of Geomancy, 3 Now we proceed to declare with what Planets thefe Figures are diftributed; for hereuponall-the propriety and nacure of Figures, and che judgement of che whole Art dependeth: Therefore the greater and Jéffer Fortune are a(cribed to the Sun;‘but the firf or greater Fortune ig when the Sunis diurnal, and pofited in his digiities; che other,or Jeffer Fortune, is when the Sunis no&turnall, or placed in leffe dignities. Via, and Po- pulus(thatis, the Way, and People) are referred co the Moon; the firftfrom her beginning and encreafing , the (econd from fier full light and quarter‘decreafing. Acquifitio, aud Letitia (which is Gain, Profit; Joy and Gladnef)areé of Fupiter : But the firft hath Fupiter the greater Fortune , the fecoud the leffe, but wichout detriment. Puella & Amiffioare of Venus ; the firlt fortunate,the other (as it were) retrograde, or combult. Con- jencio 8 Albus are both Figures of Mercury, 8¢ are both good; bute the-firft che more Fortunate. Per SehRabew are Figures aferibed to Mars ; the firft whereof hath Mags benevolent, the fecond malevolent. Carcer & Trijtitza ave both Figures of Sa- turn, & both evil ; bue che firft of the greater detriment. Fhe ‘Dragons head and Dragons tayl do follow their own natures. Angl the(e are che infallible comparifons of the Figures, and from thefe we may eafily difcern the equality oftheir fignes ; therefore the greater and leffer Fortunes have thefigne of Leo, which is the Honfe of the Sun: Via & Populus have the figne of Cancer,which is the Houfe of the Moon: Acqwifitio hath far his figne Pifces; & Letitia Sagittary,which are both the Houfes of Fupiter : Puella hathehe figneof Taurw,and Amiffiio of Libra, which are the Houfes of Venus : Conjunéiio hath for its figne Virgo,8« Albus che figne Gemini,the Houfes of Mercury : Puella and Rubews have for their figne Scorpio, the Houle of -AZars: Carcer hath the figne Capricorn,& Triftitia ~Aquary the Hou- fes of Saturn : The Dragons head and tail are thus divided,the head to Capricorn, and the Dragons tailadhereth to Scorpio ; and from hence’ you may eafily-@beain the Triplicities of thele fignes,after che manner of the Triplicities of the fignes of che Lodiack : Puer therefore,both F ortumes, & Letitia, do govern the fiery Triplicity ; Pxcls,Conjunftio, Carcer,and che Dragons Cc head,

But if any willconftituce chefe.

And this way is rather to be obferved then che fir(t which we have fet forth beeaufe it ts conftituted accor- * ding to the Rule andmanner of the fignes. | This order isalfo far more true and rational then that which vulgarly is ufed) which is defcribed after this manner: of the Fiery Triplicicy are, Cauda, Fortuna minor, Amijie, and Rybe- we: of the Airy Triplicity are , Acquifitio Letitia, Puer 5 and Conjungio : of the watry Triplicicy ares Populus, Viay Albus ‘puella: And Capue, Fortuna major, Carcer, and Triftitia, ave of che earthly Friplicity. | | Fhey do likewife. diftribute thefe figures to the twelve fignes of the Zodiack; after this manner ; Acquifitio is given to Aries; Fortuna,both major and minor to Tamrus ; Latitiato the figne Gemini 5 Puellaand Rubew toCancer ; Albus is alligned to Leo , Via. to Virgo ; the Dragons head , and Conjunétio to Libra ; puer is fubmicted to Scorpio; Triftitia and Amiffio are allignedto Sagittary; the Dragonstail to Capricorn 5 Populus to Aguarius ; and Carcer is afligned to the figne Pifces, And now we come to {peak of che manner of projecting or fetting down thefe figures which is thus; that we fet down the | petite according to their courfe in four lines..~ from che righe and coward che left,8¢ this in four courfes.: There will chere- fore refyle unto us four Figures made in four feveral lines, ac- eording tothe evea or uneven masking every. feveral line; which four Fignres are wont to be called Matres: which do: bringforch the relt, filling up and compleating the whole Fi- get . ; gure:

