In the astrological sense, planets are stars, too. The relative position of the planets is important.

Astrology dates back into antiquity long before telescopes. Stars and planets were just dots in the sky, only difference is that planets move relative to the static stars hence their name (planet means something like wanderer).

I have heard stuff in astrology like "Mars is in the house of Taurus". Don't know what exactly it means but it is very important
