The Goal Is Now Yours
What you have strived for, persevered for is now within reach. Claim your prize, it's yours. The symbol of The Mountain in Star Journey stands for this personal fulfillment, of high attainment through steady progress toward a goal. Now, you've reached the mountain top. You are above the dust, the struggle, and the toil. You've reached the crest, and here is the goal. Be glad, and be proud of your attainment.
Hatch That Great Idea!
In all of us are ideas and ways of being that are not quite ready to come out. What we show instead is something like The Egg symbol in Star Journey. There is something new in you alright, and others sense it as potentials and preparing, something unborn, perhaps still fragile. Keep going with that process of developing then birthing what is inside you. Go ahead, hatch that great idea. We're out here waiting. And we want to see what you've got!
Express The Magic That Is You!
Within you are strengths and abilities that may surprise even you. The Magician is the symbol in Star Journey that describes inner qualities of being adept and ingenious. They may appear to you as simple, everyday acts, like how you cook, how you drive, how you give a friend guidance or support, or how you love. Others recognize your ease in doing these things. They are touched and inspired. Tap into the parts of you that express your own magic, your uniqueness. This enriches others and helps guide you forward.
Yours Is the Sight...and The Vision
Seeing is an amazing quality of the human mind. In Star Journey, the symbol of The Eye represents an inherent "gift of self" which is both perceiving and vision. Not only do we see in the world in order to navigate and make our way, we see by perception of all kinds. Things exist because we see, touch, smell and even sense. It's all part of knowing the world, and we do it automatically. Then too, we can cast our gaze, or have foresight, and imagine and envision. All this takes seeing to a new level, where one's gaze becomes vision, giving shape to what is ahead. This gift is yours: to perceive and have vision.
Your Knowledge and Feelings Have Power
Within us all is a treasure trove of knowing. In Star Journey, the symbol of The Chest tells of expressing to others that there are inner thoughts, knowledge and feelings that only we have known. We can choose to keep these to ourselves, and appear reserved. Or we can see the power that thoughts and feelings truly have, and opt to not lock them up. They can be expressed in ways that are wise and constructive. Hold on to feelings that are special to you, yet express the power of thoughts within.
Be Cool, Calm and Collected
Let others see the part of you that remains unruffled by life's surprises. Be the one who is cool, calm and collected. In Star Journey, the symbol of The Swan stands for this way we choose to act in the world, in this case appearing serene whether the waters of life are calm or not. Others will pick up on this elegant composure and feel encouraged to do the same. Keep your cool. It helps others maintain theirs!
Dance Among Life's Rhythms
First up, then down. Go this way, then that way. Start, no, now wait. The changing energies of life. We vibrate between poles of duality in almost everything we do. Life keeps moving, changing, and we adjust. A basic energy of existing is symbolized by the Star of Indecision in Star Journey. This stands for the weighing of differences, sometimes of opposites, as though walking a tightrope. On the wide spectrum of energies around you, be the Dancer. Look on one side, then another, find balance and even dance among life's many rhythms.
You Are What You Do -- Express Yourself!
Be courageous. Display your intent and vitality. Express yourself to the world! The Sword is the symbol in Star Journey that stands for this inner approach, the strength of self-expression. True expression is pure. It takes its own stand and makes it own way in the world. Be proud of who and what you are. Extend and express yourself, and others will feel the power of your own clarity.
Use the Gift of Experience
The phrase "been there, done that" says the past is behind you, and your'e ready for something new. Remember that having been there gives you experience, which you can apply to new endeavors. The Wheel is a symbol in Star Journey that recognizes one's gift of experience, your advantage of knowing the past and using it to shape the future. The wheel of life turns, it brings experience, then it moves onward. Build on valuable lessons of the past, and move into the future you desire.
Come Out, WHOever You Are!
In the child's game Hide and Seek they say: "Come out, come out, wherever you are!" Now you are challenged to be whoever you are inside. The symbol of The Mask in Star Journey is a transforming idea about identity. We all tend to wear masks to shape identities for others to see us. Acting the mature parent, or the helpful friend, the rebellious child, the comforter, all these can be masks of the true you. Your true individuality is entirely transparent. You don't have to act any special way to be you. Keep this in mind, letting the real you be the star in life's play!
