XXII. On Configurations of Several Planets.

第二十二章　论多颗行星的格局

Saturn, Jupiter, and the Sun are irregular and insecure with respect to acquisitions, friendships, and the other undertakings of affairs; for they bring about losses of what has been acquired and make natives fall into charges arising from envy; and after displaying benefits from unexpected sources or from the dead and increasing the native's glory, they bring about downfalls or charges, sudden dangers, and plots. They also bring about presidencies or guardianships of other people's affairs, tax-collecting or leases, on account of which natives undergo disturbances or lawsuits, and they make the substance of life uneven or fearful.

土星、木星与太阳在获取、友谊与其他事务的营谋上反复无常、不稳固；因为它们带来所获之物的损失，使本命者落入由嫉妒而起的指控；在显出来自意外之处或来自死者的好处、增添本命者的荣耀之后，又带来失势或指控、突然的危险与阴谋。它们也带来对他人事务的主持或监护、收税或承租，本命者为此遭受扰乱或诉讼；它们使生活的根基起伏不齐或令人畏惧。

Saturn, Jupiter, and the Moon are in harmony, procuring glory and benefits, introductions to greater persons, and gifts; natives live in sojourns abroad, and in a foreign land or through foreigners they bring their undertakings to success, not only in their own affairs but also in those of others. They also receive benefits from women, and, coming into acquisitions, they become masters of foundations and lands; some, then, becoming shipowners, have increased their livelihood, or have managed their livelihood by handling things that are produced by means of water.

土星、木星与月亮和谐，促成荣耀与好处、与大人物的引荐以及礼物；本命者在客居异乡中生活，在外邦或借外邦人使自己的事业成功，不只是自己的事，也包括他人的事。他们也从女人得益，进入获取之中，成为产业根基与土地的主人；所以有些人成了船主，增加了生计，或者靠经营借水而生产的东西来维持生计。

Saturn, Jupiter, and Mars bring about blendings of good things; some they make glorious, fit for high priesthood, fit to lead, fit for guardianships, presidents of crowds and of lands or of military affairs, giving commands and being obeyed, not so much adorned with display in their lives, but rolled about amid adversities, accusations, and violent affairs and living in fear. Others they make adorned with substance for their livelihood, masters of property and foundations, and benefited from the dead, but lesser in glory; hence matters will be judged according to the placements and the operations of the signs.

土星、木星与火星带来好事的混合；它们使有些人荣耀、宜于大祭司之职、宜于领导、宜于监护，成为群众与土地或军务的主持者，发令也被服从，生活中并不怎么饰以排场，而是在逆境、控告与暴烈之事中辗转，生活在恐惧里。另一些人被它们装点了生计的根基，成为财产与产业根基的主人，得死者之益，但荣耀较少；所以事情要按诸星的位置与星座的作用来判断。

Saturn, Jupiter, and Venus are good and beneficial for business, acquisitive, bringing about introductions to men and women, friendships, advancements, and benefits from the dead; but they make natives blameworthy and envied in their intimacies and uneven in their unions, enduring coolings from time to time, and enmities or lawsuits. Yet they are fond of companionship and easy to live with, delighting in newer and many friendships; but as regards children and slaves they are not altogether settled, nor do they endure without grief.

土星、木星与金星对买卖是好的、有益的，能获取，带来与男人和女人的引荐、友谊、提拔与来自死者的好处；但它们使本命者在亲密关系中该受指责、遭人嫉妒，在结合上起伏不齐，不时经历冷淡，以及敌意或诉讼。不过他们爱结伴、容易相处，喜欢较新的、众多的友谊；但在子女与奴仆上不全然安定，也不能没有忧伤地度过。

Saturn, Jupiter, and Mercury, when configured together, make natives active, stewards, trustworthy, presidents of crowds, giving commands and being obeyed, handlers of money and directors of accounts or calculations. Such natives, having a liberal and dissembling character, appear sometimes wicked and knavish, sometimes good and fine; they will be covetous of other people's goods and grasping, on account of which they will endure disturbances or lawsuits, debts, and notoriety among the crowd. But at times, carried along by success and trust in their business, they will receive benefits, and, deemed worthy of gifts and honors from greater persons and acquiring a generous bearing, they will benefit their own people and strangers; they will share in mysteries and in the affairs of others, and in other respects they will be curious and inventive, showing a simple manner.

