There is a magic and wonder about the stars and many of us are familiar with the phrase 'wish upon a star'.

What would you wish for right now? If you were to wish for it, would you believe it could ever come true?

I wanted to share with you the magic I have experienced by focusing on The Star card when it has come up in my readings.

Wishing upon a star is at the heart of The Star card's meaning, it is a card of optimism, hope and unexpected gifts. When this magical card comes up in a reading for you it heralds a time of more positive opportunities and happy outcomes.

This card is welcome almost anywhere in a reading as it is a good indication that your wishes will be fulfilled, sometimes not always as we would expect, and this card can bring one or more unexpected gifts your way.

When it appears it can mean you are being too negative or pessimistic and encourages you to have more hope and optimism in your heart and mind, hence why I asked the question earlier - if you did make a wish would you believe it could come true?

I have wished upon The Star card many times and my spirits always feel lifted when it appears in my readings. I recall in early spring of last year making a wish to be given an opportunity to work with the Tarot with as many people as possible, sharing a gift that was mutually beneficial for my clients and myself.

It was a big dream and a big wish for at that time I couldn't see how I could achieve it, but I did BELIEVE I would - then in May of last year I met David the talented webmaster of Lotus Tarot and as they say, the rest is
history :-)

The Star card has been a frequent feature in my readings for most of the last year and I know why, because I have received so many unexpected surprises and gifts not just in money and material things, but also friendships and love.

If you haven't taken much notice of this card before, look out for it now, and when it comes up, make your wish!! Remember a wish made with hope and belief can bring so much more power and magic to it.

Well, that's it for the Star! I hope these brief notes about the individual cards help you to get more value out of your readings.
