占星警句 | 赫尔墨斯《占星百言》 The Centiloquium of Hermes Trismegistus


图文 | 洛语尽
整整两个月未更了哈,今天终于“出摊”了,更新译自托名赫尔墨斯(Hermes Trismegistus)的一篇文章。最近刚好在校正之前的赫尔墨斯《占星文集》,然后昨天偶然翻到放了几年的这篇东东,想着好久没有更新了,所以今天翻译了出来稍作更新,都是关于本命、、择时、问卜甚至是世运的一些简单的格言警句。虽说托名赫尔墨斯,实则都不是本人所写,按照我的直觉,这个应该是成文于中世纪晚期或文艺复兴早期的时候,比如其中对太阳光束下的界定、日核为吉等,这些都是波斯阿拉伯中世纪占星师在干的事情。
除了校正,最近差不多都扎在阿拉伯占星早期著作中,比如整理翻译部分阿布马谢的《对占星学的详细介绍(The Great Introduction to Astrology)》,这可能是赫尔墨斯占星学派现存的最详实的一部占星学著作,分量十足的一大部头,比菲米克斯的《数学八卷》还厚,不过却是非常形而上的一本书。年初翻译完曼尼留斯(Marcus Manilius)《天文书(Astronomica)》的时候才发现,《数学八卷》好些篇幅的来源比成书时间早很多(这也让我萌生了重新校正此书的念头,当然这也是以赫尔墨斯学派理论汇编的一本书),虽然我们一直在谈希腊占星,但是大多希腊占星作者都并非希腊人,而是埃及还有其周边地区的占星师,而当我重新校正赫尔墨斯《占星文集》的时候,借由其中与《数学八卷》甚至是瑞托瑞尔斯《占星概要》重叠的部分比对,对于赫尔墨斯《占星文集》的成书时间又产生了疑惑,至少其中的很多篇幅可能比早前人们想象的要早。就这样,打开新的大门纠正自己的一些“偏见”的时候,同时也陷入了新的困惑中,比如,现在最让我困惑的是星座,其各种禀赋本来如何,基于何种逻辑分配,基于恒星背景还是基于节气变化,还有宫位和宫主星的概念,因为在整个希腊时期其实是没有“宫主星”的概念的,更别妄谈宫主飞宫了,所以“宫”的概念如何衍生的等等,然而,一时半会儿大多也无解,所以姑且先这样僵着吧。
好了,今天稀泥就和到这里,我们下期见。
赫尔墨斯《占星百言》The Centiloquium [attributed to] Hermes Trismegistus
1.The Sun and Moon next unto God, are the life of all things living: Yet many nativities have no hyleg; yet because the Sun and Moon friendly behold their ascendant, or be therein free from affliction, their lives shall be the longer continued.
日月近乎造物主,是为万有生物之性命:然而还有很多命盘没有生命主(hyleg);也有[很多人]因为太阳和月亮友好地注视上升,或是落在上升,远离刑克,他们才得以长寿。
2.All diurnal nativities are strengthened by the Sun, when well beheld by the fortunes; nocturnal of the Moon, when she is so fortified. If this happen not, yet if good planets be found in angles, the nativity shall be good.
当太阳得到吉星很好地注视时,所有白天出生之人因为太阳而得以强健;而月亮对于晚上出生的人亦是如此,当她得到强化时。若非这种情况,而是好的星体落在角宫,那么出生也是好的。
3.When Mars, lord of the ascendant, shall be posited in the tenth, it confers on the native dignity and power; which will be accompanied with injury and cruelty; and may therefore be said, a misfortune, rather than happiness.
当火星,[作为]上升的主星,落在第十个[宫位/星座],它会赋予命主地位的和权力;但这会伴随着伤害和残酷;因此可以说是,不幸,而非幸福。
4.Jupiter in good aspect with the infortunes, changes their malevolency into good. Venus cannot effect any such thing, unless assisted by Jupiter; therefore in procuring good, and prohibiting ill, Jupiter is found much better than Venus.
木星与凶星形成好的相位,会把它们的凶性转为好的。除非得到木星的支持,不然金星无法影响任何这种事情;因此,对于至善止恶,木星比金星更为有用。
5.The artist cannot make a commixion of the significations of the stars, before he know their friendships and enmities, which is threefold. First, according to their nature. Secondly, according to their houses. Thirdly, according to their aspects.
在没有厘清星体的敌友关系之前,占星师很难把它们的寓意结合起来,而其敌友关系有三种:第一,根据它们的性质;第二,根据它们的庙宫;第三根据它们的相位。
6.Venus is opposite to Mercury. He comprehends languages and discipline; she delights and pleasures, Jupiter the like to Mars; this coveteth mercy and justice; that, impiety and cruelty.
金星与水星相对:水星喜欢语言和戒律,而金星贪图欢愉和享受;同理,木星与火星相对:木星倾向于仁慈和正义,而火星倾向于亵渎和残忍。
7.Make the Sun, or any of the superiors to signify princes and great persons. Scribes and rusticks, [are shown by] the inferior planets, and chiefly the Moon.
太阳或外行星代表王公权贵。而内行星,尤其是月亮,代表寻常百姓。
8.The signification of the conjunction, is not lessened by an aspect; but the aspect is by the conjunction; as having lesser force, than it.
合相不会因为其它相位而削弱;反而,相位会因为合相被削弱;因为相位的力量比合相小。
塔君备注:注意,这里的相位指代托勒密主相位,严格意义上来讲,合相并非相位。
9.Give not judgment, neither elect anything, while Scorpio is ascending, neither when the angles are oblique or crooked, or if Mars be in the ascendant; the event will prove cross, and the matter come to no good end; for Scorpio is a sign of falsity.
当天蝎处于上升,或者当四轴是倾斜或弯曲(crooked),或是火星落在上升之时,不作任何判断或抉择;因为这事情会是曲折的,不会有好的结果;因为天蝎是个虚假的星座。
