « or when many violent fixed Stars of the nv»
ture of the Lord of the eight, do at ife with the degree afcend-
ing , or are wch or neer the Luminary of the time. If accord-
ir.g to thefe rules you finde the Afcendant fortunate , the Childc
may live p It his infancy ; but if affl.&ed , he hardly efwpci his
vet y infancy.
Secondly , the Lord of the Afcendant is to be cor.fidcrcd , for
if he be F.flentially ft ong , free from Cornbuition , ll'.trograd.i-
tio:i «nj *t\i 5ion , fwifc in motion , not strbrted by the u llup-
py sA fcc^s of thofc Pianets who are either naturally unfortu-
due, or 3cciden:aliy by poficion , vi-v if they hi not impeJi-
tcd by tlk Lords of the eighth twelfth, fourth or fixth houfei, ir

eft he Afcendant Combo(t ; , or the degree afcending affi^d, sr>,
goes (hon life, fo faith S*k**fr.
Thirdly , have fpcciall regard to the 0 and D , cTpcctaUy
of the 0 , if the Hirth be by day j or of the P , if it be by night ;
for if either of theft be ft rongau^weU drifted , ortnagood
boufc, and in a favourable afpect of ehherof the Fmtmt, it*
an argument the Native rasy lorg live ; iF other wife , they deny
long life: for it** generally oblcryed, that when the 0 and &
arc partitly in 6 with the I* t c *rt**ts, that then they are very
unfortunate; nor for the rooft part do thofe who are born ci-
ther epon the very Change or full D live long.or continue health,
foil; for they who are born upon the full r , dyeb) eicelfe,
or too great abundance of moyfture ; they in the change of {he
> , for want of humidity , or by reafon of too oiuch drintffe :
yet the wcakeft bodicf , moil fcnalland tnoft fickly , are ufuilly
brought forth upon the change of the J>. However , the
tunti do fiy , that if the Lstmiwits are in partill 6 or <P i e«u
to a minute , and a Fmnge , % it.. U or 9, in the Afc n lant , tbii
then it's npt only an argument the Child (hall live, butalfobe

If h be Siptifitrtter of Manners and U be joyned with bin

therefore you muft not judge the Manners Saturnine , but to

to ail stunner of villany , ditlVoiblinc* both with Cod and

If with 1; the gentle Planet 9 is commixed, nnd he well
fortified , he demonstrates a man little given to women .. :.o:
ambitious , or delighting in pleafur&ble things or petlons,
delighted to be in the company of aged men , cuftcrc, cnviou«.

Of the meafure of time in Directions,
BEfoic I handle this point, I muft give this general! Inftm-
ction to the younger fonnes of Art , that in judging of the
effect* depending upon any Direction , they maturelytonfidcr
the age of the Native , for events arc to be accommodated nmo
the differences of times, and therefore one ftiould extrcamly de-
ceive himfelf , that upon any llrong Ditiction of the Afcendant
or mid-heaven to the A or or d of 9 or 5> , fliould pre-
dict Marriage unto a Native that is then but three , four or five
yeers of age ; how much, I fay, fhould the Artrft miffe the mark
if he fliould attribute that action to an Infant , of which he can-
not then be capable; or wbat a madntffe were it to predict to
an aged man the hegetciag of aChild, u hen in reafoti it fclf,
and by reafon of hiscxtreamfeeblenciTe, no fuch thing can or
may be expected j we muft therefore prognosticate things pof-
fib'e and naturflll , befitting and agreeing unto< very one , ac-
cording to the difference of his yeers , &c. We mull alfo in all
our predictions have the world to underfhnd , thai the com-
mon or generall fate of any Nation or place , is of more effica-
cy then any ones particular: we muft alio cor.fi dtr the Rtg on
where any one is born, if we will cxquifitely Judge of the fn;'pc
and fo;m of the Native., and of the manners of hisMinde, &c.
ever corifidering 'he moft powerful! Ci.ufe, &c%
But now we come to handle the meafure of time in Directi-
ons , wherein there are at this day three feverall Opinions 5 yet
not fuch as do trnke any great difference in the matter.
The opinion of Ftofomty hath continued fince his time untill
this I a ft Age without any contradiction; and it was thus: If
you would direft the Afcendant in any Narivi'y , yon muff, per-
form k by the oblique afcentions belonging to the place where
the Birth was : the words of Ttolomtj lib. 4. CApt. ult. are the fe

