Google couldn't help me out but maybe you can, what does this pattern mean?

All textures do that.

Okay so I went into photoshop just to do a test; I aligned four netherrack textures in the natural tileable array, then I rotated each texture block almost 360• degrees and it created a star as shown bellow,
For a game based off tileable textures this is very unordinary.

I sometimes mod textures in minecraft and I don't recall seeing this unique pattern in the resources of the application, I am aware that minecraft's textures include particle systems and user-activated animations - but this nether "star" is just weird and uncorrelated.

The forums really need a way to upvote posts. (Is that gonna be a feature in the new forum system? I feel like I've seen it mentioned.)

Things weren't always like they are, there.
For a time, they were like us. Life was everywhere. It was somewhat alien, but it was there in plenty.
It was a massive cave system. Bioluminescent wonders lit the cold, damp walls. Massive chasms dotted the landscape. Megafauna the likes of which our world has never seen. Things so incredible we cannot even define what they are, or if they're even alive.
It was a place of wonder and beauty. And safety. There were even sapient tribes. They're still there, you know? Deformed, but alive. Thankfully they no longer feel pain. They still have the physical responses to it, however, sad as it may be. These beings were among the most kind-hearted I had ever encountered. They were wonderful. They still are, though they have grown to mistrust our kind, and for good reason. Long ago, they would mark the cave walls for us. They understood how to navigate the caves. We generally did not. Stars, like the one you have pictured here, were used to mark a nearby group of plants growing edible fruits.
They couldn't even eat most of these, and yet they propagated them throughout the caves just to help us. They gained no benefit from this.
And we... Well, not all of us.... Just most of your ancestors. I was alive back then. I have done indescribable things to stay alive this long. As such, I feel it is my duty to relay you this information. The truth.
I did try to stop them. There were others, too. I was the only one who made it, I think.
When they had activated The Gateway, and thus, set into motion the Eleventh Event, there wasn't much anyone could do but try to survive.
That's not what's important, though.
Activating the gateway had a severe cost on that world.
It flooded it with heat. The very stone making up the caves grew weak. Much of it shattered, and magma was released into it from all over. Long pent-up deposits of it left undisturbed for millennia were all opened simultaneously. Internal temperatures rose greatly.
Most of the life there just died. The beautiful plants died out. The humans there, in their grand fortresses, had been charred to a crisp. And yet, some force beyond my understanding brought them back. In a terrible, terrible rage against what once was their kind. Many posses the ability to literally wither away out bodies upon contact,
The others... The Voluntas. Pigmen, as many call them. They survived, somehow. They have long since grown immune to the horrible heat of that place. They cannot even feel it.
And still, they exist. Against all odds.
They still have the compassion to allow us to live, so long as we do not show aggression. Our kind destroyed their entire plane of existence, and they still have mercy, for they understand it was not all of us who brought about those events.
And yet, they still make those carvings. Not as the signs they once were, but as a reminder, to those few of us who know the truth.

We must never allow our kind to commit such atrocities again.

Or, you know, it's a rotation phenomena.

This must mean that Notch is the leader of the Illuminati! :OOO

It's just a random thing that can appear with the netherrack texture. Doesn't do anything but look cool

It means that the game randomly rotates the textures and sometimes they align in a symmetrical looking way.
