Tending Radiance
The Star
“We die on the day when our lives cease to be illuminated by the steady radiance of a wonder, the source of which is beyond all reason.”
- Dag Hammarskjold

The Star asks how you are tending radiance?
In her recent Loving Well course, Tara Mohr, a coach and teacher, talked about ‘tending radiance’ and that being radiant means “sending out light.”
The Star is a card that sends out light on discovery, hope, wisdom, and deeper relationships. It shows that we are designing or launching actions that go far into the future and whose positive development can be rightly hoped for. At this early stage, we are often not yet aware of the far-reaching effects of our actions. It is only by looking back at the events that it becomes clear how decisive the change of direction The Star was at that time.
A person who knows about horror and despair is the noted Sierra Leone author Ishmael Beah, who was captured and forced to be a child soldier in the endless civil wars in West Africa. He says, “Even in chaos and madness, there’s still a beauty that comes from just the vibrancy, the radiance, of another human spirit.”
How are you tending to radiance? With yourself? With others? In this world full of so much anger and hate—and hope?
