卷二·第八十二章　能否得官，能否留任

The tenth House, and those Questions properly belonging unto it.

第十宫，以及本属这一宫的问事。

Of Government, Office, Dignity, Preferment, or any place of Command or Trust, whether attainable or not?

论政府职位、官职、尊位、升迁，或任何有指挥权、受托付的位置，能否得到？

THE first house and his Lord are given to the querent, the tenth house and his Lord shall signifie the Place, Office, Preferment, Command, Honour, &c. enquired after; if the Lord of the ascendant and the ☽ be both joyned to the ☉, or to the Lord of tenth, or either of them, and the Lord of the tenth behold the tenth, or be personally therein, the querent shall then have the thing sought after, but not gratis; nay, he must bestir himselfe, and use all the friends he can about it: if none of the Significators be joyned to the Lord of the tenth, see if the Lord of the first or ☽ be in the tenth, he shall then attain what he desires, if that Planet be not impedited:

第一宫及其主星归问卜者，第十宫及其主星代表所问的职位、官职、升迁、指挥权、荣誉等等；若上升主星与月亮都与太阳相连，或与第十宫主相连，或其中之一如此，而第十宫主又照看第十宫，或本身就在第十宫里，问卜者就会得到所求之物，但不是白得的；不，他必须亲自奔走，动用他所能动用的一切朋友：若没有任何征象星与第十宫主相连，就看第一宫主或月亮是否在第十宫，若在，他就会得到所想要的，只要那颗行星未受阻碍：

The Lord of the tenth in the first, so he be a lighter Planet then the Lord of the first, though no aspect be betwixt them, yet shall he attain the Place or Office desired; but with more ease and lesse labour when the Lord of the tenth is in the ascendant, and is either going to ☌ ⚹ or △ aspect with the Lord of the first.

第十宫主在第一宫，只要他是比第一宫主轻的行星，即使两者之间没有相位，问卜者仍会得到所想要的职位或官职；而若第十宫主在上升，又正要与第一宫主成会合、六分或三分，得来就更容易、更省力。

If the Lord of the tenth be joyned to ♃ or ♀ by any aspect, and the Lord of the tenth be in the ascendant, it argues obtaining of the Office with ease and facility: If the Lord of the tenth be joyned to ♂ or ♄, and they or either of them in the ascendant, in their owne house or exaltation, and themselves Orientall and Direct, and not one opposite to another, this doth argue obtaining the Preferment, though with much importunity.

若第十宫主以任何相位与木星或金星相连，而第十宫主又在上升，表示得官容易顺利：若第十宫主与火星或土星相连，而它们或其中之一在上升，在自己的庙或旺宫，本身又东出、顺行，彼此又不成对冲，这也表示能得升迁，只是要再三恳求。

If the Lord of the tenth receive the Lord of the first or the ☽ by any reception, or in any house, the matter will be effected with much content and profit.

若第十宫主以任何接纳、或在任何宫中接纳第一宫主或月亮，事情会办成，而且称心、得利。

If any Planet transferre the vertue of the Lord of the first to the Lord of the tenth, then the thing will be perfected, or Office obtained by meanes of another that labours in the matter, and not by himselfe: In this case, it's best that he who would acquire the Dignity, observe if he know such a man as the Planet describes, that in probability is active, or of neer acquaintance to the person of whom he would have the Office, and let him imploy such a one in the businesse, for by his means it's very like he may attaine the place desired.

若有某颗行星把第一宫主的德性传给第十宫主，事情就会成全，或者说，官职是经由另一个为此事奔走的人之手得到，而不是靠问卜者自己：在这种情况下，想谋得这一尊位的人最好留意，他是否认识一个像那颗行星所描述的人，此人多半办事积极，或与他想从其手里得到官职的那人相熟，就请这样一个人来办这件事，因为靠他的门路，很可能就会得到想要的位置。

If the Lord of the tenth doe not desire the ☌ of the Lord of the first, but the Lord of the ascendant his, and doth really come to ☌ of the Lord of the tenth, without the abscission of any other Planet before ☌, the Office will be obtained, but the querent must labour hard for it.

