Book IV – Astrologia Munda<br />

Section IV – Chapter IV<br />

[Of the significations of Mars if he is chief ruler]<br />

If Mars is chief Lord of any eclipse, he generally threatens mischief, etc, and<br />

kinds of men which shall happen through extremity of drought; and particularly<br />

he causes much war, intestine hatreds, feuds, quarrels and discords amongst<br />

men, especially of that kind of life, e.g. soldiers. He excites men also to many<br />

robberies, spoilings, sackings, tyranny and rebellion. He also causes the wrath<br />

of kings and great men; troubles in general, sudden death, sickness and those<br />

chiefly tertian agues or fevers, and those principally or more particularly to<br />

those of younger years or in their strength of youth; much choler and anger<br />

amongst men of small repute; they shall commit unlawful things and violate the<br />

law; many combustions, slaughters, rapines, thefts and robberies.<br />

In the air, he causes extremity of heat and very warm winds, also lightning and<br />

little rain.<br />

In the sea, destruction to ships and submersions suddenly by mixed<br />

winds, lightning and such like.<br />

In rivers a scarcity of water, a drought of fountains and detriment<br />

from drinking waters, which for the most part will be corrupted.<br />

And in things appertaining to the life of man, e.g. beasts and vegetables, he<br />

shall cause a scarcity and destruction of the fruits of the earth by reason they<br />

shall be scorched with extremity of heat or eaten by locusts and caterpillars, or<br />

destroyed by winds, or nipped in the bud.<br />

[Of Venus and her significations general]<br />

But if Venus is chief significatrix, she denotes the same as Jupiter does<br />

generally, but together with it some venereal sports; and particularly to me she<br />

causes honour, fame, joy, fortunate success in every thing; happy marriages,<br />

abundance of children and felicity in all things belonging to matrimony; and an<br />

increase of riches and an unusual familiarity and correspondence between<br />

princes and their subjects and familiars.<br />

In the sea such ships as navigate shall be safe and prosperous.<br />

In rivers, an abundance of waters by reason of many showers.<br />
