The nautical star, isnt that the 5-pointed star?

Also known as the pentram or pentacle and has a great many different meanings, but the probable origin is related to the planet Venus, a feminine symbol.

Venus is the third brightest object in the sky, besides the sun and the moon. When viewed from Earth, successive inferior conjunctions of Venus plot a nearly perfect pentagram shape around the zodiac every eight years.

I think you have astromony confused with astrology. Astronomy is the scientific study of things such as stars, galaxies, nebulas, black holes ,and the likes. Astrology is a form of mysticism that professes the belief that the position of the stars and planets decides one's personality, influences ones life, and tells one's future.