若第十宫主并不求与第一宫主会合，而是上升主星去求与他会合，并且真的来到与第十宫主的会合，会合之前没有任何别的行星截断，官职就会得到，但问卜者必须为此辛苦奔劳。

No ☌ being betwixt the Lord of the first and tenth, or either of them joyned to a Fortune, but to a malevolent Planet, and that malignant joyned to another malevolent, and this malevolent joyned to a Fortune, and this Fortune joyned to the Lord of the tenth; if the ☌ of the first Infortune be with the Lord of the first, or the last Planet is joyned to the Lord of the first, or if their first ☌ be with the Lord of the tenth, yet it imports acquisition of the Dignity, but with infinite perplexities, and solicitation of many and severall persons: you may easily distinguish the persons of those to be imployed, by the Planets before mentioned, and the houses they are Lords of; those Planets that are in ⚹ or △ to the Lord of the tenth are great with him: Let application or meanes be made to such, for those men may be great Friends to the Querent.

若第一宫主与第十宫主之间没有会合，两者也都不与吉星相连，而是与一颗凶星相连，那凶星又与另一颗凶星相连，这颗凶星又与一颗吉星相连，这颗吉星再与第十宫主相连；若第一颗凶星的会合是与第一宫主，或最后那颗行星与第一宫主相连，或它们的第一次会合是与第十宫主，这仍表示能得到尊位，但要历经无穷的周折，央求许多不同的人：要托的那些人是什么样子，你可以凭上面所说的行星以及它们所主的宫轻易分辨；与第十宫主成六分或三分的行星，与他交情深厚：应当向这些人申请、走这些人的门路，因为这些人可能成为问卜者的大朋友。

Behold if any of the preceding Planets be in the first, or in the tenth; if he be a Fortune, it notes obtaining the Dignity, whether he be in Reception or not: if the Planet so posited do receive the ☽ or Lord of the first, the matter will be perfected, but without Reception, not.

看上述行星中是否有哪一颗在第一宫或第十宫；若它是吉星，不论在不在接纳之中，都表示能得到尊位：若这样落位的行星接纳月亮或第一宫主，事情会办成，若无接纳，则不成。

If the tenth house be the house or exaltation of that evill Planet, and he placed in that house, he performes the businesse, whether he receive the Lord of the ascendant or the ☽: In every Question you must observe, that what Planet soever is Significator of any thing, if he be in an angle, he hastens to effect the matter; in a succedant, the matter goes on slowly; in a cadent house, the matter goes backward and backward, yet at last is performed.

若第十宫是那颗凶星的庙或旺宫，而他又落在这一宫里，不论他接不接纳上升主星或月亮，他都会把事办成：在每一个问题里你都必须留意，无论哪颗行星作为任何事的征象星，若在角宫，就加快事情的成就；在续宫，事情进展缓慢；在果宫，事情一退再退，但最后仍会办成。

See if an ill Planet behold the Lord of the ascendant or the ☽, with □ or ☍, without Reception, for unlesse he then commit his disposition to another, he hinders and disturbs the querent by meanes of that person who is to solicite the cause or businesse, and it's probable they will fall out about it: if a △ or ⚹ be betwixt them, he will not be angry with him, although he performe not what he expects.

看是否有凶星以四分或对冲照着上升主星或月亮，而无接纳；因为除非他随后把自己的处置交给另一颗星，否则他会借那个为这件事奔走办理的人之手，阻碍、搅扰问卜者，他们很可能为此闹翻：若两者之间是三分或六分，那人虽没办成问卜者所期望的事，也不会对他发怒。

If the Lord of the ascendant and tenth commit their disposition to any Planet by any aspect, with or with no Reception, whether the Receiver be a Fortune or Infortune (so that he be not Retrograde, Combust or Cadent, or goe out of that Signe wherein he is before the ☌ of the Lord of the first and tenth with him) and if the ☽ be joyned to the Lord of the first or tenth, the querent shall atcheive the preferment expected.

