![]() Nautical Star: Before modern navigation, sailors navigated by using the stars-usually the North Star.These sailors often got tattoos of nautical stars or 'compass stars' for superstitious reasons, hoping that the star would help guide their way through the night and get them home safely. It is now a symbol of protection, guidance, and good luck. Some see nautical stars as a symbolic reminder for creating one's own path or navigating through a certain point in one's life. The nautical star tattoo has also become popular among Navy Seal and Coast Guard members.
