1. An Election signifies nothing or very little unless it correspond with the Nativity, and time wherein you Elect.
2. If you would have anything kept secret let the Moon be under the Sun beams when you do it
3. Make no new clothes, nor first put them on when the Moon is in Scorpio, especially if she be full of light and beheld of Mars, for they will be apt to be tom and quickly worn out.
4. When in an Election you cannot fit the Moon to two Planets that you have occasion for, at once, join her to some fixed star that is of the nature of them both.
5. When you would suddenly finish a thing, place the Moon and significator in Moveable Signs, but if you would have your work last long, let them be in fixed ones, and for this reason it becomes so difficult for a man to attain to do both.
6. The best election a man can make is the place of his habitation: for if the Ascendant of the City he dwells in be the place of his Ascendant, he will have his health well, if the Mid-Heaven, he will come to preferment, if it be the place of the Sun in the Nativity, he will undoubtedly obtain honour and dignities, if of Jupiter he will grow rich; if of the Moon he will be very happy in most respects there.
7. Every man's geniture in some things agrees with, and in some differs from another's, we should therefore deal with people (as to important matters) only in things wherein their Nativities sympathize with ours, but in other things to forbear, and indeed we ought generally to avoid the society of a person the Lord of whose Ascendant is an infortune and joined with the Dragon's Tail or any malevolent Fixed Star, for unless there be a great agreement between our Nativities they will do us some mischief, though perhaps against their will.
8. When the significators of journies are in watery signs and the Infortunes (or the Fortunes themselves unfriendly posited) be elevated above them, the querent will be much troubled in his journies with bad weather and tempests, and note that the causes or business of journies is to be discovered from the dispositors of the significators.
9. You may sometimes use the Infortunes as Physicians do poisons, for they produce strong effects; but use them like those, sparingly and with caution.
10. News or reports raised and spread abroad whilst the Moon is in the beginning of Scorpio or Capricorn are generally false, but if she be with Jupiter in a masculine sign they are like to prove true.
11. Begin not to build whilst the Moon is in Scorpio or Pieces or when a southern sign ascends, nor let the Moon or Lord of the fourth apply to a Retrograde Planet, for it threatens that such edifice shall soon fall or be ruined.
12. At Play and in War it is said that it is considerable for s man to have his face look towards a friendly Part of Heaven, and that if both parties do so, the contest will be tedious, if neither of them, then both in battle will be much prejudiced, and in gaming there will be little won on either side, but if one of them only look that way, he will soon conquer his antagonist.
13. In every Election let the Moon and Lord of the Ascendant be free from impediment or affliction.
14. But if when the Moon suffers some impediment from another Planet, thou art forced on that day to make an election, let a sign ascend that is either the house or exaltation of that Planet so impediting.
15. It is best to undertake journies when the significators are in moveable signs, for they signify celerity and return with dispatch of business, but fixed signs in such cases are very bad, so also it is if the Lord of the Ascendant or Moon happen to be in the sixth, eighth, or twelfth houses.
16. It is an undeniable thing (in general) to deliver a petition or request to a great person when the Moon applies to Jupiter, and he is joined with the Dragon's Head in the Mid-heaven.