Of thefe four AZztres are alfo produced four other fecons dary Figures, which they call Filies or furceedents, which are gathered cogether after his manner, that is to fay, by making the four Matres accosding to their order , placing them b courfe one ofter another * ¥* ; then that which hall refule oue of every line, maketh the Figure of Filie, the order whereof is by defcending from the fuperior points through both medie wms co the loweft : as inthis example.

word, Now -thisare is chus perfected. and brought to pats : firft, we are to take heed of placing che vowels of the letcers , which are found by the calcutation of che celeftial figure ,-to’ finde chenames of the (pirits of the fecond order, Prefidents and Governours. And chisin the good fpirits, is chus broughe to effect, by confidering che ftars which do confticute and make the letters, and by placing them according to their order: firftlet the degree of the eleventh Houle be fubltrated from the degree of that ftar which is firftin order; and chat which remaineth thereof, let ic be projeCted from the degree ofthe afcendant ; and where that number endeth, there is pare of the vowel of thefirftletter: begin theréfore to calculate the vowels of chefe letters, according to'their number and or- der 5 and the vowel which fallech inthe place of the far, which is the firft in order, the (ame vowel is attributed co the firft letter.. Then afterwards thou fhale finde-the pare of the fecond letter, by fubftrating the degree of a ftar,which is che fecond in order from the firft ftar ; anterhat which remaineth, caft from the afcendane. And this ts che pare from which chou thale begin the calculation of che vowels; and that vowel which fallech upon che fecond ftar , the fame is the vowel of che fecond letter; and fo confequently maift thou fearch out che vowels of the following lettersalwayes , by fubftracting the degreeof the following ftar, from che degree of the ftar next preceding and going before. And fvalfo all calculations and numerations in che names of che'good fpirits, ought to be made according to the fucceffion of the fignes. And incalcu- lacing the names of the evil {piries, where in the names of the good fpirits is taken the degree of the eleventh Houfe, in chefe ought to be taken the degree of the twelfth Houle. And all numerations and calculations may be made with the {ucceffion of the fignes , by taking the beginning from the degree of the tenth Houfe. if
But in all extra@tions by tables the vowels are placed after another maner. In the firft place therefore is taken the certain number of letters making the name it (elfe, and is‘thus num- bred from the beginning of the columne of the firf letter: or
4 Of Ocenlt Philofophy, or Wheretipon the name is extraéted 3 and the letter on which’ this number fallech , isreferred tothe firft letter of the name, extratted by taking che diflance of the one from the other, ac- cording to the order of the Alphabet. But the number of that diftance is projected from the beginning of his columue; and where i¢ endeth, there is part of the firft vowel’ frony. thence therefore thou fhalt calculate the Vowels themfelves, in their own number and order, in che fame column ; and the
vowel which fhall fall upon the firft leceer of a name; the fame
fhalil be attributed to that name. “Now chou fhale finde the following vowels, by taking the diftance from the precedent vowel to the following : and fo confequently according to the: fucceflion of the Alphabee. And the’number of chat diftance is to be numbred from che beginning of his own column’; and where he fhall ceafe, chereis the part of the vowel fought after. From thence therefore muft you calculate ‘the vowels, as we . have abovelaid; and thofe vowels which fhall fall upon their — own letters , areto be attributed unto chem: if therefore any vowel fhall happen to fall upon’a vowel, the former muft give place to che lateer : and this you are to underftnd only of the good fpiries. Inthe evil alfo you may proceed: in the fame. way ; except only, chat you make the numerations after a, contrary and backward order , contrary to the fuc- ceflion of the Alphabet, and contrary to the order of the columnes (that isto fay) inafcendmg. © °° © a The name of good Angels’, and of everyman, which we have taught how to findeout, in our chird“Book of Occur