若上升主星与第十宫主以任何相位把它们的处置交给某颗行星，不论有无接纳，不论这承受者是吉星还是凶星（只要他不逆行、不焦伤、不落果宫，也不在第一宫主与第十宫主与他会合之前离开所在的星座），而月亮又与第一宫主或第十宫主相连，问卜者就会得到所期待的升迁。

It's generally concluded by all Astrologers, that if the Lord of the ascendant and Lord of the tenth be joyned together, and the ☽ apply to either of them, the matter will be effected, but best of all when ☽ separates from the Lord of the tenth, and applyes to the Lord of the ascendant.

所有星占家一致的结论是：若上升主星与第十宫主彼此相连，月亮又入相其中之一，事情就会成；最好的是月亮离开第十宫主、入相上升主星。

Behold if the Lord of the first be joyned to the Lord of the fourth, or the Lord of the fourth to the Lord of the ascendant, it argues the perfecting of the thing: but if the Lord of the ascendant be joyned to the Lord of the fourth, and the Lord of the fourth be joyned to the Lord of the tenth, the matter shall be effected, but with so much strugling and delayings, that it was absolutely despaired ever to be effected, yet at last it was perfected.

看第一宫主是否与第四宫主相连，或第四宫主与上升主星相连，这表示事情能够成全：但若上升主星与第四宫主相连，而第四宫主又与第十宫主相连，事情会办成，但要经历许多挣扎与拖延，以致人们完全绝望，以为永远办不成了，最后却还是成了。

If one shall continue in the Office or Command he is in.

一个人能否保住现任的官职或指挥之位。

Behold herein the Lord of the first and tenth, and see if they be in any aspect, or neer to a corporall conjunction; and see if the more ponderous Planet of the two, that is, the receiver of the Disposition be in any angle but the fourth; say then, he shall not be removed from his Office untill his appointed time comes out: but if that Receiver of the Disposition be under the earth, or in the descending part of heaven, it imports he shall depart from his Office, or for a time loose it; but shall returne thither againe more confirmed in his Place: and if the receiver of the Disposition be received againe, then he returnes with more honour then before, and also very speedily.

这里要看第一宫主与第十宫主，看它们是否成某种相位，或接近星体会合；再看两者中较重的那颗，即承受处置的那颗，是否在除第四宫以外的任何角宫；若是，就说他的任期届满之前不会被免职：但若那承受处置之星在地平线下，或在天空下降的那一半，表示他会离开职位，或暂时失去它；但会回到那里，在职位上更加稳固：若那承受处置之星又反过来被接纳，他回来时就比从前更有荣耀，而且很快。

You may judge in the same manner, if the Lord of the ascendant be joyned to the Lord of the third or ninth, or to a Planet therein, and after separation from him, be joyned to a Planet in any Angle except the fourth.

若上升主星与第三宫主或第九宫主相连，或与在其中的行星相连，离开它之后又与除第四宫以外任何角宫中的行星相连，你可以照同样的方式判断。

But if they are seperated from each other, then he returnes not againe to his government, but shall depart from it.

但若它们彼此已经分离，他就不会再回到他的治理之位，而要离开它。

If the Lord of the first or tenth, or ☽ commit their disposition to any Planet in an Angle (except he be in the fourth) and that Planet be slow in motion, he shall not be removed from his Office or place of trust, untill that Receiver become Retrograde or approach to Combustion, or goe out of the Signe wherein he is; for much about that time will he be removed.

