FAQs
One of the religions that influenced the zodiac was Taoism. In the Taoist beliefs, they use constellations and space to determine a person's future. This applies to the zodiac because in Chinese astrology, they believe that the positions of the things in space can affect a person's destiny.
Believing in the power and authority of astrology goes directly against biblical wisdom and Scripture clearly states that chasing after false gods is a sin (Matthew 24:24, 1 Corinthians 8:6, Exodus 20:3). There is no biblical evidence that God has given authority to the stars or astrologists.
Neither atheists nor astrologists believe in gods.
As believers, we are not defined by an astrological sign. Our identity is found in Christ alone. It is not healthy or beneficial for a believer to live or identify themselves by their zodiac sign. This would be partaking in divination and in the occult, which is sinful.
Believing in your zodiac sign or those of others is a false way of finding out one's personality traits. As per the scriptures, Christians need to be aware that this is a sin. As Christians, we are highly discouraged from engaging in all acts of fortune-telling, astrology, or reading of the stars.
