Questions of the third House
If
that you desire to know, how many brethren a man hath, see the Lord of
the third, and it is to be held, that to so many Planets as he is joyned,
so many brethren the Querent hath; and the Masculine Planets signifie
brethren, and the female Planets sisters; and note, That Saturn
and Mars, the Sun, Jupiter, & the Dragons Head, are
masculine; but the Moon, Venus and the Dragons Tail are
foeminine: but Mercury is promiscuous, sometimes Masculine and
sometimes foeminine; he is Masculine when he is joyned to Masculine
Planets, or when he is in a masculine quarter of the Zodiacke; and he is
foeminine, when he is joyned to foeminine Planets, or when he is in a
foeminine quarter of the Zodiacke.
