'east winds endangered by a star' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'east winds endangered by' is the wordplay.
'winds' indicates anagramming the letters (the letters wind around).
'endangered' becomes 'risked' (I've seen this in another clue).
'by' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'east' is an anagram of 'aste'.
'aste'+'risked'='ASTERISKED'
