Rubric: Zodiac

A circle imagined by the great sages
called the zodiac is placed here
in which 12 signs, good and bad,
turn with a clear order:
Men, beasts, plants, fish, and ships,
seemingly sense their sway.
The sun turns an entire month for each of them,
and there are six of them in each hemisphere.

Rubric: The signs and their complexion

Aries, Leo, and Saggitarrius are
firey in nature, hot and dry.
Cancer and Scorpio and Pisces, on the contrary,
are moist and cold, and then the Ram
and Virgo and Taurus are contrary to Aquarius,
because each of them is cold and dry,
and Capricorn is hot and dry and also Libra,
and then the one that joins the two twins together [Gemini].***

Rubric: Seven Spheres, Saturn

Then there are seven planets in seven spheres:
the one after the other, below, around and around.
Saturn is the first from which the light
seems to be an eastern sapphire in appearance.
Their proportions are real things,
which can see proof of this in each direction
through number and measure, without a lie,
as astrology clearly shows.
