☌ ♄ ♀ CHAP. X. Conj. of Saturn and Venus.

§ 1. An Aspect of uncertain revolution. 2. ♄ here always Direct 3. The Aspect found thrice sometimes in the same Sign. 4. The As∣pect's Character. 5. Comparatively a calm Aspect. 6. What kind∣ness it has for Cold. 7. Cold and its Vicissitudes, even in Winter, are dealt out by the Planets. 8. How this Aspect may be cold. Venus corniculated as the Moon. 9. Frest and Snow under ♄ ☉ at a Pla∣tick Distance, under ♄ ♀ at a Partile. 10. Planets too near, I or too remote, encourage cold. 11. This Aspect brings moisture with∣in the Triduum; yea at 10 degrees distance is responsible. 12 No great kindness for aquatick Signs, &c. A solid Astrology labour'd after. 13. The Symmetry and Co-incidence with the Rest, (not the nature of any one Aspect) does all. 14. This demonstrated by a Table of ♄ and ♀, and its moisture throughout the Zodiack 15. Iris more than Semicircular. Two Irides concentrical. Whether our Aspects do contribute? Why fewer Irides in Winter than in Summer. 16. Our Aspect's Hail. 17, 18. Meteors and Lightning. 19. Though Astrologers give us no such Item. 20. Several Objections against the Division of Signs into Fiery, Aiery, Watry, &c. though Leo may be termed a Fiery Sign. The true reason of Fiery, Watry, Windy In∣fluences. 21. Some Rules for Stormy Weather relating to this Aspect. 22, 23. Some little Objections answered.

§ 1. THe Conjunction of ☉ and ♄ hath its certain Returns, the ☌ of ♄ ♀ hath not so: For though ♄ is found to serve ☉, yet he doth not find himself obliged to observe ♀, because she is a Stragler; She must be oc∣cidental, and She must be Oriental, when She Lists; and whosoever will speak with her, must observe her Hours. Hence it comes to pass, that sometimes we find a year void of this Aspect, as A^o 1665. 1670. &c. But in lieu of that, sometimes we meet the Aspect twice in a Twelvemonth, as in the year 1664. 1669. &c. In the year 1652. we find the Aspect in May. In the year 1653. in July. In the year 1654. September. By this account at Two Months Distance. In the year 1655. it should fall out in Novem∣ber; but instead of that she makes such a Halt, that it is found in July, Four Months before, and reaches not November till Two years after.

§ 2. Here it is pretty to observe (and where is the Wisdom of God more seen, at least as first Mover, than in the Celestial Motions?) That ♀, though she Jerks back the space of a Month or Two, from where she was before, yet she is always found as to this Aspect with ♄ in progressive Mo∣tion. So that in July, A^o 1655. she is found to have got Ground more, than she had got in September, though a later Month of the year pre∣cedent.

§ 3. I do not know whether I may further observe, that in this progres∣sive Course the Aspect will be found, sometimes but once in a Sign, some∣times more than Once, viz. Thrice; or, if we may take in a Platique As∣pect, four times, as A^o 1662. 1663. 1664. or that the Distance of Two im∣mediate Aspects shall sometimes lye about 20 degrees, and sometimes not a Quarter of that Number.

§ 4. Astrologers put up, you remember ♄ ♃ ♀ for 3 cool Planets. Ac∣cordingly they will have us believe, that this Aspect is apt to produce in its Seasons, Cold and Snows; sudden Showrs in Summer; Cold and Rain in Spring and Autumn; cold Rain or Snow in Winter. Eichstad con∣sents. But my German speaks plainest, Reg. 9. that it commonly brings Cold, Moist, Unfriendly Weather with Snow or Rain.

§ 5. Observe here, I pray, that they speak of no Wind; nor do they speak of any violence. You see there is some difference between Pla∣nets Aspects. Verily there is so: there is some Sluggishness in ♄ and ♀, in comparison of •• and ♀, or, what we hasten to, ♄ and ♂.

