There was a pretty important qoute you forgot from the manga.

'I wonder...when did it become a curse?'

'God' never wanted to curse them in the first place, that wasn't the intention. So long as the zodiac kept as a loving family everyone was happy. It was only until they started thinking of it as a curse that things started going bad.

Their were signs the curse was already weakening with time anyway - take Hatori for example, his meant to be a dragon but because of the curse weakening his now a seahorse. Same with the Rooster leaving the zodiac first.
