32. The Lord of the Horoscope received of Jupi∣ter from Houses, plainly declares a Generous Mind.
33. The Lord of the Second in the Fifth, increa∣seth your Wealth through Rewards bestowed by Great Men.
34. The Lord of the Third in the Eighth, occu∣sioneth Journeys, either on the behalf of some that are Dead, or by reason of the Plague: He often de∣stroys Elder Brothers.
35. The Lord of the 4th. in the 5th. makes you Fortunate in Tillage, or Navigations.
36. The Lord of the 5th. in the 4th. brings Glad∣ness and Delight to you from things that be Immo∣vable, as the Building of goodly Houses, and the Tillage of sweet and pleasant Gardens. And here Venus undoubtedly confirms that Portent, because such things are contained under her Dominion.
37. Mars Lord of the 6th. in the First, excites many hot Infirmities, but this is qualified by the Re∣ception of Jupiter.
38. The Lord of the 7th. in the 4th. presageth strifes about the Father or Wives Inheritance, and this the rather, for that he is most cruelly Afflicted of Mars.
39. The Lord of the 8th. in the 3d. shews that the Native shall survive all his Brothers. He often designeth Death in a Foraign Countrey.
40. The Lord of the 9th. in the 3d. occasions Journeys for the Cause of Dignities.
41. The Lord of the 10th. in the 3d. and there excellently well Placed, makes the Native more Ho∣nourable than the rest of his Brethren.
42. The Lord of the 11th. in the 4th. denotes a second Fortune in Goods that be Immoveable, espe∣cially in Old Age.
43. The Lord of the 12th. in the 4th. Displeasures and Strifes for Possessions, and Church-Goods. These may be sufficient in General Judgments.
Now, if we will Consider the Principal Lines of the Hand, we shall every where find the same things signified, notwithstanding that we have curtailed the Decrees of the Significators. We told you (Expe∣rience her self bearing Witness) that the less Princi∣pal Lines are changed at a certain time, according to the Progressions of the Coelestial Places and Stars, who are Significators: Whereby it comes to pass, that we
may best judge of any thing from them, either when they appear de novo, or begin to wax clearer than they were before.
1. The Vital indeed is continued, but yet Marked with some Incisures, although but slender ones. Whence judge you some Diseases about the 14, 30, 40, &c. Year of your Age.
2. Venus is Fortunate in the Geniture; and there∣fore she hath thus Rased her Region with the accu∣stomed Furrows.
3. The Epatica decently drawn, and without Sections, argues a good Temperance of the Liver, Health of Body, and a Life that is long enough.
4. The Mensa full of Branches, shews an Increase of Riches.
5. The Mensa form'd by a sufficiently decent space, perspicuously bearing the Character of Jupiter under the Region of the Annular (or Ring-finger) is an ex∣cellent Argument of Honours, chiefly Ecclesiastical.
6. The Place of Jupiter beautified with a most clear little Line, the same. So likewise the Tubercu∣lum of the Sun, not undecently Furrowed.
7. The Moons Region presenting a clear Incisure, premonstrates Journeys.
8. The Dominion of Mercury is also most obvious, in that he excellently adorneth his Region, as also the First joynt of the Auricular, or Little-finger.
9. The Cephalica contributes to the Wit, in that it decently composeth the Triangle. Jupiter, Venus, and Mercury, do the like.
10. Saturn also hath some Portents, especially a Disease, in that he bears a Character under his Finger.
11. The Parallel Lines which run through the midst of the Hand, towards the Ferient, confirm the Arguments of Felicity.
12. The Saturnia produced even to the Epatica, declares uprightness of Judgment and Manners. The same Line having a Cross about the Restricta, argues a Peaceable, and most Honoured Old Age.
