| Location | Door 1 |
| Constellation | Bow and Arrow |
| Rewards | Exquisite Chest + Asterism Shard x1 + Strange Star spawns |
The first Astral Puzzle can be found inside the first door inside Mona's domain. It's the first star puzzle that you'll encounter and you're required to complete it to proceed.
In this room, you will find six devices. Hitting the device with any normal attacks will activate it and shoot out a laser. You can also rotate these devices.
Looking up the sky will show a constellation. This constellation's appearance looks like a bow and arrow, which also serves as your hint!
Form the bow and arrow-like constellation to solve the first puzzle. You can view the hint by looking up in the sky.
Solving this will give you a Chest and an Astersim Shard. A Strange Star will spawn as well!

| Rewards | Exquisite Chest |
 Hint #1 |
 Solution #1 |
The first constellation to show up in this room looks like a pronged fork, or a sideways tent. The flow of lights should end to the right star on the center.
The perspective shown on the images above is away from the hint wall.
 Hint #2 |
 Solution #2 |
After completing the first constellation, a second set of stars will show up. This pattern resembles a paper crane. The flow of lights should end on the top right star. Make sure to turn off the top right star as it isn't needed!
The perspective shown on the second images above is away from the hint wall.
 Hint #3 |
 Solution #3 |
The last constellation to solve is the G-shaped pattern. Simply rotate the stars going from top going to center. The central device doesn't need to be turned on.
The perspective shown on the third images above is away from the hint wall. Solving it will spawn an Exquisite Chest, but your journey still hasn't ended here!
You can't solve the pointing arrow constellation with the devices. Instead, the constellation points to a fake wall beside it. Head there and press Touch on the fake wall to move on from here!
 |
|
|---|---|
| Location | Door 1 |
| Constellation | Constellations with Buttons |
| Rewards | Precious Chest + Strange Star spawns |
Beyond the fake wall lies the final Astral Puzzle inside Door 1. It involves four buttons, with stars etched on the floor and the sky. You can also find a Phantasmal Conch nearby!
 Buttons |
 Star-to-Button Assignments |
2x B means that its position occupies two small stars.
The buttons affecting the stars are indicated with the respective letters in the above image. Pressing a button only moves its specific stars.
The perspective shown is facing the sky constellation and buttons.
 Stars Before |
 What It Should Look Like |
The stars written on the floor is the pattern that must be replicated to the stars in the sky.
You will notice that the stars from the default setting (when you first entered the room) has the same position as the final position in the images above.
The trick here is that you're essentially rotating all stars to return to the default position, but the stars will connect differently to look like the constellation hint on the floor.
Buttons |
|
Before Interacting the Buttons |
 After Interacting the Buttons |
2x B means that its position occupies two small stars.
You only need to step on all buttons three times each to solve the third puzzle. This will make the stars revert to their original position. Afterwards, the connections will look different.
If you've already moved the stars with the buttons, refer to the images above to know which stars do the buttons correspond to.
Solving this puzzle unlocks the Precious Chest. Opening it will also spawn a Strange Star, which leads you to a chasm and another Challenge of the Starry Sky. The Puzzles in Door 1 should end here though!
 |
|
|---|---|
| Location | Door 2 |
| Constellation | Triangle in the Sky |
| Rewards | Exquisite Chest + Asterism Shard x1 + Strange Star spawns |
Entering the second door during Mona's main quest greets you with Astral Puzzle 2. This time, the hint isn't as obvious as the first one.
 Star that gives the Hint |
 Hint in the Crack |
When you enter the room, you will notice a star on the wall in the far left side of the room. Pressing Touch on the star will make it move towards a broken crack in the ceiling. Inspecting the hole reveals a triangular constellation, which will be your hint for this puzzle!
Form the devices into a triangular shape to solve the fourth puzzle. You can view the hint by looking up the broken crack in the ceiling.
The perspective shown on the image above is from the entrance. Solving this will give you a Precious Chest and an Astersim Shard. A Strange Star will also spawn, which you'll have to follow.

|
|---|---|
| Location | Door 2 |
| Constellation | Flattened Circle with Two Mechanisms |
| Rewards | Exquisite Chest |
Beyond the Triangle puzzle, you will seemingly come across a dead end. Simply move forward until the fake wall moves. Inside, you will see light devices, a movable wall, and two mechanisms on either sides.
 Mechanism 1 |
 Mechanism 2 |
You will see Mechanism #1 on your right side when entering this room. Interact with this once.
The second mechanism on the left side should now be accessible. Go here and move the wall towards you so that the hint will reveal itself.
Simply rotate each devices so the lights flow in a single direction, like a circle.
The perspective shown on the image above is from the entrance beside the two mechanisms. Solving this will give you an Exquisite Chest.

