The Star is one of my absolute favourite archetypes in the Tarot. It is the spark of light in the depths of the mystery of darkness the message of hope, no matter what the present circumstances are. The Star to me entices us, draws us to keep going, and echoes a knowing within each of us that we have a knowing of what the next step is ALWAYS. It is a breakthrough in our consciousness, that little crack of light, finding its way into our minds, even when we can’t imagine a time when things will improve. That’s the mystery of dark and light, yin and yang. They cannot exist without each other. From the darkness and mystery of yin, yang spontaneously emerges, rising up like a shooting star! The Star depicts the light of hope ever constant, ever guiding us. Hope keeps us moving, and when we’re moving, there is energy for our hearts to work with. If you’ve been feeling depressed, and unable to imagine a better time to come, try even imagining a star in your third eye chakra in the middle of your forehead. Let it roll around as you gently breathe in and out. Your deepest heart will feel the familiar sensation of that light in your mind, and will respond.
