In August, the story tells that the sky is full of reflections. A mid-month even Mars and Saturn behind it briefly in the last degrees of Virgo retrograde. Then, as the evening star, the light of Venus moves between these two, the crescent moon on 12 August against this triple conjunction. Action Mars, Venus, the desire, the soul of the Moon, and Saturn, the great master of the Karma, crying out for justice for all. For
astrology classical Greek or Mesopotamian this junction could be described as Aries, or Nergal, the warrior, which, together with the king of both, the Saturn female becomes the story, are blessed by Ishtar, the radiant Venus, the goddess of 'love. These events are incorporated in the month to be associated with the crescent moon. All this activity occurs in the sky in the space of the third decade of the Virgin, regulated precisely by the planet Venus. The story of the sky as the reign of a queen who is in exile or far, the queen of justice, order and purity, whose maximum value is the health and simplicity, which filosfia is simple and essential and must return to reign. The difference between good and evil for evil is that Virgin is sick, and the good makes you feel good. All other complications human Macchiavelli do wrong to produce any good, do not belong. For the astrologer classic so this Mars-Saturn conjunction could probably be read as a Queen in a distant astral plane than that right now is raising an army to restore order in our human affairs.
In particular, he writes of this conjunction Giulio Firmicus Mother, a Roman writer in Latin of late imperial age. Siciliano for his testimony, was born in Syracuse in the early fourth century, was a senator and lawyer for some time, but left the profession for political quarrels procurategli it. The next state of "otium" allowed Firmicus Mother to devote himself to studying humanities, published the most comprehensive treaty handed down from ancient astrology, books Matheseos VIII, the result of experience and studies in the neo-Platonic.
The first book is interesting because unlike the other seven, only the technical content, it contains a real moral defense of astrology, science inevitably fall in sospetto ai cristiani ma ampiamente praticata al tempo dell'autore per influsso della speculazione neoplatonica. Egli afferma che l'influenza degli astri si esercita sulla parte divina dell'anima umana e che solo un animo puro e libero da ogni peccato può accostarsi all'astrologia, disciplina che pone in costante contatto con la divinità.
È dimostrata poi l'importanza dell'influsso degli astri nel determinare la vita umana, e la spiegazione della storia del mondo fin dall'età di Saturno alla luce di tale principio. I restanti libri espongono diverse nozioni tecniche relative alla materia, con uno stile spesso compilatorio che però rende conto della sintesi di una lunga tradizione precedente.
Scrive Firmico riguardo Saturno conjunct Mars:
"If this conjunction is in suitable places in the parentage gives a costume just moderation and prudence, dampening the pulses in a benign disposition. In fact, the reckless daring, the bold effrontery, the impatient desire of the ardor of Mars are tempered by the cold waves of Saturn, weakened the enthusiasm that the nature of its heat was on, borrows from the union of his cold, consistency and prudence in composing the inclinations of men, since the heat of Mars , in shaping the slopes, always amazing muffled against the cold of Saturn. Therefore, the heat of Mars and Saturn cools the cold of the cold void of Saturn the flame of Mars and the temperance of this mixture the costumes of the men receiving the hallmarks of the seriousness of character. Nevertheless, the opposition of these stars prevents the industry, one pushing the other diverting from acting. And those who have Mars and Saturn do not take so willing never fully what they want, but always excited by the melancholy of the soul, leaving unfinished the object of their desire because of a weak desire. Also subject to various risks of diseases and their body is constantly undermined by disease and damage atrium repeatedly harm their health. A quick death extinguished and the father and mother, father's assets are dissipated on various occasions and their brothers is intended a bad end. Indeed, those who come first or are killed by a death or unhappy, deprived of any possibility of success, are subject to the authority of the fraternal reputation with great submission and respect. And the natives themselves these stars often bear great inconvenience and anxiety of overwhelming uncertainty. Now all these things take more force if the stars come together in a corner of parentage, as their nature will not bow to the various and ever changing circumstances, but they bear with firm and unchanging for all the effort and the onset conduct of any risk . However, if Jupiter were ranked in the top corners and signs in cui s’esalta o nel proprio domicilio o in luoghi favorevoli della genitura, allevierebbe tutte le condizioni d’infortunio."
