The Witches' Dream Book; and Fortune Teller: Embracing full and correct rules of divination concerning dreams and visions, foretelling of future events, their scientific application to physiognomy, palmistry, moles, cards, &c.; together with the application and observance of talismen charms, spells and incantations.
Noe, A. H.
Dreams; Fortune-telling
But being unfortunate, she causes lasciviousness, incontinency and
boasting, and if you find a cross also, near the first joint of the thumb,
it denotes an adulterer, or such a person on whom a misfortune has
happened in some luxurious matter. If the place of Venus be untilled, it
points out an effeminate, rude and sorrowful person, foolishly and
ridiculously addicted to be merry and jesting.
XII.--MARS.
MARS is fortunate, so often as his sister appears red, clear and decently
drawn, and when either star or cross is found in his cavea. Thus,
therefore, he denotes such as are bold and full of courage, stout,
warlike, contentious, strong and lusty; imperious; the hair for the most
part yellow; the eyes from black waxing red and terrible. If Jupiter
participate, he possesses the gall, the reins, the back, the liver, &c. If
with Venus, those parts of the body under her dominion. But if he be
froward and unfortunate, he describes men to be litigious, violent,
deceitful, passionate, &c.
XIII.--JUPITER.
JUPITER is happy or fortunate when in his region he exhibits signs that
are auspicious--that is, if there be a star or double cross, parallel
lines, or a line decently drawn from the vital to his tuberculum, &c. For
thus he signifies men that are noble, honest, benevolent, affable,
honorable, merry, just, equitable, beautiful, formidable and happy, such
as have comely eyes, thick hairs and a grave gesture; likewise such as are
bashful, and likewise such as will keep their promises, &c. These men are
preferred to great dignities, and solicited by many great men, and do
highly favor and esteem their wives, sons, honest and good men. In men,
Jupiter rules the liver, blood, ribs, lungs and gristles. But, if he is
unfortunate, he oftentimes throws a man headlong from a great estate to
great calamities; if there be half a gridiron in his tuberculum, it
betokens losses, especially by means of the more potent sort of women;
otherwise thus constituted, he causes grief of the heart, cramps,
inflammations of the lungs and other diseases proceeding from wind; if a
line transversely cut his tuberculum, and afterwards tend to the place of
Saturn, making those little hairs, it threatens apoplexy. But, if you find
a cross especially, or a clear and red star in his tuberculum, he gives
splendid honors, confers riches and public rewards from great personages
or princes.
XIV.--SATURN.
