The Right Witness original: "Ostis" is a scribal error for "Testis," meaning witness is not called a "master," but here it represents the parents from whom it originates; it signifies the effect they have on all the superior figures from which they are generated in the lineage. The Left Witness original: "Testis sinister" is also not called a "master," but is placed here for grace and essence; it signifies the effect they have on all the superior figures from which they are generated in the lineage.
Every right-hand figure signifies an ill omen through the four figures separated at the sides; therefore it is not called the master, but the Judge The "Iudex" is the final figure produced by combining the two Witnesses from the left-hand types and all those things that were in the lineage; thus it looks back and pertains to them expressly.
The sixteenth figure is the "judicial" figure, which is called artificial meaning derived through method rather than appearing naturally in the first twelve houses because it comes from the two natural figures among the twelve; and this naturally represents what must fully be resolved by its own nature at the end, according to the matter of their parents or that which is being asked; this happens naturally in the time of the parents.
Saturn is a planet, not a [fixed] star, which is represented by these two figures:
Two geomantic figures in red ink: Tristitia (Sorrow: two dots, two dots, two dots, one dot) and Carcer (The Prison: one dot, two dots, two dots, one dot)
namely, by these points. For he is always evil and never good, and therefore he always signifies evil for his own people and for strangers in every place; he is called evil in both good fortune and misfortune. Naturally, he signifies the element of Earth, the countryside, peasants, a person lying sick, lepers, the sightless, the blind, paleness, darkness, melancholy, a poor person who goes door-to-door, captivity, being bound in prison, the accused, the condemned, the amputated and dismembered, the dead, the buried, those weeping and wailing, heavy weariness, weight, sadness, pain, punishment, smoke, shadows, fear, dread, frost, tribulation, scarcity, hunger, burial, tears, stench original: "ferorem", likely "foetorem", a stain, a shameful thing, damage, ruin, hatred, envy, old age, weak men, the poor, poor laborers like woodcutters, ditch-diggers, cleaners of vines and latrines original: "lacrine", and all those who bury the dead, laziness, slowness, the wicked, the hateful, the shameful and vile—such as rough mountains and alps, snow and ice, thorns, the donkey, and everything that is evil and nothing good.
Jupiter is a planet, not a [fixed] star, which is signified by these two figures:
Two geomantic figures in red ink: Acquisitio (Gain: two dots, one dot, two dots, one dot) and Laetitia (Joy: one dot, two dots, two dots, two dots)
namely, by these points; for he is always good and never evil for his own and for strangers, and therefore he always signifies good everywhere. Whence he is called pious, good, merciful, and fortunate; and naturally he signifies beautiful weather, a clear sky, the tempering of the air, and health.
