Of the Astrological Judgment of the Year 1699. THis year we have the great Conjunction 1603 comes by direction to the Opposition of Mercury and the Sun to the Opposition of Mars and Venus to the Opposition of Mars and the Moon to the body of Mars also and we have the New Star 1604 comes by direction to the Quartile both of the Sun and Venus besides the effects of the last Conjunction of Saturn and Mars last year and the Opposition of Saturn and Mars this year Besides we have no less than 4 Eclipses this Year The first will be an Eclypse of the Moon on March the 5th day at 8 of the Clock at Night in 26 degrees of Scorpio visible The second will be of the Sun on March the 21st day about 8 of the Clock in the morning in 11 degrees of Aries The third will be an Eclypse of the Moon on August the 30th near Noon in 17 degrees of Pisces The last will be an Eclypse of the Sun on the 13th day of September about 11 of the Clock in the Morning in 1 degree of Libra and much about the time of this Eclypse there happens the Opposition of Saturn and Mars which will aggravate the effects thereof Great will be the Action of this Year those Villanies that have for many years been kept as a Secret will now be made known to every one All Nations will be troubled with Rumors of Wars every Religion preparing Armies Traffick prohibited both by Land and Sea the Main Sea shall hugely swell with mighty Tempests so that the Sea banks in many places shall overflow their accustomed bounds Inundations universally every where now Holland look to thy self terrible Sea Fights will be this Year occasioning the water to look more red than the Red Sea the water turned to Blood War and Blood shed over all the Earth one Nation shall send so many Men to the Wars that it for a time shall seem to be desolate of Men in the Eastern part of the World a whole Army shall be destroyed by Fire from Heaven with their Wealth and Treasure There shall also be a great drought and want of Water and the Earth shall be so parched that there will be no food for Cartle Great Plagues and War shall cover the whole face of the Earth and so destroy Mankind that there will not be sufficient Labourers to get in Harvest and the Vermin shall so destroy the Fruit on Trees that all be barren a general Famine and Dearth of Corn will overspred most Nations of Europe so that Thousands shall starve for want of Bread yet at the last we have a Sextile of Saturn and Jupiter each of them being in their own House Now shall one appear suddenly a great Conquerour the World filled with the fame of this Man who shall all of a sudden give Peace to all Europe Oh!

Of the effects of the New Star Anno 1604. ANno 1604 about the beginning of October this Star was observed first to appear in the Heavens in or near 17 degrees of Sagitarius having of near 2 degrees of North Latitude and as to its Magnitude Ricciolus and others say it was bigger then Jupiter or Venus according to its apparent Diameter and visible quantity it is agreed by all Astronomers in those days that the Apparent Magnitude was more than any of the Fixed Stars and by reason of its having no sensible Paralax by the consent of all Astronomers shews it to be situated among the Fixed Stars far above the Planetary Orbs and had no motion at all in longitude and latitude as the Planets and other wandring Comes usually have In Form it was exactly round casting no Hair or Tail constantly to one place but more like to the Order and Apparent Custom of the other Fixed Stars it appeared with a most clear twinkling and shooting of Beams on every side and that with such glistering and sudden brandishing as hath not been usually seen or observed to be in the Heavens among the Stars the Colour was very variable like to a many Angled Diamond by which turning the Sun Beams upon the eyes of the Beholders will reflect with a variable brightness so from a bright yellow anon it became croceal and in a moment like a Purple and reddish and many times it did appear white and with a most pure twinkling light It s continuance was above a Year even till the Moneth of February 1605 6 and constantly in the same part of the Heavens as to its longitude in the Ecliptick and it had its first Appearance near the time of the Conjunction of Saturn and Mars as may be seen by the Figure of the Full Moon preceeding 1604 September 27 day at 14 h. 22 m. P. M. ☽ a ☍ ☉ ad ⚹ ♃ E ♂ The Places of the Planets ex Ephem Orig. at the Lunation preceeding the first Appearance of this Star This Star appeared visible near five Hendred days therefore it will be five Hundred years before the full effects of this New Star be fulfilled It is here needless to trouble my self or Reader with the various Opinions of the Learned about the Matter and Generation of Comets or New Stars but as to its place it being so near the place of the Great Conjunction and the place of the Conjunction of Saturn and Mars the Year follow that also being near the great Conjunction from whence we may learn that there is extraordinary events that must ensue from this last return of the Superiours into the Fiery Trigon from its magnitude distance stability c. is the greatness quality and duration of the effects declared and by its habit to the Sun and the direction the time thereof in general But seeing that this New Star was occidental of the Sun and so appeared not till after Sun-set and by the Doctrine of Ptolomy the effects thereof must not be expected to be manifested so-suddenly to the World as if it had Rise before the Sun but as the Sun did approach nearer and nearer and so by degrees and for some time did obscure the Light of the Star so will the effects be obscured or retarded for a time or till excited by subsequent Configurations yet so as it must operate with the Conjunction because it was so near the Ascendant thereof that is near the place thereof the Conjunction it self was oriental of the Sun and so might denote some sudden Changes to happen in the World and after Saturn and Jupiter were separated one from the other and were about making their several Conjunctions with Mars then did this Star appear occidental near to the place of the great Conjunction denoting at length and even before the effects of this Conjunction are compleated must there be some eminent and more than ordinary Changes to happen to the World yet very little hitherto hath been taught by the Ancients concerning the effects of these or such like Prodigies of this Nature so that we cannot attain so exactly to the particular events only this we may conclude that extraordinary Causes will have extraordinary Effects and that from Astrological Principles and Grounds of Nature Spineus saith that about that part of Heaven in which a Mock-Star appeareth shall a Man arise which in shew shall resemble Gold And Cardanus tell us Segm. 2. Aph. 204. Comets appearing in the East do signifie the Birth of a. Great Man who shall be a Maker or Giver of Laws and in Segm. 3. Aph. 117. immoveable Comets do signifie Seditions and being in the Fiery Trigon it excites to Wars Commotions and Conflagrations to happen in the World the rather because this Mock-Star was of a Mars-like colour Yet seeing at length it appeared of a more bright or jovial colour Spineus will have it that after there hath been such Wars Sedition burnings of Towns and Citys and great slaughters of Mankind then it should signifie the Kingdom of Peace Any one may conclude with him that there will be great Changes of Laws and Customs destruction to divers States and Monarchies beyond what could be signified from the Great Conjunction for else why was it visible so near the place and time thereof That which is worth taking notice of is that during the appearance of this New Star all the Planets came in Conjunction with it Besides it was not only elevated above the Planets in the Conjunction both in respect of its Latitude from the Eccliptick and Situation or distance from the Earth but also exceeded all the Planets in Magnitude and Light And considering that all the Planets except the Moon are under the Earth and Saturn Jupiter and Mars and the New-star are in the Fourth House without doubt it will be long before the effects will shew themselves fully to the World and because the first Appearance thereof was so near the Conjunction of Saturn and Jupiter with Mars and all nigh the place of the great Conjunction and the Conjunction of Saturn and Jupiter 1663. Therefore the effects thereof have in abundant measure shewed themselves this last 20 Years and shall shew themselves more and more during the Conjunction of Saturn and Jupiter in the Fiery Trigon and for the better understanding when the effects will be most manifest I have directed the New Star and all the Planets in the Figure of the Full Moon preceeding the Appearance thereof which may give satisfaction to any one that please to consider them to the Year 1702 as for Example In the year
