卷四·第二节第十七章　火星作年主在十二星座

CHAP. XVII. Shewing the Significations of Mars, when he is Lord of the year in any of the twelve Signs.

第十七章　说明火星作年主时在十二星座中任何一个的征象。

IN the next place you see follows Mars who is next under Jupiter, and therefore now to be treated of; wherefore if he be Lord of the year, and in Aries, he signifies many great and high winds, and various mutations in the ayr, in the Eastern parts especially; he signifies also little or no rain, and that men shall have pain in their eyes, and quarrels, dissentions and debates amonst men, especially in the Eastern parts, and such places and Cities subject to Aries, and that Kings shall disagree amongst themselves and fight: but understand, this is when he is maliciously aspected of Saturn, or any other Infortune.

接下来你看到的是火星，他在木星之下，所以现在要讲他；所以若他是年主，又在白羊，他表示许多又大又猛的风，空气多种变化，尤其在东部；他也表示少雨或无雨，人们会眼痛，人们之间有争吵、纷争与辩论，尤其在东部以及隶属白羊的地方与城市，国王们会彼此不和、交战：但要明白，这是在他受土星或任何其他凶星恶意的相位时。

But if he be free from their affliction, as also retrogradation and combustion, the common people in that Revolution, as also those subject unto Aries, shall be in a happy and good condition, shall prosper and overcome all their enemies; the ayr shall be temperate, and the year fruitful, and there shall be much plenty, chiefly if he be then Lord of the Ascendent, and men shall generally be joyful and merry, as having no other cause.

但若他免于它们的侵害，也免于逆行与焦伤，那次回归中的庶民，以及隶属白羊的人们，会处在幸福良好的状况，会兴旺，胜过他们一切敌人；空气会温和，年成丰饶，会很丰足，主要是若他那时是上升主星，人们一般也会欢喜快乐，因为没有别的缘故。

And if he have Sepentrional latitude, he notes little or no rain, and a hot ayr.

若他有北方纬度，他表示少雨或无雨，空气炎热。

If he have Meridional latitude, he denotes much thunder and lightning.

若他有南方纬度，他表示多雷多电。

Also if he be Oriental, wars and discords amongst noble, great and rich men, or such as are the Grandees of the earth.

还有，若他东出，贵人、大人物与富人，或世上的显要之间有战争与不和。

But if he be Occidental, many fears and troubles shall fall upon men, as also discords and contentions.

但若他西入，许多恐惧与麻烦会落在人们身上，还有不和与争执。

Again, if he be retrograde, men shall be perplexed with many infirmities in many parts of their body, but especially in their eyes.

再者，若他逆行，人们会受身体许多部位的许多疾病所困，但尤其在眼睛。

But if direct and combust, or otherways impedited, men shall be hypocritical, cloathed in sheeps cloathing, but shall inwardly be ravening woolves.

但若他顺行而焦伤，或在别的方面受阻，人们会伪善，披着羊皮，里面却是贪婪的狼。

Also, if Mars be Lord of the year in any Revolution, and in Taurus, he denotes many great Southern winds and blasts, very hurtful and destructive to the fruits of the earth, by reason sudden heats will follow thereupon: there shall also be many showers of rain, and much thunder and lightning, death to greater cattel and women, or at least many tribulations and crosses unto them: also the year shall not be fruitful, nor healthful, the fruits shall be blasted, and rotten, and the seeds of the earth destroyed.

还有，若在任何回归中火星是年主，又在金牛，他表示许多大南风与阵风，对地上的果实非常有害、有毁坏，因为随之会有骤热：也会有许多阵雨，许多雷电，大牲畜与妇女死亡，或至少她们有许多苦难挫折：这一年也不会丰饶，也不健康，果实会枯萎腐烂，地里的种子被毁。

And if he have North latitude, he signifies much rain, and somewhat the more good unto the herbs and fruits of the earth.

若他有北纬，他表示多雨，对地上的草木与果实稍好一些。

But if South latitude, he denotes many gusts of wind and blasts (as you have heard) and destruction to the fruits of the earth.

但若是南纬，他表示许多阵风（如你所听到的），以及地上果实的毁坏。

If he be Oriental, there shall be peace in the Southern and Western parts.

若他东出，南部与西部会有和平。

And if Occidental, he denotes much death, and many infirmities, especially to women, and that they shall be hated if he be direct and otherways impedited.

