1 Back in the day sailors would tattoo nautical stars on them because they relied on the stars to take them home. 2  So in that case the star would be a symbol of guidance. 3  Now as time has passed the nautical stars represent the direction of ones life. 4  If it's pointed upward they have a higher outlook on life and so on. The nautical star is a navigating device used by sailors, and travelers. 2  It has also become a symbol of the sea, and of all forms of navigation. 3  The Nautical Star is an Irish symbol for good health. 4  It was first brought into practice by the Pagans that inhabitaed Iriland in the 1700's.
