卷二·第五十二章　官司谁胜；合伙；邻里之交；迁居去留

Who shall doe best in a suit of Law.

打官司谁占上风。

[This shall be more copiously handled, ere I conclude the judgements of this seventh House.] If the Lord of the Ascendant and seventh be in angles, neither shall overcome: see which is joyned to an evil Planet in a cadent House, that Party shall be over-come: If both be joyned to Infortunes, both Parties will be undone by the Suit, or receive infinite prejudice. If the one be strong and the other weake, and he that is strong be not cadent, nor joyned to an Infortune; and he that is ill dignifyed, or in a weake quarter of Heaven or House, I say, if he be not in his owne House, or Exaltation, or with a good Planet; then the strongest in the Scheame overcomes.

［这一点在我结束第七宫的判断之前，还要讲得更详尽些。］若上升主星与第七宫主星都在角宫，双方谁也胜不了：看哪一方与在果宫的凶星相合，那一方就会被打败：若两者都与凶星相合，双方都会被这场官司毁掉，或受到无穷的损害。若一方强、一方弱，强的那一方不在果宫，也不与凶星相合；而尊贵不佳的那一方，或在天上弱的象限或宫位，我是说，若他不在自己的庙或旺，也不与吉星同在；那么盘中最强的一方胜诉。

He that is but meanly strong in the Figure, seems very fearfull; for sometimes he hopes to win, at othertimes to loose: and observe this in Questions, concerning Warres and Kingdomes, the Fortitude of a Planet is greater in his Exaltation then in his House, in all other Questions quite contrary.

在盘中只是中等强弱的一方，显得十分惶恐；因为他时而希望赢，时而又怕输：在有关战争与王国的问题里还要注意这一点，行星在旺的力量大于在庙，在其他一切问题中则恰恰相反。

Of Partnership, Society or Fellowship betwixt two, if it shall be, or not.

两人之间的合伙、结社或交谊，能否成就。

If good Planets be in the seventh and first, the Society shall be, and good will come of it: the continuance of it, whether for yeers, dayes, or moneths, is knowne by the Lord of the seventh. If you will know when it shall be, see if a good Planet be in the seventh, then the Society or Partnership shall be that yeere. If the Lord of the Ascendant and seventh agree in nature and quality, the Parties will agree; if not, they will disagree, and there will be perpetuall (or at least often) jangling.

若吉星在第七宫与第一宫，合伙就会成，并且会有好结果：它能持续多久，是以年、日还是月计，由第七宫主星得知。若你想知道何时成，看是否有吉星在第七宫，若有，合伙就在那一年成。若上升主星与第七宫主星性质相合，双方就会和睦；若不合，就会不和，会有无休止的（至少是频繁的）争吵。

Of two Partners, which shall gaine or doe best.

两个合伙人，谁得利或做得更好。

The Lord of the ascendant and seventh are to be considered, and in what state they be, and so judge; for if the Significator of the querent be in better dignities then the quesited, the querent prospers; & e contra. If evill shall come on the businesse, then he whose Significator is in a cadent house, that party doth the worst; if any ones Significator be exalted, he gaineth.

要考虑上升主星与第七宫主星，以及它们处在什么状态，据此判断；因为若问卜者的征象星尊贵胜过所问之人的，问卜者就兴旺；反之亦然。若生意上出了岔子，谁的征象星在果宫，那一方吃亏最大；谁的征象星在旺，谁就得利。

See the second and his Lord, and the eight and his lord, and in which of these houses the best Planet, or the lord thereof in the best place, or joyned to the best Planet, he shall gaine most. The second house sheweth the querents substance, the eight the riches of the Companion or Partner; if both be good, both shall gaine. If both ill, both shall lose; if one good and the other ill, he that hath the good Planet shall gaine, the other shall lose.

看第二宫及其主星，第八宫及其主星，这两宫之中哪一宫有更好的行星，或哪一宫的主星位置更好，或与更好的行星相合，那一方就得利最多。第二宫表示问卜者的财物，第八宫表示同伴或合伙人的财富；两者都好，双方都得利。两者都坏，双方都亏；一好一坏，有吉星的一方得利，另一方亏损。

Of familiarity betwixt Neighbour and Neighbour.

