I find the following Puari ( no 8 ) of Vaar 5 of Bhai Gurdass Ji as a good proof that Gurbani specifically rejects superstition & practices based upon astrology . what else can be termed as rejecting astrological superstitions specifically in Gurbani in view of all SPNrs

ਸਉਣ ਸਗੁਨ ਵੀਚਾਰਣੇ ਨਉ ਗ੍ਰਿਹ ਬਾਰਹ ਰਾਸਿ ਵੀਚਾਰਾ ।
saun sagun veechaaranay nau grih baarah raasi veechaaraa|
The life led in the light of omens, the nine planets, the twelve signs of the zodiac;
Line 1
ਕਾਮਣ ਟੂਣੇ ਅਉਸੀਆ ਕਣਸੋਈ ਪਾਸਾਰ ਪਸਾਰਾ ।
kaaman toonay auseeaa kanasoee paasaar pasaaraa|
Incantations, magic divination by lines and by the voice is all futile.
Line 2
ਗਦਹੁ ਕੁਤੇ ਬਿਲੀਆ ਇਲ ਮਲਾਲੀ ਗਿਦੜ ਛਾਰਾ ।
gadahu kutay bileeaa il malaalee gidarh chhaaraa|
Cries of donkeys, dogs, cats, kites, blackbirds and jackals cannot control our lives.
Line 3
ਨਾਰਿ ਪੁਰਖੁ ਪਾਣੀ ਅਗਨਿ ਛਿਕ ਪਦ ਹਿਡਕੀ ਵਰਤਾਰਾ ।
naari purakhu paanee agani chhik pad hidakee varataaraa|
It is superstitious to draw good or bad omens from meeting a widow, a bare headed man, water, fire, sneezing, breaking wind, hiccups;.
Line 4
ਥਿਤਿ ਵਾਰ ਭਦ੍ਰਾ ਭਰਮ ਦਿਸਾ ਸੂਲ ਸਹਸਾ ਸੈਸਾਰਾ ।
diti vaar bhadraa bharam disaa sool sahasaa saisaaraa|
Lunar and week days, lucky-unlucky moments and going or not going in a particular direction
Line 5
ਵਲਛਲ ਕਰਿ ਵਿਸਵਾਸ ਲਖ ਬਹੁ ਚੁਖੀ ਕਿਉ ਰਵੈ ਭਤਾਰਾ ।
valachhal kari visavaas|akh bahu chukhee kiu ravai bhataaraa|
If a women behaves like a prostitute and does every thing to please everybody, how can she be loved by her husband.
Line 6
ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਸੁਖ ਫਲੁ ਪਾਰ ਉਤਾਰਾ ॥੮॥
guramukhi sukh dhalu paar utaaraa ॥8॥
The gurmukhs who reject all superstitions enjoy happiness with their Lord and get across the world-ocean.
