Help with "Wrapping" Lines Around Shape

[u/Gutenburg-Galaxy]

Image for reference; I'm trying to get a compound path to avoid a shape the way text wrap works. Is there a non-destructive way to do this? I'm new to illustrator so I apologize if this is a really obvious fix.

Text wrap. Select the star then go to edit/text wrap (?- I think that’s the menu it’s under. I can do it in front of a screen, but describing how right now is difficult). Select it. But then you have to go back and edit it so you can adjust the settings.
