will do it但随后回复我的follow up邮件又说，No worries, kept pestering me and
I'll try the －－－ route this weekend。
这pestering好像是个很贬义的词，有点很不耐烦了（可你当初答应说好的啊）。不知
道对方到底会不会做。大家说说我要回复吗？要的话，该如何回复会有好的效果啊？没

When the Creator had finished thinking, He said, "I have thought. Behold!"
He lifted His hand, and from it burst a fountain-spray of fire, a million
stupendous suns, which clove the blackness and soared, away and away and
away, diminishing in magnitude and intensity as they pierced the far
frontiers of Space, until at last they were but as diamond nailheads
sparkling under the domed vast roof of the universe.
At the end of an hour the Grand Council was dismissed.

发帖数: 4301 | 31 占星警句（Choice Aphorisms）原文摘选自卡丹(Jerome Cardan 1501—1576)的着作《
Seven segments of Cardan》。卡丹被誉为16世纪的博学者，拥有数学家、物理学家、
医药学家、天文学家、及术士等多个头衔。在他的有生之年，他出版了多达54本着作和
44件手稿，内容涉及了他研究的各个领域。占星警句讲的是星盘分析的一些规则和条文
，按条目的方式列出，分为总论篇、命盘篇、推运篇、医疗篇、择时篇、蚀彗篇、气候
篇、农作篇、实事篇等9部分，论及范围着实广泛。不过，如果以条文的数目来看，命
盘篇是核心部分，共计100条，其它篇的内容相对少很多，可能是与删节有关。
在历史上的顶级占星名家中，还没有Cardan的位置，不知是不是他学识太杂的原因，
很多谈及他的资料均是与数学、人文科学或玄学相关，占星作为玄学，只是他学识中的
一小部分。根据有关资料的判断，占星警句很可能是他汇编成文的，其中有不少条文内
容是值得我们深入思考和借鉴的。
