Stars are often used to represent fate and destiny, and in the past they were used to make predictions about the future. Star-crossed lovers (like Romeo and Juliet) are lovers that cannot be together because of something like fate. The expression 'written in the stars' means that something is meant to be. Someone's lucky star is a star they can make wishes on and is especially for them.
So, the fault in our stars means the fault/mistakes in our destinies and our fates, and the problems that lay in store for us because of fate (represented by the star) and things we have no control over.
If you've read the book then you know what the fault is. :)(less)
