Ther e a r e nine hea venly bodies which throw their light directly on th e

They di er from stars in that they can be t brough nearer our sight by the aid of a telescope , while the stars , even with the aid of the most p owerful telescopes d o not appear any l arger or nearer the Earth than they do to the naked eye . They simply appear as points of l . ight , and are supposed to be Suns and centers of other worlds r e The Sun , being the center of our known universe , has nin e Pl anets hi m volving around . These are known as Mercury , M ars ,
Earth , Venus , Jupiter , S aturn , Uranus and Neptune . th e In a strology the Moon , although being a s atellite of Earth , is called - h a Planet .

ancient times , he was seldom seen before the invention of the telescope .
Our S olar S ystem consists of a central Sun , around which all the other members revolve . Mercury , being the nearest the Sun ( distant 36 million mi . i les ), has a di ameter of three thous and miles It revolves on its axis n t - u - th wenty fo r hours , and around the Sun in eighty eight d ays , traveling at e i i . rate of m les per hour Wh le , however , the climate of Mercury is a n m not y colder in Winter than that of the E arth , yet the Su mers are six ti mes as hot and the Sun six ti mes as bright .

S mi aturn , the cause of all great troubles and ghty evils , is i i n i . e of m les from the Sun In size b ing second largest , m les diam
te . 29 e r It revolves around the Sun in about of our years , traveling i 10 30 e m les per hour . S aturn revolves on its axis in hours minut s , or at th e rate of about miles an hour . It will thus be seen from c omparis on that the nearer the Planets are to i the Sun the faster they revolve around that body , but slower on their ax s ; and the farther from the Sun the faster they revolve on their axis , but slower in their orbit .
- hi i s Saturn has ei ght Sate llite s or Moons and a large Ring , w ch mi les from the surface of the Pl anet and i s composed of innum erable small bodies or S ate llite s revolving around the Planet i n three separate thi ck nesses or layers .

Uranus has a si mi lar m fl u en ce to the S u n in many ways . It has a diam t i th e e er of miles , is of m les from Sun , and takes nearly 84 15 000 years to revolve around that body , traveling at the rate of miles ! er - p hour revolving on its axis in about three and one half hours , traveling
miles per hour . c e Uranus g overns the oc ult or spiritual forc s of life , and causes those h i m e born under to be eccentric , abrupt or violent if disturb d , subject to e t t sudden or unexpect d gifts or benefi s , to be partial to antiqui y and all u ncommon studies and unsettled in married life . 17 g c x Uranus ives a somewhat hairy body , small eyes , dark omple ion ,

It is just as to understand how Sun keeps all the Pl anets in perpetual motion around him as it is to under stand Planetary infl uence .
The specific in fluence of the Sun in a Sign is succes s . If he be in con 1t junctio n with a Planet he destro y s that influence to a certain extent , be
fl . i n 1 g ood or evil , and as sures his in uence instead To insure success l fe , the Sun should be free from all m a l efic aspects . In fact , it is better that he have no aspect whatever The Sun acts in a medium manner between the nature of Jupiter a n d
M ars . It would require full M oons to produce a d ay as bri l li ant as on e ffi t o of cl oudles s sunshi ne . The heat the Earth receives annually is su cient t melt a l ayer of ice 100 feet in thickness , ex ending over the whole Earth , and y et the heat and light of the S un stream off into sp ace i n every direction .

