In reality, each star has its own "proper motion", but the stars are so far away that no human lifetime is long enough to notice any motion.
But the Earth DOES move, and we live on the moving Earth. Not only is the Earth moving in its orbit around the Sun, at about 66,000 miles per hour, but the Earth also is spinning, once per day.
It is the rotation of the Earth, and our positions riding the Earthly merry-go-round, that make it SEEM like the Sun, Moon and stars are moving. Because the Earth spins west-to-east, the appearance is that the stars move east to west.

How many degree of freedom does a physical structure have?
Zero. Assuming that the physical structure is FIXED (as in a building or something). It cannot move in the x-direction (sideways), the y-direction (upwards), or be rotated about an axis (z-direction). Take the front wheels of a car, for instance. The can move left and right (x-direction) and can rotate (z-direction), but cannot move upwards.

What is a hard boiled cross in action movies?
A hard boiled cross is a manoeuvre performed in the movie Hard Boiled. It involves two people moving along a corridor together, one on each wall, weapons drawn, each covering one direction in the corridor. They both then quickly spin around and move to the other wall of the corridor simultaneously, so each person is now covering the opposite direction in the corridor.

Do stars move seasonly?
Stars are constantly moving, but their distance makes it unnoticeable for us. The reason we see different stars in different seasons is due to our position as we move around the sun each year. What that does mean is that at the same time each year, you will see the same stars in the same positions. During the night, as the Earth rotates, the stars seem to move across the sky. From night to night, because we orbit the sun, they appear to be in slightly different positions at the same time each night. Even then, you have to be looking carefully at the same time each night to notice. Because of that change, over the course of a few months they seem to have moved more considerably.
