STARS INFLUENCE ON HISTORY.
Good and Bad Luck that Has Been
Traced to Various Planets.

! Since one OF the eminent astrono-
mers at Harvard college has signified
i his belief in astrology as well as as
tronomy, it is interesting to note some
| curious political condolences occur
i ring with certain positions OF the plan
| cts in our own constellation, and one
need not feel especially credu1ous in
manifesting desire to investigate the
/ occult says the New York Press.
| For instance, the sign Gemini rules
the United States. Jupiter in that sign
| brings good to the country. The
/ square of Saturn to Jupiter during the
last transit gave the Undertaking
| tendency, for such a position tends to
| a reign of conscientious scruples, and
the uncovering of misdemeanors, as
| sisting in their correction. A favorable
aspect of Saturn to Jupiter gives mon
! ey prosperity to the world at large,
and unfavorable aspects produce hard
1 times.
The positions of Jupiter and Saturn
always bring about results In rela-
ton to their conjunction, the meet
| ings are periodical and are found to
occur every 1881 days hours %
minutes "A seconds. These conjuncc-
! lions are made uniformly In each or
the IL zodfacal signs in a retrograde
order at the distance of 12O degrees
Ca trine or third part of the zodiac-)
If, for instance, a conjunction took
place in the fiery sign. Sagittarrius,
the following conjunction would hap
pen after the elapse of the aforemen-
toned period of nearly 20 years in the
fiery sign Leo, 100 degrees from Sag
ittarrius, and the next after that in the
fiery sign Aries The fourth con-
junction would take place in Sagittar-
RUS again. Thus they would proceed
for the space of 200 years, in the same
quality of signs. differing about 3 de-
grees in longitude from the place of
each other, till after o conjunctiOns
made in the same triplicity of fiery
signs, 1t would occur in earthly signs.

At the time of the conjunction the

by the transit of Saturn square to the

The new house of commons. found

if in the meantime, no evil transit or

where the conjunction takes place.
These conjunctions have remarkable
influence on individuals when they
take place in important positions IN
the horoscope, or transit in aspect to /
planets in the birth horoscope. Charles
II of England was affected by transit
to such extent that it embrofled
his life. In 1902 the conjunction took
place where Napoleon had Mars at

Whenever the planet Herschel is in |
