As a Christian, is it okay to believe in horoscopes?

[Tintin]

When people ask me what my sign is, I reply, "Pass With Care." I've tried saying "Ped Xing," but since I don't say 'crossing,' but instead 'zing,' no one ever gets it.

I'm a bit more blunt. When people ask for my sign (which is rarely these days) I say, "I don't believe in that crap".

I understand I think I need to look at my beliefs a second time

The thing on astrology is that DEMONS may "help" you to believe those things THEY SAY.

Personal example: When I was your age, I went to climb mountain "Avila", I met a friend there and both were assaulted by two bandits... When I came back home, I read the newspaper and, being completely PAGAN, I believed what the horoscope session told for that day, within some additional things: "...there is a risk you be stolen things today..."

That time I didn´t know GOD, I believed those lies demon-possed (or "inspired") people could write on a piece of paper or TV broadcast daily for you PEOPLE to believe.

This is a spiritual war where our minds (soul) is the important target. Once the hit YOUR MIND, they possed people´s bodies.

Well, when someone asks me what sign am I? I also say pass, however the fish sign of christianity comes to mind. so I reply the fish, then they automatic think of the sign Pisces? I just say no. think again. lol

The problem with Satanic things is that Satan will tell you truth after truth after truth, THEN throw in the lie. He reels you in then deceives you. It's an old, old strategy, but people have been falling for it since man was created.

Astrology and Horoscopes are Occult and a big sin. Astronomy is something different thou. Astrology and stuff are some of the biggest doors the devil uses to get a right on you. be careful and repent of any time you read horoscopes or went to a fortune teller and so on. god bless you

Weird Al Yankovic probably has the most accurate description of the the silliness that horoscopes are...and it's not a half-bad ska tune, either. "Try to avoid any Virgos or Leos...with the Ebola virus. You are the true lord of the dance, no matter what those idiots at work say."

Weird Al gave me the best advice ever with that song. I never did try to shove a roll of duct tape up my nose while taking my driver's test, all thanks to him.

Reading your horoscope is not a sin, nor is it evil. BUT if you rely on your horoscope to determine how you live your life, then that's when it turns into being an idol, and idol worship is a sin..

This is one dug up thread that seems quite relevant. So many think horoscopes are just that, fun predictions but already misleading.