塔君备注:这里的“弯曲(crooked)”,指的应该是落在短上升星座。
10.Good planets, afflicted of the infortunes from the sixth or twelfth houses, signify ill.
好的星体受到来自六宫或十二宫的凶星的刑伤,代表着病害。
11.Rumours spread when the Moon is in the first face of Scorpio are false, and knavishly forged.
月亮落在天蝎座的第一个面区间/十分度时散布的传言是假的,是恶意编造的。
12.The judgments of astrologers are not many times true, by reason of the error of their instruments, or querents’ ignorance; or when the Sun is near the midheaven, or when the arguments of promise and denial of the thing are equal in the figure.
占星师的判断并非每每都是正确的,因为其仪器工具的错误或问卜者的无知;或是当太阳靠近中天时,或当盘中正反两面的征象依据对等之时。
13.While the Moon shall be South descending in Scorpio or Pisces, begin not then to build; for a fabrick then erected quickly comes to ruin.
不要在月亮向南下降落在天蝎或双鱼之时开工建造,不然房子会很快塌毁。
14.Mercury being strong and in proper places of the Heavens, well configurated of other stars or planets in nativities, denotes convenient dignity to the native thereby; but Mercury of himself is a planet weak.
出生时水星有力且落在空中合适的位置[即,后天宫位中],且与其它星体形成良好的配置时,对命主而言意味着地位;但是水星本身是个虚弱的星体。
15.Whosoever contendeth with another & overcomes when the significators are in signs bicorporeal, gets a great victory; if overcome, looseth much; for then the good or evil is doubled.
凡与他人竞争者,当征象星落在双体星座时,不管输赢得失都会加倍;因为这时吉凶加剧。
16.Give not judgment before thou knowest the intention of the querent; for many ask they know not what, nor can they express what they intend.
不明问询者意图前不要作出判断,因为很多人不知所问,亦难言其意。
17.When thou shalt be interrogated for a father, behold the fourth house; for a brother, the third; of a son, the fifth; of a wife, the seventh: But if for a sick person, behold the ascendant only.
有关父亲的问询,你要看第四宫,有关兄弟姐妹的,看三宫;子女的,看五宫,配偶的,看七宫;但有关病人的,只要看上升。
18.When the Moon shall come to the quadrate of the fortunes or infortunes, and the testimonies of the helps or hinderances of the matter doubtful; it is to be doubted that the strength of the bad planets will more impede, than the others can assist.
当月亮来到吉星或凶星的四轴,并且事情有利或不利的征象难以定夺时:应该认为不好的星体的不利作用比其它星体的有利作用更大。
19.In the beginning of journeys, and returns therefrom, let not the Moon be in the ascendant, fourth, or ninth houses, although she be not afflicted. In the entering of a city, place her neither in the ascendant, second, or fourth houses.
在出行与返回之时,月亮最好不要落在上升、四宫、九宫,哪怕她没有受克。在进入一座城市时,月亮最好不要落在上升、二宫或四宫。
20.There are three ways of discovering the accidents proper to men; viz. from the geniture of the native, birth of his first child, or by a question propounded, with which the mind was solicitous and affected.
可以通过三种方式了解一个人的吉凶祸福,也就是,通过他的出生命盘,通过他的第一个孩子的出生命盘,还有通过起心动念产生的问询[卜卦]。
21.Every beginning when the Moon shall be joined to a Retrograde planet will soon be destroyed, and if she shall be otherwise impedited, the mischief will happen the sooner.
事情的开始之初,如果月亮入相位逆行的星体,将会很快败落,如果她是受克的,则事情会崩塌得更快。
22.Make Saturn and Sun significators of kings and princes, with the planet, and planets of the tenth; but their helpers take from the eleventh, and the assistants of vulgar persons from the second house.
土星和太阳还有十宫有关的星体用作王权贵的征象星,十一宫为其援手,而对于普通人,其援手为二宫。
23.When a king or prince sets forth to journey, be sure reject that time when Cancer ascends.
如若王公权贵意欲出行,切勿选在巨蟹上升之时。
24.Gemini and Sagittarius obey the head and tail of the Dragon, more than other signs: therefore do they work more mischief in those signs than they do in any other.
双子和射手比其它星座更适合南北交点,因此,它们在这两个星座中也会比在其它星座更凶。
塔君备注:这让人想到了今年的新冠还有零三年的非典。
25.When either Taurus or Libra ascend in women’s nativities, and Mars therein, the native will be immodest and unchaste; the same if Capricorn shall ascend.
