Man and Stars in Lenormand
Man is a man; Stars is hope. Read in that order, the pair says: an inspired man with clear direction.
Reading Man + Stars
The Man is the subject here, and Stars give him hope, direction and inspiration. He may have a clear guiding vision or an ideal he is reaching toward, although that hope can stay unrealistic or distant. In love this can describe a man with long-distance hopes or a romantic ideal; at work, someone following a bright plan rather than a settled situation.
How the order works
Man comes first and supplies the subject: a man. Stars comes second and modifies it: guided by hope. Together: A man guided by hope.
Man is a significator, so this pair describes the querent or their partner directly rather than a passing theme.
Swap them and the sentence changes. Stars + Man begins with hope and direction and ends with through a man — A hopeful man with clear vision
