Si Luna et Iuppiter partili fuerint radiatione coniuncti, et eos simul partiliter collocatos in dextro quadrato positus Saturnus partili radiatione respexerit, et Mars simili hos eosdem per quadratum minaci radiatione percutiat, Sol vero sit in VI. vel in XII. loco, ex ista coniunctione servilis genitura decernitur
