I'm also a Christian.  I know some are against it but I feel I have a God given gift for it, which is telling.

There are lines though. You never want to impinge on a person's free will. That's the big one.

@mirandag haha thank you Miranda! I don't know what it is, I used to read so much and thought I had a decent grasp, but I doubt I'll ever rise above elementary with it. Which is fine, it's still fun and enjoyable to look at and learn from!

I just started going to church again a few weeks ago and the sermon series was on the magi! My pastor explained that REAL astrology, is totally supported and promoted in the bible. The kind in the newspaper or fortune telling apps are NOT real astrology and they are bad because it’s lies. 

I was very concerned for about a decade before than sermon, but I was questioning my beliefs and values anyway, so It was par for the course. 

I am a Christian, but I know that history is written by the powerful and the bible has been edited and retranslated many many times. We also use it to promote silly cultural ideas that have nothing to do with the bible or Jesus. A friend of mine just posted some tradwife bs cloaked as religious dogma on my timeline and I had to eat a slice of cake and take an ativan to keep my mouth shut.

Many old churches and cathedrals have the astrological signs in their decor, often depicted on tiles on the floor or painted on the ceiling. They relate to the times of the year, the seasons, and cycles, just like a farmers almanac in pictures.
