The moon indicates spirituality,
sometimes also spiritual Ananda.
The moon as a symbol in
vision signifies usually spirituality in the mind or, simply, the
spiritual consciousness. It can also indicate the flow of spiritual
Ananda (nectar is in the moon according to the old tradition).
It
[the spiritual Mind symbolised by the moon] is Mind in contact with
truths of the spirit and reflecting them. The Sun is the light of the
Truth, the Moon only reflects the light of the Truth – that is the
difference.
The star signifies a creation or formation or
the promise or power of a creation or formation.
The
star is always a promise of the Light to come; the star changes into
a sun when there is the descent of the Light.
Stars indicate
points of light in the ignorant mental consciousness.
Moon =
spiritual light.
Sun = The higher Truth Light.

The sun rising on the horizon is the
direct light of the Divine Truth rising in the being – the ray
upwards opens the being to the Truth as it is above mind, the ray in
front opens it to what we call the cosmic consciousness, it becomes
released from the personal limitation and opens and becomes aware of
the universal mind, universal physical, universal vital. The action
on the heart was the pressure of this Sun on it to have this direct
opening, so that the consciousness may become free, wide and wholly
at peace.