土星、木星与水星形成格局时，使本命者有作为，成为管家、可信的人、群众的主持者，发令也被服从，是钱财的经手者、账目或计算的主管。这样的本命者性格宽大而善掩饰，时而显得邪恶狡猾，时而显得善良美好；他们觊觎他人的财物、贪得，因此会遭受扰乱或诉讼、债务以及在群众中的恶名。但有时凭着买卖上的成功与信用而被带起来，他们会得到好处，被大人物认为配得礼物与荣誉，具有慷慨的气度，使自家人与外人都受益；他们会参与秘仪和他人的事务，在其他方面好奇、善于发明，显出质朴的作风。

Saturn, Mars, and the Sun signify violent, alien, and dangerous affairs; for they make natives bold and given to grand undertakings in their business, wicked, godless, betrayers, insubordinate, haters of their own kin, separated from their own land and living among foreigners, coming into abuse and dangers, suffering falls from a height or from four-footed beasts, or fears of fire, toil-worn in their undertakings, not keeping what they acquire, covetous of other people's goods, providing for themselves from evil sources, unless the configuration happens to be military or athletic; and so it is toilsome, yet not without activity.

土星、火星与太阳主暴烈、异己与危险的事；因为它们使本命者大胆，在买卖上好做大事，邪恶、不敬神、背叛者、不服管束、憎恨亲族、离开本土而住在外邦人中间，遭受凌辱与危险，从高处或从四足牲畜上跌落，或怕火，在营谋上劳苦，守不住所获之物，觊觎他人财物，从坏的来源养活自己，除非这个格局正好属于军旅或竞技；那样它虽劳苦，却不是没有作为。

Saturn, Mars, and the Moon make natives reckless in the undertakings of their business and noble, but unsuccessful in their affairs and turned about amid adversities and violent affairs. For they become violent, lovers of solitude, wicked, rapacious, with the manner of a brigand, falling into defences or lawsuits, and getting a taste of confinements and accusations, unless the nativity happens to be fond of the wrestling-ground or fond of arms, so that through this holding the configuration of confinement may be fulfilled; some, then, becoming injured or afflicted with disease, will meet a violent end.

土星、火星与月亮使本命者在买卖的营谋上冒险而高贵，但在事务上不成功，在逆境与暴烈之事中辗转。因为他们变得暴烈、爱孤独、邪恶、贪婪掠夺、有强盗的作风，落入辩护或诉讼，尝到拘禁与控告的滋味，除非本命正好爱好角力场或爱好兵器，好让拘禁的格局借这种约束得到应验；于是有些人受伤或患病，会遭横死。

Saturn, Mars, and Venus are suitable at first for business, friendships, or transactions, bringing about benefits, glory, and introductions; but later they become troubled and involved in lawsuits on account of certain rivalries and betrayals, on account of which they incur accusations, endure enmities toward men and women, are turned toward shameful reproaches or adulteries, and suffer notoriety and public exposure. Some, then, give themselves heedlessly to unlawful and indiscriminate intercourse, and, becoming accomplices in or plotters of wickedness or poisoning, they will endure no ordinary fear.

土星、火星与金星起初适合买卖、友谊或交易，带来好处、荣耀与引荐；但后来因某些竞争与背叛而陷入困扰、卷入诉讼，因此招来控告，忍受与男人和女人的敌意，转向可耻的责难或通奸，遭受恶名与当众出丑。有些人随意投身于不法而不加分辨的交合，成为作恶或下毒的同谋或策划者，将忍受非同寻常的恐惧。

Saturn, Mars, and Mercury bring about wrongdoing and deceits, lawsuits and disturbances; turned about on account of writings or secret affairs, sureties or loans, natives endure no ordinary struggles and downfalls. Otherwise they make natives keen and intelligent in their business, passing through life in varied ways and ill spoken of by certain people on account of certain violent or unlawful deeds; sometimes, then, finding themselves amid toilsome or dangerous affairs and falling into want, they blame their own fortune and blaspheme against the gods, or become perjurers and godless. And if the planets fall unsuitably, they also cause accusations and confinements. But if they happen to be in productive places or in their own, natives who take up struggles on behalf of others will overcome most people, or, benefited by speech, calculation, or military service, they will increase their livelihood.

