We have all done it - looked up our zodiac sign to better understand ourselves. Some have even gotten so enamored with astrology and horoscopes, they use it as a guide for decision making and to prepare for what the future may hold. But, the Bible calls this form of idol worship "divination" and commands we avoid it. So why do as many as one in four Christians still, even innocently, dabble in the study of astrology? In this continuation of their look at the New Age, Ciara and Jessi reveal what God has said about astrology and shed light on the clear distinction between Biblical stargazing and sinful worship of celestial bodies.
