Section II – Chapter I
As if it is the significator of the king or chief rulers, it denotes much trouble and
detriment unto their persons, and great fear of the unthroning of them; likewise
if it be significator of the people 1
or if the Lord of the Year be thus afflicted,
say the condition of the people shall be very sad and grievous, and much
trouble and mischief shall be to their cities and towns; and this shall more
assuredly be, if your significator is then in the terms of the infortunes, and the
unfortunate planet afflicted also and indisposed, for then shall the mischief and
trouble be the more grievous and troublesome: So also if your significator is in
the terms of a fortune, if he is ill-aspected, weak and in the houses of the
malevolents; but if he is free , the evil will be the less;
especially if he is in his own house or exaltation, or triplicity, i.e. essentially
well dignified.
[What kings and rulers may expect when their significator or Lord of the tenth
house of heaven in any Revolution is impeded]
Now as touching the significations of the impediment of the Lord of the tenth in
any annual Revolution; and then let us proceed to the rules of the ancients in
judging the true state and condition of the common people in any region, in any
Revolution of the Year, over and above what has been already said, for the
better illustration thereof, that so the student may be the better able to retain and
understand the rules of art, as also to judge these matters the more accurately.
You have heard that the sign of the tenth house in any annual Revolution,
together with the lord of the 10 th , has signification of kings and chief rulers; the
which if it is combust in any of the angles, it signifies destruction to the king or
chief rulers during that Revolutions’ effects.
For example, if in the Ascendant, and the Sun is lord
thereof, 2 you may from hence conclude 3 that the common people or subjects
will rise up against their superiors or governors, and kill him or them or depose
them, or at least grievously molest and afflict them according to the power and
strength of the significators; for if Mars do then afflict him 4
by conjunction or
aspect, and is either lord of the eighth or fifth, or therein located, death is the
more to be feared; but if Saturn is then in aspect or conjunction with the lord of
