Sinti, The Guiding Star, The Lost Constellation, The Inky Night
Sinti is worshipped by many seafarers, but particularly the Vandoori, who have an innate connection to the stars that they use for navigation. Sinti is the goddess of starlight and is seen by some to be the twin sister of Wa-Sha, the two being the primary forces that guide sailors to their destination - or not.
Others have been know to view Sinti as the dark gaps between stars, representing knowledge and unknown - a gateway between the broadly accepted gods depicted in these writings, and the darker powers worshipped openly in the East.
Divine Symbols & Sigils
The "star of stars" symbol depicted in the upper right is often seen alongside variations on flags and carved into the prow of masts.
Simple symbols associated with Sinti are usually small stars of various shapes worn in jewellery or tattoos.
Tenets of Faith
Sinti is a benevolent goddess in most people's eyes, and through contemplative worship provides guidance and knowledge.
Others worship Sinti in a different way, taking "contemplative" to the extreme and engaging in long arduous acts of meditation in pursuit of hidden knowledge and enlightenment. The most successful, and rarest, of these individuals belong to The Ashram of Starlight, a monastic order that treads the line between black magic and divine gift.
