A woman kneels before the edge of clear pool with only the vastness of the starry night sky to illuminate her.
In her left hand she empties out a jug into the shinning pool, and in her right she uses the water to nourish the lush ground, which trickles back into the main water source representing a sense of reciprocity and respect to both the earth and the water which she draws from.
This is The Star our pull for the week here and while she’s a figure in Tarot who has become synonymous with the ideas surrounding hope and renewal she is not inactive when it comes to water the ground beneath her.
With that said let’s discuss this latest pull in greater depth down below, where we can really get up close and personal with the guidance this card has to offer.
Keywords for the Star
✦ Hope is Taking Action
✦ Nurturing Your Dreams
✦ Fueling Your Vision
Advice from the Star
Hope is not a weak or idle force.
It won’t stand there waiting for the world to change or get better. Hope acts weather you like it or not.
It must be watered like a seed, ignited like a wildfire, and anchored like a ship. Hope does not exist out of thin air and if it does you’ll be much more likely to lose it. It’s a lot of work to maintain hope, but that is the keyword here “maintain”.
Just look at the imagery on The Star card: the woman pours water onto the earth, and it flows back into the large pool she draws from. It’s a perpetual cycle of giving and receiving. Of cultivating that which she hopes to grow.
This week I want you to consider: how you can nurture the seeds of hope within yourself?
Because we can’t expect hope to simply sustain itself off of nothing. Simply wishing for change won't bring it. Hope isn’t passive it is a being that moves freely within us like a muscle that only strengthens with time.
This is why hope gives way to the first step, and every step after, creating an almost addictive chain reaction of watching all your seeds sprout from the ground simultaneously.
So:
What dreams do you want to pour into?
What seeds are ready for your tender-loving care?
What blooms do you long to see rise beneath your feet?
As hope is the beginning of your renewal and your reunion with self.
It is both fed by action and the fuel for it. So, if you're dreaming of a better world, a better life, or a kinder way of being—don’t just wish on the brightest star. Pour one out for the altar and place of prayer that is your dreams.
