It seems most astrologers, or most whose views on the subject were recorded, thought the Black Death was caused by a lunar eclipse that took place on March 18, 1345. In the chart of this eclipse, Jupiter and Saturn were conjoined in Aquarius, where Mars was also. The Sun and Mercury were in Aries, so the Moon was in Libra, and Venus was just passing into Taurus from Aries.

There may have been some who believed that the Black Death was caused, or perhaps made worse, by a solar eclipse on February 11, 1347, in which the Sun, Moon, Mercury and Saturn were all in Pisces, the sign of hospitals and confinement, Venus and Jupiter were in Aries, and Mars was in Aquarius, in the same place Jupiter and Saturn had been in the earlier, lunar, eclipse.
