BOOK VI

卷六

I.

第一章

[1] Our discourse has frequently admonished you, Mavortius, our glory, about the mixtures of the planets, impressing upon you nothing else in all our pronouncements, nothing else in the substance of the decrees, than the efficacy of a mixed tempering, especially since in the nativities of men the first angles do one thing and the second angles another.

〔一〕马沃尔提乌斯，我们的光荣，我们的论述常常就行星的混合告诫你，在一切论断中、在判定的实质中，向你灌输的不是别的，正是混合调和的效力，尤其是因为在人的本命盘里，第一等的角做一件事，第二等的角做另一件事。

[2] For the first angles occupy the Ascendant and the Midheaven, the second angles take in the lower Midheaven and the Descendant; and from the always varied and contrary power of these four angles the whole substance of the nativity is known, and all the planets, according to the powers of their own nature, decree one thing when placed in the first angles and another in the second.

〔二〕因为第一等的角占住上升点与中天，第二等的角包括天底与下降点；从这四个角总是多变而相反的力量，可以认出本命的全部实质，而一切行星依其本性的力量，落在第一等的角时判定一件事，落在第二等的角时判定另一件事。

[3] The fifth and eleventh places from the Ascendant too, that is, those of Good Fortune and of the Good Daemon, differ from the inert lowliness of the idle places; nor are they joined by any association of aspect with the idle and cast-down places, but they are associated with the Ascendant by a fortunate association of aspect. The third efficacy in decreeing is allotted to the ninth and third places from the Ascendant, because the Ascendant joins these places too to itself in the greatest partnership of association.

〔三〕从上升点起的第五宫与第十一宫，即好运与善灵之宫，也与闲置宫位的怠惰卑下不同；它们不以任何相位的结伴与闲置而被抛下的宫位相结，而是以幸运的相位结伴与上升点相连。判定的第三等效力分给从上升点起的第九宫与第三宫，因为上升点也以最大的结伴之合伙把这些宫位与自己相结。

[4] But the second and eighth places from the Ascendant are separated from all partnership with the Ascendant, the bond of association being dissolved. [lacuna] every principle of association excludes the sixth and twelfth places from the Ascendant and assails them with the precarious lowliness of being cast down.

〔四〕但从上升点起的第二宫与第八宫，结伴的纽带解开了，与上升点的一切合伙都隔开。〔此处原文有缺〕结伴的一切道理都把从上升点起的第六宫与第十二宫排除在外，并以被抛下的朝不保夕的卑下攻击它们。

[5] From this variety of the places the power of the planets is either raised up or falls, just as we showed in the preceding exposition; for in the third book we comprehended in detail what each planet decrees when placed in each place.

〔五〕行星的力量就从宫位的这种差别中或被抬起、或跌落，正如我们在前面的阐述中所显示的；因为在第三卷里，我们已逐一概括了每颗行星落在每个宫位判定什么。

[6] But pray with whatever prayers you can that the course of neither the benefic nor the malefic planets should ever occupy the sixth or twelfth place from the Ascendant, or the second or the eighth either, in the decrees of men. For these places are always occupied by all the planets with hostile aspects.

〔六〕但你要以你所能的一切祈祷恳求：在人的判定中，无论吉星还是凶星的运行，都永远不要占住从上升点起的第六宫或第十二宫，也不要占住第二宫或第八宫。因为这些宫位总被一切行星以敌对的相位占据。

[7] For whatever star has settled in these places either loses the salutary protection of its goodness, or, if it is malignant, is strengthened to do harm more strongly, its power of malice exasperated. In these places the malefic planets placed with the Moon decree, generally and without any remedy, the ruin of misfortunes; while the benefics, shut up in a way in the hidden lowliness of these places, lose the salutary protection of their power.

〔七〕因为无论哪颗星安居在这些宫位，它或者失去自己善良的有益护佑，或者，倘若它是恶性的，就被激怒了恶意的力量，被加强得更有力地为害。在这些宫位里，与月亮同在的凶星笼统地、毫无补救地判定不幸的毁灭；而吉星好像被关在这些宫位隐蔽的卑下之中，失去它们力量的有益护佑。

[8] And the diverse and changeable condition of the planets works one thing in day nativities and another in night ones, and they have various powers of decreeing when the individual planets are joined to one another by a trine, square, or opposite aspect.

