Adepts in genuine archaic astrology know the peculiar qualities of the various stars and the influences they shed around them, and therefore likewise on earth and man; the tattered remnants of this knowledge have been handed down to modern astrologers. One branch concerns worship of the genii of the stars, the star-angles or -rishis especially -- because of a certain occult mystery -- the seven of the Great Bear. All entities, whether worlds or men, have each its own parent-star or mahadhyani-buddha; but this does not refer to the dominant star in merely natal astrology. There is an analogy and intimate connection between the celestial hierarchies of orbs and the hierarchies of human principles, for every star we see is one globe of a chain of six or eleven other star-globes, just as our earth is one globe of a planetary chain. Thus our sun is the visible representative of a solar or stellar chain, of which only the most physicalized, concreted globe is visible to us as our day-star. Every star or sun is the imbodiment of a conscious living being, pursuing its own pathways of destiny, and most intimately bound together not only with its own planetary family but with all the other stars and suns in the galaxy to which it belongs. This fact was the real basis of the wide diffusion of what is popularly called sun worship.

Star
Your time is better spent in reflection and spiritual pursuit.
The Star advises that you increase your spiritual cultivation and meditation. Surrender to the greater good. Rededicate yourself to your higher values. Do whatever will increase your sense of oneness with the great chain of being, the evolutionary course that runs from the past through the present into the future. You know yourself as a creature of a larger realm. Don’t allow inconsequential routines to steal this communion from you.
An alternate title for this card is “Celestial Mandate” - that which refers us back to our reason for being, our mission in this lifetime. This arcanum reminds us that, in a sense, we each are Secret Agents, enacting the Divine Will through our moment-to-moment lives. If we let go of the idea that we are supposed to be in control of our lives every minute, we can study and reflect upon the synchronicities that are nudging us along. Thus we become conscious of the invisible helping hand, and we better understand our place within, and value to, the larger cosmos.
Divinatory meanings: Hope. Faith. Inspiration. Bright prospects. Mixing of the past and present. Promising opportunity. Optimism. Good omen. Spiritual love. Ascending star. Astrological influence. Accumulation of past knowledge for use in the present. Results will soon come from energies expended. Fulfillment. Satisfaction. The proper balancing of desire and work, hope and effort, love and expression. A favorable card suggesting that desire and energy are essential to happiness.
Reversed meanings: Unfulfilled hopes. Disappointment. Pessimism. Bad luck. Lack of opportunity. Stubbornness. Imbalance. Conclusion of an unsatisfactory business experience or friendship.

Star
A ball of mostly hydrogen and helium gas that shines extremely brightly. Our Sun is a star. A star is so massive that its core is extremely dense and hot. At the high stellar core temperatures, atoms move so fast that they sometimes stick to other atoms when they collide with them, forming more massive atoms and releasing a great amount of energy. This process is known as nuclear fusion. Scientists have not yet been able to use nuclear fusion as a power source here on earth, but they are trying!

More Information

Star
A celestial object which shines through the release ofenergy created by nuclear fusion in its core. A star can also be the hot stellar remnant left following cessation of fusion processes. Stars are classified according to spectral type and placed into luminosity classes. Half of them are in either binary star systems or multiple star systems. Some are variable stars and change their size and luminosity. Stars which do not accrete enough matter to begin fusion are called brown dwarfs. Remnants of dead stars are white dwarfs, neutron stars and black holes. Stars assemble into collections known as galaxies.
