Si Saturnus et Luna unum hospitium partis acceperint, et in eodem loco pariter constituti aequabili societatis ratione iungantur, is omnes impetus et omnes animi cogitationes et omnes actus inbecilla timoris trepidatione semper inpugnant.

‘If Saturn and the Moon take up the hospitality of one degree and equally located in the same place join in equatable ratio of union [i. e. conjunction], they always attack all impulses and all thoughts of the mind and all actions with the feeble nervousness of fear.’
