Astrology A Sin? Options

Some of you may notice I'm currently researching lots about the "allowed and not allowed" aspects of magick. More over the "good" or "bad" perspective I'm forced to take being a loyal follower of God and Jesus Christ. This explains why everything I'm involved with now is strictly research. Research and understanding concerning how potentially living and participating a certain area of magick will effect my "good person status" in Gods eyes. I intend to ask questions here a lot regarding things to which I cannot find answers to through other means. I need to listen to arguments that would allow me to make a choice for myself. By the time I have completely gone through it all an established a sort of "end" to these types of questions, there will be enough information on the forum for people in exact situations as mine (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hideingbhindcurtian.gif)
So, unfortunately I've witnessed on several accounts that astrology is a sin. In fact, I've heard that ALL forms of divination are sins and should be completely avoided to stay in God's good graces. As most of you can understand, this has halted my magick research as of now seeing as though Astrology eventually intertwines itself our magick learnings. Again, I have heard lots on the argument of astrology being a sin, I must hear a counterargument to make my own choice. Or I must hear agreements to it being sin. Any help is appreciated as always.

This is much the same as proclaiming "I am God" upon learning the "All is in the ALL, and the ALL is in All."

Not quite, but almost, Genesis 1:27.

We are also of God - that does not mean we can change God.

Incorrect. Surely freewill is not reserved only for people.

Being of existence, the stars, and the earth, does not mean we may change them. The Transcendent Being may have such power, but will recognize the perfection of God's intentional creation of the Cosmos, and will know that it can do no better than that.

I am of dust, yet I can write words in the earth with my fingers. When I die I become dust again. People are part of the earth. People have freewill, whether the placement of stars have influence or not, is only to the point where its part of out environment; this dwells more into science.

Spirituality is ultimately to abstain from materiality and focus entirely on the spiritual existence. If we all focused only on this, we would not last long.

This depends on one's belief; whether spirituality teaches how to manage material things (.....baggage) in one's life (greed,generosity,etc...) or to abstain from it as stated.

Re:Is astrology a sin? Yes. I forgive you though. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I'm tired....I'm going to bed.
