The Star
The Star tarot card symbolizes healing, inspiration, and unity with the Universe, following the destruction symbolized by The Tower. It represents true magical beginnings, generosity, and the birth of compassion towards oneself and others. Freedom, hope, and the potential for new, positive perspectives bloom from this card. It's a reminder of the soul's capabilities and the opportunities available after an energetic cleansing. However, it also warns against the illusion of perpetual pleasure and using others for self-justification.

Archetype of Healing
Unity with the Universe is your natural state. After the Tower has fallen, the Twilight Witch traverses through its smoldering debris to find a vast body of water. Under a clear sky, she disrobes and sits on the shore, overwhelmed with the desire to bathe in the moonlight. Touching the water's surface with her toe, she leans back against the roots of an old tree and looks up at the sky. The Star is the open, expansive space that emerges after the Tower has crumbled away the unnecessary. It's a source of inspiration accessible only after true energetic cleansing, symbolizing freedom and reminding you of the possibilities even when your vision is clouded.
Card of Life and Unity
The Star represents opportunities, life, and unity. It is the fertile ground where true magic grows. The card's generosity births the ability to show kindness to oneself and others. Exultation lifts you up, like a bright balloon filled with helium, as sensations of warmth, life, and openness flood the body, making it receptive to all that is new. This state allows good ideas to grow and thrive. Unexpected opportunities, thrilling prospects, or solutions beyond your wildest dreams become accessible to you. The Star, in its nakedness, symbolizes a conscious decision to relinquish control, being vulnerable yet active. Heavenly light pours down from above, intertwining the artist and the muse, signifying unity with water, earth, and sky, as well as freedom of action. The Devil's grip weakens, and your soul is set free. The Tower has cleared the space, radiating hope, freedom, and pleasure.