土星、火星与水星带来不义与欺骗、诉讼与扰乱；本命者因文书或隐秘之事、担保或借贷而辗转，忍受非同寻常的争斗与失势。另一方面，它们使本命者在买卖上敏锐而聪慧，以多样的方式度过一生，因某些暴烈或不法之事而被某些人说坏话；有时处在劳苦或危险的事中、陷入匮乏，他们就埋怨自己的命运、亵渎众神，或成为发假誓者与不敬神的人。如果诸星落得不适宜，它们也造成控告与拘禁。但如果它们正好在得力之位或在自己的位置，本命者为他人承担争斗时会胜过多数人，或者凭言辞、计算或军务得益，增加生计。

Saturn, Venus, and the Sun signify great introductions, honors, and business, and are causes of glory, prominence, and presidency of the crowd; but they are not lasting with respect to possessions and other things, and they turn natives toward reversals, dissolve friendships, bring about diminutions of livelihood, and public exposures or penalties on account of women, and betrayals of secret affairs; and they make natives unsettled and indiscriminate in their intercourse and unions.

土星、金星与太阳主盛大的引荐、荣誉与买卖，是荣耀、显要与主持群众的起因；但在财物与其他事上并不长久，它们使本命者转向反复，解散友谊，带来生计的减少，因女人而当众出丑或受罚，隐秘之事遭出卖；它们也使本命者在交合与结合上不安定、不加分辨。

Saturn, Venus, and the Moon bring reversals and instability of life, and above all as regards the place of the wife, the mother, and children. For they bring malice and ingratitude, and further rivalries and factions, separations, reproaches, public exposures, unlawful intercourse; but in business they make natives not without resources, inventive, and coming into acquisitions, benefited from the dead, yet not keeping what they gain, plotted against by many, or themselves accomplices in wickedness or poisoning, and advisers of women.

土星、金星与月亮带来生活的反复与不稳，尤其在妻子、母亲与子女之位上。因为它们带来恶意与忘恩，还有竞争与派系、分离、责难、当众出丑、不法的交合；但在买卖上它们使本命者不至匮乏、善于发明、进入获取，得死者之益，却守不住所得，被许多人谋害，或者自己成为作恶或下毒的同谋，成为女人的谋士。

Saturn, Venus, and Mercury make natives intelligent, thoughtful, and gifted and quick to succeed in the starting-points of business, but not persevering, letting their first undertakings grow cold and desiring others, of much learning, curious, versatile, skilled in medicine, delighting in novelty, change, and sojourning abroad. But if, while these are so placed, the configuration is afflicted, or Mars also regards it, natives fall into disturbances and lawsuits on account of poisonings, or women, or occasions arising from deaths; or, suffering injustice from women, they incur a diminution of livelihood and harmful charges. In general they will be insecure and grieved as regards the place of the wife, of children, and of slaves.

土星、金星与水星使本命者聪慧、深思、有天资，在买卖的起头上很快成功，却不能坚持，让最初的营谋冷下来，又想要别的，学识广博、好奇、多才多艺、精于医术，喜欢新奇、变化与客居异乡。但如果它们这样落位时格局受损，或火星也照看它，本命者就会因下毒、或女人、或由死亡而起的事端落入扰乱与诉讼；或者受女人亏待，招致生计的减少与有害的指控。总之，他们在妻子、子女与奴仆之位上会不稳固而忧伤。

Jupiter, the Sun, and the Moon make natives glorious, brilliant, widely known, presidents of public, civic, and royal affairs, fit to lead, fit for the command of armies, not subject to others, tyrants, but envied, ill spoken of, and betrayed by certain people, haters of their own kin, quick to repent, varied and unsettled in their judgments, haughty, thinking above themselves, and amid rises and falls, adorned with display in their lives, yet not persisting in their prosperity to the end, but tripping in certain matters, or even having a painful end.

木星、太阳与月亮使本命者荣耀、光彩、广为人知，成为公共、城邦与王室事务的主持者，宜于领导，宜于统率军队，不受人管，专横，但遭人嫉妒，被某些人说坏话、出卖，憎恨亲族，很快后悔，判断多变而不安定，高傲，自视过高，处在升降之中，生活中饰以排场，却不能把兴旺维持到底，而在某些事上跌倒，甚至有痛苦的结局。

Jupiter, Mars, and the Sun indicate natives troubled and exposed to danger, but rather hot and quick to succeed in the undertakings of their business and sharing in glory, military men fit to lead, presidents of public affairs, insecure because there follow envy from greater persons, threats, betrayals, plots of their own people, accusations. For some, raised up from a middling fortune by the advancement of greater persons, have been brought down in their livelihood.

