Why Are Romeo And Juliet Called Star-cross'd Lovers?

Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    There is a belief that your fate was written in the stars.

    To be star-crossed, means to be ill-fated, unlucky, not favoured by the stars.

    If Romeo and Juliet are star-cross'd lovers their love affair has no hope. They are fated to come to a bad end, which is exactly what happens to them.