邻里之间的交情。

Whether Society or Friendship shall endure, behold if a good Planet be in the seventh, then he pretendeth thee or the querent good fellowship and meanes really, especially if the same Planet or the lord of the seventh behold the ascendant, or the lord thereof, with a △ or ⚹ aspect; also it shall endure so many Months, Dayes or Yeers, as he hath Degrees to goe in the same House, or Signe, fixed, common, or moveable.

交谊或友情能否长久：看是否有吉星在第七宫，若有，他就向你或问卜者表示好的情谊，而且是真心的，尤其那颗行星或第七宫主星以三分或六分照看上升或上升主星时；而且它会持续的月数、日数或年数，等于他在同一宫或同一星座中还要走的度数，依星座是固定、双体还是启动而定。

Of removing from place to place.

从一地迁往另一地。

Behold the fourth and seventh houses, and their lords, and if they be good and strong, and well affected, and good Planets in the said houses, it is very good, & e contra.

看第四宫与第七宫及其主星，若它们好、强、状态良好，又有吉星在这两宫，就很好，反之亦然。

Another.

另一法。

The Lord of the ascendant stronger then the lord of the seventh, abide; if not, remove; if both be evill disposed, goe; both indifferent and better aspected of good then evill, stay; & e contra. ☽ separating from Infortunes, goe; from Fortunes, abide. Note, the ascendant is for the Journier (or the place he goeth from,) the seventh the Place whither he would goe Also if the Lord of the ascendant separate from Infortunes and apply to Fortunes, goe; if from Fortunes, and applieth to Infortunes, stay: and if the Lord of the ascendant and ☽ agree, the judgment is more certain.

上升主星强于第七宫主星，留下；否则，搬走；两者都状态不佳，走；两者平平，而受吉星的相位多于凶星，留；反之亦然。月亮离开凶星，走；离开吉星，留。注意，上升代表出行的人（或他要离开的地方），第七宫代表他想去的地方。另外，若上升主星离开凶星而入相吉星，走；若离开吉星而入相凶星，留：若上升主星与月亮意见一致，判断就更确定。

Of removing from one place to another; or of two Businesses, which is best.

从一地迁往另一地；或两桩事务，哪一桩更好。

Consider the first and second houses, and their lords, and the lords of the places to which thou wouldest goe, and lord of the substance thou thinkest for to attaine there, see the seventh and eight houses and their lords, which of them is best and strongest, thither goe and remove. Or see the lord of the ascendant or ☽, whom if thou findest to be separated from evill Planets, and joyned to Fortunes, it is better to goe then stay, and doe any businesse thou intendest.

考虑第一宫与第二宫及其主星，以及你想去的那个地方的主星，以及你想在那里得到的财物的主星，即看第七宫与第八宫及其主星，哪一边最好、最强，就往那边去、搬到那里。或者看上升主星或月亮，若你发现他离开凶星，与吉星相合，那么去比留好，你想办的任何事也可以去办。

If the Lord of the ascendant be separated from fortunes, and apply to infortunes, neither move or do the businesse thou intendest; see if the planet to whom the ☽ applyes be better then that she separated from, for then thou mayest remove, else not: &c.

若上升主星离开吉星而入相凶星，既不要搬，也不要办你想办的事；看月亮所入相的行星是否比她所离开的更好，若是，你可以搬，否则不要：等等。

If it be best to remove or stay in any place, whether Village, Territory, City or House.

在任何地方，无论村庄、地区、城市还是房子，是搬走好还是留下好。

See the lord of the ascendant fourth and seventh house; if the lord of the fourth be in the seventh, and be a good planet, and if the lord of the first and seventh be good, and with good planets, it is good to abide still; but if the lord of the seventh be with a good planet, and the lord of the fourth with an evill one, it is then not good to stay; for if he doe, he shall receive much dammage by abiding there.

看上升、第四宫与第七宫的主星；若第四宫主星在第七宫，且是吉星，又若第一宫与第七宫主星吉，并与吉星同在，那就宜于留下；但若第七宫主星与吉星同在，而第四宫主星与凶星同在，那就不宜留下；因为他若留下，就会因住在那里受到很大的损失。
