"Dorotheus II 2 (ed. Pingree, p. 199) gives instructions for finding the Lot of Marriage: the elongation of Venus from Saturn is to be added to the ascendant (for diurnal nativities of men and, apparently, nocturnal nativities of women) or subtracted from the ascendant (for diurnal nativities of women and nocturnal nativities of men)." (Jones 1999: II 276)