木星、火星与太阳显示本命者困扰而易遭危险，但相当热烈，在买卖的营谋上很快成功，分享荣耀，是宜于领导的军人、公共事务的主持者，却不稳固，因为随之而来的有大人物的嫉妒、威胁、背叛、自家人的阴谋、控告。因为有些人凭大人物的提拔从中等境遇被抬举起来，又在生计上被拉了下来。

Jupiter, Mars, and the Moon make natives quick to succeed, bold, public, with many friends, coming into advancements and exalted from a small fortune and deemed worthy of trust, soldiers, athletes, glorious, fit to lead, presidents of crowds and places, sharing in honors and salaries or in priesthood, but falling into adversities and accusations, betrayed by their own people or by women, suffering diminution of what they have acquired, and later acquiring again from secret or unexpected affairs.

木星、火星与月亮使本命者很快成功、大胆、属于公众、朋友多，得到提拔，从微小的境遇被抬高，被认为配得信托，是军人、运动员、荣耀、宜于领导，群众与地方的主持者，分享荣誉与俸给或祭司之职，但落入逆境与控告，被自家人或女人出卖，所获之物遭减少，后来又从隐秘或意外之事重新获得。

Jupiter, Mars, and Mercury make natives active, hot, stirred up, sharing in salaries in public places or in military ranks, or conducting royal or civic business, but uneven in their lives and spenders of what they acquire, well-meaning and trustworthy stewards, readily correcting their mistakes and laying their own faults upon others, but ill spoken of and falling into adversities. Some, then, they make athletes, wearers of crowns, or even trainers of the body, of much learning, fond of travelling abroad, or providing for themselves in a foreign land, but missing the mark in their own affairs.

木星、火星与水星使本命者有作为、热烈、激动，在公共场所或军阶中分享俸给，或经办王室或城邦的事务，但生活起伏不齐，花掉所获之物，是心地好而可信的管家，乐于纠正自己的错误，又把自己的过失推给别人，但被人说坏话，落入逆境。有些人被它们造就为运动员、戴冠冕者，甚至身体的训练者，学识广博，爱好出外旅行，或在外邦养活自己，却在自己的事上落空。

Jupiter, Mars, and Venus make natives with many friends and fond of companionship, deemed worthy of introductions to greater persons and of benefits, coming into advancement, advanced by women; some, then, fit for high priesthood, wearers of crowns, athletes, or presidents of temples, serving the pleasures of crowds and from time to time living unsettled and uneven lives, but blameworthy and indiscriminate in their unions, enduring public exposures and betrayals, grieved as regards the place of children and of slaves, delighting in newer liaisons, and enduring separations from wives.

木星、火星与金星使本命者朋友多、爱结伴，配得与大人物的引荐与好处，得到提拔，由女人提携；所以有些人宜于大祭司之职，戴冠冕，是运动员或神庙的主持者，为群众的享乐服务，不时过着不安定、起伏不齐的生活，但在结合上该受指责、不加分辨，遭受当众出丑与背叛，在子女与奴仆之位上忧伤，喜欢较新的私情，忍受与妻子的分离。

Jupiter, Mercury, and the Sun make natives easily successful in the undertakings of their business and with many friends, deemed worthy of trusts, honors, and stewardships, of introductions to greater persons and of advancements, or raised up and adorned from a small fortune; but with respect to acquisitions not lasting and easily taken, or in want for certain periods, and doing many things secretly; yet not without a livelihood, but benefited from unexpected sources and by greater persons.

木星、水星与太阳使本命者在买卖的营谋上容易成功、朋友多，配得信托、荣誉与管家之职，配得与大人物的引荐与提拔，或从微小的境遇被抬举、装点；但在获取上不长久、容易被夺，或在某些时期匮乏，许多事暗中进行；却不至于没有生计，而从意外之处、由大人物得益。

Jupiter, Mercury, and the Moon make natives good, acquisitive, and quick to succeed in business, collectors of gifts, sharing in trusts, secretive, intelligent, rational, guardians of property and deposits, raised up by speech and calculation, lenders, tax-collectors, lessees, with many friends, widely known, fit for guardianships, administrators of affairs, generous; some, then, athletes, wearers of crowns, deemed worthy of honors, images, and statues. And if they happen to be in productive places, they make natives finders of treasures, and superintendents of shrines and temples; they will rebuild and plant, and, having adorned places, they will win ever-memorable fame.

