STAR DESCRIPTION
When The Star Tarot presents itself in reading it carries great messages of healing and hope – symbolized by the seven yellow stars, the Pleiades. The white star in the middle of the Star Tarot card represents divine guidance and our ability to live connected to that source of Wisdom.
The Star Tarot is the soul initiation that follows The Tower so it makes sense the beautiful maiden depicted in the Star card is nude, showing her state of innocence. There is no sense of self-consciousness or discomfort in her posture. Rather she embodies calm, composure, and tranquility.
From the maiden’s pitchers in the Star Tarot card flows the water of life.
Notice in the Star Tarot she has one knee on the land (Earth-conscious) and a foot on the Water (subconscious). She is perfectly balanced between the two.

UPRIGHT STAR
When the Star card shows up in a Tarot reading upright, the universe has given you a well-deserved play break. Use it and enjoy. When the Star appears, you are likely to find yourself feeling rather inspired and you will be feeling rather more hopeful about the future than you have in a while.
You will also feel more confident that your needs - whether these are emotional or financial needs or both - will be met. Nothing can be taken for granted of course, but it is unlikely that your confidence is misplaced. This is also a very spiritual card and you may find yourself, at least for a time, feeling at one with all of creation. It's not a common feeling so make sure you savor it.

General: This card is definitely a good omen. Although you are probably already inclined to think positively, this is a time to do so specifically. What are the changes that you would like to make or see in your life? Make a list. You can accomplish nearly anything that you set out to do now.
Work: Work should be going very well now if you are settled and content with where you are. Those in a career they want to be in are the most likely to feel this way, but even if it's just a "job" there can still be contentment.If you're not so happy in your current position then this is a time when you can expect new opportunities to come flying into your life.
Love: This is an excellent time to meet someone new if you are in the market for a new relationship. Although it's not impossible that love may simply knock on your door it is more likely that you will need to get out there and mingle.
A new relationship could happen at any time so don't turn down any invitations. If you're already in love and committed then your relationship may well be ready to move to a new level. One that is not only higher but is more fulfilling. Make the most of this opportunity and build on it.
Finances: Again, the Star is a very powerful and positive omen and you are likely to do better financially at this time than you might have first thought. There's certainly a chance of something extra in the air.
This is also a great time to take risks, but only those you can afford. So if stocks and shares are your game then a modest investment may well pay dividends in the future. It may also be a good time to ask for a raise at work.
Health: This should be a fabulous time, health-wise. If you are waiting on test results of some kind, they are likely to be very good results. You'll be calm and inspired. Take good care of yourself.

REVERSED STAR
|
When the Star Tarot card shows up reversed, it is time to Relax. Be patient. Things may be going too slowly for your liking, but this lull is only temporary.
Right now, the universe has pulled the breaks on your rapid progress, because your inner self has some important messages for you – and you’ve been ignoring them. When the Star reversed appears, you are likely to find yourself feeling rather inspired. In many ways, this card indicates the calm after the storm, whether upright or reversed. In reversal, you should still be feeling more hopeful about the future and more confident that your needs - whether these are emotional or financial needs or both - will be met. You will also find that you have good reason to feel optimistic and that your prospects are bright. General: The Star reversed is still a good omen. Look hard at what you are feeling and discern whether, if you looked a little deeper, you could find reasons to be more optimistic and helpful. When this card appears in reverse, often we are tending to look on the darker side. Work: When you draw the Star reversed, it indicates that you may have a lot of powerfully positive opportunities in front of you which you are not seeing. Think about not only how to make the best of the situation you are in now, but also about your ideal situation, e.g. where you want to be work-wise five years from now. Picture your “perfect” scenario, then take steps to make it happen. Love: When reversed, the Star still bodes very well for love relationships, especially existing love relationships. However, there may be a stumbling block on one or both sides which will need to be resolved before the really excellent possibilities for the relationship can come shining through. If you are single and feel that you’re ready for love, again, consider what may be standing in the way of attracting the relationship you want. A new relationship could happen soon. But first, you need to examine and/or eliminate any block. |

Finances: In general this is still a positive omen when reversed, but as with the other contexts, it is very important that you consider what, if any change, may need to be made in order for you to reach your goals. You may discover that you are already on the right track, but also check to see if your goals have changed since you originally made your plans. If you don’t have a financial plan, make one.
Health: Even when The Star appears reversed, this should be a very good time, health-wise. If you are waiting on test results of some kind, they are likely to be very good results. You'll be calm and inspired. Trust in your body’s strength and wisdom.
