Why Name a Star as a Gift?
A star gift works because it ties a name and a date to a real point in the sky - the recipient gets a certificate, a personal message, and a personal star page they can revisit any time. It works for birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, and as a memorial in someone's name - anywhere a tangible keepsake matters more than another card.
Who Should You Buy a Star For?
A star gift works for a partner, parent, child, friend, or anyone who values a personal keepsake over a generic present. It's most common as a birthday gift tied to the recipient's zodiac sign, an anniversary or wedding gift, a memorial in someone's name, and a Mother's Day or graduation gift.

How to Buy a Star Online
Pick a star gift package, choose a constellation (any of the 12 zodiac signs - Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces - or another visible constellation), enter the star name, add a personal message, choose your design, and complete your order. Digital orders are delivered by email, while printed packages are prepared and shipped as physical keepsakes.
What Does It Mean to Adopt a Star?
To adopt a star is to create a symbolic dedication in someone’s name. The star name is recorded in the AstraName Database and paired with a certificate, star map, and personal star page. The name is not a scientific designation - the IAU does not recognize names from private registries - but the star and its coordinates are real.
