Christian Zodiac?!
Question: Does anyone have a SHORT SUMMARY of the Christian Zodiac, where the signs symbolize the age old promise of redemption?
from psalm 19
The heavens declare the glory of God;
the skies proclaim the work of His hands.
Day after day they pour forth speech;
night after night they display knowledge
...their voice goes out into all the earth,
their words to the ends of the world.

There's actually not any "Christian Zodiac"... The psalms are from the Old Testament, which is actually Hebrew, or retroactively, Judeo-Christian.
Likewise... it's the exact same as the Western Zodiac. The Jewish/Christian association is just in broader/more mathematical meanings of the signs. It's very much tied in with Numerology... each number has a corresponding sign, color, etc... And vice versa.
Sun Angel has a short rundown... a little schmaltzy, but it's short and concise. If you need more, just do a search.

EDIT: I've studied Judaism, Christianity, etc... and I've never seen anything relating to the Gospel, aside from vague symbolism/metaphors. Once again, I think what you're looking for is the Judeo-Christian perspective (which was also furthered by many Gnostics), which identifies the Zodiac signs with Creation and the course of man of earth. The world was created in Leo (Sphynx... it's believed the great Sphynx is facing the direction the constellation was when the Earth was first created), and man's rise and fall was in Scorpio (the serpent). It's important to point out that, according Jewish mysticism, Gnosticism, etc... that Adam & Eve's "fall" is actually considered a good thing, since, though they unleashed famine, disease, hate, etc... they also unleashed love, compassion, charity, etc... It was that moment that Adam and Eve were actually IN LOVE... before, they didn't even know what love was.
There are various other markers in the course of history (Biblical and real) associated with the signs... but nothing for just the Gospels, as far as I know. Christ is, however, associated with Pisces.
We keep ourselves a mystery but we provide the clues.
