"Fixed stars have a prominent part in traditional astrology: Ptolemy in the first book of  Tetrabiblos lists them without giving any meaning, but we have several alternative sources for them, Manilius and Firmicus in the Latin world,  Anonymous of 379 and two chapters from Liber Hermetis  in the late Antiquity, and in the Middle Age and Renaissance was well known Albumasar’s chapter about paranatellonta .

Nevertheless, primary directions to fixed stars are not unusual in astrological tradition.
