Gerard Cremonensis On Astronomical Geomancy

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.
