The Moon from Mercury to Saturn.

月亮从水星到土星

[1] If the Moon, flowing away from Mercury, full of light, is moving toward Saturn, and the nativity is by day, it always makes men either stammerers or deaf, or their words will be impeded by a slow sound of the voice. They will have activities either in accounts, or in teaching, or in trade, or in journeys abroad, or in the interpretation of words, and they always penetrate heavenly secrets; others undertake the care and guardianship of waters or of the prison guards, so that from these activities the supports of life are sought for them.

〔一〕倘若月亮从水星流离，光满而行向土星，本命盘又是白天的，就总使人或口吃、或耳聋，或他们的话语被迟缓的声音阻碍。他们的作为会在账目、或教学、或贸易、或旅居异乡、或词语的解释上，并且总能参透天上的奥秘；另一些人承担水务或狱中看守的照管与保护，以致从这些作为中为他们谋得生计的依靠。

[2] But if by night the Moon, flowing away from Mercury, full of light, is moving toward Saturn, it will make them always worn down by continual labors connected with water, workmen given over to everlasting labors, men accustomed to hire out their bodies for some work, porters seeking their support with their shoulders and backs. Some it places in custody, others it thrusts into prison, others it sets before public courts; others it will cause to be condemned, others, oppressed by the squalor of prison and of public custody, long-haired and disfigured with filth, to perish, especially if this conjunction takes place in the signs of the malefic stars.

〔二〕但倘若在夜间，月亮从水星流离，光满而行向土星，就会使人总被与水有关的不断劳作消磨，做献身于永不停歇之劳作的工人，惯于为某种活计出租自己身体的人，用肩膀和脊背谋生的脚夫。有些人它使之被羁押，另一些人被推进监狱，还有一些人被押到公开的审判之前；另一些人它会使之被判罪，还有一些人被监狱与公共羁押的污秽压倒，头发蓬乱、满身污垢而形容丑陋地死去，尤其是倘若这次会合发生在凶星的星座里。

[3] But if the Moon, flowing away from Mercury, diminished in light, is moving toward Saturn, it will make beggars, poor men, covered with rags and sunk in the calamity of wretched want; some it causes to serve in temples, others it compels to prophesy. Very often it makes them lunatic or decrees the defects of the sacred disease; it makes them epileptic and demented by wretched agitation.

〔三〕但倘若月亮从水星流离，光减而行向土星，就会造就乞丐、穷人，身披破布，沉陷在可悲匮乏的灾祸里；有些人它使之在神庙里服役，另一些人迫使之预言。它常使人患月狂病，或判定神圣之病的缺损；它使人患癫痫，因可悲的躁动而神志失常。

[4] But if by night the Moon, flowing away from Mercury, diminished in light, is moving toward Saturn, it either causes them to be exposed, or imposes the squalor of wretched slavery, or decrees the burden of bitter captivity; it also decrees the greatest illnesses or defects, or destroys them in the first period of life, or causes them to be condemned on some account; and if none of these things happens, it makes them die a violent death.

〔四〕但倘若在夜间，月亮从水星流离，光减而行向土星，它就或使人被遗弃，或加上可悲奴役的污秽，或判定剧苦被俘的重担；它还判定极大的疾病或缺损，或在人生的最初阶段毁掉他们，或使他们因某种缘故被判罪；而倘若这些都没有发生，就使他们横死。

The Moon from Mercury to Jupiter.

月亮从水星到木星

[5] If the Moon, flowing away from Mercury, is moving toward Jupiter, it will make great and powerful men, to whom the letters and secrets of emperors are entrusted, or who guard royal wealth and royal treasures with faithful protection, and who have the power of commanding or arranging in the royal household; very often it makes masters of offices and messengers of kings, and it also makes temple-wardens or prophets or chief priests, so that from these honors or on these occasions the greatest insignia of good fortune are conferred on them, and from these activities they acquire increases of powerful riches.

