Short description
What jugs are drawn on the Zvezda map - large or small? Waite writes about the big ones. Marcus Katz and Tali Goodwin believe that the map depicts small jars. They see this as an indication of inconsistency between Waite and Pamela Smith.
It seems to me that the size of the jugs is not very important for this map.
With the exception of a few details, the design of the card is virtually identical to the design of the card in the Marseille Tarot, although the card is believed to be drawn using the symbolism adopted by the Order of the Golden Dawn.
A lot of discussion was caused by a strange bird, which we can see on the card from the Marseille Tarot, and on the Waite Tarot, and on the Golden Dawn Tarot. Papus connects it with the ibis, which, in turn, is an avatar of the Egyptian god Thoth, the unofficial patron of the Tarot.
And if on the Star from Waite’s deck there is some resemblance to an ibis, then in the Tarot of Marseilles and in the Tarot of the Golden Dawn it is rather an abstract bird.
Interestingly, the Golden Dawn documents mention how Mathers described the background of this map. Instead of a bird, he mentions “Psyche’s butterfly.”
The butterfly can be seen on Oswald Wirth's deck, where it symbolizes the soul.
Personally, to me, a butterfly, as a symbol of the soul, seems much more appropriate on the Star card than an ibis, as a symbol of Thoth.

Basic meaning
According to Waite, "some primitive interpreters" mistakenly perceived this card as a card of hope. According to Arthur Edward Waite, who knows the most intimate truths, the Flaming Star card corresponds to the mottos “Free-flowing Waters of Life” and “Gifts of the Spirit.” But this is not the real meaning and interpretation of the Star (Hope) Tarot card. He writes: “She is the Great Mother, the Sephira Binach of the Kabbalists, who is the highest Mind for those who belong to the lower Sephiroth and are able to perceive her rays.”
Again we must turn to an additional chapter where Waite gives clearer meanings for the cards. In the upright position, he views the card extremely negatively - losses, thefts, deprivations. But he mentions that in another source it is a card of hope and brilliant opportunity. And the inverted 17th Arcana of the Tarot - Star - Waite describes the meaning as arrogance, pride and lack of opportunity.
Waite's pathetic meanings remained the property of history. Today, the Star card is still a card of hope. But it also has new meanings. The Star card has become a card of communication, positive communication, positive emotional contacts. However, it retained its negative aspect, as an indication of possible theft.

