Indulging in astrology is engaging in occult practices. The word "occult" means "hidden darkness", it is associated with demons in the spiritual world.
We are not to be interacting with the demon world, we are to be fighting against them with truth and obedience to Christ.
Ephesians 6:12
"12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places."
When a believer is looking at astrology and their horoscope with pleasure and expectation, they are enjoying evil. Not only are they enjoying evil, they are spitting in the face of God that tells us not to be a part of demonic practices.
2 Corinthians 6:14-17
"14 Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?
15 And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?
16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you.
Isaiah 30:9-11 "…9 For this is a rebellious people, false sons, Sons who refuse to listen To the instruction of the LORD;
10 Who say to the seers, "You must not see visions"; And to the prophets, "You must not prophesy to us what is right, Speak to us pleasant words, Prophesy illusions.
11 "Get out of the way, turn aside from the path, Let us hear no more about the Holy One of Israel."…
Leviticus 19:26 "26 You shall not eat anything with the blood, nor practice divination or soothsaying."
Leviticus 20:6
“If a person turns to mediums and necromancers, whoring after them, I will set my face against that person and will cut him off from among his people."
The same people who claim to be Christians will check their horoscope every day will rarely pick up a Bible. They prefer to get information from the demonic world while negating the parts of God's Word they do not like.
Jeremiah 7:26-28 "…26"Yet they did not listen to Me or incline their ear, but stiffened their neck; they did more evil than their fathers.
27"You shall speak all these words to them, but they will not listen to you; and you shall call to them, but they will not answer you. 28"You shall say to them, 'This is the nation that did not obey the voice of the LORD their God or accept correction; truth has perished and has been cut off from their mouth.…"
I hope that someone who has been indulging in demonic practices thinking they fun, will begin to think about what they are doing while asking God to remove their desires from these things.
How do we remove the desire for sinful things? It's simple, ask for wisdom while immersing yourselves in the Word of God. God's Word cleanses from sin, the more we know about the mind of God, the more we desire of His wisdom.
Ephesians 5:26
"26 so that He might sanctify her, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word,"
God said that He will set His face against anyone who uses seers and necromancers or fortune tellers.
Warning: anyone who comes here to defend demonic practices will have their comments deleted and perhaps even they will be blocked. I am not interested in "equal time" here, truth is truth and there will be no acceptance of another view on this matter.
