“A religious belief system involving the idea that various gods represented by celestial bodies are assigned control over different parts of human anatomy in addition to the activity and personality of every person.”

Astrology has nothing to do with the sun, moon, planets and stars. The devil and his forces are the powers behind it.

True Definition ofAstrology:

Astrology Is Idolatry!

“And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads. And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth…” – Rev. 12:3-4a

“Be sober, be vigilant; be- cause your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walk- eth about, seeking whom he may devour: Whom resist stedfast in the faith…” -- I Peter 5:8-9a

Can Fallen Angels Influence Us?

“Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” -- James 4:7

If the devil and his demons couldn’t have any influ- ence on us, then there would be no need to resist them, nor to put on the whole armor of God.
