1, Plate XXII.) is with only one exception a most fortunate
mark to possess. On the Mount of Jupiter, the Star promises added honour,
power, and position.
On the Mount of Sun, it gives riches and glory, but generally associated
with a public life.
On the Mount of Mercury, unusual success in commerce, business, science,
or great eloquence, according to other indications of the hand. (11,
Plate XXII.)
On the Mount of Mars under Jupiter, great distinction and celebrity in
martial life or in some one decisive battle, which gives renown to the
rest of the career, like a Wellington at Waterloo.
On the Mount of Mars under Mercury, it gives honour won by the mentality
fighting the battle of life (_see_ Mounts, page 144).
On the Mount of the Moon it is a sign of great celebrity arising from the
qualities of this Mount, viz., through the imagination or inventive
faculties.
On the Mount of Venus the Star on the centre of this Mount is also a sign
of success, but in relation to animal magnetism and sensuality it gives
extraordinary success with the opposite sex.
On the Mount of Saturn it is the one unfavourable sign of this
particular mark, and on this Mount it gives distinction, but one to be
dreaded. Such a person will be the plaything of destiny, a man cast for
some terrible part in the tragedy of life. Such a man's life will end in
some terrible disaster, but one which will cause his name to be on
everyone's lips. A king perhaps, but one crowned by doom.
