Is she a Maid that asks the Question?

In the resolution of this Question, you are to consider, if the Lord of the Ascen∣dant, Venus, or the Moon, be in fixed Signes, no ways afflicted by body or a∣spect of the Infortunes, or infortunated by the presence of Dragons Tail, it is an argument she is a Maid that asks the que∣stion.

If the Significators happen to be in Conjunction or aspect with Saturn or Mars

in their own dignities, or in good aspect to Sol or Jupiter with Reception, or the Moon in good aspect to Jupiter from fix∣ed Signes, it promiseth the same.

If you finde the Lord of the Ascendant, the Moon, or Venus, in double-bodied signes, or the major part of them not dig∣nified in the Terms of Mars, it denotes a married Woman, a corrupt Virgin, or a Widow. If the Significators be in mo∣vable signes, Peregrine in the Terms of Mars, the woman is a Widow, or one that has had Children, or that she is a Me∣ritrix.

If you finde the Significators in aspect of Saturn or Mars, if they be not Lord of the 7th, it is an argument the Querent is not a Maid; also if you finde Scorpio ascending, together with the former testi∣monies, you may judge the same.