§ 6. And as to their Cold, in the year 1658, Aug. 26. you may find in the Diary, uncomfortable Weather, which puts us in mind of the Un∣friendly Weather in the Character. There is mention of Cold on the 21. day. And on September 1, Cold and Showrs 1 On Sept. 2. (if there be not an Error in the Diary) Frost and Snow. A^o 1683. Sept. 2. again we find Frost morning. A^o 1656. Sept. 2, 3. Close and Cold. A^o 1659. Octob. 22. Frost, 26 hard Frost. A^o 1661. So October 14, 16. and 1563. in the Platique Aspect, die 26, 27, cold. 27, 29. Frost, 31. Cold. A^o 1664. Nov. 10, 11. Ice. 18. Frost, Ice. 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25. hard Frost and Ice—We go on, A^o 1657. Nov. 7, 8. Frost, 9. Hard Frost and Ice 10. Frost A^o 1660. Dec. 13, 14, 15. Frost, Fog. A^o 1662. Dec. 4, 5, Frosty, Fog on all parts in the days preceding, and subsequent. A^o 1667. Dec. 24, 25, 29, 31. Frost Mornings. A^o 1660. Dec. 20. Frosty days precedent and consequent, about 20 days together. A^o 1664. Jan. 24. Frost for a Week together. A^o 1666. Jan. 10, 11. Frost, Cold. 13. Cold, Freezing, and so four or five days after. A^o 1673. Jan. 24. Frosty ad 31. and as many days in February, Frosty. A^o 1669. Febr. 19. 20, 26. A^o 1671. Febr. 6, 7. Frost and Snow. 19, 20, 21. Hail, and very cold, A^o 1669. March 2, 4, 7. Frosty mornings. A^o 1676. March 12, 13, 16, 17, 27, 28. A^o 1672. April 3, 4, Cold. 10, 13, 16, 17, 18. Idem. Several Frosts in the Country. A^o 1674. April 1. Frost. A^o 1652. May 17. Some Frost A^o 1679 May 10, 12, 13. Cold Wind. 14. Frost, Morning.

§ 7. These are the Evidences as thin as they lye, and they lye not so thin neither; On which Observers have found that this Aspect contributes to Frost, every where, where it can shew its self, and its Texture, not en∣gag'd in a Cro•••• of other Configurations: In such case the Weather, the Constitution of the Air, follows the Croud; but withal beareth Witness to all such Meetings of the Planets, who make disorderly cold Weather, though allowed so long a term as the milder Constitution. Darkness in deed challenges half the year, what it loses in Summer, it gains in Winter but in Cold and Heat 'tis better order'd. And let the Reader be assured, that even Cold is distributed and dealt out even in Winter time by sundry D••les, according to the several Offices in the Great Family of Nature.

§ 8. He who denyeth the rest of the Celestial Aspects, because the ☉ is the Fountain of Light and Heat, must deny that we can quench our Thirst at a Fresh Spring or Rivulet, because the Ocean is the Fountain of Moisture. I will not strive to make out the Cold of ♄ and ♀, but by their Distance, and their Disposition; of which later we are assured so far, that they are both rightly termed Cold: as the ☽ is also, in compari∣son of the Sun; and that is enough. If ♀ and the Rest be corniculate as the ☽ is, that also helpeth to a chill Influence. We doubt not of that which every body, almost, in these days Knows: Only we hint, that if Great

Men would give their mind, or do so much Favour to Truth, they might find ways to selve Objections, as well as make them.

§ 9. This I have observed in ♄ and ☉, that Frost and Snow came ordi∣narily at a distance of grad. 5, 6, 7, &c. whereas what cold is observed here, for the most part, in ♄ and ♀, cometh within less Compass and more near the day of the Conjunction. The reason is at Hand. The Sun with ♄, cannot so well contribute to Cold, but by an Oblique gl••••ce, when ♄ may in a Direct incidence upon ♀ irritate the Quality.

§ 10. We have used the Reader to hear the Paradox, that ♂ is many times a Friend to Cold, seeing we are never attaqued there with, but when the H. Bodies keep aloof about 30 degrees more or less, or when they Creep too Close; suppose within 10 degrees, or there abouts. For what doth a 〈◊〉〈◊〉 signifie without the consent of the rest? 'Tis like striking Fire with a Flint, it makes no report. Let your Piece be in good order charg'd, &c. and then one Spark from one Conjunction of the Flint and Steel may do execution.

§ 11. But now as to Rain, or we may call it Moisture, this gentle Aspect produces it, gently at least one of the 3 days, of which the day of the ☌ is the midst. Not but that it finds its excesses some degrees distance Verily if we set this Aspect even at 10 degrees distance, which yet perhaps should not be, it turns to account, & Communibus Ann••••, comes neer to be responsible for the Moye••y of Days, These Papers may be loath to bear the unreason∣able account of, 1500 Days, upon which I bottom my Experience: But so we shall find it.