Oftentimes alfo we confticute Pentacles , by making the re-

drawing aboutita fingle or doubleCircle,and by writing there. in (ome holy verficle competent and befitting thisname,or from which that name is extraéted. And chisis the way of making the Pentacles, according to their feveral diftin& forms and fa- fhions; which we may as we pleafe cicher multiply or commix together by courfe among themfelves, to work the greater effi- cacie, and extention and enlargement of force and vertae. As,.if a deprecation fhould be made for the overthrow and deftrudtion of onesenemies, then we are to minde and call to remembrance how God deftroyed the whole face of the earth in. the deluge of waters; and the deftru&tion of Sodom’ and Gomorrba, by-raining down fire and brimftone 3 likewife, how God overthrew Pharacb and his hoft in the Red-Sea, andto call co minde tf any other maledi@ion or curfe be found in holy Writ. And thus in things of the like fore. So likewife in deprecating and praying againft perils and dangers of waters, we oughe to-call to remembrance the faving of ‘Noah in the deluge of waters, the pafling of the children of Irael thorow the Red-Sea ; and alfo we are'to minde how Chrift walked up- on the waters,and faved the thipin danger to be caft away wich the tempeft; andhowhecommanded'the windes and the waves, and they obeyed him 3 atid alfo, that he drew Peter one of the water,being indangerofdrowning,ahd the like: And laftly, wich thefe we invoke 'and call ‘upoh ‘fome certain and holy ‘names of God; to wit, fuch as are fignifigative toaccompli(h our defire,andaccommodatedto the defiréd effet: as,if it be too- verthrow enemies, we are to intoke and call upon'the names of Wrath, revenge, fear, juftice, and fortieude of God’: and if we would avoid and efcape any evil or danger ,-we then call upon the
the names of Mercy, Defence, Salvacion, Forticude,Goodnefs, and fuch like-names of God.

Andnow we come to treat of the Confecrations which men ought to make upon all inftruments and things neceflary tobe ufed in this Arc: and the vertue of this Confecration moft chiefly confifts in two'things; to wit, in the power ofthe per- fon confecrating, and by the vertue of the prayer by which the Confecration is made. For in the perfon confecrating, there is _ required holinefs of Life, and power of fan&ifying: both which are acquired by Dignification and Initiation. And chat the per- fon himfelf fhould with a firm and undoubted faith believe the vert ue, power, and efficacie hereof. And then in the prayer it felf, by which this Confecration is made, there is required the like holinefS; which either folely confilteth in the prayer it (elf, as, if it be by divine infpiration ordained to this purpofe, fuch as we have in many places of the holy Bible; or that it be here- ~ unto infticuced through the power of the Holy * piric, in the
ordinationof the Church? Ocherwife there is inthe Prayer a San&imony, which is not onely by ic felf, but by the comme- moration of holy things ; as, the commemoration of holy Seri- ptures, Hiftories, Works, Miracles, Effe&ts, Graces, Promifes, Sacraments and: Sacramental things , and: the like.’ Which things, by a certain fimilitude, do feem properly or improperly to appertain to the thing confecrated. : There is ufed alfo theinvocation of fome Divine names,witk “the confignation of holy Seals,and.chings of elie like fort, which do condu& to fan&ification and ’expiation ; fuch as are the Sprinkling wich Holy- Water; Un@ions with holy Oyl,and ado- viferous Suffumigations appertaining to holy Worfhip. - And therefore in every Confecration there is ehiefly ufed the Bene- diction and Confecration of Water,Oyl, Fire,and Pumigations, ufed everywhere with holy Wax-lights or Lamps burning’ for without Lights no Sacramentistightly performed. Thisthere- fore is co be known, and firmly obferved, chatif any Confecra- tion be to’be made of ‘things profane, in which there is any : pol-
The fourth Book. St pollution or defilemene , then an exorcifing and expiation of thofe things ought to precede the confecration. Which things being fo made pure, are more apt to receive the infliiences of the Divine vertues. We arealfo toobferve, that in the end of every Confecration, after that the praver isrightly performed, the perfon confecrating ought toblef the thing confecrated,by breathing out (ome words,with divine verte and power of the prefene Confecration, with the commemoration of his vertue and authority , chatit may be the more duly performed , and wich an earneft & intentive minde. And therefore we will here lay down fome examples hereof,whereby the way tothe whole
. perfection hereof may the more ealily be made to appear unto
ou. \ 3 i : So then, inthe confecration of water, we ought to comme- morate how that God hath placed the firmament in che midf of the waters, andin what manner chat God placed the fountain of waters in the earthly Paradife, from whence {prang four ha- ly rivers, which watered the whole earth.’ Likewile we are to call coremembrance in what manner God madé the water to be the inftrument of executing kis juftice in the deftruGion of che Gyauts in the general deluge over all the earth, and in the overthrow of the hoft of Pharaoh in the Red-{ea 3 alfo how God led his own people chorow che midft of che:Sea ‘or dry ground , and through the midft of the river of -Fordan’s and likewife how marveloufly he drew forth water dut of the ftony rock in the wildernefS; and howat the prayer of Samfon, he caufeda fountain of runaing water to flow ont of the cheek- tooth of the jaw-bone of an afS: and likewife, how God hath made waters'the inftrument of his mercy, and of falvation, for che expiationof Original fin’: alfo, how Chrift was baptized in Jordan,and hath hereby fan@ified andclented the.waters. More- Over, Certain divine names are to be invocated, which are con- formable hereunto; as, that God is a living fountain, living water, the fountain of mercy’; ‘and games of the like'kinde. — , And likewife in the confecration of fire i we are-to éomme-’ morate how that God hath created che fireto be‘an inkrumenct co execute his juftice, for eee di vengeance, and for che’

