nishtdayngesheft, it says עולם כמנהגו נוהג where Hashem gave over the daily functioning to science and nature but certain things can override it. Look at the end of Maseches Shabbos on the argument if we go by the horoscope, mazel by the Jews. The one whose view is we don’t follow the mazel is because tefila, mitzvos and maasim tovim can override it. So assuming is not an apikorsus. The Magen Avraham says not to make kiddush from 6:00 to 7:00 as when Saturn (shabsai) rules over.
The Ramban explains that living in Ch’L is like worshipping a’z. There are 70 nations where each is ruled by a malach who is known as elohim. Hashem, who picked EY is known as Elokei Haelohim. Therefore, there is a tendency to worship a’z in Ch’L thinking that they are in control but they can be overridden as above.
