Jupiter in Sagittarius: Astrology and Religion – What is the Jewish View of Astrology?
Outtakes and Various Other Sundries
From Ask Rabbi Simmons:
What is the Jewish view of astrology?
Rabbi Shraga Simmons writes:
“The Bible takes a strong negative stand on Astrology. Yet, Kabbalah, the ancient Jewish mystical tradition, has sources that are based on astrological principles.
In Genesis 1:14 it says, “God said, ‘There shall be lights in the heavenly sky to divide between day and night. They shall serve as omens and define festivals, days and years.’” Early commentaries say that “omens” refers to how the stars and planets affect out lives. Therefore, based on the necessity for fixing the Hebrew calendar, and an understanding that stars and planets affect events it is clear that early wise men had an astrological outlook.”
