These were all good books regarding this subject. This is not astrology. The premise is that the Patriarchs of old, who understood the Gospel message (as promised in Genesis 3:15 - that the Seed of the Woman would crush the head of the serpent...), defined the various constellation of stars to record the Gospel Promise fo succeeding generations. From Virgo (the Virgin) to Leo (the Lion of Judah pouncing on Hydra the serpent ... and with the cup of wrath being poured out on Hydra) - this Gospel message was put there for all to see and remember.
The premise can't be proved (or disproved) - as there are no statements in the Bible that state that the Patriarchs defined the Constellations (Zodiac, and the accompanying Decan constellations - a total of 48 constellations) - but between Virgo the Virgin, and Libra the scales, and Scorpio, and the two bound fishes, the fish-goat (the head a dying - as being sacrificed goat; and the tail of a living fish), Aries the sacrificed Ram, etc ... there seems to be a Gospel design in how these Constellations were defined.

Most of these aforementioned books build off of Frances Rolleston's work (a manuscript published in the mid 1800s), but they all provide interesting angles on this study.
