In the use of all Purgative Medicines, you must observe the Decurse of the Moone, in Scorpio, Aquarius, and the third Decade of Pisces: although she be not joyned to Iupiter, or Venus. For, the Conjunction of these Planets with the Moone, inhibites the vertue of the Purgative Medicine, in regard they affect the Body, and Incline the Medicine to the nature of Nourishment. In other Actions, [as in Buying of Houses, in Journeys, and the Com∣mencement of Administrations, &c.] Let the Moone be in Aries, Taurus, Cancer, Leo, Li∣bra, or Aquarius, and Aspected by one or both of the Fortunate Planets. And as for the Day, let it be upon a Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday.
