The allies used astrology to calculate Hitler's lucky dates to forsee when he would move. Did that make the lucky dates unlucky?

Which dates?

Some of them must have worked out, the Nazis did spread themselves quite far across Europe.

Somehow I doubt more sophisticated use of astrology is what tipped the scales in Allied favour.

It was quite late in the war that they realised Hitler was using astrology and it was then that they used it to track him, and things started to go wrong for him. They were not using astrology but they were using his beleif in astrology against him

The germans used astrology also, it was predicted they would achieve early victories but suffer defeats after 1942.

When ever they would launch an attack, they would consult astrologers first.

Makes sense why there attacks normally started well, but slowed down later.

Hitler sent most of the astrologers to concentration camps because he felt his staff were starting to rely on them to much.
