errr.... not under the connotation you want...
The stars are there.
People look up and see figures, then they make up stories about the interaction of these figures and how they move in the (night) sky.... sometimes, they even take into account the year-long motion.
From these stories, mythologies were created.
Mythologies gave rise to religions...
Religions put down the stories as something truthful.... completely separated from the astrological source... and the rest is history.
