Joseph Kent (2)
The following Nativity is that of Joseph
Kent; this Child lived, with his Parents in the City of Lincoln, and on
the twelfth of July, 1824, in consequence of his not returning home from
school at the usual time in the Evening, his Relatives were alarmed for
his safety, and applied to me, on the morning of the following day,
Requesting my Judgment, whether he was living or dead; they informed me
that he was born at Liverpool, on the 6th of June, 1817, at half past
eleven at night, and further observed I might depend that the time of
his Birth, was exact, being taken by his Father, (who is now living,)
with the greatest care and attention; As soon as 1 had observed that the
Effects of the mortal Directions to the true Hyleg were then in
operation, and that all the secondary significators of Life were
likewise afflicted both by position, and Direction, without any relief
from, benefic irradiation, the giver of life being angular, in Pisces, a
sign of the watery Trigon, with Saturn, & applying to the Body of
that Malefic by a converse Motion, and also to the Zodiacal Parallel,
and conjunction of Mars, by a direct Direction; I then delivered my
Judgment, that the Child was drowned, and told those who applied to me
on this melancholy occasion, that the River, which had been
superficially examined, ought to be more diligently explored, which was
accordingly done, and the Body was found near the Swivel Bridge, though
all signs of Life had disappeared; these facts are well known to the
Inhabitants of Lincoln. I have inserted this Nativity with the following
directions, & judgment, which will doubtless be considered as an
interesting Example, by all those; who are seriously inclined to
investigate, and prove the true principles of this Heavenly Science.

This chart appears p. 84 of
Celestial philosophy. It is followed, as usual at Worsdale, with a list of directions that seems exhaustive. As I said elsewhere, this theme was the subject of a post in the forum:
http://skyscript.co.uk/forums/viewtopic.php?t=7182 where we notice several examples of programs in action (Janus, Placidus, Morinus ...). It is in this post, in particular, that an allusion is made to the declination parallels which seemed so important to Placidus.
I. Natal chart
You see here the "modern" theme of this geniture. There are two 'HYLEGIAL' places in house I (Mo) and in house IV (Su); Unfortunately, MA and SA frame the MO directly, a situation to always examine carefully. House I extends widely with regard to latitude and its control is shared between Sa and Ju. The So is placed at the IC, difficult position in IV. The coincidence makes that in this theme, several planets are at domicile: MA (Aries), VE (Taurus), ME (Geminis) and JU (Sagittarius); it's more than average. Note also that the MC ruler is Ju, itself practically at the meridian, in IX.
The examination of the Campanus domitudes shows a conjunction between MO (15 ° in I) and Ma (18 ° in I) that does not necessarily allow to guess the zodiacal theme (the planetary latitudes are quite consistent: especially for Lu to -4 ° 53 '38 ") The Placidus are less close and there is a mundane Campanus
# JU - SU.
The ALMUDEBIT is JU, the ALMUTEN (Ibn Ezra, Omar) is VE and the ruler of ASC appears to be VE. Observe that the ALCHOCODEN is JU (ptolemaïc zodiacal ray * with ASC).
Observe a conjunction between ALGOL and VE. SU appears detrimental.
