Astronomy is a branch of science that deals with the study of (non-earth) celestial bodies in the universe, such as stars, planets, nebulae, and galaxies.

Astrology is based on the belief that celestial bodies influence human lives. It isn't regarded as a science (more as a pseudo-science).

Both astronomy and Astrology deal with the study of celestial bodies.

Is astrological symbol and astronomy symbol is the same?

Astronomy and astrology were the same thing before the modern era, because predictive and divinatory knowledge was one of the motivating factors for astronomical observation. Astronomy is simply the observation and measurement of celestial bodies, while astrology is an attempt to find some sort of "meaning" or "influence" in the planetary positions. The interesting thing is that astrology gave birth to astronomy. Oddly enough, considering that astrology has to do with planetary movements, astrologers no longer look at the sky, and haven't for hundreds of years.
