This study examines the reception of the teaching on astrology of Augustine of Hippo and Thomas Aquinas in the bull Coeli et terrae of Sixtus V. If Sixtus V borrows complete extracts from the Summa Theologiae, he changes their meaning radically, preferring to the ideas of Thomas Aquinas the positions defended nine centuries earlier by Augustine of Hippo. According to Sixtus V, divinatory astrology, as with every practice of necromancy, is always the fruit of demonic inspiration, deceptive with respect to scientific matters and dangerous regarding the religious and moral domain.
