- “Are you in need of a helping hand? Would you like me to guide you to the Star?”
- —Cosmic Spirit, Super Mario Galaxy 2
The Cosmic Spirit is a character in the game Super Mario Galaxy 2 and resembles Rosalina from the prequel.
When Mario talks to her, she asks if he needs to be shown the way to get to a Star. If the player agrees to do so, the Cosmic Spirit will transform into a blue orb and encircle Mario's body, gaining control of him and carry out the Cosmic Guide mode (similar to the Super Guide). Unlike the Super Guide, the Cosmic Spirit won't disappear, even when the level is completed without her. The Cosmic Spirit will lead Mario to the Power Star. If the player feels that they can take care of the rest, they can press 
on the Wii Remote to regain control of Mario. However, upon activating the Cosmic Guide, the Power Star will instantly degrade to a Bronze Star. The player should keep note however that the Cosmic Spirit will not appear unless the player lost too many lives trying to get a certain star, whether being the player's first time through or while revisiting the level. She appears in every galaxy, but not in every mission.
The Cosmic Spirit has some similarities to Cosmic Mario and Cosmic Luigi; they're all cosmic counterparts to actual characters (Cosmic Spirit to Rosalina; Cosmic Mario to Mario; Cosmic Luigi to Luigi). However, the main difference between them is that Cosmic Mario and Cosmic Luigi antagonize the player, instead of helping the player.