T h e I n f l u en c e of t h e S t a r s . Q T hes e One Hundred Aphorisms were written by Claudius Ptolemy the ! , h i s . greatest Astrologer (Astronomer )and Geographer of times ; A . D 75— 167 .
r b I . Judgment must be egulated y thyself , as well as by the science , for i t is not possible tha t particular forms of events should be declared by any si person , however scientific ; nce the understanding conceives only a certain v general idea of some sensible e ent , and not its particular form . It is ,
therefore , necess ary for him who practices herein to adopt inference . They
only who are inspired by the deity c an predict p articul ars .
II . When an inquirer shall make mature search into an expected event , there will be found no material difference between the event itself and his
idea of it . e III . Whosoever may be adapt d to any particular event or pursuit , a will assuredly have the s t r indicative thereof very potent in his nativity .
IV . A mind apt in knowledge will discover truth more readily than one
practi ced in the hi ghest branches of science . l u 1 s d V . A skil f l person , acquainted with the nature of the sta rs , enable ff e fi to avert many of their e ects , and to prepare himself for those ects before
they arrive .
VI . It is advantageous to make choice of days and hours at a time
well constituted by the nativity . Should the time be adverse , the choice will
in no respect avail , however favorable an issue it may chance to promise . fl s VII . The mingled in uences of the stars c an be under tood by no one who has not previously acquired knowledge of the combinations and vari e
ties existing in nature .
VIII . A s ag acious mind improves the operati on of the heavens , as a
skillful farmer , by cultivation , improves nature . m IX . In their generation and corruption for s are influenced by the i l t celestial forms , of wh ch the framers of ta ismans consequen ly avail them
selves , by observing the ingresses of the stars thereupon . n m a l efics t X . In the electio of days and hours , make use of the , é the s ame moderate extent as the skillful physician would use poisons in order
to perform cures .
XI . A day and hour are not to be elected until the quality of the object
proposed shall be known . an d m XII . Love hatred prohibit the true accomplish ent of judgments ; m o and , inas uch as they lessen the m st important , so likewise they magnify
the most trivial things . 41 t XIII . In every indica ion made by the constitution of the heavens , t r . second ary stars , whe her auxili ary or inju ious thereto , are also to be used
XIV . The astr ologer will be entang led in a labyrinth of error , when the seventh house and its l ord shall be afflicted . an XV . Signs caden’t from the ascend ant of y kingdom are the ascend B u t ants of that kingdom s enemies . the angles and succedent houses are i the ascend ants of its friends . It is the s ame in all doctrines and n sti tu ti dn s .
ben efics XVI . When the may be controlled in the eighth house , they bring mischief by means of g ood men ; if , on the other hand , they be well
ff hi . a ected , they will prevent misc ef u l l fe a XVII . Give no j dgment as to the future of an ged person , until the number of years he may live shall have been reckoned . ben efic XVIII . If , while a may ascend , both the luminaries should be ‘ e in the s ame minute ( of the s ame degree and sign ), the native will be qually and highly prosperous in all thing s which c an befall him . So , likewise , if B u t the luminaries be mutually opposed by the east and west . the contr a ry
ff m a l fi . e ect will be produced , should a e c be on the ascendant ’ f a d XIX . The ef ic cy of purg ation is impe ed by the Mo on s conjunction with Jupiter .
XX . Pierce not with iron that p art of the body which may be g overned by the Sign actually occupied by the Moon .
XXI . When the Moon may be in Scorpio or Pisces , purg ation may be advantageously used , provided the lord of the ascendant be coupled with s ome star posited below the earth . If he be coupled with a star placed above the e a rth , the p otion swallowed will be vomited up .
XXII . Neither put on nor lay aside any g arment for the first time when the Moon may be located in Leo . And it will be still worse to do so , should she be b adly aff ected .
t a h i v XXIII . Aspects between the Moon and s Trs g e the native much f activity ; and , if the stars be in power , they indicate an e ficient , but if weak , an inert , excitati on to action .
XXIV . An eclipse of the luminaries , if in the angles of the nativity , or efl t s of an annual revolution , is noxious ; and the ec take place according to the space between the ascendant and the place of eclipse . And as , in a solar r eclipse , a year is eckoned for an hour , so likewise , in a lunar eclipse , a month is reckoned for an hour . '