The meaning of the card in relationships
Open - hole card
The card can manifest itself both externally and internally. On the outside, it denotes communication between people. And here she shows herself, easily enters into communication and is able to maintain a dialogue on almost any topic.
The internal level is associated with illusions and hopes. The emotional vessel is full. External relationships are often perceived as a threat to one's own fantasies. A person is not particularly eager to share his illusions with others. On the contrary, it is more pleasant for him to experience them alone, thereby emphasizing his “specialness.”
Relationship intensity
In the case of communication between people, the card indicates a high intensity of relationships, and we are talking about pleasant emotions, sympathy, and good mood.
Relationship scenario: love, family, relatives, work
Tarot star - meaning in love and relationships - this is the origin of sympathy, the origin of love, the very beginning of a relationship. Relationships at the level of ideas that have not yet moved to the physical level. Already touching, but not yet hugging.
This is something that pornography lacks compared to romance or at least erotica.
A star is almost always present at the onset of love or romantic relationships. Its absence often reduces relationships to primitive physiology. A star is usually a manifestation of tenderness and care, sympathy and affection. Informal communication. People have something to talk about, regardless of social status or age, and they do it with interest, enjoying the dialogue.
In combination with the Major Arcana
- with card: the combination Star - Hermit Tarot suggests that these cards have a common meaning - theft
- with a map: everything will be fine
- with card: Star and World Tarot combination of cards is the best of all possible in Tarot. "Dreams Come True"
Psychological condition
This is hope, and usually hope for the best. The map does not indicate how strong the foundations for these hopes are. That is, on the one hand, this is positive thinking as a stabilizing factor, and on the other hand, this is infantilism and rose-colored glasses.
A large percentage of psychiatrists’ patients are people captivated by the ideas of “Stars,” fans of the film “The Secret,” and adepts of visualization with affirmations, out of touch with the earth. “Confused” citizens who have forgotten about grounding.
In combination with the suit of Wands
- in combination with the card: hopes for favorable changes
- in combination with a card: look into the future with confidence
- in combination with a card: in a large family, don’t click your beak
Importance in health matters
Tarot star meaning in health, on the one hand, indicates good health. And if your health was bad before, then there is a possibility of improvement. On the other hand, the Star indicates infantile behavior, an escape from reality. Possible problems with alcoholism. Reading the card greatly depends on which cards are nearby. The card also places special emphasis on positive communication, positive emotional contacts, psychological support, which greatly influences physical healing.
In combination with the suit of Cups
- in combination with the card: good relationships with loved ones
- in combination with a card: you have a very favorable chance
- in combination with a map: a great time to start moving up
Business and finance, professional activities
Stability, controllability, controllability
The Tarot star's meaning in work suggests that this lasso has nothing to do directly with business. From the point of view of control and management, it is dual. When it comes to communication, communications are a more or less manageable map. But with the meaning “hope” it is almost a conscious departure from control, immersion in illusion.
It is easier to pretend that everything is in the hands of God or the Higher Powers than to take responsibility.
Ways to Increase Income (Key to Increasing Income)
Learn to conduct a dialogue, enter into communicative contact. Improving communication skills and speech culture, on the one hand, and selling products that facilitate communication (from hearing aids to alcohol).
Interestingly, the very concept of “chat” is a great product. If a consultation with a professional psychologist is the Priestess, then the Star is a version of kitchen psychotherapy. This is not always a deception, but almost always an instillation of hope, often false. But at this stage more is not needed. Selling the belief that everything will be fine. Creating a special comfortable environment. What is the difference between wellness and oriental massage? In the second case, people go for pleasure, a pleasant conversation about the “universal”, for energetic and emotional strokes.
In essence, this is the sale of illusions in a nice package - but good illusions, not dangerous in small quantities. Like passive training in a vacuum suit: lie there, foolishly, thinking that you are losing weight.
General state of finances and trends of changes
The person on this card sleeps deeply and sees rosy dreams. Whatever his financial situation, he experiences illusions about it. He just doesn’t know how much money he has, doesn’t plan either income or expenses. Euphoria, how justified is it?
But the card is essentially very pleasant, friendly, lulling with its rosy hopes, and the person most likely will not wake up on his own. Neighboring cards will show what prospects the Star has. In itself, it says that your hopes are at odds with reality, your expectations are greatly inflated.
Positive and negative impact of the card on income
A chatterbox is a godsend for a spy. The inability to control the flow of words and the naive belief that you need to live with your heart: how many people later suffered from their gullibility. But Zvezda has a very short stressful period. Optimism that helps you get through difficult times. Consciously put on pink and blue glasses, like Dandelion Dandelion, and detach yourself from external problems. Write down what you see in your fantasy world in a notebook and publish it as comics or a script for an anime.
Or you can use the need for communication (with clients, business partners) as a commodity: negotiations, promotions, consulting.

Questions to ask when drawing the 17th Arcana?
- What are you hoping for?
- Who do you enjoy communicating with, on what topics and why?
- How well are you protected from theft?
- Is there any reason for your dreams to come true?
The Tarot Star card most often has a favorable meaning. It is a symbol of positive, new, rebirth, hope. The star may foretell the appearance of true friends, the birth of love. Let's consider the meaning of this card in detail.
The meaning of the card in a relationship reading
The Star card in the tarot can have both favorable and negative meanings in relationships. For example:
- If you rely on Fate and do not work on the relationship, leaving everything to chance, your union is doomed to parting. There is no need to hope that everything will work out on its own
- In the reversed position, the Tarot Star has the following meaning in relationships: your connection with your partner is very strong and durable. There is a chance to build long-term relationships that will be happy and harmonious
- If the card fell on the part of one of the partners, this means that he is not satisfied with the current relationship. He wants more, now he doesn’t get enough attention or anything else from his other half
- If the five-pointed symbol appears along with the Hanged Man card, it means that your partner does not live up to the ideal that you drew in your fantasies. You dream that he will become better, but this is impossible.
- In combination with the Priestess card, the Star indicates that the union has united two creative and very talented people. But the catch is that the partners are completely unsuited for real life. They are impractical: they are idealists and dreamers
