Celestial movements affect all of us; it's just that the occultists realize it and use it to their advantage. Symbology and numerology, too. These things aren't inherently "evil," it's just that as they say, "knowledge is power," and the original meaning of the word "occult" is "secret; not divulged." (https://www.etymonline.com/word/occult) So our fear of looking at these "socially taboo" topics (which is deliberately cultivated by such groups) allows us to be "kept in the dark" while the ill-intentioned ones take full advantage of the undeniable impact that these forces and symbols still have upon the subconscious minds of humans and the energies on Earth. Partly because what we believe creates the reality that we live in--that is why they are so desperate to control the narrative at any cost.

One of their favorite tactics is inversion: they flip things upside down to bastardize their true meanings and to corrupt the goodness such symbols originally invoked in peoples' hearts. So, Satanists flip the Pentagram (a pagan symbol which also mimics the celestial path of the planet Venus: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentagram#Pentagram_of_Venus) upside down to "invert" the positive meanings of the symbol, and they flip the Christian cross upside down as well for the same reason. Those who worship the wicked god Moloch appropriated the bull icon from the sun god Mithra (of the Mithras cult), who was worshiped widely in ancient times; the Molochians are mocking and defiling Mithra's reverence for bulls with their sick perverted ceremonies.

I think it's also why the name "ISIS" was used to represent a violent terrorist group: in order to bastardize the name of the ancient Egyptian mother goddess Isis, and to cause her name to be associated with negative feelings and concepts--just one example among many.
