I don't think it credible that the authors of the Sacred Scriptures would be inserting hidden meanings based on the Latin names for select constellations.

It might be more plausible, I think, if you used the Babylonian, Persian or Egyptian, or of course the Hebrew names.

It is the English names I am referring to.

If you look at ‘Libra’ and not see a scale, it is certainly an opinion.

If you look at ‘pisces’ and not see two fish, it is certainly an opinion.

If you see them set at the Feasts (1st and 7th months) in Scripture, and recall Genesis 1:14, there is an awful lot of opinion that would blind one to Scriptural themes set at His Feasts..and why the dates the world chooses instead of Truth, will never lead to Truth.

Most see a bunch of dots up there..with little thought of the story it tells.

Or they buy the horoscope story..

One need not ever read a bible to be shown the gospel.. It is above their heads. Just need to know when and where to look..

That is why wise man knew His ‘star’ appeared..

And why some believe Christianity stole or copied ancient stories/legends.

It’s the opposite. But the ancients weren’t ignorant of a Creator.
Babylon has been in the business of counterfeiting for a long time..

And as knowledge increases, the Bride should not have to guess so much..

The Bible( a couple versions), a concordance and an understanding of His Creation, are tools that can provide Revelation of the Son that will prove the Word (Genesis to Deuteronomy to Malachi) is made flesh.
One needs all of it plus Mathew to Revelation to test and prove all things..
And it puts all religion, Islam,Judaism and Christianity as loving traditions of men..
Unknowingly to them.

The Word Made Flesh wasn’t born on December 25, nor killed on Good Friday.
And Scripture and His Creation can prove those teachings are false..

And that isn’t a little thing.

It was to me too. Until I stopped conforming to the world. Something that He led me to do. It wasn’t something I would see with wordly eyes.

For instance, the very secular America will keep the Father’s 7th Day Sabbath tomorrow by closing offices for MLK day-incredibly and unknowingly- while the very religious Muslims, Jews and Christians rested and kept Holy one of His 6 Work Days..

It is quite a thing to observe!

A world full of babel..

All for His Glory!
