to be in opposition astrological concept
Sed si in horoscope <luppiter partiliter fuerit inventus, horoscopus> vero ipse sit in domo lovis [vel] Venerisque stella prospera se lovi radiatione coniungat et obstiterit Marti hac, qua diximus, radiatione grassanti, omnia haec calamitatum funera maxima parte mutantur.
‘If Jupiter is on the ascendant but Mars himself in the house of Jupiter, and Venus favorably aspected to Jupiter and in opposition to Mars, all these deadly calamities are to a great extent changed.’
