Would these two cards together emphasize their positive attributes or bring out more of their negative connotations? Also, would the Star tend to strengthen (protect) the nine if the nine was ill-dignified by proximity?
Why would you think that together they'd bring out negative aspects? I'm just wondering where that thought came from, as it would never occur to me to read these cards, together, as somehow undermining each other's positive elements..traveller. said:Would these two cards together emphasize their positive attributes or bring out more of their negative connotations?

If the 9 cups was reversed then the Star would give hope that the bad aspects could be overcome given time.
Is that what you meant?

I would read them together as saying that personal fulfillment, and present contentment (and/or the support and love of family and friends) is having a healing effect, and offering hope for the future.
9/Cups is also, sometimes, read as a card about good health and healing, so you could read the two together as a very positive message about getting over any physical/psychological or emotional wounds/illnesses.
