Astrological judgments and excerpts
- Scope & Content:
-
A collection of astrological judgments and other extracts each introduced with the word نكثه (= نكتة). The same incorrect pointing of this word (ث instead of ت) is found on the contents page (f. 2v), where this section of the text is referred to as 'wise sayings and excerpts' (نكث واختيارات).
A new section (فصل) of judgements beginning on f. 158v is numbered 16 (يو) in the present collection. The section ends with a few longer extracts.
Begins (ff. 157r, line 13-157v, line 2):
نكثة مناظرة زحل للمريخ والجوزهر في الطالع
من السابع أو الرابع والخامس يدل على القتال
الشديد والجوع وكثرة الشر ...
Ends (f. 160v, lines 1-6):
فصل االمريخ إذا ناظر الشمس أو صاحب بيته
من البروج النارية نطر عداوة أتى الملك ما يكره
من جهة المشرق ومن البروج الهوائية
من جهة المغرب ومن البروج الأرضية
من جهة الجنوب ومن بروج المائية
من جهة الشمال
