Chapter XXI
Containing the significations of the Moon, when she is Lady of the Year in any of
the twelve signs
All that I have said from the 15 th Chapter of this second Section has been but, in
a manner, merely reiterations, and an enlargement of such rules as were more
briefly delivered before, that the students in this art might be very well versed
in their rules, and perfected in the reasons and grounds thereof.
In remains therefore now we also handle the significations of the Moon in every
one of the twelve celestial signs when she is Lady of the Year; but I must
confess I am almost tired and wearied out with this kind of repetition;
wherefore I shall only in less bounds, 1
deliver unto you the ground of these
rules, and so proceed to the significations of the Dragons Head and Tail.
Know then that the Moon 2
does denote all the good that can possibly be desired
to the commons and people in general when she is Lady of the Year and strong
or well dignified; if she is weak, the contrary according to her debility and
impediment you are to judge.
Well then, when you see in your figure she is strong either essentially or
accidentally, look to the nature of the sign she is in, and artificially commixing
their natures and their strength therein, judge you good to such things and
places as are by her and the sign she is in signified or understood either
naturally or accidentally as they are placed in the heavens, according as you
have heard sufficiently before. If she is weak, judge the contrary after the same
manner.
For you must remember that the Moon in human signs shows her events
whether good or bad on mankind, according to the sex of the sign she is in; if in
airy signs in the air; in watery, in the water; in earthy, in the earth; in bestial in
and upon beasts of the nature and quality of the sign; as if it were Aries, on
sheep; Capricorn, on goats; Taurus, on bulls, cows, oxen and the greater sort of
cattle, and the like.
