The
Cross
THE
cross is the opposite of the star, and is seldom found as
a favorable sign. It indicates trouble,
disappointment, danger, and sometimes a change in the position
of life, but one brought about by trouble.
There is, however, one position in which it is a good sign
to have it, namely, on the Mount of Jupiter In this position
it indicates that at least one great affection will come
into the life. This is especially the case when the line
of fate rises from the Mount of Luna. A strange feature
with this cross on Jupiter is that it denotes roughly about
the time in life when the affection will influence the individual.
When close to the commencement of the line of life and toward
the side of the hand, it will be early; on the summit of
the mount, in middle life; and down at the base, late in
life.
On
the Mount of Saturn, when touching the line of fate, it
warns of the danger of violent death by accident; but when
by itself in the centre of this mount, it increases the
fatalistic tendencies of the life.
On
the Mount of the Sun it is a terrible sign of disappointment
in the pursuit of fame, art, or riches.
The
cross on the Mount of Mercury, as a rule, indicates a dishonest
nature, and one inclined to duplicity.
On
the Mount of Mars under Mercury it denotes the dangerous
opposition of enemies; and on the Mount of Mars under Jupiter
force, violence, and even death from quarrels.
A
cross on the Mount of the Moon under the line of head denotes
a fatal influence of the imagination. The man with such
a sign will deceive even himself.
On
the Mount of Venus, when heavily marked, it indicates some
great trial or fatal influence of affection; but when very
small and lying close to the line of life, it tells of troubles
and quarrels with near relatives.
A
cross by the side of the line of fate, and between it and
the lifeline in the Plain of Mars, denotes opposition in
one's career by relatives, and means a change in the destiny;
but lying on the other side of the hand next to Luna it
relates to a disappointment in a journey.
Above
and touching the line of head, it foretells some wound or
accident to the head.
By
the side of the line of sun, disappointment in position.
Running
into the line of fate, disappointment in money, and over
the line of heart, the death of some loved one.