木星、水星与月亮使本命者善良、能获取、在买卖上很快成功，收集礼物，分享信托，守密，聪慧，有理性，是财产与寄存之物的保管者，凭言辞与计算被抬举，是放贷者、收税者、承租人，朋友多，广为人知，宜于监护之职，是事务的管理者，慷慨；有些人是运动员、戴冠冕者，配得荣誉、画像与塑像。如果它们正好在得力之位，就使本命者成为发现宝藏的人、圣所与神庙的督管者；他们会重建与种植，装点各处，赢得永远值得记念的名声。

Jupiter, Mercury, and Venus are good, bringing about acquisition of livelihood and success in business; natives become intelligent, simple, generous, pleasant, fond of living with others, cheerful, sharing in education and music, clean, comely, deemed worthy of honor and glory, associating with greater persons and sharing in trusts and stewardships, adorned in their lives; being fond of rearing and fond of training, they become lords of slaves, rear some as their own children and do them good, and, being lovers of the gods, foreknow the future from the gods; but as regards the place of the wife and children they will be unsettled or grieved.

木星、水星与金星是好的，带来生计的获取与买卖的成功；本命者变得聪慧、质朴、慷慨、讨人喜欢、爱与人同住、开朗，分享教育与音乐，洁净、俊美，配得荣誉与荣耀，与大人物交往，分享信托与管家之职，生活中有所装点；他们爱养育、爱训练，成为奴仆的主人，把一些奴仆当作自己的孩子抚养、善待他们；他们爱神，从神那里预知未来；但在妻子与子女之位上会不安定或忧伤。

Jupiter, Venus, and the Sun will make natives splendid in display and glorious, but petty and uneven in their judgments, haughty, sometimes ready to provide and beneficent, yet quick to repent, sometimes elated by the glory and acquisitions of others and raised up from a small fortune. They also become high priests, wearers of crowns, fit for office, fit to lead, presidents of public affairs and leaders of crowds; they are deemed worthy of honors or gifts and are adorned in their lives, but in their unions they will be lawless or blameworthy. And if they happen to be oriental or in productive places, they will also have joy in wife and children.

木星、金星与太阳会使本命者排场光彩而荣耀，但在判断上琐碎而起伏不齐，高傲，有时乐于供给、乐善好施，却很快后悔，有时因别人的荣耀与获取而得意，从微小的境遇被抬举。他们也成为大祭司、戴冠冕者、宜于做官、宜于领导、公共事务的主持者与群众的领袖；他们配得荣誉或礼物，生活中有所装点，但在结合上不守法或该受指责。如果它们正好东出或在得力之位，他们也会在妻子与子女上得到喜乐。

Jupiter, Venus, and the Moon make natives active and glorious, fit for high priesthood, wearers of crowns, presidents of shrines and temples, bountiful, lovers of glory, serving the pleasures of crowds, of cities or of lands, taking on trusts, deemed worthy of honors, acclaimed, and envied by their own people and by friends, enduring enmities and rivalries, but as regards the place of the wife and of intimacy unsettled and contentious, living with jealousies, separations, and constraint, and in suspense; sometimes, then, they unite with kinswomen, and not even so do they keep their cohabitation free from disturbance; they come into partnerships; as for the substance of their livelihood, they will be splendid in display, filled not so much with truth as with illusion.

木星、金星与月亮使本命者有作为、荣耀，宜于大祭司之职，戴冠冕，是圣所与神庙的主持者，慷慨，爱荣耀，为城邦或地方群众的享乐服务，承担信托，配得荣誉，受人称颂，被自家人与朋友嫉妒，忍受敌意与竞争，但在妻子与亲密之位上不安定、好争吵，生活在嫉妒、分离与约束之中，悬而未决；有时他们与女亲属结合，即便如此也不能使同居免于扰乱；他们进入合伙关系；至于生计的根基，他们排场光彩，充满的与其说是真实，不如说是幻象。

Venus, the Sun, and the Moon make natives glorious and active, amid display, but malicious and blameworthy, slandered by most people and envied by greater persons and by friends, coming into advancement and possession and exalted by fortune, but uneven as regards wife and children; otherwise fond of their friends, living in sojourns abroad and prospering in a foreign land.