若他西入，他表示多死亡、多病，尤其在妇女，若他顺行而在别的方面受阻，她们会被人憎恶。

But if he be Retrograde, many children and young people shall dye, during the time of that Revolution.

但若他逆行，那次回归期间会有许多儿童与年轻人死亡。

But if Mars be Lord of the year, and in Gemini, many casualties and damage shall befal men through thunder, and lightning, and little rain, or through the want thereof also by excess of heat; there shall also be debates and contentions, thefts and robberies in the Northern and Western parts; the King or chief Rulers shall be exalted and overcome their enemies; there shall be many griefs of the ears, as inflammations and pustules which shall be very offensive and troublesome to men.

但若火星是年主而在双子，人们会因雷电，因少雨或缺雨，也因过热，遭到许多意外与损害；北部与西部也会有辩论争执、偷盗抢劫；国王或首要的统治者会被擢升，胜过他们的敌人；会有许多耳病，如发炎与脓疱，叫人非常难受烦恼。

And if he have North latitude, he signifies much rain; but if his latitude be South, there shall be a drought of fountains, and a scarcety of water.

若他有北纬，他表示多雨；但若他的纬度是南方的，就会泉水干涸，水短缺。

If Oriental, he causeth many infirmities, pustules, scabs, and breakings out in the skin; and if Occidental, he denotes much trouble and anxiety to Lawyers, Scribes, Merchants and Judges, and that some of them shall run away by reason of their injustice, extortion and cheating tricks.

若东出，他引起许多疾病，脓疱、疥疮与皮肤上的疹子；若西入，他表示律师、书吏、商人与法官有许多麻烦焦虑，其中有些人会因他们的不公、勒索与欺诈伎俩而逃走。

Again, if he be Direct, men shall be blabs of their tongues, and divuldge both their own and others secrets, committed to their charge; and when he is Retrograde, religious men, or such as take such kinde of functions on them, shall clash, disagree and contend upon some nice points.

再者，若他顺行，人们会多嘴，泄露自己与别人托付给他们的秘密；当他逆行时，修道之人，或担任那类职务的人，会在某些细节上冲突、不和、争论。

Again, if Mars in any annual Revolution of the world, be Lord of the year in Cancer, he shall signifie frequent shipwracks, by reason of sudden blasts of wind; also dissentions and quarrels in the Western and Northwest parts, and that men shall suffer much damage under taxations; many infirmities also are threatned, feavers, pains and infirmities in the throat and breast; the ayr shall be grievous and contagious, and a want of rain; also the year shall be turbulent and dangerous, many cattel, especially horses shall dye, the fruits of the earth generally shall be wanting, and there shall be a palpable scarcety thereof.

再者，若在世界的任何年度回归中火星是年主而在巨蟹，他会表示频繁的沉船，因为骤起的阵风；也表示西部与西北部的纷争与争吵，人们会在课税之下受到许多损害；也预示许多疾病，热病，喉与胸的疼痛与疾病；空气会恶劣而有传染性，也缺雨；这一年也会动荡危险，许多牲畜，尤其是马会死，地上的果实普遍会短缺，有明显的匮乏。

And if his latitude be Septentrional, there shall be grievous sharp cold weather in winter, and a drought of fountains: also if he have Meridional latitude, many noisom gusts of wind, very destructive to trees and fruits.

若他的纬度是北方的，冬季会有严酷的寒冷，泉水干涸：还有，若他有南方纬度，会有许多有害的阵风，对树木与果实很有毁坏。

If he be Oriental there shall be a death or mortality amonst such creatures as are kept upon Commons, and in the open fields: when Occidental, the common people shall be very careful and industrious in their ordinary imployments and negotiations.

若他东出，养在公地与旷野上的那类牲畜会有死亡疫病：西入时，庶民会在他们平常的职业与营生上非常小心勤勉。

And if it be Direct, the ayr shall be healthy and pleasant; but if he be Retrograde, men shall be lascivious, and study how they may opportunely commit Adulteries and Fornications.

