卷二·第二十六章　金星入驻四角

XXVI. On Venus's Lodging in the Places.

第二十六章　论金星入驻诸位。

[1] If Venus is in the Ascendant or in the place following the Ascendant, oriental and rejoicing in her light, the native will be praised and comely, handsome and eloquent, a man of many women, known to kings and to the nobility and known in the cities and the countries; glorious, good, and pious; some of them marry the wives of rich men, yet have no profit from them and no joy in it.

[1] 若金星在上升或上升的后一宫，东出而光芒欢欣，此人受称道，容貌秀美，俊朗而善言，女人多，为君王与贵族所知，在城邑与国中闻名；显赫、良善、虔敬；其中有人娶富人家的女子，却得不到好处，也不得其乐。

Some of them take up the houses of worship in purity, presiding over temples (and we have seen among such men one great man whose praise rose high and whose head was crowned); he will be of good character, musical, a lover of letters and of song, and gentle; and these things are firm especially if the Moon regards Venus.

其中有人以洁净之身投身礼拜之所，主持神庙（我们在这类人中见过一位大人物，声誉高涨，头戴冠冕）；此人品性好，通音乐，爱文辞与歌唱，性情温和；若月亮照见金星，这些就更稳固。

[2] If Mars and Mercury also regard Venus in the Ascendant, he will be a leader in revelry, singing openly in it, and an adulterer.

[2] 若火星与水星也照见在上升的金星，此人会是纵情欢乐的头领，公然歌唱，并且通奸。

[3] If Saturn too regards with this, he lies with a woman of middle age, neither praised nor spoken of for good, or with women of lesser repute, and he is much reproached.

[3] 若土星也同时照见，此人会与一个中年妇人相交，她既不受称道，也没有好名声，或与名声较差的女人相交，因而多受指摘。

[4] Say the like in the nativities of women.

[4] 女命也作类似的论断。

[5] If Venus is in the Ascendant and it is a bicorporeal sign, the native is called after two fathers, or two mothers, or has two names.

[5] 若金星在上升，而上升是双体星座，此人会以两个父亲或两个母亲之名相称，或有两个名字。

[6] If Venus and Mercury are in the Ascendant or at the Midheaven or in the IC, oriental, it signifies nobility, honour, and praise in the assemblies of men, praised by the people for intelligence, and this comes on account of gentleness and learning.

[6] 若金星与水星在上升、中天或天底，又东出，主高贵、尊荣，在人群中受称道，因聪明受民众赞扬，这是由于他温和而有学识。

[7] If the sign is feminine it is better, and if it is tropical it is good.

[7] 若是阴性星座更好，若是回归星座也好。

[8] If Venus is in the Ascendant or at the Midheaven and regards the Moon in any configuration whatever, she signifies his marriage, or union, with one of his relatives.

[8] 若金星在上升或中天，又以任何相位照见月亮，主此人与亲属婚配或相交。

[9] If Venus and Mercury are in the Ascendant and Mars in the Descendant, it signifies the ruin of his father's property; the native gathers his livelihood from friends or superiors, or from learning and understanding and the presidency of a temple, and he spends what he acquires on nobles, on the seeking of knowledge, and on drawing near to the houses of worship, for he seeks praise and elevation.

[9] 若金星与水星在上升、火星在下降，主父亲的财产败坏；此人靠朋友或上位者，或靠学问、见识与主持神庙谋生，并把所得花在贵人身上、花在求学上、花在亲近礼拜之所上，因为他追求称誉与高位。

He falls into a lawsuit over an evil matter, over writings, over something spoken, or on account of a woman, and he is seized over blood or poison, so that fright and fear befall him; but this evil is dissolved by the giving of money and through someone's help — after he has come near to death.

他会因恶事、文书、某句话或某个女人卷入诉讼，又因流血或毒药之事被捕，以致惊恐畏惧；但这祸患会因破财、因有人相助而化解——那是在他濒临死亡之后。

[10] If Jupiter regards, the evil is lessened, for he is rescued on account of Jupiter even if he comes near to death; but if Jupiter does not regard and is turned away, hardship, exile, and flight befall him, and he falls from his property.

[10] 若木星照见，祸患就减轻，即使濒临死亡也会因木星而得救；但若木星不照见、与之背离，他会遭遇艰难、流亡与逃窜，失去家产。

In the nativities of women, she lies with nobles and gains wages and profit from them; such women mingle with great men, bury them and inherit from them, and hire themselves out.