| Location | Door 2 |
| Constellation | Wavelengths |
| Rewards | Exquisite Chest |
Once you head inside the big room, you will see the following:
Interacting with each of these objects is the key in solving this astral room.
The hint will be shown in the ceiling once you touch the glowing stars on the walls, then place the Asterism Shard on the stand found in the other side of the room. You can do this by doing the following:
| Steps to Get Clue | |
|---|---|
| 1 |  Upon entering the room look immediately to your left. |
| 2 |  Touch the star on the wall. |
| 3 |  When you touch the stars, it will reveal parts of the constellation! |
| 4 |  Get the second clue by jumping on the side of the rooom. |
| 5 |  Get the last clue on the other side of the room by gliding or by crossing with random Mirage Bridges. Offer the Asterism Shard you got from the Triangle Constellation room to the stand. |
| 6 |  Constellation is revealed in the ceiling. |
 Left Side Solution |
 Right Side Solution |
The constellation is shaped like a wavelength. Simply connect the lights from right to left, starting from the entrance.
The perspective shown on the image above is facing the clue on the stars on the ceiling, with the shard stand on your left, and entrance on the right. Solving this will give you an Exquisite Chest.
Mirage bridges will appear as you go around this area, and you'll have to use it to cross the chasm. However, it will disappear when you cross it, so your movements are only limited! Don't worry about falling, as you'll land on an invisible floor anyways!
We recommend using Geo Traveler or Kazuha so you can glide your way easily to the Shard Stand on the other side of the room!

|
|---|---|
| Location | Door 3 |
| Constellation | Running Man |
| Rewards | Exquisite Chest + Asterism Shard x1 + Strange Star spawns |
Inside Door 3, you'll have to complete another Astral Puzzle to continue the domain.
From the entrance, go to the right door and observe the set of stars floating above the water. The constellation resembles a headless running man.
 Solution 1 |
 Solution 2 |
Match the man-shaped constellation with the solutions above to complete this puzzle. Either solutions can work! Make sure to deactivate the endpoint devices as they don't need to be lit up!
 |
|
|---|---|
| Location | Door 3 |
| Constellation | Heart |
| Rewards | Exquisite Chest |
Returning to the passage where the running-man constellation hint was enables you to move forward for more puzzles. Once such puzzle is the half-heart sign on the wall. The key in solving the puzzles inside Door 3 is the reflections of water.
Break the Hydro rock nearby to flood the area. This will make reflections of objects on the water. As a result, the stars on the wall will mirror, creating a heart-like shape.
 Half of Heart |
 Heart Reflected |
With the Heart-shape in full view, rotate all lights counterclockwise so it shoots in a single flow as shown above!
Solving this will give you an Exquisite Chest, but you can continue your journey by going through the fake rock as seen below.
Astral Puzzles in Door 3 end here, but you can still enter the fake wall and solve reflection puzzles to get the other Treasure Chests in the domain!

| Location | Door 4 |
| Constellation | Squid |
| Rewards | Exquisite Chest + Asterism Shard x1 + Strange Star spawns |
Proceed to the fourth door after removing Door 2's lower shard and placing it on this door's upper shard. Inside, you will come across Door 4's Astral Puzzle below the staircase, with a mechanism in the middle.
You can use the mechanism in the room to cycle through constellations in the sky. You can only solve the squid pattern though!
The other constellations will just create a water elevator in front of you for a Common Chest.
Form a squid-shape constellation by using the light devices to solve the puzzle in Door 4. The "head" of the squid should rotate in a circle, while the tentacles should flow towards the middle.
 |
|
|---|---|
| Location | Door 4 |
| Constellation | None |
| Rewards | Exquisite Chest |
Head up the long stairs and enter the room with a Strange Star inside. The star will go up the ceiling and stay there. The goal here is for you to reach the star above by creating mirage bridges from the light devices nearby.
Connecting two light devices will create a mirage bridge under the strange star. The farthest devices from the entrance will create the highest bridges, while the closest will create the lowest. Zig-zagging light devices will also create a slope.
| Steps to Get the Strange Star | |
|---|---|
| 1 |  Light up the devices as shown above. You are free to create other bridges, but this pattern is one of the many solutions you can do to reach the ceiling! |
| 2 |  Bridge to ceiling is created. |
| 3 |  Climb up the bridges and touch the star. |
| 4 |  Star will descend, and the chest will unlock!. |
A large blue constellation circle will appear in the middle once you get the chest. Ascending twice with the platform allows you to get two more Common Chests on each level!

| Location | Main Room |
| Constellation | Mona's Constellation |
| Rewards | Luxurious Chest |
After completing The Ancient Azure Stars quest, return to the pool in the center of the main room. Head down and go inside the Mirage Door. This will transport you back to Mona's room. Interacting with the star globe will lead you to another constellation puzzle.
The hint for this puzzle is Mona herself. You'll have to form the same constellation as you see in her character profile with the buttons nearby.
If this is the first time you've entered the area, press all the four buttons counter-clockwise starting from the south button. You can also return and re-enter to reset everything.
This will open up a door and spawn a Luxurious Chest!
You have to connect the laser devices to match the shape of the given constellation to solve astral and mirage puzzles. The hint for the constellation isn't always shown outright, so you'll have to investigate the confines of the room thoroughly!
Completing Astral Puzzles reveals Treasure Chests, spawn Strange Stars, and get Asterism Shards to unlock the locked mirage doors from the main room!
To activate the device, simply hit it with any normal attack. Doing so will shoot a line towards the device it points to.
You can also rotate these laser devices by simply clicking the Rotate button. Correct laser orientation and flow are the keys in completing these constellation puzzles.
Remember to turn off extra lasers that aren't needed. Some puzzles may not register as a result even if the constellation you made is correct.
You may notice that some of the lights are limited to two or three rotations. Not all laser can connect to each devices, which means that their rotation are only limited.
When you've come to an event where you can't point a specific light to another, simply think backwards, and move the flow somewhere else.

All Asterism Shards are unmissable, as chests containing it are required to be open to continue the main quest. However, you'll have to take Door 2's lower slot if you want to head inside Door 4.
Completing the Squid pattern will give you the a duplicate of the same shard though!
