Pretty sure astrology was adopted from greeks, so no, there is no Hindu basis. It has backfired on Hindus plenty of times, such as 3rd battle of panipat (unless someone can repudiate this, I have read about it plenty of times). Who knows where else it screwed Hindus over.
Astrology should be relegated to carnivals and fairs, away from the forefront of Hindu life and activity. Otherwise we can be a laughing stock of the world, like MM Joshi and his moronic insistence that it be treated as a science course.
