Description
Description: While the Tower is the lightning blast that shocks us into anguish and despair, the Star is the fire of hope and inspiration that can warm our hearts on even the coldest nights. Representing the magickal spark and boundless spirit that resides within the world and within us as well, the Star encourages us to make a wish. It takes more than wishes to make dreams come true, of course, but without a little hope and belief, one's chances are slim. The Star is the goddess of light, life, and love, and to gain her blessing, one has only to dream.

Visual Description
A tall, robed woman stands barefoot at the center of a quiet plain beneath a violet night sky. She pours water from two ornate pitchers, one stream falling to a pool at her feet and the other sprinkling onto the earth, where small flowers and grasses grow. A large eight-pointed star shines directly above her head with several smaller stars scattered across the sky; she wears gold collar and headdress with Egyptian motifs.
