Answers: Or interesting to learn that?
The fixed stars (from the Latin stellae fixae) are celestial objects that do not seem to move in relation to the other stars of the night sky. Hence, a fixed star is any star except for the Sun. The Fixed Stars were so called by the ancients to distinguish them from the Planets, or Wanderers, which are heavenly bodies moving perceptibly across the sphere of the Zodiac. Fixed Stars are those which appear to be stationary, relative to the Earth. The images on which our Zodiac is based are of course patterns drawn from constellations of Fixed Stars, but the constellations are not exactly the same as the Signs of the Zodiac. For example, fixed stars in the constellation of Scorpio can be found in the Tropical Sign of Sagittarius.
The Earth's "North Star" is one fixed (relative to the Earth) in such a way as to help ships navigate through the ocean when bereft of any landmarks.
Which one?