在女性命盘中如果金牛或天秤落在上升,并且火星也落在上升,那么这女人将是粗鲁淫荡的;上升摩羯亦是如此。
26.The virtues of the planets are received by the Sun, when he is posited either in the ascendant or midheaven, in conjunction of them. The Moon in the night-time receives them also, if in the aforesaid places, she be joined to them.
如果太阳落在上升或中天,与星体合相,那么星体的作用会被太阳尽收。月亮在晚上位于上述位置与星体结合时亦是如此。
27.Jupiter dissolves Saturn’s malice; and Venus dissolves Mars’s.
木星可解土星的凶性,金星可解火星的凶性。
28.When a question is propounded of a woman, take Venus as her natural significatrix: but more particularly the seventh house. But if a question be asked of an Enemy, respect the twelfth house; but, then more particularly, the seventh also.
在问及女性的问询中,取金星作为她的自然征象星,而七宫为后天征象。但如果是问及仇敌的,则首先是十二宫,然后才是第七宫。
29.When any one goeth to war, especially a king, let the ascendant be one of the houses of the superiour planets, or of the Sun. And let the lord of the ascendant, and the Sun be potent in the figure; but the lord of the seventh weak and unfortunate.
[择时中]如若有人即将征战沙场,尤其是国王,选在上升落在外行星或太阳的庙宫。并且让上升的主星和太阳处于有力的位置,而让七宫的主星处于无力和糟糕的位置。
塔君备注:真TM像中二的诅咒,哈哈哈哈。
30.The Moon increasing in light and motion, and in conjunction of Saturn or Jupiter, is generally good in all things: but if she be diminished in light, ’tis ill; understand the contrary wholly, when she is in conjunction of Venus and Mars.
月亮增光加速,并且结合土星或木星之时,通常事事有利;但如果换作减光,则不利;当其结合金星和火星之时,则情况完全相反[即,增光不利减光有利]。
31.Let not Jupiter be under the Sun beams, or otherwise impedited, when you either pawn or lend things; which if he shall be so, and not received of the planet impediting, there will be little or no hopes of redemption.
典当或出借东西时,最好不要让木星处于太阳光束下,或是受到其它方式的阻碍;不然如果这样,并且没有得到造成阻碍的星体的接纳的话,那么东西收回的希望就十分渺茫。
32.Fortunate planets going to conjunction or aspect of one of the infortunes, in any figure, diminish their evil influence. If the figure be good, the greater good they do; if ill, the lesser. But the malevolents in square or opposition of the benevolents diminish and abate of their virtues, the other aspects hinder not.
任何结构中,吉星合相或成相位凶星,会降低凶星的不利影响。如果结构是好的,那么它们会带来更大的好处;如果不好,则更少。但如果凶星四分或对分吉星,则会削弱吉星的吉性,其它相位则不然。
33.Saturn passing out of one sign into another, causes strange apparitions in the heavens, which the Arabians term Assub; or certain other signs of a Fiery nature.
土星离开一个星座进入另一个星座,使得天空产生奇异的景象,阿拉伯人称之为“Assub”,或是[进入]其它具有激烈性质的星座时。
34.The conjunction of Jupiter and Sun produceth temperate air, chiefly, when celebrated in aerial signs. From the conjunction of Saturn & Sun, comes cold; and from conjunction of the Sun & Mars, in the Spring season, proceeds a cloudy dark air, it happening in double bodied signs, whence diseases very frequently follow.
木星和太阳的合相产生温和的天气,尤其是在风象星座中。而太阳和土星的合相则带来寒冷的天气;太阳和火星的合相,在春季,产生阴暗的天气,这个发生在双体星座中,病害也常常随之而至。
35.In summer, when the Sun enters the terms of Mars, heat is caused; in winter, drought, and scarcity of rain and waters.
在夏天,当太阳进入火星界,产生热;而在冬天,则会出现干旱,雨水稀少。
36.In the nativities and questions of men, make hyleg, and alchocoden, and their directions; chiefly, in questions concerning kings and great persons, by which their accidents are chiefly known, let them be good, or evil.
在命盘和问询[卜卦]中,注意生命主和寿主星还有它们的行进方向;尤其是,关于国王和权贵的,可以借此明了他们的祸福吉凶,是好是坏。
37.If the ascendant be fortunate, and the lord thereof unfortunate, it indicates a sound and healthful body, but an afflicted mind. But if the contrary happen, judge the contrary.
如果上升是吉利的,而上升的主星不吉利,这意味着健康的身体但受扰的心神。如果情况反过来,则判断也相反。
38.Always note the configurations of the stars, not by their signs, but orbs.
注意星体的结构配置,不以它们的星座而以容许度论。

