Answer:

Based off this Emerson quote....

Emerson claims that stars are similar to dreams by stating they are inaccessible?

Step-by-step explanation:

" The stars awaken a certain reverence, because they always present, they are inaccessible; but all natural objects make a kindred impression, where the mind is open to their influence?"

Emerson relates to a theme of nature (as he is a Transcendentalist) suggesting that we become one with the stars- you can imply this as an afterlife situation or in reverence with dreams. Stars are always in the sky, sometimes they are visible other times they are not. However it is always true that stars are inaccessible because one can actually touch a star (in a literal sense). Its unknowing whether or not a dream will become a reality- the future is always up in the air. Nature reflects our inner selves as suggested by Emerson... when we acknowledge and accept correspondence aka difficulties life has etched in our paths only then will we be able to benefit from the beauty and gifts nature offers. (acknowledgement allows you to see the stars plastered in the sky; ignorance shields the stars in the sky).

Emerson and Transcendentalists rely specifically on the fate of nature and further do not believe in created dreams... hoping mother nature will always guide them in the right direction.

I'm sorry if this wasn't what you were looking for.
