Anima Astrologiae or A Guide for
Astrologers by William Lilly 1676
The
8th Consideration is, to mind how many of the aforesaid manners or
points necessary to be used and heeded in giving Judgments thou hast to consider; and they
are Thirty, that is to say,
sixteen impediments of the Moon, ten of the other Planets; as hath been
said, and besides all those the Planets’ several joys, which are four. Of
which the 1st is the House which each Planet does delight in, as Mercury
in the Ascendant, the Moon in the Third, Venus in the fifth, Mars in the
sixth, the Sun in the ninth, Jupiter in the eleventh, Saturn in the
Twelfth. The 2nd is, when a Planet is in a sign he delights in, as Saturn
in Aquarius, Jupiter in Sagittary, Mars in Scorpio, Sol in Leo, Venus in
Taurus, Mercury in Virgo, and the Moon in Cancer. The 3rd is when Diurnal
Planets, as Saturn, Jupiter, So!, and Mercury, are in Diurnal Houses in
the East and Oriental of the Sun near the Horoscope; and the
Nocturnal Planets, as Mars, Venus,
Luna and Mercury, are in Nocturnal Houses in the West
and Occidental of the Sun; especially
near the cusp of the seventh. The fourth is when the
three Superiors, Saturn, Jupiter or Mars, are in Masculine Quarters;
which are counted from the cusp
of the Tenth House to the cusp of the Ascendant, and from the cusp of the
fourth house to the cusp of the seventh house; and when the Feminines,
viz., Venus or the Moon are in
Feminine Quarters, which are from the cusp of the Ascendant to the cusp of
the fourth house and from the cusp of the seventh to the cusp of the
tenth. As for Mercury, he delights
when with Masculine Planets in
Masculine Quarters, but with Feminine Planets in Feminine.
