CHAP. VIII. The Lords of the circulations from the howers of the Natiuities.
THE Babilonians hold for a great secrete, the Circu∣lation of the Lord of the hower of the natiuitie? It is to be vnderstood, that the Lord of the said houre signifieth of the life as the ascendant, and the Lord of the hower following, of goods as of the second house: and the Lord of the third hower of bretheren as the third house, and so consequently of others.
In Reuolutions, they giue the Lorde of the hower of the natiuitie to the first yeere, the Plannet following to the second, and so consequently following the natural or∣der of the Planets. As if one were borne in the hower of Venus, that Planet should raigne the first yeere, the se∣cond yeere, Mercurie, the third, the Moone, the fourth, Saturne, the fift, Iupiter, the sixt, Mars, the seauenth Sol, the eyght, Venus, the ninth, Mercurie, and so by order. And you must note, that wee take heere the yeeres cur∣rant, and not complete, for to fit the sayde circulation of the Planets.
