4、Those that have Saturn and Mars in the same part of the Zodiac will be liable, in the course of their lives, to many misfortunes; and if they shall both be in Taurus, and posited in the fourth house; when the Ascendant, by direction, comes to their rays, the Natives will have some severe falls, or be in danger by reason of some ruinous buildings failing on them.
后半句令人费解。论断的前提条件是土火合相发生在金牛座且为4宫,direction在多数资料中指的是主限法,而以上升点、中天之类的宫位起点作推进,就唯有主限法了。comes to their rays我最初考虑为合相,但这会存在问题,由于主限法的基础推进尺度是1度等于1年,而从上升点开始,推进到第4宫的宫头,一般得大约需要70-90 年,折算成人的年龄后已是垂暮之年了,所以comes to their rays在这里应该是形成相位之类的含义,以60和90度为主,当上升点推进到这些位置时对盘主的影响也肯定是残酷的。
6、If the Ascendant be one of those Signs called “Mute”, and Mercury in one that is not humane, with any fixed Star of the nature of Saturn, the Native will never speak well, but bring forth his words with difficulty.
7、He that hath the Moon in Tairus in the second separating from the square or Opposition of Jupiter, and applying to Trine of the Sun shall obtain very considerable riches.
9、When an Infortune is posited on the cusp of the seventh house, the Native will be liable to great calamities, and if an Infortune be in Aspect with the Sun or Moon afflicted in the same place, the Native , though a Prince, shall suffer a world of troubles.