若他顺行，空气会健康宜人；但若他逆行，人们会淫荡，琢磨怎样趁机行奸淫苟合之事。

Yet again, if Mars be Lord of the year, and in Leo, he signifies wars, contentions, and discords and a scarcity of provisions, and the fruits of the earth, in the Eastern parts especially: also death amongst men, and that chiefly to those of younger years; and if he have Septentrional latitude, there shall be a scarcity of waters; but if he be Meridional, there shall be no want thereof; if Oriental, damage to such beasts as are useful to mankinde, especially the greater sort; Occidental, fish, and such creatures as inhabit the water shall be destroyed and dye:

又，若火星是年主而在狮子，他表示战争、争执、不和，粮食与地上果实的匮乏，尤其在东部：也有人间的死亡，主要是年纪较轻的人；若他有北方纬度，会缺水；但若他是南纬的，就不缺水；若东出，对人类有用的牲畜，尤其是大的那一类，会受损害；西入时，鱼以及住在水里的那类生物会被毁、死亡：

If he be Retrograde, loss and detriment shall be to the great and rich men of the earth; and if he be Direct, many great Western winds, and ships shall be safe and secure at Sea.

若他逆行，世上的大人物与富人会有损失损害；若他顺行，会有许多大西风，船在海上会安全稳妥。

Moreover, if Mars be in Virgo, and Lord of the year, he denotes war and effusion of blood in the Northern parts; also pains and griefs in the eyes, plenty of provision and fruits of the earth, death to many women, &c. And if he be Septentrional, damage to fruits and seeds; also infirmities to mans body: if Meridional, success to the fruits, &c. if Oriental, the death of old men: if Occidental, he denotes great and tempestuous winds; if Direct, he denotes the good and prosperity of rich and great men; if Retrograde, wars shall happen amonst men.

还有，若火星在处女，又是年主，他表示北部的战争与流血；也有眼睛的疼痛疾病，粮食与地上果实丰足，许多妇女死亡，等等。若他北纬，果实与种子受损；人身也多病：若南纬，果实有成，等等，若东出，老人死亡：若西入，他表示猛烈的大风暴；若顺行，他表示富人与大人物的好处与兴旺；若逆行，人间会发生战争。

When Mars is Lord of the year, and in Libra, he signifies vehement and great winds, infirmities and mortalities, and more especially to men then women; also winds rain and clouds, also mists, and those chiefly Southward, and infirmities and mortalities, a scarcity of the fruits of the earth, corn and wine, many sackings and robberies, quarrels, dissentions and discords amonst men, terrors, fears and tribulations.

当火星是年主而在天秤，他表示猛烈的大风，疾病与死亡，尤其在男人比在女人多；还有风、雨与云，还有雾，主要在南方，还有疾病与死亡，地上果实、谷物与酒的匮乏，许多劫掠抢夺，人们之间的争吵、纷争与不和，惊恐、畏惧与苦难。

And if he have Septentrional latitude, there shall be many thunderings and lightnings; if Meridional, many infirmities amonst men, especially on the left side; and if he be Oriental, he signifies wars and dissentions amonst rich and noble men; if Occidental, rich noble and great men shall be safe and secure; if Retrograde, sickness shall be incident to noble, great, rich men and Judges; if Direct, it will not be so bad with them.

若他有北方纬度，会有许多雷电；若南纬，人们多病，尤其在左侧；若他东出，他表示富人与贵人之间的战争与纷争；若西入，富人、贵人与大人物会安全稳妥；若逆行，贵人、大人物、富人与法官会患病；若顺行，他们就不会那么坏。

Again, when Mars is Lord of the year, and accidentally located in Scorpio, he signifies much misty and cloudy weather, also much cold in winter, and very excessive heat and intemperate ayr in Summer, for which cause the fruits of the earth shall be much damnified, as also the herbs and seeds shall be much hurt; men shall be molested with pains and griefs in the eyes, thefts and robberies, quarrels and debates, as also deceits and frauds, and a scarcity of fruits and provisions:

再者，当火星是年主，又偶然位于天蝎，他表示多雾多云的天气，冬季也多寒冷，夏季极为炎热、空气不调，因此地上的果实会大受损害，草与种子也会大受伤害；人们会受眼睛的疼痛疾病所扰，有偷盗抢劫、争吵辩论，也有欺骗诈伪，果实与粮食匮乏：

Also if he be Septentrional, there shall be a scarcity of water; if Meridional, abundance of water; if Oriental, many infirmities shall be incident to man, especially in the lower and secret parts, if other testimonies concur; if Occidental, small Piety among men; if Retrograde, he denotes many tribulations, fears and troubles; if Direct, things will be so much the better.

