Which has a higher frequency a star moving away from earth or towards earth?

I would think that current evidence suggests that the stars moving away from earth, some of them in far distant galaxies moving at unimaginably high speeds, are going much faster than stars moving toward us. The entire Andromeda galaxy is moving toward us and will collide with us in roughly 5 billion years, and it is not moving anywhere near as fast as the distant retreating galaxies.

How many times does the earth move?

The Earth constantly moves by 1) revolving on its axis; 2) orbiting the Sun; 3) moving with the Sun and the other planets toward Vega; 4) circling the galaxy; 5) moving with the rest of the galaxy toward M31 in Andromeda; 6) moving with the Local Group of galaxies within the Local Cluster; 7) moving with the Local Cluster around the Local Supercluster; 8) moving with everything else outward from the Big Bang. Perhaps our whole universe is moving within the Multiverse, but we can't really know that.