- . si n i fi t r i n mi d XXV The progression of a g ca o , posited the heaven , is th to be made by right ascension ; of another posited in the ascendant . by e oblique ascension of the p articul ar latitude .
. l si n i fi XXVI There is obvious concea ment in the case , if the star g S u n r cance of any p articul ar affair be in conjunction with the , either unde t r . the ear h or in a pl ace fo eign to its own nature On the other hand , there is manifestation , should the star be raised to elevati on out of its depression , ‘ and be located in its own place .
XXVI I . Venus gives pleasure to the native in that part of the body which may be ruled by the sig n she occupies . It is th e s ame with other stars .
XXVIII . When the Mo on may not hold a famili arity with two pl anets , as i s desirable , care should be taken to connect her , if possible , with some
fixed star combining their q ualities .
X . n X IX The fixed stars grant extremely good fortune , u connected with c the understanding ; but it is most ommonly marked by calamities , unless the planets also agree in the felicity .
XXX . Observe the creati on of the first king of any dynasty ; for if the ascendan’t at that creation should agree with the ascend ant of the na tivity of
i . the k ng s son , he will succeed his father 42
LI . Make the Sign occupied by the M oon at the time of birth the Sign a scending at the conception ; and consider that in whi ch she may be posited a t th e t th e S n concep i on , or the opposite one , as ig ascending at the birth .
n LII . M e of tall stature have their lords of nativity in elevation and , ' t heir asc endants in the beginning s of Signs ; but the lords of men of short s tature w ill be found in declination : It must also be seen whether the Sig ns
be right or oblique .
. t . t t bu t LIII The lords of n ativi y of sligh or hin men have no latitude , t s hose of tout or fat men have ; and , if the latitude be south , the nati ve will
be active ; if north , inactive . b LIV . In the construction of a uilding , the principal rulers , if coupled w ith a star below the earth will impede the erection . ’ fl LV . M ars evil in uence over ships is diminished if he be neither i n th e - th ese c mid heaven nor in the eleventh house ; but if in either of pla es , he i r enders the sh p liable to be captured by pirates . And if the ascend ant be a fl b W f icted y any fixed star of the nature of M ars , the ship ill be burned .
LV I W hi e. . l the M oon is in her first quarter , withdrawing from her con ' junction with the Sun , the bodily humors exp and until her second quarter
in her other quarters they decrease .
. t ffl LVII If , during a sickness , the seven h house and its lord be a icted ,
c hang e the physician . a an LVIII . Observe the pl ce of aspect , and its distance from the ascend ant of the year ; for the event will happen when the pr otecti o n may
a rrive thither . B LIX . efore pronouncing that an absent person shall die , observe w hether he may n ot become intoxicated ; before decl aring that h e shall r e c ei ve a wound , see whether he may n ot be let blood ; and before s aying that e s e n h shall find trea ure , examine wh ther he may e t receive his own deposit ; l l m f or the fi ures of a these thing s ay be similar . g ’ . th e n d LX In cases of sicknes s, observe critical days , a the Moon s ,
progres s in the angles of a fig ure of sixteen sides . If those angles be well ffl a ffected , it is favorable for the invalid ; if they be a icted , unfavorable . i s i n i fic ati ve o f e f LXI . The Moon s g bodily matters , which , in resp ct O m otion , resemble her .
LXII . B y marking exactly the beginning of a conjunction ( of the Sun
and Mo on ), judgment may be made of the v ariati on of the weather in the f e nsuing month . It will depend upon the lord o the angle of every figure , for he controls the nature of the atmosphere ; as suming also at these times t h e quality of the existing weather .
LXIII . In the conjunction of S aturn and Jupiter , pronounce according w t o the nature of that one which may be higher in elevation . Follo the s ame r ule with other stars . th e W LXIV . After ascertaining the lord of enquiry , see hat power he m a y have in the annual revolution ; or in the ascendant of the new Moon ; and pronounce accordingly . ' ff of LXV . In the least conjunction , the di erence the mean conjunction , !
u n ff . a n d i n the mean conj ction , the di erence of the greatest conjunction n LXVI . Consider no profection by itself alo e , but make reference also t o th e . the qualifications and impediments of , stars

