Title: Meaning in the Stars?
Review: The essence of astrology is that there is "meaning" in the stars, e.g. that when Jupiter is in Leo, it means something. Other forms of divination presume to find meaning in other things in nature, e.g. that the arrangement of tea leaves or chicken entrails or the lines in one's palm have some esoteric meaning. These "Gospel in the Stars" books presume to find Biblical meaning in the constellations.In our efforts to "prove all things, hold fast to that which is true," we should be very wary of the notion that a 19th century scholar, using Medieval sources, discovered an antedeluvian prophecy of Jesus in the constellations known to Aratus in 275 B.C. A reader seeking a Scriptural and scientific work on Biblical astronomy should instead read the 1908 work, "The Astronomy of the Bible" by noted solar astronmer E.W. Maunder.