若第一宫主或第十宫主或月亮把它们的处置交给角宫中的任何行星（除非他在第四宫），而那颗行星行动迟缓，他就不会被免去官职或受托之位，直到那承受者转为逆行、或趋近焦伤、或离开他所在的星座；大约在那时，他就会被免职。

If the Lord of the first be joyned to any Planet who is in a Sign opposite to the exaltation of the Planet who now disposes him, the Officer will then carry himselfe ill in his place, and it may be feared he shall dye for it (but this is to be understood according to the quality of the place he hath.) If the Lord of the opposite house to the exaltation of the Lord of the first be joyned unto him; the men of that Kingdome, or people of that City or Countrey shall report ill of him, shall produce false witnesses against him; the ignorant shall beleeve those false reports, nor will they be easily beaten into any other opinion.

若第一宫主与某颗行星相连，而这颗行星所在的星座，正与现在定位第一宫主的那颗行星的旺宫相对，这位官员在任上就会行为不端，恐怕会因此而死（但这要按他所任职位的性质来理解）。若与第一宫主旺宫相对之宫的主星与第一宫主相连，那王国的人，或那城、那地方的百姓，会说他的坏话，会找假证人来告他；无知的人会相信那些谣言，也不容易被说服改变看法。

But if the Lord of the tenth be joyned to the Lord of the opposite house of his exaltation; the Countrey where he governs or governed, shall suffer great detriment, viz. by the said Governour.

但若第十宫主与他旺宫对面那一宫的主星相连，他所治理或曾治理的地方就会蒙受大损害，就是说，受这位长官之害。

If the ☽ be joyned to the Lord of the tenth, and he in the tenth, the Governour or Officer shall not be put from his Office or Dignity.

若月亮与第十宫主相连，而第十宫主在第十宫，这位长官或官员就不会被免去官职或尊位。

If the Lord of the first or the ☽ be joyned to the Lord of the tenth or either of them, and he more weighty then either of them, and be in a good place of heaven, viz. either in the tenth, eleventh, or fifth free from all manner of impediments, though he behold not the tenth, yet notwithstanding if the querent be then in any Command or Office, he shall be transferred to some other place of trust or Command: But if he behold the tenth house, then he shall continue where he is.

若第一宫主或月亮，或两者之一，与第十宫主相连，而第十宫主比它们都重，又在天上的好位置，即在第十宫、第十一宫或第五宫，没有任何阻碍，那么即使他不照看第十宫，问卜者若当时担任任何指挥之位或官职，也会被调到另一个受托或指挥之位：但若他照看第十宫，问卜者就会留在原位。

If the Lord of the ascendant and ☽ be in Angles, and the Angles moveable Signs and ☽ not joyned to the Lord of the exaltation of that Sign she is then in, it argues he shall goe from this present Command or Government: or if the ☽ be joyned to any Planet who is not in any of his essentiall dignities, though he be received, unlesse it be from a fortune by ⚹ or △, and that fortune in the third or ninth, the querent shall leave his Government or Office.

若上升主星与月亮在角宫，而这些角宫是启动星座，月亮又不与她所在星座的旺宫之主相连，表示他会离开现在的指挥或治理之位：或者，若月亮与某颗不在任何必然尊贵中的行星相连，即使得到接纳也一样，除非这接纳来自一颗以六分或三分相照的吉星，而那吉星在第三宫或第九宫，否则问卜者会离开他的治理之位或官职。

In like manner the same thing will happen unto him, if either the Lord of the fourth or the ☽ be in the fourth, and the Sign of the fourth be ♈ ♋ ♎ ♑, the judgement will hold more certaine if the ☽ be then joyned to the Lord of the fourth, and he Peregrine: and againe, the same will come to passe, if the ☽ be joyned to a Planet, who is in the opposition to the Sign of the exaltation or house of her selfe; or if she be in ♑, or if the ☽ be voyd of course.

同样的事也会发生在他身上，若第四宫主或月亮在第四宫，而第四宫的星座是白羊、巨蟹、天秤、摩羯；若月亮那时又与第四宫主相连，而第四宫主游离，判断就更确定：再者，若月亮与一颗位于她的旺宫或庙所在星座对面的行星相连，或她在摩羯，或月亮空亡，同样的事也会发生。
