This is translation from Latin made by me together with Lucia Bellizia of Apotelesma (she is great with Latin and Greek, and she is a great astrologer too).
Jean Stade - taught mathematics in the universities of Lovain and then Paris, and this text which is a part of De fixis stellis commentarius, was published in 1560.
And I agree, fixed stars have a really strong influence in a chart. I will check your link, thanks.

Did you originally translate this? It would be great to see a new modern publication which contains this knowledge about the fixed stars. That’s if you have nothing else to do I was particularly interested to read about the interpretations of Arcutus, as I have both Mercury and Venus on that star tightly opposing Saturn on Kurdah. If you haven’t done so already, you really should link this page on a comment at http://www.constellationsofwords.com/