〔五〕倘若月亮从水星流离而行向木星，就会造就伟大而有权势的人，皇帝的书信与机密托付给他们，或者他们以忠实的保护看守王室的财富与王室的宝库，在王宫里有发号施令或安排布置之权；它常造就典礼官与君王的信使，也造就神庙守护人、或先知、或祭司长，以致从这些荣誉或这些机缘中，好运的极大徽章授予他们，并从这些作为中获得有权势之财富的增长。

[6] But if the Moon, flowing away from Mercury, diminished in light, is moving toward Jupiter, it either sets them over accounts, or makes them overseers of money-lending businesses, or makes agents and men to whom public or fiscal documents are entrusted, or causes them to be set over the public or fiscal weights, or makes judges of private lawsuits, and from these activities it decrees the greatest increases of means, and also grants the insignia of good fortune; to some it decrees inheritances, others it compels to find deposited and hidden things, and with others things entrusted remain and continue with them without the vice of fraud, so that from these things glory and substance and great good fortune are procured for them.

〔六〕但倘若月亮从水星流离，光减而行向木星，就或使人主管账目，或使人主持放贷的生意，或造就代理人以及受托公共或国库文书的人，或使人主管公共或国库的衡器，或造就私人讼案的审判官，并从这些作为中判定资财极大的增长，还赐予好运的徽章；对有些人它判定遗产，另一些人它迫使去找到寄存而隐藏之物，还有一些人，托付之物留在他们手中，毫无欺诈之恶地保存下去，以致从这些事中为他们谋得荣耀、资财与大好运。

The Moon from Mercury to Mars.

月亮从水星到火星

[7] If the Moon, flowing away from Mercury, is moving toward Mars in a day nativity, and the Moon is waxing or full of light, it will make men irreligious, perjured, deceitful, whose malice for every crime grows day by day. They will be housebreakers, thieves, men who always plunder temples with sacrilegious fury; they will be brigands, murderers, always armed for the slaughter of men; but caught in these crimes they are handed over to the chains of custody and to prison and are punished with the sword by the severe chastisement of the judge, or for these crimes they perish by a violent death of some kind.

〔七〕倘若在白天的本命盘里，月亮从水星流离而行向火星，而月亮盈长或光满，就会使人不敬神、发伪誓、欺诈，他们对一切罪行的恶意一天天增长。他们会做破门盗贼、窃贼，总以亵渎神明的狂暴劫掠神庙；他们会做盗匪、杀人者，总为杀人而武装着；但在这些罪行中被捉，就被交付羁押的锁链与监狱，以法官严厉的惩处被处以剑刑，或因这些罪行以某种方式横死。

[8] But if the nativity is by night, and the Moon, flowing away from Mercury, full or waxing, is moving toward Mars, it makes generals and military tribunes, but terrible ones, raised up with tyrannical powers, or defenders or governors of cities, but such as never continue in the licence of these powers and who always give offence in various ways; of these some are put to flight, others are sent into exile, others die a violent death, especially if Mars and the Moon are found in the principal places of the nativity.

〔八〕但倘若本命盘是夜间的，月亮从水星流离，光满或盈长而行向火星，就会造就将领与军团长，却是可怕的，凭僭主般的权力得到擢升；或造就城市的保护人或总督，却永远不能在这些权力的放纵中持续下去，总以种种方式触犯众人；他们之中有些人被迫逃亡，另一些人被放逐，还有一些人横死，尤其是倘若火星与月亮被发现在本命的主要宫位。

[9] But if in the cast-down places of the nativity the Moon, flowing away from Mercury in night nativities, full of light, is moving toward Mars, it decrees the deeds of parricidal crimes. For either they destroy their own sons with the frenzy of parricidal fury, or the fury of a perverse desire drives them to the murder of their brothers, or parricidal destruction is brought upon their parents through them, or they cut the throats of their kinsmen by marriage, or, their conjugal affection turned away, they pollute the marriage bed with the blood of a butchered wife, so that in every way, by various promptings of fury, they rage with parricidal madness; but these things are decreed according to the variety of places and signs. Their death will always be violent or public; for on account of slaves, or on account of persons put into custody, or on account of condemned men, a grave peril of dangers is brought upon them, and on this account, condemned, they perish by a public death.

