卷三·第一百七十七章　商人本命第二宫：财富

Judgments upon the second house.

第二宫的判断。

Of Riches.

论财富。

Significators of Substance.

财产的征象星。

♒ 23. 30. ♃ in the twelft strong.

水瓶二十三度三十分。木星在第十二宫，强。

♄ in ♉. ⊗ in ♍ with ☋.

土星在金牛。福点在处女，与龙尾同在。

☊ in the second. ☿ in ♎ combust.

龙头在第二宫。水星在天秤，焦伤。

♓ intercepted.

双鱼被截。

Forasmuch as the Signe of the second is fixed and irradiated with the ⚹ sinister of ♃, and ♄ Lord of the first and second is in the Signe of the fourth,and fixed ; seeing also ♃ hath dominion of ♓ intercepted in the second, in which Signe and house ☊ is placed ; he, viz. ♃, being naturally a generall Significator of Substance,and Dispositor of ☊.

由于第二宫的星座是固定星座，又受木星左方六分的照射，而第一、第二宫主土星在第四宫的星座里，又是固定星座；又因为木星主管被截在第二宫的双鱼，龙头就落在这个星座、这一宫里；他即木星，天然是财产的一般征象星，又是龙头的定位星。

The ⊗ is in ♍, disposed by ☿, and he combust ; yet is ⊗ aspected by ♄ Lord of the second, with a △ sinister ; and this is good.

福点在处女，由水星定位，而他焦伤；但福点受第二宫主土星左方三分照看；这是好的。

A Fortun and a sufficient Estate in worldly Weath the Native shall enjoy,permanent & fixed, acquired for the most part,if not altogether,by his own proper labor,travel and industry,because ♄ is Lord of the first & second ; the position of ♃ in an Oriental quarter, as also ♀ Almuten of the Figure, and ⊗ and ☿ in an Occidentall quarter, but not much elongated from the midheaven, doe argue in his youth, viz. that before he hath run out halfe the yeers of his life, or middle age or 35. he shall attaine to a plentifull Fortune, the quality of his birth and manner of his life and action considered : from and after that age, if good Directions intervene not, a still and quiet time may be discerned for some yeers ; after which,the position of ♄ and of ☊ in that quarter of Heaven which representeth old age and many yeers, doe assuredly promise a more ample and plentifull Estate both in Goods and Lands, for ♄ properly signifieth Lands, Houses, Tenements, &c. and being in ♉, an earthly Signe, his signification is duplicated, and will evince the Native to accumulate Wealth by Pastorage, Tillage, Mines or Minerals, Sea coales, or other earthly materials fetched out of the depth of the earth : ♃ hath representation of the encrease of Substance, by meanes of Joviall men, by dealing with such men, viz. men of goodly corporature, long visage ; ruddy, dark, sanguine complexions, humane and affable in discourse,&c. see in pag. 61. of our Introduction their quality.

本命者会享有一份财运，世间财富足够，长久而稳固，大部分即使不是全部，都凭他自己的劳动、奔走与勤勉得来，因为土星是第一与第二宫主；木星在东方象限，金星是全盘的胜星，福点与水星在西方象限，但离中天不远，这些论证他在青年时，即在他走完一生年岁的一半、或中年即三十五岁之前，就会得到丰厚的财产——要考虑他的出身品质与生活行事的方式：从那个年纪以后，若没有好的推运介入，可以看出有若干年平静无事；此后，土星与龙头落在代表老年与多年的那个象限，确定地许以在财物与田地上更丰富充裕的产业，因为土星本身就主田地、房屋、租产等等，又在金牛这个土象星座，他的意义加倍，会使本命者凭牧畜、耕种、矿山或矿物、海煤，或其他从地底深处取出的土质材料积聚财富：木星代表凭木星型的人、凭与这类人交往而增加财产，即体格匀称、长脸、面色红润而暗、多血质、言谈和蔼可亲的人，等等，他们的性质见我们《入门》第六十一页。