金星、太阳与月亮使本命者荣耀而有作为，处在排场之中，但心存恶意、该受指责，被多数人诽谤，被大人物与朋友嫉妒，得到提拔与拥有，被命运抬高，但在妻子与子女上起伏不齐；另一方面他们爱朋友，生活在客居异乡之中，在外邦兴旺。

Venus, Mars, and the Moon make natives neither without resources nor inactive, but varied and unsettled in their judgments, great-souled, spending without discernment and not bringing their affairs to an end, given to grand undertakings, contemptuous, wanderers, bold, public, soldiers, indiscriminate in their use of men and of women, ill spoken of and coming into abuse and lawsuits, turning friendships into enmities through the provocations of knaves, and tripping in their livelihood.

金星、火星与月亮使本命者既不匮乏也不闲散，却判断多变而不安定，心胸宏大，花钱不加分辨，不能把事情办到底，好做大事，轻蔑他人，漂泊，大胆，属于公众，是军人，对男人和女人的利用不加分辨，被人说坏话，遭受凌辱与诉讼，因无赖的挑拨把友谊变成敌意，在生计上跌倒。

Mercury, the Sun, and the Moon make natives dignified, clean, good at dissembling, stewards, sharing in trusts or ranks, beneficent, partakers in mysteries, accomplishers of affairs, possessing a very great display of substance; they also become bodyguards, public informers, men set over money, writings, and accounts; and the speech of such natives will prevail for counsel or for teaching.

水星、太阳与月亮使本命者庄重、洁净、善于掩饰，是管家，分享信托或官阶，乐善好施，参与秘仪，是事务的完成者，拥有极其盛大的财物排场；他们也成为卫士、公共告发者、掌管钱财、文书与账目的人；这样的本命者的言辞，在出谋或教导上都会占上风。

Mercury, the Sun, and Venus make natives of much learning, of much experience, good, leaders in arts and sciences and deemed worthy of trusts and ranks, quick to repent in what they undertake, suffering reversals from time to time, much on the move or delighting in innovations in their business, with many friends, widely known, coming into advancement through greater persons and adorned in livelihood and glory, but blameworthy.

水星、太阳与金星使本命者学识广博、阅历丰富、善良，是技艺与学问的领袖，配得信托与官阶，对所营谋的事很快后悔，不时遭受反复，常常走动，或在买卖上喜欢革新，朋友多，广为人知，借大人物得到提拔，在生计与荣耀上有所装点，却该受指责。

Mercury, the Moon, and Venus make natives good, easy to live with, simple, generous, fond of laughter, civic-minded, sharing in education or in rhythms, inventive, of much experience, orderly, clean, gifted, privy to secret affairs, ready to serve, emulated and envied, but uneven in their lives and indiscriminate in their intercourse with women and men, yet well-off and given to collecting.

水星、月亮与金星使本命者善良、容易相处、质朴、慷慨、爱笑、有公民心，分享教育或节奏之学，善于发明，阅历丰富，有条理，洁净，有天资，知晓隐秘之事，乐于效劳，被人效仿也被人嫉妒，但生活起伏不齐，与女人和男人交合时不加分辨，却富足而善于聚敛。

Mercury, Mars, and Venus, when configured together, bring about benefits, glory, and business, and make natives quick to succeed and good stewards in giving and receiving and in other undertakings, but knavish and of much experience, raised up through letters or through training; blameworthy, spending much, generous, rolled about amid sureties and loans and doing wrong, embezzlers of other people's money, advisers who lie charmingly, well-off yet envious, quick to repent in what they undertake.

水星、火星与金星形成格局时，带来好处、荣耀与买卖，使本命者很快成功，在给予、收取与其他营谋上是好管家，但狡猾而阅历丰富，借文字或训练被抬举；该受指责，花费多，慷慨，在担保与借贷中辗转，做不义之事，侵吞他人的钱财，是说谎说得动听的谋士，富足却嫉妒，对所营谋的事很快后悔。

Mars, the Sun, and the Moon make natives bold, manly, daring, active; for they become athletes and soldiers, fit for office and fit to lead, providing for themselves from violent and envied affairs and from toilsome arts or hard labor, but turned about amid adversities and dangerous affairs, and they come into the enmities of greater persons and into charges, unless benefics, configured with them, keep the substance of the nativity from being overthrown.