〔九〕但倘若在本命的低陷宫位，在夜间的本命盘里，月亮从水星流离，光满而行向火星，就判定弑亲的罪行。因为他们或以弑亲的疯狂毁掉自己的儿子，或被反常欲望的狂怒驱使去杀害兄弟，或经由他们给父母带来弑亲的毁灭，或割断姻亲的喉咙，或背弃夫妻之情，以被杀之妻的血玷污婚床，以致他们在每一方面都被种种狂怒的驱使推动，以弑亲的疯狂肆虐；但这些依宫位与星座的不同而判定。他们的死总是横死或公开处决的；因为或因奴隶，或因被羁押的人，或因被判罪的人，严重的危险落到他们身上，并因此被判罪，受公开处决而死。

[10] But if, diminished in light, in a day nativity, flowing away from Mercury, it is moving toward Mars, it will make forgers, evildoers, and housebreakers, thieves or accomplices and harborers of brigands; for these crimes they are either placed in custody or condemned by severe chastisement. Others become public executioners, to whom the duties of public punishments are entrusted, or they become clerks of personal suits, or men who carry out the duties of [lacuna], or they become assistants of men of this kind, and from this conjunction they become guards of the condemned or of the public prison.

〔十〕但倘若光减，在白天的本命盘里，它从水星流离而行向火星，就会造就伪造者、作恶者与破门盗贼、窃贼，或盗匪的同谋与窝藏者；为这些罪行，他们或被羁押，或以严厉的惩处被判罪。另一些人成为公共的刽子手，公共刑罚的职务托付给他们，或成为私人讼案的书记员，或执行〔此处原文有缺〕之职务的人，或成为这类人的助手，并因这次会合成为被判罪者或公共监狱的看守。

[11] But if the Moon, flowing away from Mercury, diminished in light, is moving toward Mars in a night nativity, it makes soldiers or keepers of arms or athletes, or will destine them for certain contests, effective, terrible, famous men, whose service comes to the notice of all [text uncertain].

〔十一〕但倘若月亮从水星流离，光减而在夜间的本命盘里行向火星，就会造就军人、或兵器看管人、或竞技者，或使人注定参加某些竞赛，能干、可怕、出名，他们的职务为众人所知〔原文疑有讹误〕。

[12] But if this conjunction takes place with Mars or the Moon placed in the Ascendant or in the fifth place from the Ascendant, it causes them to be extinguished by some violent kind of death. For in the other places of the nativity it decrees defects, illnesses, dangers, toilsome activities, continual watches, or certain violent businesses. But all these things, as we have frequently said, vary according to the diversity of the signs.

〔十二〕但倘若这次会合发生时，火星或月亮落在上升点，或落在从上升点起的第五宫，就使他们以某种横死的方式丧命。因为在本命的其余宫位，它判定缺损、疾病、危险、劳苦的作为、不断的守夜，或某些凶暴的营生。但所有这些，正如我们常说的，依星座的不同而变化。

[13] For if, with Mars placed in wandering or in tropical signs, the Moon, flowing away from the Sun or from Mercury and placed in the signs of the malefic stars, is moving toward Mars by opposition or square, or if it has joined itself to it in a nearby or partile association, it will make furriers, tanners, bootmakers, cooks, coppersmiths, men who carry out their arts and occupations with fire or with iron. But if this conjunction is in the signs of Venus, it will make linen-weavers, dyers, modellers, or shopkeepers. But if this conjunction is in a house of Mercury or of Mars, it makes lovers of arms or of the wrestling-ground, and men who handle the duties of public business. But if this conjunction is in a house of Jupiter, it makes tribunes, generals, and commanders of great legions, or governors of cities or provinces.