☊ being partly of the nature of ♃ and ♀, confirmes the judgment precedent, with this further addition, That ♀ being Lady of the fourth and ninth, and essentially the strongest Planet in the Figure ; the Native shall thrive by means of Women or Wives,&c.or by long Journeys,if he deal in such Commodities as ♀ represents,or wth men of her description,or with things or materials belonging to ♀, or Jewels, Linnen, all delightfull things, &c. and being that ♄ and ♀ are in reception, and ♀ hath solely the dominion of the fourth, it shewes the Native's Father will somewhat advance the Estate of this Native ; for the ⊗ is disposed by ☿, and he is Lord of the Father's Substance, viz. of the fift : the proximity of ☋ to the ⊗ and ☽ her □, and combustion of ☿, may denote what the Father will or would leave to the Native,will be hardly come by,or scarce attained by him,but will be diminished by a Sister,because ☽ hath some dominion in the third ; and by some Kinsman,if not a Brother, because ♂ is Lord of Brethren,and ♄ the Natives Lord of Substance, are in platick □ in fixed Signes.

龙头部分具有木星与金星的本性，证实前面的判断，再加一点：金星是第四宫与第九宫的女主星，又是盘中必然尊贵最强的行星；本命者会凭女人或妻子等等兴旺，或凭远行，若他经营金星所代表的货物，或与她所描述的那类人打交道，或经营属于金星的东西或材料，或珠宝、亚麻布、一切令人愉悦之物等等；又因为土星与金星互相接纳，而金星独掌第四宫，这表示本命者的父亲会使本命者的产业有所增进；因为福点由水星定位，而他是父亲财产之宫即第五宫之主：龙尾靠近福点，月亮四分福点，水星又焦伤，可能表示父亲将要或想要留给本命者的东西，他会难以到手，或很难得到，而会被一位姐妹削减，因为月亮在第三宫有一些主管权；也会被某位亲戚，若不是一位兄弟，削减，因为火星是兄弟之主，而他与本命者的财产之主土星在固定星座成宽容的四分。

All things considered, what may issue from Parents or Kinred will be lessened by Kinred, or some forged Writing, Will or Evidence to obstruct the Native, or procure a Lawsuit, for ☽ Lady of the seventh, is in □ to ⊗.

一切考虑下来，可能从父母或亲族那里来的东西，会被亲族削减，或因某份伪造的文书、遗嘱或证据而阻挠本命者，或引起一场官司，因为第七宫的女主星月亮四分福点。

It's not good the Native depend that way, for certainly Lucida Lyræ in the ascendant, ♄ in △ to the ascendant, Lucida Lancis culminating, ♀ and ♃ being both essentially fortified, ☊ in the second, doe unanimously promise a very great Fortune to be acquired by the Native's industry,wherof the Native shall better know how to get and procure it, then to keep it or preserve it ; which the Retrogradation of ♄ and cadency of ♃ doe manifest :

本命者依靠那条路并不好，因为确实，上升里的天琴最亮星、土星三分上升、秤盘最亮星上中天、金星与木星都必然尊贵得力、龙头在第二宫，一致许以本命者凭自己的勤勉获得极大的财富；对此本命者会更懂得怎样去挣、去求，而不太懂得怎样保住、守住；这一点由土星逆行与木星在果宫表明：

Nor is it the least mischance unto the Native,that his ⊗ is with the ☋, an assured testimony of wasting part of his Patrimony in suits concerning Legacies, or the Testaments of the Deceased, and of his being abused and defrauded of what happily might be bequeathed unto him from dying people.

本命者遭到的不幸中，并非最小的一件是：他的福点与龙尾同在，这确切地证明他会在有关遗赠或死者遗嘱的官司中耗掉一部分祖产，也证明他会受人欺骗、诈取那些临终之人或许会遗赠给他的东西。
