The said astrologer is a spiritual fraud and illiterate.
Indulging in black magic for harming others is considered to bring a lot of negative karma and consequent bondage.
There are good astrologers though too, who can be a source of guidance and information. And I have met some of them. They seem to be highly intuitive and could ferret out facts easily.
Gabriele Blackburn in her autobiographical book, 'The light of Krishnamurti' had written about consulting a gypsy astrologer who had advised her family to leave Holland. Their timely exit prevented them from being arrested by the Nazis ( due to their jewish heritage).
The gypsy astrologer even advised them to cancel a ship travel ticket they had taken for an another one. This cancellation proved to be correct as the said ship was torpedoed by a nazi submarine later on.