〔十三〕因为倘若火星落在游移或回归的星座，而月亮从太阳或从水星流离，落在凶星的星座里，以对冲或四分行向火星，或者以邻近或精确到度的结伴与它相结，就会造就毛皮匠、制革匠、制靴匠、厨子、铜匠，用火或用铁完成自己的技艺与职务的人。但倘若这次会合在金星的星座里，就会造就织麻布的人、染工、塑像匠或店主。但倘若这次会合在水星或火星的庙里，就造就喜爱兵器或角力场的人，以及处理公共事务之职的人。但倘若这次会合在木星的庙里，就造就军团长、将领、大军团的统帅，或城市或行省的总督。

[14] But if this conjunction is in a house of Saturn, it decrees grievous, wretched, and wicked occupations; for it will make torturers or executioners or informers or hunters of wild beasts, and Marsians, the kind who are accustomed to hunt asps; it will make masters of wild herds or beasts, some fishermen, others fowlers; others it compels to draw water from the deepest wells with continual toil, others it will make laborers on country estates or in gardens, others shipmasters, sailors, or pilots, others builders, others stonecutters, others it makes preparers of corpses or men who always handle the duties of burial through their own hands. For in conjunction with Mars the decrees vary in manifold ways [text uncertain].

〔十四〕但倘若这次会合在土星的庙里，就判定沉重、可悲而邪恶的职务；因为它会造就施刑者、或刽子手、或告发者、或猎捕野兽的人，以及马尔西人，即惯于捕捉角蝰的那种人；它会造就野生牲畜或野兽的主人，有些做渔夫，另一些做捕鸟人；另一些它迫使以不断的劳苦从最深的井里打水，另一些它会造就乡间田产或园圃的劳工，另一些做船主、水手或领航员，另一些做营造者，另一些做石匠，另一些它造就整理遗体的人，或总亲手操办埋葬之职的人。因为在与火星的会合中，判定以多种多样的方式变化〔原文疑有讹误〕。

The Moon from Mercury to the Sun.

月亮从水星到太阳

[15] If the Moon, flowing away from Mercury, is moving toward the Sun, it makes men either deranged in mind, or impeded in speech, or deaf, or poor and weighed down by the wretched squalor of want, wandering and always abroad, men who nowhere establish a seat or a dwelling; but these misfortunes are tempered with the passing of time, and when the time of youth is over, small supports of life are sought for them from various activities.

〔十五〕倘若月亮从水星流离而行向太阳，就使人或神志失常、或言语受阻、或耳聋，或贫穷而被可悲匮乏的污秽压下，漂泊而总在异乡，无处安身立家；但这些不幸随着时间的推移得到缓和，少年时期过后，从种种作为中为他们谋得微薄的生计依靠。

The Moon from Mercury to Venus.

月亮从水星到金星

[16] If the Moon, flowing away from Mercury, in a night nativity, full of light, is moving toward Venus, it will cause them to be protected by public funds [text uncertain]; they find preeminence in all activities; it also decrees increases of glory and of great good fortune. Some it makes orators, but with an abundance of speech [lacuna]; others it makes poets and ennobles them by the authority of divine songs, or places them in the service of the gods or in the service of the emperors with a continual succession of honors, or, through the persons and recommendations of women or through certain womanly activities, leads them to good fortune and power with the grace of charm.

〔十六〕倘若在夜间的本命盘里，月亮从水星流离，光满而行向金星，就会使他们受公帑的保护〔原文疑有讹误〕；他们在一切作为中都能居于首位；它还判定荣耀与大好运的增长。有些人它造就为演说家，言辞丰沛〔此处原文有缺〕；另一些人它造就为诗人，以神圣诗歌的权威使之高贵，或以接连不断的荣誉把他们安置在侍奉神祇或侍奉皇帝的职务中，或者通过妇女的身份与推荐，或通过某些属于妇女的作为，凭魅力的恩宠引他们走向好运与权力。

[17] But if the Moon, flowing away from Mercury, full of light, is moving toward Venus, it will make discoverers of spices or pigments or colors or drugs or precious stones, or men who make precious tunics by their art, or organ-players, or pantomimes, or men who aspire to every kind of dance, or who delight others with a sweet voice, but moderate in life, neither abounding in means nor weighed down by want of necessities; yet to these very men increases of means are conferred with the passing of time; in venereal intercourse it makes them lustful and always entangled in certain vices, and on this account assailed by continual infamy.

