Astraeus, the “starry one” is the god of the stars and twilight, that magical moment at dusk when the stars and planets emerge. Ad astra is the Latin word for stars and constellations. Stars have long been symbols of dreams, magic and mysteries. They are one of the earliest symbols for guidance, and enlightenment, the light to lead you thru the dark.
Thru out time, people of all traditions around the world have looked up to the stars for guidance and prayer, to send their wishes to realms above in hopes that there is someone listening.
- per aspera ad astra- only through hardship can one reach the stars....