火星、太阳与月亮使本命者大胆、有男子气、敢作敢为、有作为；因为他们成为运动员与军人，宜于做官、宜于领导，从暴烈而遭嫉妒之事、从劳苦的技艺或繁重的劳作中养活自己，但在逆境与危险之事中辗转，招致大人物的敌意与指控，除非吉星与它们形成格局，使本命的根基不被推翻。

Mars, the Sun, and Venus make natives with many friends and widely known, deemed worthy of introductions and honors, well-off, fond of companionship, blameworthy, and much talked about, but not persevering in their friendships and unsettled in their business, desiring many things, spending much, injurers of women, easily abused, turned about amid adversities and enmities through certain failures of judgment in their reasoning.

火星、太阳与金星使本命者朋友多、广为人知，配得引荐与荣誉，富足，爱结伴，该受指责，常被人议论，但在友谊上不能坚持，在买卖上不安定，想要许多东西，花费多，伤害女人，容易受凌辱，由于推理上某些判断的失误而在逆境与敌意中辗转。

Mars, the Sun, and Mercury make natives of much experience, inventive in the starting-points of business, but full of cares and unsuccessful in the desires of their reasonings, yet unexpectedly coming out on top; hence such natives become uneven in their judgments, daring, active, quick-tempered, rushing against their enemies, but they repent after bringing harmful charges or damages upon themselves; and sometimes, taking on a cowardly and contemptible character, they become self-controlled and dissembling and inferior to those to whom they ought not to be, and, living unevenly for most of their lives and coming under the hand of others, they will blame their own fortune.

火星、太阳与水星使本命者阅历丰富，在买卖的起头上善于发明，但多忧虑，在推理所求的事上不成功，却出人意料地占得上风；所以这样的本命者判断起伏不齐、敢作敢为、有作为、易怒，冲向敌人，但在给自己招来有害的指控或损失之后又后悔；有时他们带上怯懦可鄙的性格，变得自制而掩饰，屈居于本不该屈居的人之下，大半生活得起伏不齐、落入他人之手，会埋怨自己的命运。

Mars, the Moon, and Mercury make natives nimble, inventive, readily setting about their business and much on the move, wanting to act with speed, curious, initiates into hidden things and privy to secret affairs, injurers, violent, insubordinate, covetous of other people's goods, falling into charges and damages, lawsuits and dangerous affairs, enduring disturbances on account of writings and money matters, yet well-off and spending much, but missing the mark in their livelihood.

火星、月亮与水星使本命者敏捷、善于发明，容易着手买卖、常常走动，想要迅速行事，好奇，隐秘之事的入门者，知晓秘密之事，伤人，暴烈，不服管束，觊觎他人财物，落入指控与损失、诉讼与危险之事，因文书与钱财之事遭受扰乱，却富足、花费多，只是在生计上落空。

These things we have set out as single-form and general distinctions. But when other blendings are mixed in as well, whether by presence or by joint testimony, the power of the affairs too will be altered according to the nature of the planet and the judgment of its place. For I did not wish to write about the blendings at length and in many parts, since the ancients too have set out matters concerning them beforehand; the method, then, will be judged easy to survey, at least for those who have intelligence, from the natural operation of each planet and sign, which is set out in this treatise. Hence it will be necessary to compare the placement of the planet, how it is configured: whether it is angular, or lord of the oriental place, of the Lot, of the Ascendant, or of the triplicity; and likewise the signs in which they happen to be, whether their own or of their own sect, and by which planets they receive testimony; for in this way the effects are declared to be secure. But if they have fallen into inoperative places and alien signs and are contrary to the sect, both the native's business and his fortune will be less.

这些我们是作为单一形式的、总体的区分而列出的。但当其他的混合也掺进来，无论借着同在还是借着共同见证，事务的力量也会按行星的本性与对其位置的判断而改变。因为我不愿冗长而分多部分地写诸般混合，因为古人也已先行列出了关于它们的事；所以，至少对有心智的人来说，这方法会被判为容易综览，凭的是本书中列出的每颗行星与每个星座的自然作用。所以必须比较行星的位置，看它如何形成格局：是否居角，或是否为东方之位、福点、上升点或三方的主；同样也要看它们所在的星座，是它们自己的还是本方的，又受哪些行星见证；因为这样效验才被宣告为稳固的。但如果它们落在不得力的位置与异己的星座、又与当令之方相反，本命者的事业与运气都会较小。