40.The Part of Fortune with ill planets in the fourth, ninth, or tenth houses, denote death to the sick.
福点合相凶星落在四宫、九宫和十宫时,意味着病人的死亡。
41.When the significator of either good or evil shall be stationary, and angular, it shall be more durable. But it shall be the more mutable and variable, if the significator shall be cadent from angles, and retrograde.
当征象星,不论吉凶,处于停滞和角宫之时,事情将会更为持久。而如果征象星远离角宫[即,果宫]和逆行时,则会更为无常和多变。
42.The lord of the second house hath the same strength in hurting, as the lord of the eighth; the lord of the sixth, the same with the lord of the twelfth.
对于危害,二宫主星与八宫主星作用相同;而六宫主星则与十二宫主星作用相同。
43.Mars occidental in Cancer not beheld of Saturn, Jupiter, Venus, or Sun, makes a good phlebotomist. But if Mars shall be in Capricorn, it makes a destroyer of men, and one that delights to shed blood.
火星西入于巨蟹座,没有土星、木星、金星或是太阳的注视,产生好的刺络医师[/放血医师]。但是如果火星落在摩羯座,这会产生杀人越货者,嗜血杀戮的人。
44.The best artist in the world may chance to err, when he mistakes a true significator for a false one.
当把真正的征象星弄错时,世上最好的占星师也会出错。

