At Land however the Congress of the Planets in Pisces signifies great Meetings and Consults of Eminent Persons to adjust and carry on weighty Affairs pointing but little favourable to France for there we still find Saturn afflicting the Horoscope of the French King which may give him trouble by Domestick Jars through the Discontents of his People Oppressed with Taxes and other Grievances which they have long groaned under without Redress by which means in all likelyhood he may find work enough to defend himself and his Countries without being capable of making Inroads into his Neighbours to give Europe the dismal Marks of his Implacable Fury by laying Waste with Fire c. The Season coming on and growing ripe for Action the Armies will begin to move with Courage and Resolution for Mars will be in the Mundane Trine to Jupiter applying to a Zodiacal Trine which promises favourably to the Low Countries and a happy success to the Confederates in general About this time we may expect to hear considerable News relating to the Affairs of Ireland whilst things go on prosperously in England however That Country seems much Impoverished by the Spoil and Ravagement that has been made which obliges many that stood out to submit themselves to the Government of England and strong Places will in all probability Surrender Skirmishes frequently hapning in which Bloud is shed c. And now the Sun and Moon being both in the Parallel with Saturn and the Lord of the Tenth and Eleventh Houses though some Contests may arise they will have a favourable Issue and an Increase of Trade is promised by Sea and Land especially Prosperity to the City of London though Merchants must expect some Losses by Pirates and Privateers as well as by Storms for the Sun and Moon are also at the same time in the Mundane Parallel with Jupiter a most auspicious Planet Saturn in the beginning of July is Stationary in the French King's Horoscope and in Square to his Mid-Heaven denoting that he will find disappointments in his Purposes of troubling Europe and see his Armies Unsuccessful his Grandeur perhaps daily declining for the Sun will soon after touch the Square of Saturn and Mars in Square to that Planet but the Northern Climates are in a happy way of seeing good days and enjoying their Wishes About this time we may happen to hear great News from Sea The Trine of the Sun and Jupiter is ever held to give Honour to the Law and those that profess it and Jupiter Stationary promises to advance the Honour of England and that great Negotiations will be on foot and Ambassadors from Foraign Countries may be expected to the advancement of her Interest and Grandeur through the farther Alliances and Establishment of Trade Now Mercury appears employed to dispose the minds of Great ones to Weighty Affairs and Intelligence and Correspondencies Amicably to be held and herein it may be very considerable for as much as he is not Angular but in Cancer which is a Tropical Sign in the Angle of War and Contention with considerable Negotiations attending and towards the latter end of August we may expect some Diseases to be Rife but nothing extrordinary relating to any considerable Mortality And France in the ensuing Month is threatned with some more than ordinary Disaster perhaps an Inroad by the Confederate Armies or some Insurrection of the People who have so long groaned under the Yoak of Opression for Saturn is exactly in the Horoscope of that King In the mean while Jupiter is favourable to England and we hear of Success abroad some Storms may be expected about this time with considerable Robberies even in the face of the Sun though the Robbers being Detected may be brought to a late Repentance There being five Lunations in the succeeding Month and many of them in Libra a Cardinal Sign as also a Conjunction of the Sun and Mars near Virgo in Libra they denote violent Motions and some considerable Encounters beyond the Seas and particularly in some parts of Germany and Flanders by which we may expect good Success Mercury likewise joyns twice this Month with Saturn in Scorpio which threaten the French Policies with Discovery and little or no Success The Season now being far advanced Action begins to cease and Armies to retire into Winter Quarters leaving many strong places Garisoned to secure what has been gained c. And the Sun in November being in Conjunction with Saturn and the Sun and Mercury and Mars and Mercury in Scorpio which denote the French Affairs in no very good Condition and the Councils of that Monarch disturbed and disorder'd Division and Distraction reigning by which Advantage may accrue to his Enemies Many various Discourses will be broached about this time and several Men's Minds fill'd Notions and Fancies though perhaps to little or no purpose and