在女命里，她与贵人相交，从他们那里得到酬金与利益；这类女人与大人物相交，埋葬他们并继承其产业，也会出卖自己。

[11] If Venus is in the Ascendant and Saturn in the Descendant, it signifies that his wife will give him poison to drink and that this will be his death; he is buried by a woman who is herself the cause of his ruin.

[11] 若金星在上升、土星在下降，主此人的妻子会给他喝下毒药，他因此而死；埋葬他的女人，正是他毁灭的原因。

[12] If Venus is in the Ascendant and the Moon is under the earth, he will be well thought of and wealthy, lovely, intelligent, and desired by women, believing in God, and more honoured than his fathers; he will travel to many cities and lands and be honoured in his travels, and return to his own country; he enters into engagements on account of women, deceiving women with false promises.

[12] 若金星在上升、月亮在地下（天底），此人受人好评，富足，可爱，聪明，为女人所向往，信奉神明，比父辈更受尊崇；他会到许多城市与地方去，在旅途中受人敬重，最后回到故国；他因女人而订立种种契约，以虚假的许诺哄骗女人。

Children will be born to him if no malefic regards (these children are to be learned from the chapter I mentioned to you); and say the same in the nativities of women.

若没有凶星照见，他会有子女（这些子女的情形要从我告诉过你的那一章来看）；女命也这样说。

[13] If Venus is in the Ascendant in a feminine sign, it signifies that his mother is of better standing than his father, richer, and long-lived.

[13] 若金星在上升，而上升是阴性星座，主此人的母亲比父亲门第高、更富有，并且长寿。

[14] If Venus is at the Midheaven, oriental, or under the earth, or in the sign of fortune, that is, the place following the Midheaven, rejoicing, he will be praised and welcomed, glorious and active; if a malefic, Saturn or Mars, regards her, it lessens her power.

[14] 若金星在中天而东出，或在地下，或在福分之宫——即中天的后一宫——且光芒欢欣，此人受称道、受欢迎，显赫而有作为；若凶星——土星或火星——照见她，就削弱她的力量。

[15] In the nativities of women, if Venus is at the Midheaven in a masculine sign, the woman will be licentious and shared by many, especially if Mars or Mercury regards, for she will be a tribade who does the work of men; and this is most severe if the Moon, herself in a masculine sign, regards Venus.

[15] 在女命里，若金星在中天的阳性星座，这女子会放荡，与多人相好，尤其火星或水星照见时，因为她会是做男人之事的女同性恋者；若月亮本身在阳性星座又照见金星，这情形最重。

[16] In the nativities of men, if Venus is at the Midheaven in a feminine sign, he will be displeasing, with the character of women, and weak; if Saturn regards her and Jupiter does not, Saturn weakens him and makes him sluggish and hindered in the works of Venus.

[16] 在男命里，若金星在中天的阴性星座，此人不讨人喜欢，有女人的性情，柔弱；若土星照见她而木星不照见，土星会使他虚弱，在金星之事上迟钝而受阻。

[17] If Venus is in the Descendant, it signifies that he will have a good end, a good old age for his mother, and for himself a good death and renown; but there is no good for him in marriage, for he is hard to please, especially if Jupiter does not regard or Venus is in an alien house.

[17] 若金星在下降，主此人结局好，母亲晚年安好，他自己善终而有名；但他的婚姻没有好处，因为他难以满足，尤其木星不照见、或金星在异己的庙时。

[18] But if Venus is in this place in the nativities of women, how good that is, especially if she regards Jupiter, for she will be one who does not do the work of Venus in an unseemly way.

[18] 但若在女命里金星在这个位置，那是很好的，尤其她照见木星时，因为这女子不会以不正当的方式行金星之事。

[19] But if the Moon is with her in the Descendant in the nativities of men, and Jupiter does not regard, he will be effeminate and lewd and will marry a harlot with whom many men have lain; and women with this become harlots.

[19] 但若在男命里月亮与她同在下降，而木星不照见，此人会女气、好色，会娶一个与许多男人睡过的娼妇；女命如此则会为娼。

[20] Venus under the earth brings grief in marriage; and if she is under the earth in a masculine sign and the nativity is diurnal, it is worse still, signifying disgrace on account of women; if Saturn or Mars regards her from the Midheaven, he sees the death of his wives, and if the sign is tropical, not once but many times.

[20] 金星在地下（天底），会给婚姻带来忧伤；若她在地下的阳性星座，又是白天出生，就更凶，主因女人而受辱；若土星或火星从中天照见她，此人会见到妻子死去，若是回归星座，就不止一次，而是多次。