〔八〕行星多样而多变的状况，在白天的本命盘里起一种作用，在夜间的本命盘里起另一种作用；当各颗行星以三分、四分或对冲的相位彼此相结时，它们有种种不同的判定之力。

[9] For from this the whole association of the mixtures is tempered, from this the whole power of the decrees is discerned. For the planets, always set against one another according to their nature or their condition, compose the fates of men with an even moderation of variety.

〔九〕因为整个混合的结伴由此调和，判定的全部力量由此辨明。因为行星依其本性或其状况总彼此相对，以变化均衡的节度组成人们的命运。

[10] This substance of the mixtures I shall now explain to you, Mavortius, our glory, so that I may impart to you the full discipline of this divine wisdom. But before our discourse comes to the explanation of the mixtures, I shall tell you a few things about the royal powers of the bright stars, so that the beginnings of this book may be adorned with the explanations of the august stars.

〔十〕马沃尔提乌斯，我们的光荣，我现在要向你解释混合的这种实质，好把这门神圣智慧的完整学问传授给你。但在我们的论述来到混合的解释之前，我要就明亮星辰的王者之力向你说几句，好让这一卷的开头以庄严星辰的解释为饰。

第二章

On the Bright Stars of the Signs.

论星座里的明亮星辰

[1] We find bright stars, shining with the august radiance of majesty, in all the signs, but royal ones in four, namely in Leo, in Scorpio, in Aquarius, and in Taurus. But in which degrees of these you may find the august light I shall show in a brief discourse.

〔一〕我们发现，在一切星座里都有明亮的星，以威严庄严的光芒闪耀；但王者之星只在四个星座里，即在狮子、天蝎、水瓶与金牛。它们在这些星座的哪些度数，可以让你找到那庄严之光，我将以简短的论述显示。

[2] The fifth degree of Leo has a star shining with brilliant splendor. If the Moon, waxing in light, has been found at this star, occupying partilely the angle of the Ascendant or of the Midheaven, it decrees kingdoms and the greatest commands of power.

〔二〕狮子的第五度有一颗以明亮光彩闪耀的星。倘若光正盈长的月亮被发现在这颗星上，精确到度地占住上升点或中天之角，就判定王国与权力最大的统辖。

[3] The 20th degree of Aquarius too is adorned with a like splendor of majesty. For if the Moon, full of light, has risen at this star, that is, in the 20th degree of Aquarius, and occupies the first angles of the nativity, it decrees in a like manner the insignia of royal power and imperial rank. And the 15th degree of Taurus, and the 27th and the 30th, are adorned alike with light and with majesty. For if the Moon has been found in the 15th degree of Taurus, it decrees increases of the most powerful [lacuna] and of abundant substance, if it has occupied the first angles of the nativity.

〔三〕水瓶的第二十度也以同样的威严光彩为饰。因为倘若光满的月亮在这颗星上、即在水瓶第二十度升起，并占住本命的第一等之角，就同样判定王者权力与皇帝品级的徽章。金牛的第十五度，以及第二十七度与第三十度，同样以光与威严为饰。因为倘若月亮被发现在金牛第十五度，并占住本命的第一等之角，就判定最有权势的〔此处原文有缺〕与丰沛资财的增长。

[4] If the Moon has been found in the twenty-seventh degree of Taurus, it decrees the insignia of great rank and makes such men as sustain the life of the greatest peoples by their power, granting the people whatever has been demanded by popular desire, and consecrating magnificent and splendid offerings to the temples, so that they are honored for these things with the everlasting splendors of glory.

〔四〕倘若月亮被发现在金牛的第二十七度，就判定大品级的徽章，并造就这样的人：凭自己的权力维持最大民族的生活，把民众热望所要求的一切都赐给民众，并向神庙献上豪华壮丽的供品，以致他们因这些事而以永久的荣耀光彩受到尊荣。

[5] The thirtieth degree of Taurus too, as we have said, gleams with the divine light of majesty; for if the Moon has been found in this degree as well, it decrees the insignia and license of great power. And if, placed in this degree, it has been found in the first angles, it decrees generalships, commands, and kingship, especially if Jupiter has aspected it, waxing in light, with a prosperous aspect.

