“Before I die, I want to stare
at the stars with the people I love.”
Yes, "desire" comes
from the Latin, de sideribus, from the stars, as Rei says. Yet before
that, the Greeks had a belief that every single person was given (or born with)
a star. And that star guided their destiny, was their guiding spirit. This is
why the Magi followed the star at Jesus' birth. They were following
"his" star. The word disaster means, literally, to be
de-starred - to lose one's inner guidance, and to therefore fall into chaos.
So equating a love with a star
is to also equate that love with destiny and guidance....a very deep and
intense matter indeed.
Stars are pretty, other
worldly, they twinkle and when you look at the person you like - you see a
similar twinkle in their eye.
Some people adore stars because:
Stars are glittering objects
beyond their reach and they see the object of their affection in the same way.
I love stars.
