1647Lilly Chr. Astrol. iii. 32 Of late one Kepler, a learned man, hath added some new ones as follow..A Tredecile..consisting of 108 degrees. 1674S. Jeake Arith. (1696) 11 Aspects... Sesquiquintil or Tredecil. 1727–41Chambers Cycl., Aspect, To the five ancient aspects, the modern writers have added several more; as decile,..tridecile,..[etc.]. 1819J. Wilson Compl. Dict. Astrol. 101 The new aspects invented by Kepler are mostly produced by sub⁓dividing the others... The Tredecile, of 108°, is a quintile and half, or three deciles... Those arising from a division of the △ or {star} by 5 were [thought by Kepler to be] good; thus..the tredecile, being a quintile and a half, is good. |
