Everyone else is heretics
You start at the top of the pentagram, because that’s Spirit. You hit the other elements and end at Spirit.
I do it this way because it is the closest to how I was taught to write letters.
Do you write a capital A starting at the top?
yes
No, but upper case BDEFHIJKLPRTUVWXYZ all start at the top.
I write BDFPR from the bottom.
Though I’m also a heretic who starts G from the middle, so don’t listen to me.
thanks sane person
Now we’re talking 👍

This is the only way. What kind of troglodyte starts on an upstroke?
Out of curiosity, how do you write a capital letter A?
Start at the top, go down to the left. Pick up pen. Start at the top, go down to the right. Pick up pen. Go across.
You monster
I hate you
Tsk, true left-to-right writing would do the crossbar second.
Obviously
52413 anyone?
You start with a straight line. It literally makes the most sense cause it decides the size of the star as well.
Any of them are straight lines and decide the size of the star. Some of us are more refined and can handle diagonal sizing.
Weird flex to call someone unrefined for how they draw a star. Not very refined.
For someone on lemy.lol you sure take things too seriously. 😉
Aww cute. Still not gonna just take you being rude though cause you can read.
Bruh, you’re on lemmyshitpost, not lemmybetakenseriously.
Your comedy is lacking.
Yes. I can only imagine Light Yagami doing 52413 in the Death Note
This is the correct order. 5-to-2 sets the width of the star, which is important when writing multiple identical stars next to each other.

Im a lefty, and this is how I draw them.
Really?! 524135
…and does no one go counterclockwise? I would have guessed it was less common and biased towards lefties, but there most be someone, right?
…also, whoever did 13542 is fired.
Yeah FR that bro who went 54 did not draw a fucking star.
Same! It seems the obvious way to do it – starting with the one horizontal line.
I think this or the lefty version would produce the neatest stars.
Yeah I start at the 5, clockwise.
12345 cause I’m a mad bastard
That would be a circle
Pentagon*
I guess yeah you could draw it with straight lines. Not sure why I assumed you wouldnt in retrospect.
How in the world do you go from 5→ 4 and make a star

I had to scroll waaaay to far to find this. Are we rare??
Was about to make the same comment
Finally my people.
I wasn’t aware there was any other way. I’m having an identity crisis over here.
This is the way
Do you write left-handed? I do, and this is my sequence too.
No, I’m right handed
No idea how or when I started doing it this way, but I can’t change now!
Pretty sure my kindergarten teacher and mom both on our team. My fate was long ago sealed.
13542?? Really??
12345 gang rise up!
That’s amazing, that’s the same combination I have on my luggage!
You can’t do 54 that makes no sense.
52413
Left handed?
1 1.5 2 2.5 3 3.5 4 4.5 5 5.5 1
Clean up your stars people, those middle lines are ugly as hell
I am legitimately surprised at how few people start with the horizontal line here. I can never get the damn thing lined up right if I don’t start with the horizontal line.
I’m a native English writer, so I figure that’s why I go Top to Bottom, Left to Right:
