Astrology is not a science. Astrology is a religious belief system (something which is taken on faith) that the position of the stars and planets at the time of a person's birth controls their personality and destiny,
Despite numerous studies into things like do marriages of people of so-called compatible signs last longer than marriages of people of incompatible signs (no) or can a group of astrologers reliably assign twelve people to their respective signs (no better than chance), people continue to believe in astronomy.
Astronomy has some real problems even in concept. For example, the path that the Sun takes across the sky is divided into twelve signs of equal length, despite the fact that some constellations are quite a bit bigger than others. For example, the Sun spends 42 days in the constellation of Scorpio. Also, the Sun passes through 13 constellations, not 12.
Another thing is that when the ancient Greeks came up with the concept of astrology, the vernal equinox was in the direction of Aries. However the Earth precesses--it's axis wobbles with respect to the rest of the galaxy--and the vernal equinox is now in the constellation of Pisces. As a result, there is about a 10% chance that your "sun sign" actually corresponds to the constellation that the Sun is in when you are born.

I like this take on the subject. I prefer to believe the Word of God over the superstition of the astrologers.
Significance of the Twelve Signs From A
Christian Perspective:
Virgo: The seed of the woman
Speaks of Christ as the incarnate Son
of God who will be 100% Divine and
100% human (Genesis 3:15)
Libra: The Required Price Paid
Relates to Christ as the Redeemer
who paid the full price of sin.
(Isaiah 53)
Scorpio: The Mortal Conflict
Set forth Christ as wounded for our
transgressions, and the bruising of
Christ's heel as necessary for victory
over satan. (11 Corinthians 5:21)
Sagittarius: The Final Triumph
Portrays Christ, the God-man, as the
victor over sin and satan.
(1 John 3:8)
Capricornus: Life out of Death
Illustrates that through Christ's
death for our sins we are made
spiritually alive. (John 12:24)
Aquarius: Blessing out Of Victory
Speaks of the joy of God's Spirit
poured out on His people as the
fruit of Jesus' victory. (John 7:37)
Pisces: Deliverance Out Of Bondage
Foretells of God's deliverance of
people of all nations from the slavery
of sin into the Glorius light of His
love through the preaching of the
Gospel. (Matthew 4:18-19)
Aries: Glory Out Of Humiliation
Illustrates how, although Christ was
humbled and slain as "the Lamb of
God." He has been raised from the
dead and made the Ruler of all
creation. (Revelation 5:12)
Taurus: His Glorius Coming
Foretells that Christ will come in
judgement like a rampaging bull
upon the sinful world.
(Isaiah 34:2-8)
Gemini: His Union With His Bride
Speaks of Christ's fellowship with
His people in His Eternal Kingdom.
(1 Thessalonians 4:17)
Cancer: His Possessions Held Secure
Assures us of God's fulfillment of
His promise that He will have a
great Kingdom filled with a
multitude of people from every race,
tribe, and nation. (Genesis 22:17)
Leo: His Enemies Destroyed
Prophetically assures us that Jesus
Christ shall be victorious over sin,
the world, and satan.
(Revelation 5:5)
This came out of a book called The Real
Meaning of the Zodiac, written by
D. James Kennedy, PH.D.
I hope you all enjoyed learning that
everything that God has created sings
of His Glory !!! Halleluiah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
