The religious leaders in Israel were not excited when the magi told them of the star and what the star meant. The religious leaders believed God would have given them the news about the birth of Jesus. They believed God would not have given the news about the birth of Jesus to others apart from the Jews leaders.
Sometimes we may still see such attitudes in our time. Let us not be discourage when others are not so excited about the stories of Jesus that we know. Keep focused and follow the star even when others are not excited.
