Lights Up The Night

"Make a wish, because your plans will soon take form. If you've fallen out of touch with your faith or forgotten what your purpose is, take a moment to re-imagine it. Ask yourself what it is that you love or what makes you most happy. Find your dharma and infuse it into the seemingly mundane parts of your life. A sense of purpose makes anything you do meaningful. Share your splendor with others. As you rekindle your own light, you inspire others to shine theirs. Don't be afraid to ask for help; people you know want to support you."

"The unclothed woman represents both purity and vulnerability. The pitchers are symbols of potential and this scene of the woman releasing their contents underscores how The Star card rewards those who are generous at this moment in their life. When we give, we create energy – represented here by the ripples and the streams. The gold star dominating the scene lights up the night in a magical way that the sun never could. In this starlight, vulnerable and pure, giving and genuflecting, the woman will see the world so differently that it will inspire her to create something that is different. This inspiration to create is the manifestation of hope that is the core energy released by The Star card. When we have hope, we have something to live for, somewhere to move towards, someone to love – even if it is ourselves.
If there is a downside to all of this, it is that The Star card is a quintessentially impractical card. The idealism expressed in all of this card's symbols is not solid enough to assist one to feed a family or earn a living. Remember that The Star is otherworldly – the concerns of this world are not arranged in the same priority. A fantastic inspiration is something that has no basis in reality. We must work to incorporate our visions of how the world should be with the reality of the way the world is.

The Star may have left you broke and in debt with all of your hopes for success now expressed in complex philosophy instead of brilliant masterpieces."


"Is your partner allowing you room to be yourself because you bring so much to the relationship?


When this card appears in the future position of a reading, expect big changes to come about as you gain expertise. Where you are now in your life may one day be looked back on as your "apprentice" period."


"A better future is waiting for you but in order to reach it you must trust that it is indeed possible."
