An eight-pointed star is equivalent to the six-pointed star but with the addition of a horizontal divider, the horizon line separating heaven and earth. The number eight emphasizes the new creation that will be the union of the heavenly and earthly - the triple helix DNA offspring. I believe it also references Noah the Eighth (as presented in the "Milk Hill 8" crop sign of 8/8/08), due to the importance of the counter-flood perspective from which this mark-of-the-Beast kind of incursion can be viewed.
The popular image of what is called

This is a hexagram inscribed within a circle that resembles the simpler form used for the invocation of demonic entities. The circle is itself the serpent ouroboros. The circle divided in two, horizontally, presents the Hermetic Maxim: "As above, so below." The lighter heavenly air is above the darker earthly water. The waterline marks the horizon with the reflection of the heavenly visible in the earthly. The "iron cross" in the center aligns with the vertical drawn between the uppermost and lowermost points of the opposing deltas, and the transverse horizontal divider. This four-pointed cross fits neatly inside the hexagon formed by the union of the two deltas and is white to represent the divinity of their offspring. The male heavenly upward pointing delta is white and the opposing female earthly delta is black. The head is white and the body is black. The royal crown is triple tiered, representing one tier for each strand of DNA in the hybrid Beasts that are promised kingdoms. The beard is likewise a trident.

Another inspired example of such a layered star is found at the Vatican, in St. Peter's Square. This one is punctuated by the pyramid-topped obelisk relocated from Heliopolis (On) Egypt under commission of the emperor Caligula. Many of the above observations apply.
Such a star marks the doors of the barn where the iron giant first stayed, in Hogarth's care.

The stars on the red and white sweater Hogarth wears are of this eight-pointed variety.
