How different is the attitude of those who consult horoscopes, making personal plans based on charts
drawn up that look to the position of the stars at the hour of their birth? Their soul determines the
goals they seek. They merely look to the stars to inform them of the most auspicious time to pursue
their personal ambitions. The astrology of Satan appeals to the flesh and soul of man, while the stellar
prophecy of Yahweh speaks to man’s spirit.

Like the enchantments and sorceries that Isaiah mentions, astrology is a form of manipulation. Its goal
is to use the creation, other people, and even God Himself, for one’s personal profit. By aligning their
actions with the stars, men and women believe they might somehow induce the creation (and by
extension, the Creator) to do their bidding and to accomplish their pleasure. Like witchcraft,
Luciferian astrology begins with man at the center and seeks to bring about man’s will on the earth.
All that is divine and originates from Yahweh begins with God at the center. Christians should look
to the testimony of the heavens to know what Yahweh has determined to do in their day, that they
might align themselves with His will and desires.

In the book Dragon Flood, I shared that the construction of all of the government buildings in
Washington, D.C., began with a Masonic cornerstone laying ceremony where grain and oil were
offered to Baal. Before any of these ceremonies took place, a horoscope was cast to determine the
most auspicious time to lay the cornerstone. It was believed that the influences of the heavens could
be drawn upon to insure the success of the labor that men were entering into. Following is an excerpt
from the book Dragon Flood.

David Ovason in his insightful and exceptionally well documented book The Secret Architecture of
Our Nation’s Capital has demonstrated quite convincingly that Washington, D.C. was designed as
a Masonic city. Ovason is writing from the viewpoint of a man much learned in the esoteric rites and
symbols of ancient mysteries. Ovason is an teacher of astrology by trade, understanding the ancient
practice of casting horoscopes to determine auspicious days in which nation’s would begin new
works. His understanding of arcane lore is revealed in his book...

In his book on the secret architecture of Washington, D.C., Ovason explains the significance of
casting a horoscope to determine the optimal time for beginning various works such as laying the
cornerstone for important national buildings. Ovason writes the following:

The formal laying of a cornerstone was no new thing, even in America. It was already a ritual
sanctified by Masonic tradition, a throwback to an age when it was believed that all human activities
were overseen by the gods. In essence, the cornerstone ceremonial was designed not only to gain the
approval of the spiritual beings, but also to ensure that these were content that the building was being
brought into the world at the right time. That is one reason why it was commonplace for those
designing cornerstone rituals to examine the time of the ceremonial in the light of astrology.

Although Ovason has discovered none of the horoscopes that were cast to determine the dates on
which events took place in the Nation’s Capital, he has examined the dates and times and drawn up
the horoscopes himself. His conclusion is that “We must assume that whoever was directing the
planning of Washington, D.C... had a considerable knowledge of astrology...”