fcendant in every Nativity is to be directed by the oblique a-
fecntion'i of the Climate; the mid- heaven by the right afcenti-
ons ; the meafure of time is by allowing fo every degree of the
t/Kqmtor one yeer , for every minute thereof fix daye?, &c. J u
our Nativity, f*g. 500. the Afcendant is 6'. r/,^, the oblique Thtfirfi \\>ay
afcf ntion belonging thereunto , in the latitude of 5 ? . where the of mtafamv
Birth w is , is 3 1 2. 10. I would .know in what fpace of time the time,

According to the meafure of time by Ptolemy, eleven degrees
gives eleven yeers , 5 s. min. give eleven moncths , (or every five
minutes give one moneth ; fo then in the latter end of the twelfth
yccr.rhis Native's Afcendant came to theTermes of 3 ; you may
fee what it fhould fignifie if you look in the Chapter of Dirt-
ctions, what the hov;,fcope to the Tcrnits of 6 prcnotes.

ced from the fimple motion of the 0 , but from his true or ap-

to she appir er.e motion of the 0 at time of die birrh according
to his l ight «fcemion?,and not oblique atarions of the Region.

Take the light afcention of the 0 at the hour of thebirih,
as if it we.c at noon ; adde agiin the apparent diurnal! motion
of the 0 for the next day and fame hour,and cake his , i£»ht afcen-

what rcmaines is the d.rTerence of the revolution of the M.

cepted for the mcafii! e of, time for one yeer.
In our Na[iv j ty , pug. 500. the place of the 0 is 6. 37* ^ M

So then here is 54. minutes and no more, and this proportion

for cximple:I would know the jufl

If I take ihrce hundred fixty rive dayes , or one whole yeer

In diurnall Profe&ions , one Sign is given to two dayes three

I will ouely proceed to annUall Profe&ions, holding this
opinion, That if one (hould follow the nicenefle of the AncitnU

But to come neerer to the matter , Projections do roanifeft
what yecrs are like to be happy , what unhappy , by the Profe-

thofe houfes or Signcs were Radically wHI fortified and fortuna-

Again , Profcttions do (hew who is the Lord or Oovernout
of the veer -, and he is no other the i ihe Lord of that Sign
who r.icends; as if the beginning of a Sign afcend , then one
Planet may be Vominus ^i, or Lord of tharyecrj bunl the
middle of a Sign afcend , then there will be two l ords , ofo
that Planet who rule* thofe firft fifteen degrees afcendmg , and
he that rules the next fifteen degrees fucceding; where nore.you
cannot cxpeft the Direaion of any SigmjicMor in a ProjeBiond

Vou muft judge of the erTe&s and force of ?r»feUions , as you
did in the preceding Directions, confidering what die Signify

fW the firft place confidcr the Sign attending in the ProfcM.
ott , what place it had in the RacH.v whether it was one of the
four Angles, or Succedmts , orCadents; whofe Houfe ic was,
which of die Planets is exalted therein, of whof? Triplie(ty,whe-
ther a good ar evill Planet was therein at the Radix , or if© or
the Ar.tifcion of any Planei was therein ; orwhthera goad
or an- infdnunate Planet beheld that' S gn , and with what
afped; and whciher out of a Sign comminding or obeying,
or that agrees or difagrees in nature ..or whether in be a Sign
of long or (h >rt afcen ions j or whether that part „ which is
now the cufp of the houfe , is with any of the more noMe fixed
Stars; or whether the Degrees artfing are of thofe we call Light,
Deep, Pitted, Dirk, Cloudy.or Azimene.augmeuting or dccrea :
fing Fortune, &c.
For if the Sign of the Trtfcfthn , as well in the Nativity as
in this Pi ogre ftlonall Revolution be free from misfortune , and
the Lord of that Sign DirecV in both Figures, and in a Sign
of his own nature (.whether the Geniture was ! nofturnall of
diurnal! ) If, I fay, I he be ftrong in any of his own eflentiall
dignities, be in a good houfe of heaven, as well in the 'SaMm
as in the Annnall Figure Of the Revolution of the 0 , to his
place in the Ratixi ic is then a fure argument that the Native
(haUfuily afcomplifli fuch things' to his own content, as the
Lord of the yeer had Signification of in the Radix ; and it fur*
ther intimates, a ftrong conftitutiou of body, liability of m'nde,
find promifes in the general! that the yeer fhall be a fuccesfull
one. You may , if you pleafe, together with this judgement, for
the health of the body, confidcr every ycauhefe five things,
which hy experience I have found very true.
1. The Sign of the P'tft^hn*
2. The timet tmo which tHi lUrofcofe comet.

