Deuteronomy 4:19–And beware lest you lift up your eyes to the heavens, and when you see the sun, moon and stars, even all the host of the heavens, you be drawn away and worship them and serve them, things which the Lord your God has allotted to all nations under the whole heavens. (AMP)
“Can’t go with you after all,” my friend said seriously. “My horoscope says it’s not a good day to travel!” She is not alone.

Leviticus 19:26b–neither shall you use magic, omens, or witchcraft [or predict events by horoscope, or signs or lucky days.] (AMP)