〔五〕如我们所说，金牛的第三十度也以威严的神圣之光闪耀；因为倘若月亮也被发现在这一度，就判定大权力的徽章与放手之权。倘若落在这一度的月亮被发现在第一等之角，就判定将领之职、统辖与王位，尤其是倘若木星以顺遂的相位照着光正盈长的它。

[6] For then, lifted up by the license of their power and possessing dominion over both sea and land, they lead an army fortunately both by sea and by land. The 7th degree in Scorpio will also accomplish these same things. For a like splendor of majesty adorns that degree.

〔六〕因为那时，他们被自己权力的放手之权抬起，拥有海与陆的统治，在海上陆上都顺利地统领军队。天蝎的第七度也会成就这同样的事。因为同样的威严光彩装饰着那一度。

[7] But in this degree the Moon, placed in the first angles, together with the preceding insignia of rank, decrees the horror of dire cruelty and immoderate terror. For those who have the Moon so, placed in the greatest license of power, rage against all men with the heat of unbridled greed.

〔七〕但在这一度，落在第一等之角的月亮，在前面所说的品级徽章之外，还判定可怕的残忍与无节制的恐怖的惊骇。因为这样拥有月亮的人，被置于权力最大的放手之权中，以不受约束的贪欲之热度向所有人肆虐。

[8] These few things we have gathered for you in the meantime from the books of the Myriogenesis; but when this work has been set out, we shall render those promised things as well. Now we make known all the mixtures of the planets, as we promised, so that, with every tempering of the mixtures composed, we may explain the whole of what we promised. For about the bright stars of all the signs and about their decrees I shall tell you everything in detail in the last book, that is, the eighth.

〔八〕这几点我们暂且从《万命书》各卷里为你汇集；但这部著作讲完之后，我们也会交出那些所许诺的东西。现在我们按所许诺的，告知行星的一切混合，好让混合的每一种调和都组成之后，我们解释所许诺的全部。因为关于一切星座里的明亮星辰及其判定，我将在最后一卷、即第八卷里逐一告诉你。

III.

第三章

Saturn and Jupiter in Trine.

土星与木星成三分

[1] All the planets, if they have aspected one another with a trine aspect, whether benefic or malefic, are brought together in prosperous temperings of mixtures; and the wickedness of the malefics is mitigated by this aspect, while the salutary benefits of the benefics grow strong.

〔一〕一切行星，无论吉星还是凶星，倘若以三分相彼此相照，就以混合的顺遂调和配在一起；凶星的邪恶因这种相位而减轻，吉星的有益恩惠则变得强健。

[2] If, then, Saturn has been joined to Jupiter by a trine aspect, and this conjunction has avoided the idle and cast-down places, and both are in the signs in which they rejoice, or one of them, placed in its own house, aspects the other with a trine aspect, and they are associated with the Ascendant by a partile aspect, they decree boundless abundance with great felicity, especially if one of the two, that is, either Saturn or Jupiter, has received the light of the waxing Moon.

〔二〕所以，倘若土星以三分相与木星相结，这一相结又避开了闲置而被抛下的宫位，两者都在它们所喜乐的星座里，或其中一颗落在自己的庙里以三分相照着另一颗，并且它们以精确到度的相位与上升点结伴，就以极大的幸福判定无限的丰盛，尤其是倘若两者之一、即土星或木星，接受了盈长中的月亮之光。

[3] For then Saturn bestows the ownership of boundless riches and great possessions; then it decrees sown lands, fields, then pastures and woodland glades. It will also make men public builders of certain sacred buildings, so that from this building the greatest merit of rank accrues to them. It will also make collectors of the payments due to the treasury, or men set over the sacred grain supply, and in these activities it confers the greatest rank of power.

〔三〕因为那时，土星赐予无限财富与大产业的所有权；那时它判定播种的土地、田地，那时判定牧场与林野。它还会使人成为某些神圣建筑的公共营造者，以致从这番营造中他们得到品级的最大功劳。它还会造就征收应缴国库之款的人，或掌管神圣粮政的人，并在这些作为中授予权力的最大品级。

[4] It will also make them superior without limit to their father's rank; but according to the measure and substance of the nativity it confers on some the duties of stewardship, on others the advantages of very great inheritances, on others gains sought by another's labor. All of these, however, it commends to powerful and very great men by the incorrupt insinuation of their good faith.

