100% this

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.

[–] spankmonkey@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (8 children)

I do it this way because it is the closest to how I was taught to write letters.

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.

[–] pennomi@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago

Yeah I start at the 5, clockwise.

[–] moonlight@fedia.io 6 points 1 day ago

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.

You start with a straight line. It literally makes the most sense cause it decides the size of the star as well.

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.

[–] spicehoarder@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 day ago

I like this method because it let's me angle the star however I want

This is the only way. What kind of troglodyte starts on an upstroke?

[–] ALilOff@lemmy.world 18 points 1 day ago

How in the world do you go from 5→ 4 and make a star

The order is what is bothering you guys not that the Pentagons sides aren't equal length and the triangle leans right?

13524 (1)

I think the op medium- level comment is just a typo of this, otherwise wtf is 13542?

And I'm shocked I'm the first one to say this, surely this is by far the most common way?

I thought this was a bolt tightening pattern and wondered why anyone cared where they started.

I'm a native English writer, so I figure that's why I go Top to Bottom, Left to Right:
