卷一·第十三章 父点

父亲除了看太阳及其三分主,还要看父点:昼从太阳量到土星,夜反之,自上升起量出;点主好坏定父亲贵贱,也断是否过继。

XIII. On Knowing the Lot of the Father.

[1] Do not neglect, likewise, to look at the Lot of the Father.

[2] Reckon it by day from the degree of the Sun to the degree in which Saturn is, and by night from Saturn to the Sun; add to this the degrees of the Ascendant, cast it out from the Ascendant thirty by thirty, and see where it falls and which planet is its lord.

[3] If you find its lord in a good place, it signifies good for his father; look at the place and phase in which its lord is and by which planets it is regarded, for by the measure of its position the condition and livelihood of his father are known.

[4] Beware lest it be in the sixth, the eighth, the third, or the twelfth, for these four places are bad, and they make the father mean.

[5] From it the father's character is also known.

[6] If you find Saturn under the beams of the Sun, reckon the Lot of the Father from Mars to Jupiter, add to it the degrees of the Ascendant, and cast it out as you cast out the first; there is the Lot of the Father.

[7] Look at the lord of the sign in which the Lot of the Father is: if you find it regarding the lot, or you find the lord of the lot in the place following its own house, or the lord of the sign opposite the sign of the lot regards the lot or is in the lot or with its lord, the native is called the son of someone other than his father, that is, he is adopted.

XIII. On Knowing the Lot of the Father.

第十三章 论父点。

[1] Do not neglect, likewise, to look at the Lot of the Father.

[1] 同样,不要忘了看父点。

[2] Reckon it by day from the degree of the Sun to the degree in which Saturn is, and by night from Saturn to the Sun; add to this the degrees of the Ascendant, cast it out from the Ascendant thirty by thirty, and see where it falls and which planet is its lord.

[2] 白天从太阳的度数算到土星所在的度数,夜里从土星算到太阳,加上上升的度数,从上升起每三十度抛去,看它落在哪里、谁是它的主。

[3] If you find its lord in a good place, it signifies good for his father; look at the place and phase in which its lord is and by which planets it is regarded, for by the measure of its position the condition and livelihood of his father are known.

[3] 若见它的主在好的位置,主父亲有福;要看它的主在什么位置、什么相态、被哪些行星照见,因为照它所处的情形,就能知道父亲的境况与生计。

[4] Beware lest it be in the sixth, the eighth, the third, or the twelfth, for these four places are bad, and they make the father mean.

[4] 要提防它落在第六、第八、第三或第十二,因为这四个位置是坏的,主父亲卑微。

[5] From it the father's character is also known.

[5] 从它也能知道父亲的性情。

[6] If you find Saturn under the beams of the Sun, reckon the Lot of the Father from Mars to Jupiter, add to it the degrees of the Ascendant, and cast it out as you cast out the first; there is the Lot of the Father.

[6] 若见土星在太阳光束下,就从火星算到木星,加上上升的度数,照前面的办法抛去,那里就是父点。

[7] Look at the lord of the sign in which the Lot of the Father is: if you find it regarding the lot, or you find the lord of the lot in the place following its own house, or the lord of the sign opposite the sign of the lot regards the lot or is in the lot or with its lord, the native is called the son of someone other than his father, that is, he is adopted.

[7] 看父点所在星座之主:若见它照见父点,或见点主在它自己的庙的下一宫,或父点对宫之主照见父点、在父点上或与点主同在,此人被归于别人名下,也就是被人收养。

大意与图解点开

🔎 大意:父点昼从太阳量到土星、夜反之,自上升起量出;点主好则父亲有福,落第三、六、八、十二则卑微;另有过继之兆。

🧭 图解与讲解

上一章看父亲用的是太阳及其三分主,本章换一个工具:父点(Lot of the Father)。第三行的算法是「点」的通法:白天从太阳的度数量到土星的度数,夜里反过来;把这段距离加到上升的度数上,再从上升起每三十度一个星座数出去,数到哪一度,那里就是父点(表二)。说得简单些,就是把太阳与土星之间的距离,从上升照量一遍。太阳与土星都是父亲的象征,《占星四书》卷三第四章托勒密论父亲,也正是看太阳与土星。

版本对勘:父点(第一至七节)
句依据主要异文裁定
§3阿拉伯文 + 'Rhet.' 97, 18 + 拉丁希腊、拉丁多「相」「被谁照见」「父亲的生计」并入
§4阿拉伯文 + 'Rhet.' 97, 19 + 拉丁四凶位:阿拉伯文第六、八、三、十二;希腊、拉丁第二、六、八、十二依阿拉伯文(与本书 I 10, 28 同),希腊读法入讲解;结论并入「卑微」
§6阿拉伯文土星伏时改用火星到木星照译,残篇无
§7阿拉伯文 + 拉丁 XIX, 24 + 'Rhet.' 97, 20希腊「父点之主在点上」文意不连,拉丁作「对宫之主」条件依阿拉伯文并收拉丁;结论取「被收养」
父点的三种算法:量出两星的距离,再从上升起照量一遍,落到的度数就是父点
情形起点终点再做什么
白天出生太阳的度数土星的度数把这段距离从上升起量出
夜里出生土星的度数太阳的度数同上
土星在太阳光束之下火星的度数木星的度数同上(第七行)

〔图〕阿拉伯文的四个坏位:第三、六、八、十二宫

找到父点之后,看它的主星:在好的位置,主父亲有福;还要看点主在什么位置、什么「相态」(phase,即它对太阳是东出还是西入、是否在光束之下)、被哪些行星照见,由此知道父亲的境况与生计。第四节说要提防父点落在第六、第八、第三或第十二,这四处主父亲卑微。希腊 Rhetorius 摘录与拉丁《赫密斯之书》列的却是第二、六、八、十二;融合本依阿拉伯文,因为本书卷一第十章第二十八节列的坏位与此相同,前后一致;希腊读法记在这里备考(表一、图三)。

第七行是一条变通:土星若在太阳光束之下,就被太阳掩没,不足以代表父亲,这时改从火星量到木星,照前法从上升量出。这一条只见于阿拉伯文,残篇没有对应。本站《选集》卷二第三十至三十二章(瓦伦斯论父母先亡)也讲父点,白天同样从太阳量到土星,又说另有人从太阳量到木星,可见古人对父点的取法本来就不止一种。

第八行讲过继。看父点所在星座之主:它照见父点;或点主落在它自己那一宫的下一宫;或父点对宫之主照见父点、在父点上、与点主同在,这几种情形都主此人「被归于别人名下」,也就是被人收养。这一句三本都有,但希腊本「父点之主在点上」文意接不上,拉丁本作「对宫之主」,于是条件依阿拉伯文,再并收拉丁的说法,结论取「被收养」(表一)。

本章很短,却是后面几章的基础:第十四章母点照此对称地算,第十五章断父母谁先亡,也要比较父点、母点哪一个受克更重。本站《数学》卷六第三十二章(一)费尔米库斯论「父亲之宫的精确求法」,可以与本章对看。
