    Because in christianity the first evil act was Eve eating from the tree of knowledge.God supposedly wants to be the only all knowing being and it was the devil that convinced her to do it. Thus things like astrology is called the occult or devil worship.It's also a form of idolatry.

    I believe in God but I love astrology so that's why I won't give myself completely to my faith and why should I give it up-"Early Christianity took far more interest in the stars than did Judaism or Islam the Old Testament hold that the Creator had placed the stars in the sky as signs? And no Christian at that time dared to deny that the signs had same significance."

    Cause Christians believe we use astrology to see into the future and that's something only god can do. That is called anti-christ same thing with horoscopes

  • I'm Christian, and I'm interested in astrology. I don't take astrology REALLY seriously or anything, but I don't think it's evil!

    I think where this comes from, is that Christians think it's wrong to listen to astrology INSTEAD OF god. doesn't mean you can't listen to both :)

    Like grey said.. who said God doesn't have a hand in astrology?

    Stop stereotyping.

    I am a Christian and I study & believe in Astrology.

    Just because many Christians believe anything having to do with predicting the future is Satan's work doesn't mean ALL Christians believe that.

    Many Christians believe God holds their fate in his hands and they trust him doing that.

    According to the bible, if you believe in astrology or fortune telling you are following a fake idol; in other words you are forget about your true creator and following a fake one, and that's evil's work. I don't believe in astrology, but I find it fun and entertaining. ,

    Everything is evil and devil to them if it's not a part of their religion.

    That's how most of them operates.