当土星凌驾于金星之上,并且位于她的的四分位置[即,土星右相位四分金星],这会使得命主寡廉鲜耻,是个十足的仇女者。但如果金星凌驾于土星之上[即,金星右相位四分土星],他会是个妇女之友。
46.If in any nativity Mercury shall be in the ascendant, oriental, and swift; the native will be eloquent, and learned in the liberal sciences: the same happeneth, if he shall be in Sagittarius in his proper terms.
任何命盘中,如果水星落在上升,东出且急行,那么命主将是能言善辩和博学的,同样,如果它落在射手座落在自己的界中,亦是如此。
47.The first of the angles is the ascendant: the second, the M.C., the third, the seventh house, the fourth Imum Coeli. But of the rest of the places, the eleventh is first, then the second; after that, the fifth; then the ninth, and third; but the sixth, eighth, and twelfth, are accounted the worst.
角宫首重为上升/命宫,第二为中天,第三为七宫,第四为天底。但其余的位置,十一宫为首,然后是二宫,接着五宫,还有九宫,三宫;但是六宫、八宫和十二宫则是最坏的。
48.Mars’s influence is never abated, unless by the interposure of a benevolent planet.

上升命度,或是发现一个星体落在最后一度,征象星必须取用下一个星座的;但如果一个星体落在同一星座的29°中,其力量要从三个方面考虑,即,它所在的位置,还有前后位置。
塔君备注:这个应该是指在卜卦中。
51.We should consider of future contingents from the conjunctions of the planets, but things past or present from their separations.
我们应该通过入相位来判断后面发生的事情,而通过出相位了解过去或现在发生的事情。
52.When Jupiter shall be in Cancer removed from the ascendant, and no way impedited of any other star, the native will be rational, and very expert in science; but delighting to lead a recluse life, and shall not have the due applause of his learning.

53.In the world many evils will happen, when in one month there shall happen an eclipse of both luminaries; chiefly in those places subject to the sign in which they happen.

