  1. Dangerous; hazardous. As the moon about every seventh day arriveth unto a contrary sign, so Saturn, which remaineth about as many years as the moon doth days in one sign, and holdeth the same consideration in years as the moon in days, doth cause these periculous periods. Sir T. Browne, Vulg. Err., iv. 12.