The native s sight will be impaired if the Moon be opposed t a n d i h he Sun , j oined w t nebulous stars ; and if the Moon be in the western a th e m a l efic h S g i n ng le , and both stars in t e eastern angle , the un bein an

Ins anity is produced if the Moon have no connection with M er c — ury and , if neither of them be connected with the ascendant , S aturn being n in occupation of that ang le by ight , but M ars by day , especi ally if in Can d aem n i a fi ti n cer , Virgo , or Pisces , a o c a ec o will be produced .
. m a u l i n e S i n s LXXI If both luminaries may be in sc g , in the nativities n of males , their actio s will be consonant with nature ; but if s o placed in the
nativities of females , they increase their action . And M ars and Venus , if
matutine , incline to the masculine gender ; if vespertine , to the feminine .
LXXII . M atters of education are to be considered by the ascending ; h con di ti o n a r l u m i n lord’s of triplicity matters of life , by the lords of t e y ary s triplicity . ’ . a u ed oc LXXIII If the Sun be found with the Gorg on s head ( O p t M u s ), t ben efic t ben efic r e and no aspected by any' star , and if here be no p sent in th e l r d d i the eighth house , and o of the con ti on a r y luminary be oppo sed to M ars , or in quartile to him , the native will be beheaded . If the luminary culminate , his body will be maimed or mangled ; and if the a spect in quartile
G w . be from emini or Pisces , his hands and feet ill be amputated
. a . LXXIV M ars , if ascending , uniformly gives scar in the face
LXXV . If the Sun be in conjunction with the lord of the ascendant , in Le e e r e r a ti ve , and M ars hav no p og in the ascend ant , and if there be no ben efic in the eighth house , the native will be burned .
- . c on di t o n a r LXXVI If S aturn hold the mid heaven , and the i y luminary be opp osed to him , the native will perish in the ruins of buildings , provided the Sig n on the lower heaven be an earthly Sig n ; if it be a watery Sign , he su fi t d will be dr owned or oca e by water ; if a human Sign , he will be stran gled by men , or will perish by the halter or the scourge . Should there , how ben efic d h e ever , be a in the eighth house , he will not su er death , although
- will be brought near it . ! LXXVII . Profection of the ascendant is to be made for matters affect i n n th e g the b ody ; of the Part of Fortu e , for extrinsic circumstances ; of
Mo on , for the c onnection between the body and the spirit ; and of the mid heaven , for the employment or profession . h a s LXXVIII . A star often dispenses influence in a place in which it no prerog ative thus brin in unexpected advanta e to the native . , g g g
. W th LXXIX hoever has Mars in e eleventh house , does not g overn his master .
. 0 LXXX If Venus be in conjunction with S aturn , and have any lord
i . house in the seventh house , the nat ve will be of s purious origin
. i : LXXXI T mes are reckoned in seven way s , viz by the s pace between two s i g n i fica tor s ; by the space between their mutua l a spects ; by the approach of one to the other ; by the space between either of them and the place appro r i a t e d p to the proposed event ; by the descension of a star , with its addition or dimi n ution ; by the changing of a si gn i fic a tor ; and by the appro ach of a pl anet to its place .
LXXXII . When a figure may be equipoised , observe the horoscope ( or th e figure at new or full moon , and , if that also be equipoised , be not hasty m in g iving judg ent . I ff LXXX II . The time of obtaining a grant indicates the a ection between the applicant and his prince ; but the seat ( or part of heaven indic ati n g th e g rant )sh ows the nature of the office . th LXXXIV . And if M ars be l ord of the ascendant at e time of entering

Judgment is also made by s ome persons a t hi by means of the Sun s progres s ; th is to s ay , by s p artile equ ations to

XCII . S aturn , if oriental , is not so highly noxious to a sick person ;
nor M ars , if occidental .
XCIII . Judgment is not to be drawn from any figure until the n ext con j unction shall have been c onsidered ; for p r inciples are v aried by every co n
junction ; and therefore , ta avoid error , both the l ast and the next should be
