Is it wrong for a Christian to study horoscope signs for the purpose of psychological analysis only?

Ray: Is it wrong for a Christian to study horoscope signs for the purpose of psychological analysis only?
According to the Bible, I know it is wrong to use horoscope signs for studying the future. But how about studying the character descriptions of my own horoscope sign for the purpose of identifying and improving my character flaws?

Think that is a grey area. The Bible does not say there’s anything wrong with trying to understand myself better.

Biblically speaking, yes. Horoscopes are a forecast of a person’s future. That would be classed as sorcery and magic.

Answer by Shortcake
You’re still using the same source of evil, just for a different purpose. Horoscopes and the signs associated with them are based on astrology, which is a sin. Instead of looking the stars, look the Maker of the Stars.

Answer by dogpatch USA
it’s a source of material . I don’t see why not . It won’t foretell the future but it does give a bunch of characteristics of no real particular order. these predictions are only as good as the number of people who swallow them and help to actuate them into occurrence. or those who can take them along with real principles for future speculation.

Answer by Ancient
The stars will avail you of nothing. It is vanity to worship the host of heaven in any fashion. Seek the counsel of the Almighty God, turn to His Word. Seek and you shall find.

May the Lord bless you and keep you always.

Answer by Amy
“The purpose of a horoscope is to gain insight into a person’s character and foretell the future. The basic belief of astrology is that planets and stars exert an influence upon our lives. Those with special knowledge—astrologers—can predict events in a person’s life. It is distressing that most major newspapers have a horoscope column, and even more distressing that many Christians read their horoscopes.

“The Bible expressly forbids divination, sorcery, and hidden arts (Deuteronomy 18:10-14). God’s people are to heed God only (Deuteronomy 18:15). Any other source of guidance, information, or revelation is to be rejected outright. (See also Acts 16:16-18.) The Bible points to Jesus Christ as the only proper focus of faith (Acts 4:12; Hebrews 12:2). Our trust is in God alone, and we know that He will direct our paths (Proverbs 3:5-6). Faith in anything besides God is misplaced.

“Astrology, then, opposes biblical teaching in at least two ways: it advocates faith in something other than God, and it is a form of divination. We cannot determine God’s will for our lives through horoscopes. As Christians, we are to read the Bible and pray to God in order to gain wisdom and guidance. Consulting a horoscope is a violation of God’s means of communicating with His children. We strongly believe that horoscopes should be rejected by Christians.”

Pray this prayer out loud: Dear Heavenly Father, please bring to my mind anything and everything I have done knowingly or unknowingly that involves the occult, cult, false religious teachings or practices. I want to experience Your freedom by renouncing any and all false guidance. Lord Jesus, I confess that I have participated in [astrology/horoscopes and the name of any other belief and involvement], and I renounce them all as counterfeits. I pray that You will fill me with Your Holy Spirit so that I may be guided by You. Thank you that in Christ I am forgiven. Amen.”

Love in Jesus.
