The stars are depressing because people are not able to see the starry nights and dream about other possibilities. "The depressing stars had travelled quite some way across the heavens. But though the separating screen of the sky-signs had now to a great extent dissolved, the two young people still retained their happy ignorance of the night" (Huxley, 88). The stars represent something that is unachievable. Something that is unobtainable. The stars represent dreams that are unreachable.
