How can I help my niece understand spiritual warfare and how reading horoscopes can open her life to Satan's power?

She is 15 and lives out of state, I know she goes to church with her mom, not sure of her salvation. She started posting horoscopes on her facebook and I encouraged her to think about how that could be opening her up to Satan's power in her life, but I don't think she understands because she wants to keep posting them until school starts, "for something to do".

I’ve asked my friends what they think, and they look at me like I’m from a different planet. Curious Dear Curious: Satan would have a hard time getting people to follow him if he revealed all his evil. Instead, he gives us small doses of evil—over a period of time—until we’re so desensitized to it that it seems a normal part of life. Horoscopes originate from seeking guidance from the stars—which is seeking direction from a false god. Why trust the stars when you can trust the One who made the stars? Your direction is right. Continue looking to the heavens for guidance. But look to God—not the stars." Source(s): Taken from Dear Susie by Susie Shellenbeger found in the January SUSIE Magazine.

Your direction is right. Continue looking to the heavens for guidance. But look to God—not the stars."
