Each star moves around the center of the galaxy it belongs to, in circular motion. But since all galaxies in the the universe are moving away from each other that will unravel the repeated circles of rotation of the star around its galaxy center into helical path on an imaginary cylinder surface ever increasing in height in one direction outward and away from all other galaxies.
Actual motion and apparent motion.
The actual motion of stars is very hard to see because stars are very far away.
Proper motion: The apparent movement of a star across the sky due to its actual motion through space. Radial motion: Motion of a star toward or away from an observer, causing a shift in its spectral lines due to the Doppler effect. Orbital motion: Stars in binary or multiple star systems can exhibit motion around a common center of mass due to gravitational interactions.
The apparent velocity of a star relative to another star is the speed at which one star appears to move across the sky when observed from the perspective of the other star. This apparent motion is due to the actual motion of both stars through space and can be influenced by factors such as their distance from each other and their individual velocities.
Apparent motion is what it looks like it's doing from here on earth. Actual motion is what it's actually doing in space relative to the system's center, whether you're talking about the sun, if it's the motion of a planet; or the galactic center, if you're talking about a star.
Proper motion of stars refers to the apparent angular movement of a star across the sky relative to more distant background stars, typically measured in arcseconds per year. This motion is caused by the star's actual movement through space, combined with the Earth's position in its orbit. Proper motion is usually expressed in two components: one in the right ascension direction and the other in declination. It provides valuable information about a star's velocity and distance from Earth.

The proper motion of a star or object is measured by its angular change in position on the sky over time, typically in units of arcseconds per year. This motion is caused by the true motion of the star through space, as well as the motion of Earth around the Sun.
The director of Star Trek: The Motion Picture is Robert Wise.