〔十七〕但倘若月亮从水星流离，光满而行向金星，就会造就香料、或颜料、或颜色、或药物、或宝石的发现者，或以技艺制作珍贵长衣的人，或管风琴师、或哑剧演员、或醉心于各种舞蹈的人、或以甜美的歌喉愉悦他人的人，但他们生活中等，既不富于资财，也不被必需之物的匮乏压下；然而随着时间的推移，资财的增长仍会授予这些人；在男女交合上，它使他们好色，总缠于某些恶习，并因此被不断的恶名攻击。

[18] But if, diminished in light, in a night nativity, the Moon, flowing away from Mercury, is moving toward Venus, it makes men rich, powerful, commanding, great, to whom the guardianship of regions or of the greatest cities is entrusted, especially if the Moon, freed from the rays of the Sun, is found in the sign of the Ascendant, and also if Venus, in like manner freed from the rays of the Sun, has received the course of the approaching Moon in the places we have mentioned. But if this conjunction is in the other places of the nativity, it will make honorable men, engaged in many businesses, and they seek for themselves the substance of a patrimony by their own strength.

〔十八〕但倘若光减，在夜间的本命盘里，月亮从水星流离而行向金星，就会使人富有、有权势、善号令、伟大，地区或极大城市的保护托付给他们，尤其是倘若月亮脱离了太阳的光线，被发现在上升的星座，又倘若金星同样脱离了太阳的光线，在我们所说的宫位接住了前来的月亮的运行。但倘若这次会合在本命的其余宫位，就会使人体面，从事许多生意，凭自己的力量为自己谋得祖产的实质。

[19] But if by day, diminished in light, it is moving toward Venus, and this conjunction is in the Midheaven or in the tenth place from the Ascendant, it grants the palms and crowns of the sacred contest, or causes them to be set over sacred contests, or makes builders of temples or consecrators of images, or at any rate temple-wardens, or chief priests, or men who handle great offices in temples.

〔十九〕但倘若在白天，光减而行向金星，这次会合又在中天，即从上升点起的第十宫，就赐予神圣竞赛的棕榈枝与冠冕，或使人主管神圣的竞赛，或造就神庙的营造者或神像的奉献者，或者至少是神庙守护人、或祭司长、或在神庙中担任要职的人。

[20] But if this conjunction is in the other places of the nativity, it makes men moderate in means, accustomed to practise the arts of metals. Very often it makes tanners and men accustomed to trade in spices; it also makes them polishers of precious gems or men who paint upon gems another appearance of color from various kinds of pigments; or it will make decorators or sculptors of images or craftsmen, or men who chant sacred hymns in temples, or it will make flute-players of the temples, and men who have knowledge of heavenly things, or who know heavenly secrets, or who thoroughly learn hidden and secret things with easy method, so that on these grounds the supports of life are sought for them.

〔二十〕但倘若这次会合在本命的其余宫位，就使人资财中等，惯于从事金属的技艺。它常造就制革匠与惯于贩卖香料的人，还使他们做珍贵宝石的打磨者，或用各种颜料在宝石上画出另一种颜色样貌的人；或会造就装饰匠、或神像的雕刻者、或工匠，或在神庙中吟唱神圣颂歌的人，或会造就神庙的吹笛手，以及对天上之事有所认识、或知晓天上奥秘、或以简便的方法透彻学得隐秘深藏之事的人，以致凭这些机缘为他们谋得生计的依靠。