By consideration whereof , you may exadiy knew the /late

You muft uext in order confider the Lord of the yeer who

as ufuuily it will be fo 5 then you mult iimir.urito each hit

I look for 284 in my Tabic of the dayes of the yeer , I finde
1&4. under the Moneth of June , and againft it on the left hand
and firlt column 29. So tiien I fay % ruleth that yeer untill
the 29. or/«^ : and chen Y following X v and & being Lord
of V , hz governeth the rem linder of the yeer until! the 19. of
St]i;t,hl>tr , which was th< birth day. So that as you finde two
Lords of the yeer, fo rnult you haveconfideration to both Pla-
nets, vi<,. 3 ' t urco U as long as he rulcrn, afterwards unto •

l,v d of the Teer, Pyaftftitu/tll
, If the lord of the Yeer was in the ^VftrOnfi , but weak lJJL„
in u- revoauion, it imports that in that yeer the indeavours ' *
of the Native will be but weak, and his Anions according to
flie proi or ;ion of that infelicity which at pieient he fnrTers. But
» in the Ra iix the Lord of the year was anforiunhte and im^
Pedicea , hut in the profcftionall revnlmion is well difpofed and
»w»g , 11 portends moderate fioodoe/Te unto him whofe revo-
lution .1
7»S The n ff^ S *f
lution vba then handle, yet ftall be fear none ill , for the vi;
cor and force of the Lord of the yeer in i Annuall affaires ,«
5" y powcrfull. But if the Lord of the yeer by Profell»n and in
the LuHx. and in the 0 hUAnnuall revolution be imputed,
c indicates prejudice w the Native, according to their proper
Signification: together with this, confer in whv.hou.eor
olace the Lord of the yeer is in , « weUinthe **A*asRcvo-
Futionai! Figure, whether he.beil.org, or impeded ; if he
be powerful! in two of the Figures ; he portends good , and I thft
the Native (hall have profit and live in good eftiraation if he
be well difpofed in the two Figures , but not many configura-
tion unto the benevolent, the Native Ihall obtain fome kmde
of coodnefle , but \t will be leiTe then expefted , nor Will it con-
rinue. 1 f «n both Figures he be unfortunate and cadent,bur yet lS
in afpeft with good Planets, . ii: argues but afraall increafeof
Eflire, yet verily ir performes fomewhar. ,
If the Lord of the yeer be impcdited of tbe Infortypcfin
Nth Fiaures , and was alfo in the lUdtx in O or <? of tbcMa-
Icvolentst it portends idvcrficy, danger , and many enormities
n that veer. Dm »f that Malevolent Planet haftens to corobu.
(tion.or to be Retrograde, it implies fome unreafonablc nc-
ceffitv (hall opprefle him of the nature of thofe JP lanets ; and if
[liey be Angnlar . the greater (hall be his misfortune. If the
I ord of tlie yeer in both theft Figures be not conftitotcd in an
AnPle , but is ill dignified j yet norwithltanding behold the
Afcendaut , the before mentioned, evill (hall not be fopublique.
but fliall be onely taken notice of by his own friends j but if
the Planets be in the z, 6, 8, or i ». this rmfchance (hall be bo-
thered and kept -fccrec.fo that none (hall know of if; yet at thofe
Planets are removed from the Afcendant , and then fome Planet

made, though at prtfen't it feemes to1)e kept c\ok,&c. 1 his is as
mudi as I have found verified by experience of fome eminent
Nativities , which I freely pnb'.iih for benefit of Pofterity, d c.
