After a high-mass star explodes as supernova and leaves a core behind, the core would become a neutron star or a black hole. If the core is less than 3 solar masses, it would become a neutron star; if the mass exceeds 3 solar masses, the core would continue to collapse, forming a black hole.
Natal horological astrology - predicting the future by the arrangement of stars and planets at the moment of your birth - is entirely fraudulent. There is NO connection between your fate and the stars.
The fate of a star depends not so much on its size (diameter), but on its mass.Low-mass stars (up to about 1.4 times the mass of our Sun) will become white dwarves. Above that, and the star will become a neutron star. Somewhere between 2-3 solar masses another limit is reached, where a neutron star isn't stable; instead, the star becomes a black hole. The masses mentioned refer to the mass that remains once the star runs out of energy.
A main sequence star can evolve into a neutron star, pulsar, or black hole depending on its initial mass and the processes it undergoes during its lifecycle. Stars with masses between about 8 and 20 times that of the Sun typically end their lives as neutron stars after a supernova explosion, while more massive stars, above approximately 20 solar masses, can collapse directly into black holes. Pulsars are a type of neutron star that emits beams of radiation due to rapid rotation and strong magnetic fields, which occur when the core collapses and the star's angular momentum is conserved. The fate of the star is determined by the balance between gravitational forces and the energy produced in nuclear fusion during its lifetime.
The mass of a star is the fundamental quality that indicates its ultimate fate. A star's mass determines whether it will end its life as a white dwarf, neutron star, or black hole. More massive stars are likely to undergo supernova explosions and collapse into neutron stars or black holes, while lower-mass stars will evolve into white dwarfs.
Stars can end their lives in different ways depending on their size. Small stars like the Sun will eventually become a white dwarf, while larger stars can explode in a supernova and leave behind a neutron star or black hole. The remnants of dead stars can continue to evolve and interact with their surroundings in various ways.

The planets, moon and stars can be
They don't.
They represent the worldview that we have no control over fate.
Their youth or immaturity (bad decisions) caused their fate not the stars..
There is only one star in our solar system (our sun) and it will burn out in roughly 4.5 or 5 billion years. There will be a remnant left, but it will no longer provide light and heat. Its ultimate fate depends on how the universe is developing.
Stars means astrology, fate, our predetermined destiny. Romeo believes that fate has got in the way of his happiness ("I am Fortune's Fool"), and the Prologue confirms this idea ("star-crossed lovers"). In saying "I defy you, stars" Romeo says that he will fight against what appears to be his predetermined fate.
This line is representative of the apparent dichotomy in many (if not all) of Shakespeare's tragedies: free will versus fate. By cursing the stars, Romeo is expressing his independence by saying that he is in charge of his own life and is not ruled not by some predetermined course of events. The truly tragic part of this exclamation is that we, as readers, know that Romeo is mistaken and that the events that befall him were going to happen no matter what and that he was destined to fall in love and come to a tragic end. Specifically, Romeo says this when he receives the news that Juliet is dead. He feels that fate (the stars) have struck him the cruelest possible blow, and he is going to defy the stars by committing suicide and joining Juliet in death. That, and it also makes reference to the beginning of the play, where they're referred to as "star-crossed lovers," which is admittedly also a statement of its being fate-oriented, but "I defy you, stars!" would be a reference to the stars being symbolic of fate as they were in the description of the "lovers" early on.
In Beowulf, the significance is that Grendel will soon meet his fate.
Mass decides a stars ultimate fate.
