“So the heavenly bodies necessarily teach their meaning [significatio] by the power placed in them by God and so one can infer that there are causes which signify. Nor does this in any way detract from divine omnipotence or liberty which are tied to secondary causes. Although God is a perfect and free agent, unrestricted by any natural law, yet he did not want to pervert the order of nature that he set up. And although God could have done everything without intermediaries… yet he was pleased by his inscrutable wisdom that all these things that normally happen in the world come from Him through means.” -Tycho Brahe (TBOO, I, p. 154 ) The concept of the stars having an effect on us is no different to the other elements in nature such as fire, air and water. You can use fire to cook your food or fire could be used to burn someone to death as was seen in the book of Daniel when YHWH saved him from the natural element that is fire - YHWH is the creator, so of course He can override the effects of something He created. However, if you were to accidently touch the stove as you cook dinner, I can assure you that you would be burned. So again: fire can cook your food and be used to keep you warm but if you inadvertently put your hand on a flame hot stove you would be burned. In other words fire is not good or bad in and of itself - it is just an element. This is the attitude we must have with the stars. The wandering stars each have their own effect. In this chapter I am going to cover all scriptural references to astrology. Every scripture used to try and invalidate the ancient and wise sciences of the stars (astrology) will be addressed. There is also a list of scriptures validating the use of the knowledge of the stars. (23 Pages)
