Which maketh Arcturus, Orion, and Pleiades, and the chambers of the south. (Job 9:9)
Canst thou bind the sweet influences of Pleiades, or loose the bands of Orion? Canst thou bring forth Mazzaroth in his season? or canst thou guide Arcturus with his sons? (Job 38:31-32)
For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine. (Isaiah 13:10)
Seek him that maketh the seven stars and Orion, and turneth the shadow of death into the morning, and maketh the day dark with night: that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth: The LORD is his name (Amos 5:8)
Constellations are mentioned in the Bible, and these are four verses mention a few of them. It shows that the people of the Hebrew Bible recognized constellations as representing characters. They also knew that these things were created by God.
So what of those who seek Zodiac signs? “Seek him that maketh the seven stars and Orion” (Amos 5:8). Why seek something inferior and things that cannot hear you?
