For signs and for seasons

[MoreCoffee]

Can you think of examples from the holy scriptures where the stars served as signs (excluding the star that the wise men followed)?

 

[Lamb]

Genesis 1:14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years: KJV

Not all versions say "signs" for this verse though:
NAB says: Then God said: Let there be lights in the dome of the sky, to separate day from night. Let them mark the seasons, the days and the years,

 

[psalms 91]

I will stick with KJV

Job 38:31 Canst thou bind the sweet influences of Pleiades, or loose the bands of Orion?

We know you can't but when God does... look up, God is trying to get your attention.

Is that astrology? "sweet influences"?

astronomy... gravitational pulls.

How is that sweet?

How is that sweet?

It is not strong enough to cause collision just a gentle hold.

Returning to the topic and avoiding entanglements in astronomy and astrology. What passage or passages of holy scripture speak of the stars as signs (the star of Bethlehem excepted)?

 

[visionary]

Luke 21:25 There will be signs in the sun, moon and stars. On the earth, nations will be in anguish and perplexity at the roaring and tossing of the sea.

The moon turned to blood and the sun not giving light?

 

[psalms 91]

The moon turned to blood and the sun not giving light?

That is part of end times, during the tribulation

I suppose it is signs in the heavens but I am not convinced that it answers the first post's question.

Now in case you are who this Ophiuchus is, Ophiuchus is real constellation of stars that exists along the same pathway as the zodiac.

Its name is from the Greek Ὀφιοῦχος "serpent-bearer", and it is commonly represented as a man grasping the snake that is represented by the constellation Serpens.​ Interesting that this serpent-bearer is the 13th constellation. In mythology, Ophiucus is identified with the healer Asclepius, the son of Apollo, who was able to bring the dead back to life. Realizing his power, Hades convinced Zeus to kill Asclepius with a lightning bolt, and he was placed into the stars as a constellation after his death.

The constellation, Ophiuchus, has been known since ancient times, and is better known as Serpentarius, the Serpent Holder. It is included in the list of 48 constellations described by Ptolemy. Ophiuchus is depicted as a man handling a serpent; his body dividing the large snake into two parts, giving way to the symbol used today as an Asclepius – the medical staff. Yeah, that same sorcery of pharmica that Revelation talks about.

Astrologers have not included Ophiuchus in the wheel of Astrological signs because the Sun spends only about nineteen days in this 13th sign of the Mazzaroth. Not that there wasn’t a 13th sign in the Heavens, but as far as Astrologers were concerned, the Sun traveled from the constellation ‘Scorpius’ and then proceeded directly into the sign of Sagittarius. In reality, this was not the case. The Sun, for 19 days of the year, travels through the star constellation ‘Ophiuchus’ before entering Sagittarius from Scorpius thus The sign of Ophiuchus is patterned after the original ‘Serpent Holder’, Enki, a Sumerian god.​

Nasa doesn't care about astrology:

Constellations and the Calendar
Did you recently hear that NASA changed the zodiac signs? Nope, we definitely didn’t…

…Here at NASA, we study astronomy, not astrology. We didn’t change any zodiac signs, we just did the math. Here are the details:

First Things First: Astrology is NOT Astronomy…

Astronomy is the scientific study of everything in outer space. Astronomers and other scientists know that stars many light years away have no effect on the ordinary activities of humans on Earth.

Astrology is something else. It’s not science. No one has shown that astrology can be used to predict the future or describe what people are like based on their birth dates.

Never said they cared much but just enough to determine 13 signs and assign date time frames.

Do you think the stars serve as astrological signs?

Do you think the stars serve as astrological signs?

When 1/3 of the stars fall from the sky, or as rolled up.. YES

 

[visionary]

For the next upcoming event... September 30th, a new moon will rise in the sky, the second one to fall in September as the last one occurred back on the first of the month. Whenever this happens, two new moons within one single month, the second one is called a Black Moon or maybe you have heard it called Blue Moon. Black and Blue Moons occur at minimum in 32 months or years later. Does that mean anything in relationship to scriptural prophecies... not that I know of... just thought you might like to know.
