Every men and women is a star, but the star has potential to become a bright one or dying and dead one depending on their spritual fullfillment in life. I am using the astronomical stars in this simile rather than star in other sense. Not sure if they are be relevant, but Astronomy used to be one of my hobbies, and I can relate the Crowley's star and Astronomical stars very well.
Great! Then we have a way of explaining it to you.
Now, those stars that are dead or dying, or being born and growing ... are they all in that state; one or the other ... or are stars 'born', grow have a certain life span for different stars, 'die' a different way depending on what type of star they are, and dissipate, reform or supernova also depending on type.
You have used the analogy of stages of life to types of people and types of wills.
Even us as 'stars' are born, grow old and die .... Thelemites are not immortal and just stay in one state , the same as stars don't do that.
As there are billions and billions of stars, there are different people in their sprituality. Crowley wanted us to be brighter star shining above the sky, not the dying ones or dead ones. If one is not spritual or materialist, then he is a dying or dead star forgotten and invisible.
One becomes a brighter star, when one follows the law of Thelema. Do what thou wilt shall be the law.
Again, it is just my understanding, could be wrong. But it makes sense to me at the moment.
That's like saying Crowley didn't want us to be like the old people in the nursing home .