54.When the Moon shall be in the combust way, or peregrine, in the beginning of a journey, the person will either fall sick in his journey, or shall be otherwise grievously troubled and molested.
在旅程开始之际,如果月亮处于燃烧之路,或是游走的话,那么这人会在旅途中生病或会有其它严重的困扰和麻烦。
55.It behooves the astrologer to consider the time in directions of the planets; but in the fixed stars it is not so needful.
对于星体,应该考虑其行进方向;而对于恒星,则不必如此。
56.The father’s estate shall pass to the son, if Saturn shall be fortunate, and in friendly aspect of the lord of the ascendant: but this more freely, if Saturn shall be lord of the fourth.
如果土星得吉,并且与上升的主星形成良好的相位,则父业子承;尤其如果土星是为四宫主星,则更是如此。
57.Fortunate planets being in signs wherein they have no dignity, their benignity is translated another way.
吉星处于它们没有禀赋尊贵的星座,那么它们的吉性会以另外的方式展现。
58.Mars almuten of a nativity, and not joined to good planets, signifieth the native to suffer by envy and hatred.
火星,作为命盘主星(almuten),没有结合好的星体,意味着命主会受妒忌仇恨的折磨。
塔君备注:这里,“命盘主星(almuten)”,这也是个千丝万缕以讹传讹的概念,后面有机会更新详解下。
59.The fortunate stars confer great felicity, when they shall be received of each other in their proper houses; and when the evil planets are so received, they refrain from doing much mischief.
吉星在自身庙宫中彼此得到接纳时,它们会给予极大的好运;而当凶星这样得到接纳时,它们会规避很多的不幸。
60.The native will be sickly and weak, when Saturn is elevated above Mars; but if Mars shall be elevated above Saturn, he shall be fat and lusty.
当土星凌驾于火星之上时,命主将是虚弱无力的;但如果是火星凌驾于土星之上的话,他将是又胖又壮的。
61.In men’s nativities, if the part of marriage shall fall in signs obedient; and in women’s in signs imperant, the woman shall rule the man, and the man shall obey; in other cases, the opposite.
男性命盘中,如果婚姻点落在服从星座中;而女性命盘中,落在命令星座中,则妻子管制丈夫,丈夫顺从妻子;其它情况则反过来。
塔君备注:北半球中,南方星座为服从星座,北方星座为命令星座,而南半球中,则反过来。
62.If the lords of the triplicity of the conjunction of the lights shall friendly respect each other, the first to the second, the second to the third, it shows eminent prosperity, and a freedom from sorrows.
如果两个光体结合[即,出生前的新满月]的三分主星彼此友好成相位,也就是,第一个和第二个,第二个和第三个,这意味着无比兴旺,没有忧虑。
63.Mercury in Pisces, in deep or pitted degrees, makes the native foolish and slow of speech; and if Jupiter shall be in the houses of Mars, in pitted degrees, he will be sordid and needy, and receive hurt from soldiers; but if in the houses of Saturn, chiefly Capricorn, and in such degrees, he will be morose, rigid, and odious to all men.
水星落在双鱼,位于深陷的或凹陷的度数,使得命主愚蠢而迟钝;如果木星落在火星的庙宫,落在凹陷度数,他将是肮脏而贫穷的,并且会受到士兵的伤害;但是如果落在土星的庙宫,尤其是摩羯,落在这种度数上,他将会是孤僻的、固执的、令人讨厌的。
塔君备注:这里的“深陷的或凹陷的度数(deep or pitted degrees)”,目前可见的可能曼尼留斯的《天文学》中,以田地喻星座,列举了各个星座中不健康的有害度数,但这个多见于阿拉伯中世纪占星师的著作中,比如阿布马谢、阿布鲁尼、阿卡比特等人的均有指涉,其中阿布马谢将其称之为井度(well degrees),而后面文艺复兴的威廉里利的《基督占星》中,也有指涉,不过所列度数都有些许差异。
64.Mercury in reception of Mars by houses, or if he shall be in aspect of him falling from an angle, the native will be a lover of hunting, and to play at dice and tables: but if they shall not be cadent, he shall prove an excellent soldier.
水星得到火星庙宫层面的接纳,或是如果水星处于火星的相位远离角轴[即,落在果宫],那么命主会喜欢打猎,喜欢骰子[赌博]和游戏;但是如果它们没有落在果宫中,那么他会是个优秀的士兵。
65.Planets under the Sun’s beams, or within twelve degrees thereof, are unfortunate, unless in the same degree with him, but when passed 12 degrees from him (existentes orientales) they are fortunate.
星体落在太阳光束下,或者说距其12°范围内,是不吉利的,除非与太阳落在同一度数上,但是过了12°后,它们则是吉利的。
塔君备注:从这里可以看出其实这个文本已经很中世纪化了,不可能是早于中世纪。
66.The North Node with the infortunes denotes terrible mischiefs, for he increases their malice; but with the fortunes he works good, and augments their benignity. But the significations of the Dragon’s tail are to be noted the contrary way.
北交点合相凶星预示着可怕的危害,因为它会加剧它们的凶性;但是合相吉星则会产生好的作用,增加它们的吉利度。南交点的寓意则与此相反。
67.Mercury in the sixth house of a nativity, the native shall change from one religion to another, & will have his felicity in part impedited by reason of his inconstancy.
命盘中水星落在六宫,命主容易摇摆不定反复无常,他的好运也会部分因其反复无常/见异思迁而蒙受损失。

当两个星座同时与同一事情有关时,第一个星座具有主要的征象作用。
69.Accept the beginning of every thing from the Moon, but the end from her dispositor.
月亮代表事情的开始,其定位星代表事情的结局。
70.If Jupiter in the revolution of the world shall be in his house, exaltation, or oriental in an angle, and otherwise freed from evil, he signifies plenty, [my author says penury, if time and ill handling have not abused him] of all things.
如果在俗世流年中,木星落在自己的庙宫、擢升、或东出于角宫,并且不受其它刑克,[我的作者说,如果世时和不良配置没有折磨它的话],那么他代表着所有事情的充足。
71.When the Moon and lord of the ascendant shall be impedited by the lord of the 8th, the sick person hath cause to fear.
当月亮和上升主星受到八宫主星的阻碍时,病人势必凶多吉少。

