Unit 6: Tarot - The Star
12:05
The Star -
Rise above your
day-to-day and connect with the divine.
General Meaning
The Star Tarot card is about reconnecting one's soul
with the divine -- the transcending of personality, family, community, and
reputation. It has to do ultimately with the freedom to be one's self. The soul
is responding to celestial influences -- forces that can provide the
personality with a stronger sense of purpose. The Star card helps us to
remember our exalted origins and our attraction to a higher union.
This card could also be called The Celestial Mandate --
that which refers us back to our reason for being, our mission in this
lifetime. The Star reminds us that, in a sense, we are agents of divine will in
our day-to-day lives. If we let go of the idea that we are supposed to be in
control, we can more easily notice and appreciate the synchronicities that are
nudging us along. In this way, we become more conscious of the invisible
helping hand, and we better understand our place within -- and value to -- the
larger cosmos.
In the Advice Position
Your time is better spent in reflection and spiritual
pursuit.
The card in the Advice position suggests a course of
action which will harmonize what you want with what is currently possible.
The Star card advises that you rededicate yourself to
your higher values, increase your spiritual cultivation and meditation
practice, and surrender to the greater good. Connect to your higher self -- a
being of a larger realm traveling on an evolutionary course that started long
ago and runs indefinitely into the future. This is the part you wish to contact
and communicate with.
Now is a period for quiet contemplation. Listen for the
voice within. Anything that would interfere with this communion may not be
serving your best interests right now.
Gems/Crystals
Quartz is the most common stone on the
planet. It is a component of a huge variety of rock types, and comes in an
extensive range of colors and varieties such as agate and jasper. Many colors
of quartz or formations have their own names, such as amethyst for purple
quartz.
Turquoise is perhaps the
oldest stone in man’s history, the talisman of kings, shamans, and warriors. It
is a stone of protection, strong and opaque, yet soothing to the touch, healing
to the eye, as if carved from an azure heaven and slipped to earth. Its unique
shade of blue, often blue-green, lends it name, Turquoise, to all things of
this tranquil hue. The delicate veining or mottled webbing in cream or brown is
inherent to the stone and serves to enhance its character.
One look at Moldavite
and there's no question it is a stone of greatness, etherically carved of
spiritual fire and destined for purpose. This mysterious green talisman is
star-born, formed from nature's violent meteoric impact with Mother Earth.
Etched by force and flame as it fell from the heavens Moldavite returned to the
earth's surface transformed, a glass of amazing delicacy and grace ready to
serve humankind.
The
Tektite is known for raising one’s
vibrations and strengthening the aura, making it a wonderful stone for those
who are working to spiritually advance in this lifetime. One can work with the
Tektite during meditation to expand consciousness beyond current limitations,
and bring deeper insights into current situations or problems.
A most beautiful and powerful crystal of the Violet Ray
energy, Sugilite is a premier “love
stone for this age,” embodying the perfection of Divine love and the
manifestation of this energy on the Earth plane. It brings the gifts of wisdom
and spiritual devotion, helping one to understand that Truth is the highest
form of love, and living in one’s own truth is not only healing but empowering.
Working with, wearing or meditating with Sugilite amplifies the ability to
channel high frequency Violet energy into every aspect of one’s being in order
to walk the Earth in strength and grace. Sugilite reminds the soul of its
reasons for incarnating, and enhances one’s understanding of the lessons which
have been chosen for this journey on the physical realm.
What I want The
Star Tarot to tell
You’re looking towards the future with optimistic perception,
and looking to find some clarity. It’s okay to do things for your own mind to
be at peace.
An inverted Star tells us your becoming very pessimistic, and
your goals are distorted as you feel discouraged.
