'May the Fourth Be With You' - Happy Star Wars Day! Best wishes and quotes for the fans of this franchise

Send Push
Jedi and their allies have assembled once again!

On May 4, not just the chosen ones, but all the "Star Wars" characters are here to repeat the words in unison – “May the force be with you.”

And not to defy that calling, but to celebrate the ‘big day’, it’s become the unofficial Star Wars Day chant – "May the Fourth be with you."

On May 4, that phrase — or some variation of it — will be repeated several times (and rightfully so) in celebration of the Star Wars universe and what it means to fans like Kristen Lee Ohanyan, the creator of Star Wars Enthusiasts of Houston, a community where people of all ages share their passion for the space saga in a positive space.

As the fictional Star Wars universe has seeped into the very real realms of our lives (from belonging to fandoms to creating fanfictions), May Fourth has become a sort of ‘sacred’ day all around the world to celebrate the aspects of good versus evil, the power of hope, and the cyclical nature of conflict and redemption within a galactic setting.

Let’s take a look!

What is Star Wars Day?
Star Wars Day is a day for fans to express their enthusiasm, connect with the Star Wars community, and enjoy all things related to the saga.

The Star Wars universe has been known to utilize archetypal hero's journey tropes, including a quest for knowledge and self-discovery, and often touches upon political and philosophical ideas.

While the core conflict revolves around the struggle between the light-side Jedi Order and the dark-side Sith, who exploit the Force for selfish gain, the Rebel Alliance, led by characters like Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia, fights against the tyrannical Galactic Empire, representing the hope for a better future. The possibility of redemption is explored through the characters' journeys, particularly Luke's relationship with Darth Vader.

The films often follow the classic hero's journey, where a protagonist (like Luke) undergoes trials and tribulations to achieve a greater goal and ultimately save the galaxy. While the Force is a metaphysical power that connects all living beings in the galaxy, influencing their destiny and abilities, the Galactic Empire's tyranny and the Rebel Alliance's struggle for freedom touch upon themes of power, freedom, and the consequences of unchecked authority.
