Platice vitae locus est in eo signo in quo est horoscopus constitutus
‘In general the House of Life is in the sign in which the ascendant is located’
tertius, aequali terris in parte nitentem qui tenet exortum, qua primum sidera surgunt, unde dies redit et tempus describit in horas, hinc inter Graias horoscopos editur urbes, nec capit externum, proprio quia nomine gaudet.
‘The third cardinal, which on the same level as the Earth holds in position the shining dawn, where the stars first rise, where day returns and divides time into hours, is for this reason in the Greek world called the Horoscope, and it declines a foreign name, taking pleasure in its own.’
