Two lovers who were blindly deceived by gazing at the stars in the skies rather then looking at the situation with both feet on the ground, from William Shakespeare's " Romeo and Juliet".

It means that the stars don't look favourably on their relationship, or that they are unsuited to be together. The most famous pair of star crossed lovers were Romeo and Juliet in Shakespeare's play. In this play the couple came from warring families who hated eachother, and their relationship was despised.

I believe this phrase was coined by Shakespear, and means two people who are indeed in love , but destined for some ill fate because of that love.

That means they were meant for each other.
