For some people, Astrology can be exciting because it foretell the secrets of our future and unlocks the door of our destiny. It answers some of our questions of what life awaits for us about our love-life, marriage, career, and wealth. Some consider it as an entertainment just to have fun. For others its comforting, being able to trust and discuss and open your past and your dreams through astrology. But, not all are happy when we are talking about divination and future readings like tarots, runes and astrology most of them are frightened.
In ancient times, astrology is a big and important part of humanity. Philosophers like Johannes Kepler, Ptolemy, Galileo Galilei, John Dee, Thomas Harriot, and Doctors like Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung are astrologers in their time. Today, many people see astrology as demonic practice and witchcraft. But in reality it’s a great knowledge only few could understand and handle its power. These people are afraid of astrology because based on the Bible, God forbids this type of knowledge.
You should only worship and trust God for he is the savior of mankind.
This is true for some who studies and learns astrology especially in ancient times; they start to worship the stars and planets. They think that the celestial bodies have the power over the living on earth. They started to pray for Saturn to avoid punishment upon them within its particular transit they will going to experience. They started to praise the sun, the moon, and thank Venus for their new found love. They started believing that these planets could save them and bring them luck thats why many religions are against it and prohibit the practice of it.
Along with the sun and moon, were given for “signs” and “seasons” (Genesis 1:14)
The signs are the Twelve Mazzaroth, or the Twelve Zodiac Signs, which indicate the whole season within a year. They are also “signs” in the sense of navigational “indicators,” and all through history men have used the stars to chart their courses around the globe. It is only a sign to foretell what is going to happen, not our God. Because of what we learn from our religion, we became afraid of astrology thinking it comes from the demons from hell. In addition, those very religious countries that uses astrology in the entertainment industry to make people laugh is one reason why many of us do not believe and do not take this stuff seriously. As if it was a big joke, not a true knowledge and those who believes and practice it has some serious mental illness.
Our wisdom comes from God, not the stars (James 1:5).
The Word of God, the Bible, is our guide through life (Psalm 119:105).
Some people are afraid of astrology because they experienced an accurate and very unfortunate prediction that created a “future phobia” or fear of the unknown and the unseen. These people have an intense fright of what will going to happen in their life and resist on guessing what will come up and avoid astrologers that come in their way. They might become very insecure about their self and resist to plan ahead for their future achievements because of this experience. They are also the ones who cannot face the reality that life has its ups and downs. They are the ones who choose to live in their fantasy, and a bad prediction might destroy their dreams and lose hope.
Some people are afraid of astrology because you may read their past that they want to hide from you. These people possess some deep dark secrets and to reveal it because you might judge them or walk away from them. These people are wounded, hurt, and traumatized that they forever decided to bury or run away from their past. They are also afraid that you may use their secrets and weakness to tame and manipulate them. These are the persons who sometimes lie with their true birth information.
