The energy The Star
Energy 17 is a positive arcana, like the 19th — only you can spoil it. At its heart it’s about professionalism: you become the best in your field because you want to give the world your best work, and the fame follows from that. You can and should declare yourself to the world — media, social networks, television.
Popularity comes to those who learn to interact with society. It isn’t only the reward for skill; sometimes it arrives before that, when you fall into the same current as the consciousness of large groups of people — when you don’t go against them or impose. People are drawn to you when you’re understandable. And nothing comes for free: you passed the trials, you got the glory.
Be firm with yourself: you must not live as a “grey mouse” without goals or ambition. You need a bright, interesting life and a crowd of people around you — refusing that is going into minus. Acknowledge and develop your own talent, and help others realize theirs. And before you help the world, get your own feet under you: distance yourself from others’ problems until your own are resolved.
The Star in plus
- a person marked by fate and a lucky star
- a desire to perfect yourself in your chosen field
- responsiveness, selflessness, idealism; love of humanity
- rich imagination, dreaminess, inspiration
- a brilliant education and purity of aspirations
- living by a dream while keeping your feet on the ground
The Star in minus (the shadow)
- pessimism, sluggishness — missing good chances
- blaming everyone but yourself for failures
- narcissism and “star fever,” or the flip side — doubting your talent
- a faded star trying to bring back former success
- envy of those who are realized; plagiarism, undeserved fame
- refusing to communicate — no social presence, dwelling in despondency
In your love line
As the center of your relationship channel: in plus, you draw a vivid, creative partner active in society — self-assured, attractive, who loves being in public. In minus, you attract someone self-fixated, constantly drawing attention (sometimes through negative acts) and raising his own self-esteem by devaluing you — chronically insecure underneath.
In your money line
As the center of your financial channel, money comes from realizing your talent, from popularity and professionalism, from “stars on your shoulder-boards.” Spend on developing that professionalism, on personal PR, on your social media and advertising. Favorable fields: astrology and astronomy, work with celebrities, styling and makeup, design and planning, theater and creative work, ecology.

See what's insideAs your karmic lesson
If 17 is your soul’s main lesson, the past held real talent spoiled by conceit and “star sickness.” The work: control your envy of others’ abilities and your criticism of their achievements.
The karmic tail
A named karmic tail can center here too — “Ruined talent,” key 6/17/11. If it’s yours, the past either “caught a star” and exalted itself above others, or held many talents and lived a dull life without revealing them. This life is outwardly very attractive but tempted toward the safe, ordinary path. The lesson: identify and reveal your talent, keep moving, “shine like a star,” and don’t sacrifice the gift for a quiet life.
What to do with it
- Become the genuine best in your field — the fame follows the work.
- Declare yourself: use media and social networks, don’t hide.
- Refuse the “grey mouse” life — ambition here is the energy in plus.
- Get your own feet under you before you take on others’ problems.
