The Star (Reversed) –General meaning
Inverted, this card loses many of its positive connotations. Now shows lack of faith, despair, discouragement, discouragement, sadness.
It is not an extremely negative card, but it indicates that you now see the world in a distorted, dark way and although there may be elements to feel this way, the Star indicates that many times this discouragement is aggravated by our own perception.
You can be making a world for things that are not really that serious, forgetting that you have the ability and strength to overcome and move forward. You must be able to define well what it is that makes you feel this way.
In general, the Star appears when there is a disenchantment with your life, you started things with great enthusiasm but the routines and the tedium of life seem to have installed in you.
It is also very significant for work and profession, when you feel stagnant, that you have made the wrong vocation, that you do not have the expected performance and results. You don’t feel connected to what you do, not in your work, not at home, not in your love and social life.
Although this is a negative scenario, the star card tells you that it may not be as bad as it seems, and that to remedy what is happening to you, you must try to focus, isolate and interpret the problem, assume it in order to improve it or reverse it.
The Star is more about a test of faith than a negative result in itself. The result can be negative if you do not use all your mental and internal capacities to understand that they are normal and natural cycles of life, that many times we need them to grow and learn, to come out stronger than before and you are now wiser with this knowledge and learning.
You may feel now that you are on the wrong path in some aspect of your life, be it in love, at work, in family life, or perhaps in all of them, but you must understand that this situation is momentary, perhaps not so serious and extreme as you live or feel it and that it is a necessary step.
This star is all about your faith, which you must recover because in this way you will get everything to work again.