Of Occult Philofophy,

Whofoever therefore would call up thefe kinde of Spirits, in the place where they abide , it ' ought to be done with odoriferous perfumes , and with {weet founds and infruments of Mufick> {pecially compofed for the bufinefs , with ufing of Songs, Inchantments and pleafant Verfes, wich praifes and promifes.
But thofe which are obftinace ro yeild to thefe things , are to be compelled with Threatnings, Comminations , Cur- fings, Delufions, Contumelies , and efpecially by threacning them to expel themfrom thofe places where they are con- verfant.

Lafily, when you would invocate thefe kinde of Spirits,you ought to prepare a Table in the place of invocation, covered wich clean linen; whereupon you fhall fetcnew bread, and running water or milk in new earthen veffels,and new knives. And you fhall make a fire, whereupon a purfume fhall be made.

In ovr-third book of Occult Philofophy , we have raughr how and by what meanes the Soul is joyried to the Body ; and, what hapneth co the foul afrer death,

It 1s alfo to be underftood 9 That thofe who are defirous co raile up any Souls of cthedead, they ought to do it in chofe places, wherein thele kinde of Souls are moft knowa‘to be converfant; or for fome alliance: alluring thoie fouls ‘into their forfaken body ; or for fome kinde of aftetion in cimes palt, unprefled in them in their life, drawing the {aid Souls to certain places, things; or-perfons: or for the forcible nature of fome place fitted and prepared for oro purge or“punifh: thefe fouls. Which places for che moft part are tobe known by the experience of vifions; nightly incurfionsyand appariti- ons, and fuch-like prodigies feen.
Therefore the places moft fitting for thefe thines:s are Church-yards. And better: then them, are chofe places wherein these is the execution of criminal Judgements.

Andin the outermoft-Circle, lec chere be drawh in che four Angles, the names of the prefidenrial Angels of che Air, chac day wherein you would do this work; cowir, the name of che King and his three Minifters, Withoutche Circle, in four Angles, let Pextagones be made.