还有，若他北纬，会缺水；若南纬，水很多；若东出，若其他见证相合，人会多病，尤其在下部与私处；若西入，人间少虔敬；若逆行，他表示许多苦难、恐惧与麻烦；若顺行，事情就会好得多。

Also Mars in Sagittary, if he be Lord of the year, he signifies wars shall happen in the Eastern parts; also damage and mischief unto the inhabitants of those parts, and the Regions subject to the sign Sagittary; death, infirmities, coughs and infirmities in the eyes, as also in the loyns and back; little or no rain, and extream cold weather in winter, as also the spring, so that the fruits of trees shall be blasted and nipt; also plants, herbs and seeds shall be very much damnified, and the year generally shall be scarce and indigent of provisions, also honey shall not be plentiful; for by reason of the scarcity of herbs, Bees shall many of them be destroyed: and if therein he be well aspected, and free from the Malevolent Aspects of the Infortunes, all such as bear arms, or have any relation thereunto of what degree soever, shall be in good condition, fortunate and successful.

还有，火星在射手，若他是年主，他表示东部会发生战争；也有对那些地方以及隶属射手星座的地区的居民的损害祸害；死亡、疾病、咳嗽与眼疾，还有腰背之病；少雨或无雨，冬季与春季都极冷，以致树上的果实会枯萎冻坏；植物、草与种子也会大受损害，这一年普遍会粮食稀少匮乏，蜂蜜也不会丰足；因为由于草少，许多蜜蜂会死掉：若他在那里相位良好，免于凶星的凶相位，一切执兵器或与之有任何关系的人，不论什么级别，都会处境良好、幸运、顺利。

Some of the Ancients with Albumazar say, that if Mars be in the last fifteen degrees of Sagittary, and Lord of the year in any Revolution, or in any humane Sign, he denotes wars, tumults and insurrections of the people against their King and Superiors, sudden death, feavers both Tertian, Quartan, and Pestilential, and many other infirmities, robbings, sackings and polings, bloodshed, fire and sword, and lightnings, and if he be Infortunately aspected by the Malevolents, and otherways also debilitated, he signifies all these things you have now heard, but more mischievously, unless the Benevolent Aspects of Jupiter prevent and contradict his fury.

某些古人与阿布马撒尔说，若在任何回归中火星在射手的后十五度而为年主，或在任何人形星座，他表示战争、骚乱，人民起来反抗他们的国王与上级，暴死，间日热、四日热与瘟疫热，以及许多别的疾病，抢夺、洗劫与盘剥，流血，火与剑，闪电，若他受凶星不幸的相位，又在别的方面无力，他就表示你刚听到的这一切，但更凶，除非木星的吉相位阻止、抵消他的狂暴。

If his latitude be Septentrional, he signifies the ayr shall be good, pleasant and temperate; if Meridional, Merchants and Trades-men shall be on the thriving and gaining hand; if he be Oriental, he denotes peace, quietness and security, and no war; Occidental, the safety of trees, and much fruit; and if Retrograde, he denotes coughs, and pains in the hinder part of the head and neck, also in the thighs; if Direct, a death or mortality amongst cattel.

若他的纬度是北方的，他表示空气良好、宜人、温和；若南纬，商人与生意人会兴旺获利；若他东出，他表示和平、安宁与安全，没有战争；西入时，树木平安，果实多；若逆行，他表示咳嗽，后脑与颈的疼痛，也有大腿的；若顺行，牲畜有死亡疫病。

Again, if Mars be Lord of the year in any Revolution, and located in Capricorn, he denotes wars, tribulation and slaughter to yong men, perplexities and fears to the Eastern parts: also rain in due season, and that moderate, plenty of all provisions, and a fruitful and plentiful year.

再者，若在任何回归中火星是年主而位于摩羯，他表示战争、苦难，青年遭杀戮，东部困惑恐惧：也有合时而适度的雨，一切粮食丰足，是丰饶充裕的一年。

And if he have North latitude, he signifies much snow in those parts where it is usual and requisite if he have Meridional latitude, he denotes a close, hot ayr; if Oriental, let the Roman Emperor have a care of a stob, and so much the more assured will this be if the Moon be in the eighth house or joyned by body or aspect to the Lord thereof, or joyned to Mars in any of the Angles, or indeed any other house, especially in the eighth, or be beheld by the Square or Opposition of the Lord of the eighth; and the more assuredly will this be, and thou mayest be confident thereof, if there be mutual reception also betwixt them, or either of them, and the Lord of the eighth; for if then Jupiter prevent not by his Benevolent beams, and cast his aspect unto Mars or the Moon, he will not escape with life that Revolution, unless God miraculously shew his infinite mercy towards him; if he be Occidental, botches, boyls, and such like, shall molest the bodies of men; if Direct, abundance of plenty is promised during that Revolution; if Retrograde, want, scarcity and penury.

