If the moon and sun are in opposition: the king of the land will widen his understanding. — On the 14th day each month one god will be seen with the other.

In Tishri (VII), Marchesvan (VIII), and Kislev (IX), three months in a row, (the moon and sun) were seen for good fortune and length of days of the king my lord.

If the moon's horns at its appearance are very dark: disbanding of the fortified outposts, retiring of the guards; there will be reconciliation and peace in the land. — On the 14th day one god is seen with the other.

If Scorpius is black: therein will be reconciliation. Moon and Mercury have one meaning.
