Hmmm, can you give me your exact time and place of
birth?
I can't predict much without being able to place
your sun, moon and planets
in houses with reference to your rising
sign. You were born with the Sun in
Saggitarius, Moon in Taurus, Mercury and Venus in
Capricornus, Mars in Aquarius,
Jupiter in Pices, and Saturn in
Libra.
You might want to consult astrology books on those
placements yourself.
The problem with astrolgy nowadays is that
it has no central school or authority,
much like the traditional Christian
religion.
jt: Of course it does.
Astrology is part of the lie and it's central authority is the
father of lies. Christianity's
authority is the Lord Jesus Christ who is presently
seated at the right hand of the
Father in heaven.
This means anyone who wants can presume to be an
authority on the subject--
even worse, there is no "Bible" or Book of Mormon
to go to for settling disagreements.
I personally believe in ancient times it may have
been a real science, at least in sense
that it used math and only pretty smart men were
able to read it.
jt: Must have been "deceived" smart
men.
Let's face it, the astrologers or wise men from the
East in Christ's time were able to
employ it to locate the Lord's place and time of
birth. There is evidence the Patriarchs
Abraham, Isaac and Jacob used it, and taught it to
their children
jt: Where do you find this evidence?
I've studied scripture for a long time and all I've
ever seen is God's warnings and
cautions against it. It's a good way to inherit the
curse rather than
blessing.
How did it get started? It's actual origins seem to have been lost in the dim past.
It may have originally been given to man as a
revelation from God, but has
obviously become
corrupted, and consequently today is looked upon as a
despicable psuedo-science.
jt: It is idolatrous and heretical
with men looking to the creation for answers rather
than to the Creator.
Also it locks people into certain
personality traits - when God
sent His own Son (before the
foundation of the worlds) to make
them free.