§ 12. Here, ••s every where else, we are troubled with 〈◊〉〈◊〉 Signs, as if our Aspect were most Foecund, in ♋ ♏ ♓. The Antients meant well, when they would have ••s to understand, there is difference in the Dodeca••••mory or each XII. part of the Zodiaque; but it was 〈◊〉〈◊〉 of Experience meerly, and Trifling Fa••'d Di∣Fancy which excogitated the 〈◊〉〈◊〉 vision into Fiery, Aiery, &c. Not that I deny ♋ ♏ ♓ posses'd by this Aspect will yield Rain. But I must believe my Eyes, and say as I find, that ♐ Aunt, 62, 63, 64. yielded more Rain than the three preceding years of 59, 60, 6••. when the Aspect was conspic••ous in 〈◊〉〈◊〉 I have not Spirit of Contradiction, but if I may have leave to contribute to the Foun∣dation of solid Astrology after Kepler and Eichs••••d: All the Harm is, Art is advanced, Mankind benefited, to say nothing of the Creators Glorys A^o 63. ☌ ♄ ♀ in •• brought moisture 10 times in 18 days. In 64. •••• times in 22 days, when as ♏ brought but 8 times twice together.

§ 13. Nor is it ♐ alone, but ♑ also, and ♒ and ♌, which last though a Fiery Sign brought moisture, A^o 53. 9 times. A^o 83. 15 times. A^o 〈◊〉〈◊〉 17 times. 'Tis the Symmetry and Co-incidence of the rest with this Aspect in such a Sign, Fathers all the Issue and Effect Therefore in •••• for Example's sake it brings but 3 in one year, and 7 in another. In ♉ but •••• in the year, and 14 in another. In ♊ 9 in one year, and but 6. in another Let the Reader be pleased to peruse the subsequent Table, and he may consider, where if perhaps he meets with 29 days of Rain in an Aspect of ♐, He may withall begin to believe that there may be somewhat in Pla∣tique Aspects, as that of A^o 63. not unworthy Notice, though I am willing to agree it, that the Disparity between That Indirect and as it we•••• Casual Aspect from the Direct, and of the more Primary Intention, may arise from a different Pace or Motion found in ♀, at that time of 40 days (For no less it compriseth) more than in the Ordinary Combination 〈◊〉〈◊〉 24. But the Table may be produced.

A Table of the Aspects of ♄ and ☿ in every Sign of the Zodiaque for 30 Years ••ast with the Quota of Moisture appearing at the times assigned.

Let no than object the Number of 26. found in ♋, for That Excess pre∣cedes from a Tropical, not Aquatique Sign.

§ 15. Some Specials may be further marked concerning Irides, Fiery Me∣teors, &c.

As to the First, I find long ago a Note of Rainbow Sept. 21. 1654. more than Semicircular: I•• was some entertainment to us, and could not be omitted. In the year 1678. July 22. I meet with a Note of two Rainbows, Concentrical I presume, seeing Philosophy will not otherwise allow it: ☌ ♄ ♀ was on Foot at both times: if it were but to help to gather the Moi∣sture, as the ☽ helps to the Lunar Halo. But there is somewhat more in it: Our ☌ helps to the Lustre, and the Sign to the enlargement, the South-East, or South-West Angle of the Horizon cannot admit so large a Circumference, because it must needs be depressed according to the Ele∣vation of the Sun, who paints it in his North Declination. But in the midst of the Horizon nearer the Cardinal Points, where the Sun runs in September, there may be ample space for a Glorious Iris to embrace the Spectators, while ♄ ♀ ♂ ☿ ♃, all in ♍, or concerned thereabout, stand and look on: nevertheless we are not over-fond to impute our Concentrick Irides to this Aspect, for ♄, ♂ and ♀ being in ♊, we do not see how they can overcast a Secondary Iris upon the First, form'd by the Sun, the Sun being in grad. 9. ♌; but whether ☿ cannot, being within 14 degrees of the Sun, That I question. Yea, it may be that ♄ ♀ ♂ and the Rest, may qualifie the Vapours (more than draw it up) make it Light and Te∣pid, more apt to take Colour, as I may say. For what is the reason that we have fewer Rainbows in the Winter, than in Summer? is it not because the Winter Moisture is not of so rare and pellucid consistence as the Summer Drop? The Drop is more Clumsie, Dense and Icy, not so apt to imbibe or re∣flect the Light: whence there is no Iris ever observed from a Snowy, yea or a Sleeting Cloud. Thus far therefore all Aspects of Warmth contri∣bute toward the Rainbow.