〔四〕它还会使他们无限地高于父亲的品级；但依本命的分量与实质，它把管理的职务授予一些人，把极大遗产的好处授予另一些人，把借他人劳苦求得的收益授予另一些人。但它以信义的不可败坏的引荐，把所有这些人都推荐给有权势的、极伟大的人。

[5] But if, with Saturn and Jupiter joined by a trine aspect as we have said, Mercury is associated with them by an equal aspect, it entrusts them with the secrets of sacred and inaccessible religions, or makes them handle the duties of great cities or of kings, and makes them such men that kings entrust to them all the duties of their own activity; frequently kings also impose on them the office of a distinguished embassy.

〔五〕但倘若土星与木星如我们所说以三分相相结，而水星以同等的相位与它们结伴，它就把神圣而不可接近之宗教的秘密托付给他们，或使他们经办大城市或君王的职务，并使他们成为这样的人：君王把自己作为的一切职务都托付给他们；君王也常把显赫使节的职任加给他们。

[6] But these men are wearied by excessive misfortunes from the mishaps of their children, and, losing their children, they are either compelled to rear another's offspring, or at any rate they receive their own children back, after a long span of time, brought up by others. But these things come about if it is a day nativity without the testimony of Mars.

〔六〕但这些人因子女的意外而受过度的不幸所困，失去子女之后，或者被迫抚养别人的后代，或者至少在长时间之后，收回由别人养大的自己的子女。但这些事发生在没有火星见证的白天本命盘里。

[7] For if either Mars has struck this mixture with a threatening aspect, or it is a night nativity, all these things we have mentioned are diminished. Beyond this, it also decrees the reproach of envy and contrarieties, and assails with the hidden envy of evil insinuation, or the hostile testimony of Mars assails the whole of whatever good has been decreed.

〔七〕因为倘若火星以威胁的相位打击这一混合，或本命盘是夜间的，我们所说的这一切都会减少。此外，它还判定嫉妒的指责与种种违逆，以恶意中伤的隐秘嫉妒攻击他们，或者火星的敌对见证攻击所判定的一切好事。

Saturn and Mars in Trine.

土星与火星成三分

[8] If Saturn has been joined to Mars by a trine aspect, and this association is in suitable places of the nativity, and both are in the signs in which they rejoice, or in the degrees in which they rejoice, or in those in which they are exalted, and the testimony of Jupiter or Mercury is not lacking to them, they will produce the greatest gains and decree increases of daily profit.

〔八〕倘若土星以三分相与火星相结，这一结伴又在本命合宜的宫位，两者都在所喜乐的星座、或所喜乐的度数、或所入旺的度数里，而且不缺木星或水星的见证，它们就会造成最大的收益，并判定每日营利的增长。

[9] They will also make such men as a prosperous outcome follows in all their activities, and who in every activity are raised up by the license of power, procuring for themselves the greatest insignia of rank by their own labors; known, noble, imperious, and governing the offices of the greatest cities. But these men constantly look upon the deaths of their elder brothers.

〔九〕它们还会造就这样的人：在一切作为上都有顺遂的结局跟随，在每一件作为中都被权力的放手之权抬起，凭自己的劳苦为自己取得品级的最大徽章；知名、高贵、好发号施令，治理最大城市的职务。但这些人会不断看到兄长的死亡。

Saturn and the Sun in Trine.

土星与太阳成三分

[10] If Saturn has been joined to the Sun by a trine aspect, and both are placed in suitable places of the nativity and separated from all lowliness, and it is also a day nativity, they heap up the insignia of life with constant promotions in rank, decree the power of the greatest glory, and confer renown and nobility; they will also cause their parents to be adorned with a like increase of rank, especially if they have been associated by this aspect while placed in masculine signs. But if it is a night nativity, after the father's means have been squandered, they will cause a patrimony to be conferred on them by their own virtue.

