Wish upon a Star | Name a Star with GettingPersonal.co.uk

13 October 2009

If you find yourself often doing as dreamers do and wishing upon a star, then you will believe in the power and magic of the stars in the sky - why not harness that magic and name a star?! Stars glitter down on us from on high - shining day and night (although we cannot see them in when the sun is out) and many people use them as symbols, guides, for astrology and even like to name a particular star so they are reminded of a particular person or event each time they gaze upon the night sky. Did you know, though, that you can truly name stars and forever have a shining, twinkling beacon in the sky with the name of a loved one? Very few of the stars we can see in the sky have their own names - most stars are completely nameless and can only be distinguished officially from one and other by their unique catalogue number, which is assigned by the International Astronomical Union. You and I, however, can purchase the right to name a star exactly what we wish - it doesn't have to be a name, of course, but many choose to show how much they care for someone by naming a star after them.
Choosing to name a star is easy and each star is completely unique - just like the special person you are naming it after. This star is registered on the Intergalactic Star Database and once chosen the name it will be stored on their database for eternity. This is also, arguably, a great way to achieve some form of immortality, if only just in a name! It is possible to buy a 'kit' that lets you name a star and these often come with a variety of extra goodies, which makes naming a star for someone a fantastic gift. If you really want to treat someone special, why not try the 'Deluxe Name a Star Gift Box'? This wonderful novelty gift is not only great fun and different, but really shows you care and is suitable for any occasion; be it birthdays, weddings (what better than a star or stars named after the happy couple), christenings or even the arrival of a new baby. Naming a star after a new baby is a lovely way to congratulate the new parents, as well as providing the child with a thoughtful and ever-lasting gift in their honour. The Deluxe Name a Star Gift Box comes in a beautiful presentation box and includes a framed personalised certificate with the co-ordinates and location of the star you have named, as well as a handy Star Chart and Plani-sphere so you can easily locate the star in the sky at night - great for pointing out your star to friends and family. In addition to that, the lucky name a star recipient will also receive an introduction letter to explain the gift and its significance and a starter pack on astronomy, which includes a book on the night sky.

Of course, stars are also often associated with romance - watching the stars together, wishing on a shooting star and that 'touching the stars' feeling we often get when we fall in love. The heartsick and head-over-heels often wish to 'take the stars from the sky' as a gift to prove their love for the object of their desire and they can get as close as we can with a name a star pack. With the 'Name a Star Lovers Special' you can name two stars after the one you love, or name it after the both of your together so you will never be apart. The 'Name a Star Lovers Special' is presented in a gift box, which includes some wonderful gifts and keep-sakes and once you have chose the names of your stars you will receive a certificate of the two star names and their unique database numbers, which can be placed in the included frame. In addition, the pack contains to co-ordinate sheets which show the exact location of your stars, a guide to the northern constellations a sky chart and star plotter and even an educational astronomy starter pack. Finally, the pack contains two chocolate hearts, which never come close to lasting as long as the stars! This wonderfully romantic gift is absolutely perfect in expressing your love - be it when you meet someone, on Valentine's Day, for an anniversary, your loved ones birthday or even just to show you love them with no occasion needed - as surely you should need no reason to treat that special someone. So, why not name a star to wish upon - perhaps it will make your, or theirs, dreams come true!
