Book IV – Astrologia Munda Section III – Chapter VIII value and may be purchased at a small rate. Wherefore it is very necessary you are thoroughly versed in the nature of every planet and sign which you are sufficiently taught in the second book. And this rule without any more words may suffice for sufficient instruction in these matters, yet we may apply it thus: Look if the Lord of your Ascendant is received or disposed of by any planet 1 and the receiving or disposing planet is strong in an angle it signifies that corn and such things as are most necessary for the use of man shall be at a high rate that month; the dispositor of the Lord of the Ascendant in opposition of the luminaries or that of the time promises the same; also if the Lord of the Ascendant is received or disposed of, and he together with the receiving and disposing planet is ascending. 2 But if the Lord of the Ascendant and the planet in an angle apply to any planet cadent, slow in motion, or afflicted, the price shall fall. So likewise, if the Lord of the Ascendant, its receptor or dispositor is cadent, weak and afflicted it signifies the same according to their affliction. If are much weakened and afflicted, they will be very cheap; if a little afflicted their price will fall but not altogether so much etc. And if the Lord of the Ascendant, its dispositor and receptor do then also apply to any planet weak, cadent and afflicted, this will be the more certain. See also what planet you find in the Ascendant, for he shall have signification with the Lord of the Ascendant and shall denote the cheapness or expensiveness of provisions according to his strength or weakness. But if the Lord of the Ascendant is not received by any planet, he shall not have signification with him, but the planet therein placed shall be significator only. If your significator, or Lord of the Ascendant if he participates with him, and the luminaries are in 1 That is to say, if the Lord of the Ascendant applies to a planet (committing its disposition) and that planet receives the Lord of the Ascendant’s disposition (or matters) then it will be the significator of these matters. 2 What Ramesey means by «ascending» is not likely to mean ascending at the horizon of the chart. It probably means ascending in the deferent, or as it was technically called, «ascending in the circle of its auge». The terms «ascending in the circle of its auge» and «descending in the circle of its auge» referred to the movement of the centre of the planet’s epicycle around the deferent. The auge (awj in Arabic) was the highest point on the deferent, i.e. the highest point at the top of the deferent. There were two definitions concerned with these two expressions. One (according to Al Biruni) was when a planet was less than 180º from the auge in a counter clockwise direction, then that planet was «descending in the circle of its auge». If it was more than 180º from its auge, it was called «ascending in the circle of its auge». The other definition, according to Abu Ma’shār was, «One of the conditions of each one of them [the planets] is ascending in the orb of the auge and decreasing in light, size and motion. This is if between it [the planet] and its auge there are less than 90 degrees on the right or left. If it is at ninety of it precisely, it is balanced in light, size, and motion. If it is exceeding this [90º either left or right], it is descending and increasing in all these elements.» 170
Book IV – Astrologia Munda Section III – Chapter VIII the Ascendant or in any other angle at the time of their monthly conjunction, the price of corn and other necessaries for the life of man shall continue and remain as it was in the preceding month; but if your significator and the luminaries are received and strong and are in the eleventh or fifth, the prices shall be raised and that according to their fortitudes; if they are essentially very strong it will be much raised, and so on the contrary. Also, if the planet in the Ascendant applies to the Lord of the Ascendant, the price shall be raised that day you find your significators in partile conjunction or aspect. If the Lord of the Ascendant and the luminaries are weak and afflicted in the third, ninth, twelfth, or eighth houses, it signifies their price shall be abated and fallen. The angles signify the fixation and durability of what is. If any afflicted planet also applies to the Lord of the Ascendant, judge the abatement of the price and that especially if the Lord of the Ascendant applies to any planet weak of afflicted. Moreover, if the Lord of the Ascendant is weak and afflicted, and its dispositor strong, yet shall not he by his strength signify anything; for the Lord of the Ascendant shall still be the significator of the price of things unless he were in a cadent house and some planet 1 is then in an angle for then that planet 2 shall be significator. Lastly, if the Ascendant is any of the houses of the luminaries, have regard unto them, and according to their fortitudes or debilities and places in the figure and configuration with the Ascendant, judge. Some of the ancients have taught that we are to regard the planet in the tenth house if any are there at the time of the Sun’s ingress into Aries, or the planet applying to the Lord of the tenth, and make him significator of the price of things. As if the planet located in the tenth or beholding the lord thereof is strong and direct, such things signified by the sign wherein your significator is shall be expensive and of a high price; but if your significator is weak and retrograde, judge the contrary. Dorotheus with others say to know the price of things, look what planets you find at the Sun’s ingress into Aries oriental and judge such things signified by him and the sign wherein he is, shall be expensive; and that those that are under the signification of those that are occidental and the signs wherein they are, shall be cheap. In like manner, have regard to every planet, and see which of them is strong and free from all impediment and judge such things as are signified by him and the sign wherein he is, shall be expensive; and on the contrary they shall be cheap whose significators are weak, combust, 1 NOTE BY RAMESEY: as has been said. 2 In the angle 171