74.The Moon in ruminating signs joined to retrograde planets, it is not then good to purge; the potion will work upward to the patients injury.
月亮在反刍星座中入相位逆行的星体,这时最好不要清洗[/上药];药剂会产生反作用伤害病人。
塔君备注:反刍星座指的是金牛座和白羊座等其星座形象(如羊和牛)本身具有反刍功能的星座。
75.Oriental planets signifying either good or evil, perform their work speedily; occidental, more slowly.
东出的星体,不论所指是好是坏,其完成较快;西入的星体则较慢。

光体的合相度数位置便是日食的中位。
77.There will many wars and difficulties happen, when in a revolutional figure of the world, Saturn and Jupiter shall be in their exaltations.
在俗世流年盘中,土星和木星落在它们的擢升位置时,会有爆发很多的战争和危机。塔君备注:这似乎与前面的70有所矛盾。
78.Be wary and circumspect in your judgment, when a fortune is with a malevolent; nor be you overconfident that the malice of the infortune shall be averted.
当吉星合相凶星时,在判断时你要谨慎小心;也不要掉以轻心地认为凶星的凶性可以[因为吉星而]得以规避。
79.There are twelve signs, one of which is constantly ascending: the ascendant signifies the body, and the lord thereof the mind. Let not that sign ascend for your purpose, whose lord is impedited.
十二个星座中,其中正在升起的,上升星座代表身体,其主星代表理智/心神。[择时的时候]不要让主星受克的星座作为你的上升星座。
80.Planets in fixed signs show the matter durable; in bicorporeal signs, doubtful; in movable, convertible to good or evil.
星体落在固定星座中表明事情是持久的;在双体星座中,则期限难定;在基本星座中,不论事情好坏,都会速战速决。

对于意欲保密的事情,不要让月亮被燃烧,而是要远离燃烧。
82.When the Moon is in a fixed sign, neither cut out, or put on any new garments, chiefly in Leo, for ’it’s extreme dangerous,’it’s the same if she be in conjunction or opposition of the Sun, or impedited of the infortunes.
月亮落在固定星座时,不要裁剪或更换新的衣裳,尤其是在狮子座,因为这“这太危险了”,如果月亮与太阳合相或对分,或是受凶星刑克,亦是如此。
83.The Moon hath great power in all questions, except when Leo, Capricorn, or Sagittarius ascend: for either of those signs abate of her significations; chiefly Leo or Aquarius.
月亮在任何问询[卜卦]中都具有重要的作用,除上升落在狮子、摩羯或射手座之外,因为这些星座会削弱她的征象寓意,尤其是狮子座和水瓶座。
84.Saturn is under the Sun beams until he be 15 degrees distant from him. Understand the same of Jupiter.

92.Those doubts are soon resolved, that are propounded when the Moon and the planet to whom she applies are in signs, having voice, and in the first or third houses, or in opposition of them.
如果月亮及其所入相位的星体落在有声星座中,落在一宫或三宫,或它们的对宫[即,七宫和九宫],那么所问之事会很快解决。
塔君备注:除了水象星座外,其它都可称为有声星座,其中尤以人形星座为强发声星座。

星体的寓意会随着它们的结构配置和纬度产生变化。

月亮落在四宫、七宫、九宫和十二宫,表明了问询的真正意图:通过她与水星的出相位也可以得知这个。如果上升和月亮落在双体星座,那么可以确定问询的意图。
99.An infortune in his house or exaltation denotes the matter by him signified to come to a good end, but with delays: but if he shall be impedited in the ascendant, though in his house or exaltation, the matter will be obstructed, and come to an ill end.
凶星落在自己的庙宫或擢升位置,表明其所代表的事情会有好的结果,但会有所耽搁;但是如果它是受克落在上升,哪怕落在自己的庙宫或擢升位置,那么事情会受到阻碍,并不会有一个好的结果。
100.The event of every enterprise that is doubtful, is terminated by these significators, viz., by the fourth house and his lord, and the planet strong in the same; also by the light of the time and the lord thereof; and by the planet, and his dispositor to whom the said light of the time is conjoined.
