It's interesting and more than obvious, to notice, if you study all these subjects: Astrology, Astronomy and Mythology, that they are all linked.
The indo-european gods are essentially the same, with different interpretations. And even when they are different, the main ones are still linked to both an astrological sign, and a planet.
It's interesting to notice that the characteristics associated to each god, are the same that are present in the astral chart of its sign. Also, the god or goddess is linked, as mentioned, to a planet.
In Roman Mythology, it can't be missed. Mars, Jupiter, Venus, etc. The gods and the planets are the same, and have the same name.
Could the gods be a personification of the planets, and other astral bodies, like the moon? A way for us to be able to understand them better, and to feel somewhat, more connected to them? It seems to be like that.
For example, the god Mars (in Roman terminology) is associated to the sign Aries (name of the exact same god, but in Greek mythology)
Well, Aries is one of the 12 astrological signs, and it is related to warfare and battle. Such are some of the characteristics of the natives of this sign. They never say no to a fight. And Mars is the planet that rules them.
All this is connected.
Are the gods, in fact, the planets? Logic seems to point that way. And, studying Astrology, one will soon realize that, and again, logically, the planets influence our own lives, and who we are.
The interesting question here, is to debate what kind of bodies, of beings, are the planets, and other astral bodies. What are their natures, and what is really going on within them. Of course, we are only humans, and we become confused when we need to deal with creatures that are not phyisically related to us. Like trees, for example. Who also have their own form of sensibility, and intelligence.
Our bodies are only the receptacle. Our essences, came from the cosmos. Regardless the body they will occupy, if you like.
So, of course, we are dealing with realities that happen, also, outside our physical realm. Those energies, including our own, they are here, by our side, but cannot be touched, or seen, or understood. At least, that easilly, and with the same tools =)

It's also curious and relevant to mention that Jesus had 12 apostles. Some theories say that each one of them, belonged to a different and specific astrological sign. In the end, Jesus might have been someone very close and influenced by heathen religions, and their wisdom. Such as astrology. That also makes sense, since he rebelled against classic Judaism, and hence, he had to be close to other teachings, and ways of perceiving spirituality, and the cosmos. It's already well known that he drank a lot out of the Buddhist fountain, for example.

I'd very much like to know more about it