若他有北纬，他表示在那些惯常下雪、也需要下雪的地方多雪，若他有南方纬度，他表示闷热的空气；若东出，罗马皇帝要提防被刺，若月亮在第八宫，或与第八宫主星以星体或相位相联，或与火星在任何角宫相联，或其实在任何别的宫，尤其在第八宫，或被第八宫主星的四分或对冲照看，这就更加确定；若他们之间，或其中任一个与第八宫主星之间又有互容，就更加确定，你可以对此有把握；因为若那时木星不以他的吉光线阻止，不把他的相位投向火星或月亮，那次回归中他就不能活命逃脱，除非上帝奇迹般地显出他无限的怜悯；若他西入，疖子、疮之类会困扰人的身体；若顺行，那次回归期间预示大大丰足；若逆行，就短缺、匮乏、贫困。

Moreover, if Mars be in Aquaries, and Lord of the year, tribulation and trouble is threatned to men during that Revolution; abundance of rain, snow and cold weather in winter and such times as it is usual; a probability of degrading and unthrowning Kings and great Hogens of the times, in those places for which the Revolution of the year is; a scarcity and want of provisions and fruits of the earth, especially in the Western parts; but if he be beheld then by Venus, or the Lord of the Ascendent, and she be then also Septentrional, the spring shall be good and seasonable; and if he be Septentrional, much snow and cold hard weather in winter; if Meridional, much hot weather, but a thick, obscure, muddy ayr; if he be Oriental, it shall be well with great, noble, and rich men, and they shall be jovial, and merry; if Occidental, it will not be so good: but if he be Retrograde, he denotes very hot weather, and detriment to trees and their fruits by reason thereof; if Direct there shall be many Catterpillars, and such like creatures, that shall destroy trees, especially if then the Dragons head be also in this Sign, or in Gemini.

还有，若火星在水瓶而是年主，那次回归期间人们受到苦难麻烦的威胁；冬季以及惯常的时节多雨、多雪、寒冷；在为之起年运盘的那些地方，国王与当时的显赫人物有被贬黜、被废的可能；粮食与地上的果实短缺匮乏，尤其在西部；但若他那时受金星或上升主星照看，而她那时又是北纬的，春季就会良好合时；若他北纬，冬季多雪而严寒；若南纬，多炎热天气，但空气浓厚、昏暗、污浊；若他东出，大人物、贵人与富人会好，会快活喜乐；若西入，就不会那么好：但若他逆行，他表示很热的天气，树与果实因此受损；若顺行，会有许多毛虫及那类生物毁坏树木，尤其若那时龙头也在这个星座，或在双子。

Lastly, if Mars be Lord of the year, and in Pisces, he signifies much snow and rain; also destruction to fish, and such creatures as live in the water, for men shall catch many during that Revolution; the slaying and massacring of Kings and Great men, scarcity of provisions, and the fruits of the earth, and generally it shall be a turbulent and hard year both for man and beast; and if Venus behold the Ascendent, there shall be much thunder and lightning, also much death and mortality amongst men, and grief and pains in their eyes: and if Mars be Septentrional, the ayr shall be good, pleasant and healthy; and if he be Meridional, there shall be many Caterpillars and Locusts in such places, as shall be natural for them, and such like noysom creatures, but they shall not do much hurt: if he be Oriental, he signifies the slaughter of rich and great men: if Occidental, many infirmities shall fall on servants, and the inferior sort of people; and if he be Direct, they shall be safe and in health: also sheep and small cattel shall be in good condition: if Retrograde, the good condition and state of those that follow Trading is also promised, who shall gain and profit.

最后，若火星是年主而在双鱼，他表示多雪多雨；也表示鱼以及住在水里的生物的毁灭，因为那次回归期间人们会捕获很多；国王与大人物遭杀戮屠戮，粮食与地上果实匮乏，对人对牲畜一般都是动荡艰难的一年；若金星照看上升，会有许多雷电，人间也多死亡，眼睛有疼痛疾病：若火星北纬，空气会良好、宜人、健康；若他南纬，在那些本来就生这些东西的地方，会有许多毛虫、蝗虫及那类有害的生物，但它们不会造成多大伤害：若他东出，他表示富人与大人物遭杀戮：若西入，许多疾病会落在仆人与下层人民身上；若他顺行，他们就会平安健康：羊与小牲畜也会处境良好：若逆行，也预示从事贸易的人处境状况良好，会获利得益。
