have dominion in such Quarters of the world and over such part of mans life c. in directions 1 Cor. 8.5 6. There are many are called Lords but to us is but one Lord Jesus Christ opposing Christ worshipped to these Demons the Heathens then worshipped and eate and dranke the bloud and flesh sacrificed to them 1 Cor. 10.21 8.10 Which was done in the Temple built to ♃ c. In which was an Idol where he was supposed to be in on earth as in heaven in his starre which meat so sacrificed sold by their Priests to such as sold meat in the shambles was an offence to the Saints It is superstition and condemned of God to name the names of these how then to name the day from them and to give the Rule of its houres to them Why ☽ on the first day must have the first houre at ☉ rising and begin the government of the day when she is in opposition to us and not seen by us appeares not to me but to confirme a Heathenish observation of the day to the Moone and the Doctrine of Diana and the preserving of her Magnificence for as God had a day of rest to his service so the Demons had theirs on which men devoted to them did visit their Temples and did sacrifice to them on their Altars Some Astrologers have said the seventh day was observed by the Jewes in honour of ♄ and that we sin not keeping it To bring the people thereunto they did no other but hold out to them how they were preserved by them and how their punishments came from them and good was conveyed by their Starres to them hourly daily yearly as in the Doctrine of Astrologie is set forth Which was the tye they had to binde them to their worship and service Acts 19.27 Asia and all the world worshipped Diana the ☽ sure the Nations that call the second day ☽ day did worship the ☽ on that day in time of these names 6. To hold out this distinction of the god Demon and his Starre as distinct by the Scripture see Acts 7.43 And ye retooke up the Tabernacle of Moloch and the starre of your god Remphan Moloch was the Demon Saturn whose starre was Remphan that is the highest of the Planets according to the Arabian Dialect so that there was the god the Tabernacle and the Starre as distinct things the worship was set up the Tabernacle the influence ascribed to the Starre as the meanes thereof and the worship given to the Demon 7. Whereas the Scripture says I would not ye should have fellowship with Demons 1 Cor. 10.20 Now where one acknowledging the Demons in their Doctrine in their dayes in their rule in their Characters in their names in the starres as theirs be not a having communion with them or no It s good to consider Levit. 18.3 and to speake and foretell by their rules Deut. 7.4 8. In the Conjunctions Retrogradations and several aspects of the Planets in the doctrine of Demons is held out what men acted as they say by them would produce among themselves as if old men melancholy envious c. having the disposition of ♄ stirred up in them according to the emergencies of the times so men borne under Mars having a spirit of warre and bloud in them are by the influence of Mars stirred up to warre and revenge So those borne under Venus are as by a spirit of venery lead to dalliance delights neatnesse and Mercury to the god Demons a man-servant to the goddesses a female who as their servant is nimble witted to councel the worst and please the best being of a false and treacherous spirit so of the Men of the Moone the Sunne c. Now the difference if it be about Dominion with the ☉ about women with Venus or Priesthood with ♃ and Saturne be of the one side and those acted by him and ♂ on the other side with those acted by him the Judgement will be what the event thereof is say they if ☿ have a hand in the business unlesse ♃ by a △ prove a Moderator if it be but in a square it s but as it were say they a falling out and not as in an ☍ or an open defiance to which in agreements they compare the ⚹ and △ the signes where fixed or moveable helping in the Judgement in the undertaking whereof 1. There is not onely scientia the art and rules therein 2. But there is required in the man a spirit inclined to and acquainted with or acted by the Influence of Mercury and ♃ in a prophetick way which differs from the spirit of divination the one immediatly the other mediately by rules predicting things as in that axiom a te a scientia the knowledge without this spirit is nothing 3. This spirit is as much to inquire into the state of affayres in the world below as well as in the configurations of the heavenly bodyes above for it is confest that grounds of this art doe depend upon experiences these things would require a volume but my intent is onely in a generall way how they are opposed and what opposed and what God allowes of in the Starres sayes Mirandula Ptolemeum plus conceptui quam geniturae tribuisse 1. The seven Planets are Gods creatures called by Jude {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} erring Starres because of the irregularity of their motion sometimes direct then stationary then retrograde opposing conjoyning one with another as friends and foes 2. By these Planets power and operations the change of seasons and ayres and weathers are produced usually called by the Astrologers in receptions oppositions and other configurations apertio portarum but in the word they are indeed said to be the powers of the ayre Ephes. 2.2 Signifying that the heat the cold the moyst the wet the dry the winde the snow the hayle and exhalations are produced or wrought by these in the ayre as heat in the rising of the great Dog-starre 3. By the ayre these powers worke on the earth and on man composed of the Elements themselves were first made of as by a tacture the Starres applying themselves by the ayre to the severall bodyes of men as they agree with or are contrary to them to sicknesse or health 1. Hence some are sayd to be {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} {non-Roman} Moone struck 2. Others are sayd c. 4. The soules being ex traduce their Influence extends to incite some joy hate feare wrath as the temper of the body is first wrought on 5. And because man consists of a spirit immediately given of God and not made of the matter other Elementary bodyes were of remaines unwrought upon by them as being above them and not to be corrupted by them 6. To all these Satan he adds his operation Ephes. 2.2 who is the Prince or chiefe of the powers of the ayre who workes with them or by them 7. On the children of disobedience he thereby