§ 16. We remember ♄ heretofore help't to send us Hail, the same is He complicated with ♀ Here, and There, in some certain Places; we

hear of it under this Aspect, more especially Mar. 16. 1672. June 1. A^o 1675. May 25. A^o 1677. but May 18. Shattering Windows at Highgate, &c. July 23. At Epsom, such as hath not been within Memory. A^o 1678. and A^o 1682. destroying the Fruits of the Ground, June 24. and Day 29. ter∣rible at Rochester, so August 18. a Ratling Storm.

§ 17. So let us remember ♀, who in certain Signs I find, viz. from ♉ to ♏, kindles Meteors, tayl'd and trayn'd Meteors, but more frequent∣ly breaks out into Lightning and Thunder, as in all those Days where the Hail is mentioned; yea, and many others not unfit to be noted, according to their Signs.

§ 18. First, in the Sign ♉, Thunder. May (1675.) 24, 25, 31. March 1677. 22. much Lightning.

In ♊, May 17. Much Lightning. 18, 25, 26. Rain and Thunder. A^o 1677. July 15, 16, 19, 22. A^o 1678. May 8, 1679.

In ♋, July 3. at Home, and from abroad, News of Harmful Lightning from Basil, &c. so again, day 14. at Leusden.

In ♌, July 25. A^o 1653. Aug. 23. 30. besides Dec. 24. A Globe of Fire 3 hours at Newburgh, and Sept. 6. a Meteor from the North to the South∣wards, seen in our Moorfields, hor. 10. P. M. with a Train of Six Inches Breadth. A^o 1681. A^o 1682. Jan. 24. at Maxfield, 29. at Rochester. A^o 1683. Sep. 5. & 6. So much for ♌.

In ♍. A^o July 16. Showring and Thundring the whole day. 1656. Sept. 8.

In ♎. A^o 1658. August 17.

In ♏, Dec. 16. A^o 1660. much Lightning, so die 18. also. A^o 1661. Oct. 2. Harmful Lightning.

§ 19. These Instances ought not to be dissembled, because few give us any Item of Thunder and Lightning from ♄ and ♀, no, nor from Fiery Signs; whereas in these Signs preceding, ♄ and ♀ can Work at the Forge, or some Hireling for them.

§ 20. Further Disputing about the Signs, let it be referred to its place. In the mean time no body is such a Brute as to deny ♌ to be a Fiery Sign, the Evidence now brought will speak to it. But where is ♈ and ♐? 2ly. What have we to do with Earthly Signs? ♉ surely was never Dry, nor ♍ over Cold. 3ly. What if a Sign be Airy and Watry too? ♉ for one. 'Tis impossible. Lastly, That any one Sign should equally partake of any one Character; when as one and the same Sign; ♈ suppose, by all Men's confession, shall be moist in some parts, rather than others. There∣fore 'tis the Multitude of the Fixed, and the Situation of the Arch of the Zodiack and the various Relation to the VII. Planets. produce Fiery, Watry, Windy Influences.

§ 21. If ♄ ♀ and ☉ be in the same Sign, there may be Thunders; Nay, rather if ♄ and ♀ be at a Sign or Two Distance, before or after, This Table shews a Storm is impending. If ♄ and ♀ be in ♊, when the ☉ is in ♌, as above, A^o 1678. or be in ♌, when the ☉ is almost in ♎, as A^o 1681. 1683. such a Conjunction, like a Knot in a piece of Timber, makes the Piece the Stronger, which hath its due Strength and Weight in the other unknotty parts, precedent or subsequent.

§ 22. If any shall say, that this agrees not with the Premises, where we term'd this Aspect one of the gentlest Configurations, we answer, we speak only comparatively, in relation to those who are more brisk and active, and have reason so to be.

§ 23. But if again it be said, we had no such doings in ☌ ☉ ♄, as if we made this the more Masculine Aspect: we have said what we could to such Objection in the precedent Chapters; so the Table follows.