〔十〕倘若土星以三分相与太阳相结，两者都落在本命合宜的宫位，与一切卑下隔开，而本命盘又是白天的，它们就以不断的品级升迁堆积人生的徽章，判定最大荣耀的权力，并授予名声与高贵；它们还会使他们的父母以同样的品级增长为饰，尤其是倘若它们落在阳性星座里以这种相位结伴。但倘若本命盘是夜间的，在父亲的资财挥霍之后，它们会使祖产凭他们自己的德行授予他们。

Saturn and Venus in Trine.

土星与金星成三分

[11] If Saturn has been joined to Venus by a trine aspect, and both are placed in suitable places of the nativity and separated from all the lowliness of falls, they will make men's life conspicuous for gentle moderation, and adorn their character with the ornament of chaste and good conduct, and make them removed from all the impurity of unchastity, and also agreeable and conspicuous for chastity and purity, so that from this very conspicuousness envy is stirred up against them by their inferiors [text uncertain]. But they cause these same men to be joined late in the affections of marriage.

〔十一〕倘若土星以三分相与金星相结，两者都落在本命合宜的宫位，与跌落的一切卑下隔开，它们会使人的生活以温和的节度而显明，以贞洁良好的品行之饰装点他们的品格，使他们远离不贞的一切不洁，又讨人喜欢，以贞洁与纯净而显明，以致正因这种显明，下层之人对他们激起嫉妒〔原文疑有讹误〕。但它们使这些人晚结婚姻的情意。

Saturn and Mercury in Trine.

土星与水星成三分

[12] If Saturn has been joined with Mercury by a trine aspect, and both are placed in suitable places of the nativity and separated from all the lowliness of falls, they will make men sensible, ingenious, and always applied to every duty of the disciplines; but they will cause their character to be adorned early with the weight of gravity, and render them such men as have counsels that always grow strong by lively reasoning; and they will either give them activities based on accounts, or at any rate set them over the public computations and the treasury, or they will make royal scribes, so that great supports of means are conferred on them from these activities. But it is fitting for us to remember this, that the star of Mercury alone rejoices when placed in the 12th place from the Ascendant.

〔十二〕倘若土星以三分相与水星相结，两者都落在本命合宜的宫位，与跌落的一切卑下隔开，它们会使人明理、机巧，总投身于学问的一切职分；它们会使他们的品格早早以庄重的分量为饰，使他们成为谋划总以活泼的推理而强健的人；它们或给他们以账目为本的作为，或至少把他们置于公共计算与国库之上，或造就王家的书记，以致从这些作为中，大的资财之助授予他们。但我们应当记住这一点：唯有水星之星落在从上升点起的第十二宫时喜乐。

Saturn and the Moon in Trine.

土星与月亮成三分

[13] If Saturn has been joined to the Moon by a trine aspect, and both are placed in suitable places of the nativity and separated from all the lowliness of falls, and the Moon is full of light, they always commend those who have them so to kings, or emperors, or powerful men with a prosperous or fortunate recommendation, and the greatest insignia of glory are decreed from this conjunction. But if the Moon is diminished in light, the aforesaid increases of felicity are diminished.

〔十三〕倘若土星以三分相与月亮相结，两者都落在本命合宜的宫位，与跌落的一切卑下隔开，而月亮光满，它们就总以顺遂或幸运的推荐，把这样拥有它们的人引荐给君王、或皇帝、或有权势的人，从这一相结中判定荣耀的最大徽章。但倘若月亮的光亏减，前面所说的幸福增长就会减少。

[14] And with regard to the Moon too we ought to remember this, that it alone is found fortunately in the 8th place from the Ascendant in a night nativity, especially if in this place it is full of light in the signs or terms in which it rejoices. For then, from the power of this place, it decrees the insignia of felicity, then of rank, then the greatest supports of means, then dignities, then leadership. And placed in this place by day it likewise decrees these same things, if Jupiter has been found in the 11th place from the Ascendant.

〔十四〕关于月亮，我们也应当记住这一点：在夜间的本命盘里，唯有它落在从上升点起的第八宫是幸运的，尤其是倘若它在这个宫位、在所喜乐的星座或界里光满。因为那时，它从这个宫位的力量判定幸福的徽章，那时品级的徽章，那时最大的资财之助，那时尊位，那时首领之位。白天落在这个宫位，倘若木星被发现在从上升点起的第十一宫，它也同样判定这些。
