Tarot for Beginners: A Guide to Psychic Tarot Reading, Real Tarot Card Meanings, and Simple Tarot Spreads (The Divination Series: Tarot, Runes and More)

The Star appears in the Fool’s journey as the calm after the storm kicked up in the events of The Tower card. After the disillusionment comes new clarity, and a breakthrough arises, or an opportunity suddenly becomes available. The Star card is associated with guidance, inspiration, rewards, energy, and alignment with the creative source. While the significance of this card in a reading may relate to past events, the focus is on the future, and faith in the journey as we awaken to the larger patterns of meaning in the Universe. When The Star is upright, it indicates an increased level of inspiration, spirituality, hope, and serenity. You have clarity of purpose and great potential now. You have reached a point where your past experiences enable you to make a dream come true. You are on the right path, using your creativity to cultivate success and happiness. When The Star is reversed, discouragement may be indicated, as well as despair and general lack of faith. A creative or emotional block occurs as something you’ve been tending loses steam. You need direction, but you may not have been listening to the right people. Get back in touch with your inner guidance, and ask for help from those you trust at the gut level.
