If you finde Jupiter, Venus, or Dragons Head in a fruitful signe in the Ascendant or 5th, in their Essential dignities, and free from afflictions, it is very probable the Querent goes with two Children.

If the Ascendant be a fixed or mova∣ble signe, and the 5th House a signe of the same nature, and the Sun and Moon be both in fixed or movable signes, and there be no Planets in the Ascendant nor 5th House, nor in aspect thereunto, the Wo∣man enquiring has conceived but with one Childe.
