It means it is not fated to happen. From the belief that the position of stars and other objects in the sky can tell a person's fortune.
thank you for your reply,and i have to ask if it is the only meaning of "it is not in the stars"? i mean ,if the "stars" represent the quality? just as you know the 5 stars is the best hotel . so do you think it is possible that "it is not in the stars" means it is not so good in quality??It means it is not fated to happen.

Ok ,I will !Your question has been answered, but can I ask that in future posts you use correct capitalisation. There was not a single capital letter in either of your posts.
Reminder:
Capitalise the first letter of every sentence.
Capitalise the word "I" at all times.
Capitalise the first letter of all proper nouns (William Shakespeare, London Bridge, Manchester United).
Thank you.
No, I think it's unlikely that it has anything to do with a quality rating, I think Dave's answer was the right one.thank you for your reply,and i have to ask if it is the only meaning of "it is not in the stars"? i mean ,if the "stars" represent the quality? just as you know the 5 stars is the best hotel . so do you think it is possible that "it is not in the stars" means it is not so good in quality??

Well, I see! Thank you very much!No, I think it's unlikely that it has anything to do with a quality rating, I think Dave's answer was the right one.
Thank you, I think I get it now.I agree with both the previous replies. It's a reference to astrology. If something is said to be "in the stars" then it means that it is meant/destined to happen.
Some people believe that the stars can foretell the future (astrology), so if they think that something is "in the stars", they mean that it can be "seen" in the astrological configuration of the stars (and planets). If you believe in that sort of thing! :-D
