卷三·第一百一十二章　身体的胖瘦

Of the grossenesse or leannesse of Bodies.

论身体的胖瘦。

We call that the grossenesse or leannesse of Bodies, which befalleth by nature to bodies after a full age, or about thirty yeers, or somewhat after.

我们所说身体的胖瘦，是指身体在成年之后，约三十岁或稍后，自然而然出现的那种。

The judgment hereof is assumed from the Signe ascending and his Lord, viz, from that Planet who hath most dignities therein.

这要从上升星座及其主星判断，即从在其中尊贵最多的那颗行星判断。

♈ ♉ ♌, first part declare grossenesse, the latter part leannesse.

白羊、金牛、狮子，前段主胖，后段主瘦。

♊ ♏, the first part of the Signes leannesse, the latter grossenesse.

双子、天蝎，星座的前段主瘦，后段主胖。

♋ ♑, first part mediocrity, rather leane, the latter part tending more to grossenesse.

巨蟹、摩羯，前段适中，偏瘦，后段更趋于胖。

♐, the first part leane, the latter part grossenesse.

射手，前段瘦，后段胖。

♒ ♓ ♎ ♍, shewes a moderate proportion of Bodies; but the latter part of ♒ declines to leannesse.

水瓶、双鱼、天秤、处女，显示身体比例适中；但水瓶的后段趋于瘦。

The Lord of the ascendant is thus considered, if he behold the degree ascending partilly, take your judgment according to the nature of the Signe ascending: if it be not so, then receive judgment according to the quality of the Signe the Lord of the ascendant is in, so that he be in any aspect with a Planet.

上升主星要这样考虑：他若与上升度数成精确相位，就按上升星座的本性判断；若不是这样，就按上升主星所在星座的性质判断，只要他与某颗行星成某种相位。

If the Lord of the ascendant is beheld by no Planet partilly, judge by that mediety of the Signe which the Almuten doth not occupie or possesse.

若上升主星没有任何行星与他成精确相位，就按胜星所不占据或不在的那一半星座来判断。

The Lord of the House or Exaltation of the Horoscope joyned to the ☉ within the moyity of Orbs (♂ being absent) portends a great Body ; if the Signe ascending and Lord thereof do consent herewith.

上升之庙主或旺主，在容许度的一半之内与太阳会合（火星不在场），主身体高大；若上升星座及其主星也与此相合。

If two Planets have equall dominion in the Horoscope, you must take judgment from him that doth most partilly cast his aspect to the Horoscope; but preferre him that hath the house before him that hath Exaltation, &c. For better assisting you in judgment, have reference to the first part of the Introduction, where I treat of the Nature, Shape and Forme of the Planets.

若两颗行星在上升有同等的主管之权，你要按以最精确的相位照看上升的那颗判断；但庙主优先于旺主，等等。为了更好地帮助你判断，请参看入门的第一部分，我在那里论诸行星的本性、形状与外形。

Some have treated of Monsters, but as they are the errours of Nature, and belong not to the naturall course of Heaven, I forbeare to say any thing thereof.

有人论述过畸形，但因为它们是自然的错误，不属天的自然运行，我就不说什么了。
