When the Sun enters the sign of its exaltation, it will repeat the year beginning at the head of the zodiac at the meridian of the city of Rome, in the year 1484, according to the calculation of the tables of Alfonso, King of Castile, on the 10th of March, at the 14th hour, 55 minutes, 33 seconds, equated. Approaching the horoscope most closely at the 22nd degree of Capricorn. The preceding conjunction of the luminaries, in which Ptolemy says there is the greatest power, will be on the 2nd of March, at the 0th hour, 6 minutes, equated, with the 15th degree of Cancer rising.
The Sun will not be slow to enter the beginning of Cancer on the 12th of June, at the 2nd hour, 17 minutes, 20 seconds, equated, seeking the horoscope nearest to the 28th degree of Libra. The preceding union of the luminaries will be on the 21st of May, at the 21st hour, 23 minutes, equated, with the 20th degree of Leo rising.
The Sun will hasten to enter the sign of Libra, equating day and night, on the 12th of September, at the 15th hour, 36 minutes, 16 seconds, equated, seeking our hemisphere nearest to the 2nd degree of Virgo. The preceding opposition of the luminaries will be on the 9th of September, at the 11th hour, 44 minutes, equated, with the 13th degree of Cancer rising.
The Sun will reach the circle of the winter solstice on the 11th of December, at the 19th hour, 11 minutes, 44 seconds, equated, being in the 26th degree of Sagittarius in the horoscope. The preceding diametrical aspect of the luminaries will be on the 7th of December, at the 18th hour, 1 minute, equated, with the 6th degree of Sagittarius rising. The Moon, being near the tail of the dragon the lunar node on the 7th of December, will begin to be eclipsed at the 16th hour, 16 minutes. It will be entirely obscured on the same day at the 18th hour, 1 minute. It will rejoice to have escaped all shadows at the 19th hour, 45 minutes. We would say something about this eclipse if we saw its effects appearing this year. But since they are drawn out to the future year, I judged it right (if I am not mistaken) that it is not yet clear to say anything.
