卷二·第二十五章　火星入驻四角

XXV. On Mars's Lodging in the Places.

第二十五章　论火星入驻诸位。

[1] If Mars is in the Ascendant in a diurnal nativity, in a masculine sign, it signifies harm and pain from his own people and the diminution of his good, and it brings dangers; he will be of evil character, melancholic, passionate, and merciless, with few children, for Mars kills children and is evil toward them; he is full of violence and loves licentiousness, an adulterer who often courts women and does not take them, and he does this without grace; it signifies the same in the nativities of women.

[1] 若白天出生，火星在上升，又在阳性星座，主此人从自家人那里受害受痛，福分减损，并带来危险；他性情恶劣、忧郁、易怒、无情，子女少，因为火星害死子女、对子女凶；他满是暴戾，好放荡，是通奸者，常向女人求婚而娶不成，做这些事也不体面；在女命里也主同样的事。

It is worst if Saturn regards, and best if Jupiter regards, for Jupiter strengthens him and makes him gentle and welcomed, granting livelihood and work.

若土星照见最凶；若木星照见最好，因为木星使他强健，使他温和、受人欢迎，并给他生计与事业。

[2] But if Mars is in the Ascendant and one luminary is in the Descendant and the other in the IC, or both are setting together, while Jupiter is cadent and turned away, his parents die swiftly by an evil, violent death, and the natives are orphans and injured, with a chronic infirmity, or short-lived; for this configuration is like having no upbringing at all.

[2] 若火星在上升，两光一在下降、一在天底，或两者一同在下降，而木星落在果宫、与它们背离，此人的父母会很快横死，本人成为孤儿、伤残，患慢性病，或者短命；因为这个配置就如同完全得不到养育。

[3] If Mars is in the Ascendant in nocturnal nativities, in a feminine sign, he is gentle, the more so if the sign belongs to his sect and Jupiter regards: it signifies intelligence, ease in his works, courage, and boldness; yet even so he does not escape some hardship, for Mars is dangerous even thus.

[3] 若夜里出生，火星在上升，在阴性星座，他是温和的，若星座属于他的区分、又有木星照见就更如此：主聪明、做事顺手、勇敢、大胆；即便如此，此人也免不了一些艰难，因为火星即使这样也带着危险。

[4] If Mars is in the house of property, the place following the Ascendant, it signifies the ruin of his property unless Jupiter regards; if a benefic regards, he ruins part and part remains.

[4] 若火星在财帛宫，也就是上升的后一宫，除非木星照见，否则主他的财产败坏；若有吉星照见，就败掉一部分、保住一部分。

[5] If Mars is at the Midheaven in diurnal nativities, or in the place following the Midheaven, contrary to his sect, it signifies a fall from position, migrations, and evil flight from his land.

[5] 若白天出生，火星在中天或中天的后一宫，不合他的区分，主此人失位、迁徙，狼狈地逃离故土。

[6] If that sign is tropical or bicorporeal, he returns to his country and to his former fortune, especially if a benefic regards; but he is overthrown again, above all if Jupiter and Venus do not regard; and if a malefic regards, he ruins his father's property, especially if the Sun regards.

[6] 若那个星座是回归星座或双体星座，他会回到故国，恢复先前的运势，尤其有吉星照见时；但他还会再次倾覆，尤其木星、金星都不照见时；若有凶星照见，他会败坏父亲的财产，太阳也照见时更是如此。

[7] The harm is less in nocturnal nativities, especially if Jupiter regards, for Jupiter lessens sloth and evil, increases the good, and makes the intellect sharper.

[7] 夜里出生害处较少，尤其有木星照见时，因为木星减少懒惰与恶，增加好处，使心智更敏锐。

[8] If Mars is with the Moon at the Midheaven or under the earth, he destroys property and goods; but if a benefic, Jupiter or Venus, regards or is with him, the native restores and gathers again what has perished.

[8] 若火星与月亮同在中天或在地下（天底），会毁坏财产与家业；但若有吉星——木星或金星——照见或同在，此人会把失去的东西重新收回、聚集起来。

In general, Mars at the Midheaven or at the IC contrary to his sect destroys possessions.

总的说来，火星不合区分而在中天或天底，会毁坏家产。

[9] If Mars is opposite the Ascendant, it is bad, for he destroys: the native flees from his country or falls into evil, with violent death, a wretched old age, frequent reversals, and plots; it is worst when Mars is in neither his sect nor his place, an alien place, and Jupiter and Venus do not regard, for then hardship comes upon him from evil deeds, with burning by fire or the bites of beasts.

[9] 若火星在上升的对面（下降），是凶的，因为它毁坏：此人逃离故国，或陷于祸患，横死，晚景凄凉，屡遭变故与阴谋；火星既不合区分、也不在自己的位置而在异己之位，木星、金星又都不照见时最凶，那时恶行带来艰难，会遭火烧或野兽咬噬。

[10] Know which of these will happen from the kinds of signs in which Mars is, for the nature of the sign shows the form of the harm.

[10] 要从火星所在星座的类别判断会发生其中哪一种，因为星座的性质显示伤害的形式。

[11] If Jupiter regards, he makes it lighter; and if Mars is in his own signs and testified to by the benefics, he does not bring about what has been said: some come so near affliction that they look upon death and then escape, being rescued on account of Jupiter and Venus, and such men see their enemies punished.

[11] 若木星照见，就会减轻；若火星在自己的星座，又有吉星作证，就不会造成上面所说的事：有人遭难到了眼看要死的地步，然后得以脱身，是因木星与金星而得救；这样的人会看到仇敌受罚。

[12] If Mars is in the Descendant and regards the Sun or the Moon, it sets his parents apart from one another and makes his life uneven in its livelihood.

[12] 若火星在下降，又照见太阳或月亮，会使他的父母彼此分离，使他的生计起伏不定。

[13] If Mars is in the Descendant and the Moon, increasing, regards him, it is evil, for destruction and severe harm may come upon him, captivity and treacherous murder; some meet with this on journeys or the like, and along with that affliction he is seized for bloodshed; this is more so in the daytime.

[13] 若火星在下降，而光增的月亮照见他，是凶的，因为毁灭与重创可能临到他身上，被俘、遭人暗杀；有人在出行之类的事中遇上这些，在这苦难之外还因流血之事被捕；白天出生更是如此。

[14] If Jupiter does not help, not regarding at all, what I have mentioned increases greatly; in nocturnal nativities it is less.

[14] 若木星不相助、全然不照见，我所说的这些会大大加重；夜里出生则较轻。
