A fixed star is a star that guides a person's life, most often giving them a destiny. A guiding star is the origin of all life events and possible circumstances, leading, guiding, and sometimes destroying. In principle, not only stars, but also nebulae can be nurturing. All people whose lives have made a difference in the history of mankind in one way or another have had a Nurturing Star or Nebula in their horoscope.
A star is a natal star if it is conjunct a planet that has the strongest status in the natal chart. Such conjunctions are especially pronounced with heavy dummy planets, such as Lilith. Here are some vivid examples that may seem interesting:

Lilith - Markab:

Provocations in the field of politics, the use of force, based on the realization of one's intelligence. It gives danger from cold steel, warfare, and forces one to live life as a warrior, depending on the position of Lilith, the house and sign. Markab requires absolute adherence to the instructions of one's conscience, and if a person with this position neglects the higher purpose, using his tactical and military abilities to please his ego, he is "removed" before the deadline.

Lilith is the Andromeda Nebula:

A vortex, a funnel, a tornado. A very scary connection that only very strong souls can work through. The Andromeda Nebula brings out from the subconscious depths of a person all the most terrible, hidden, disgusting things that burst out under the pretext of moral justice.
The Andromeda Nebula always comes in pairs or groups, united by a false destructive goal, and has the ability to expand its zone of influence, like a nascent tornado.
The Andromeda Nebula is often associated with death, old age, and secrets, and the beginning of its active influence in the life of a person marked by this star usually begins with such events.
Lilith does not add invigorating features to the ominous nebula, inclining the owner of this connection to manifest the lowest level of Lilith's study - a person changes beyond recognition, cultivating all the germinal flaws of his soul in a very short period of time, turning into a rapist, murderer, scoundrel, traitor.

At the second level of Lilith's work, the nebula requires a person to have full control over their own and other people's emotions, requires patience and understanding. Here, a person is encouraged to humbly accept all the blows of fate, their life will be full of hardship and pain, often such people are unjustly punished, victims of slander.
Their lives are filled with suffering, but they must come to understand other people's suffering and justice. A person has to learn humility and compassion, which is very difficult with this aspect. Only a few can reach the highest processing of Lilith when it conjoins the Andromeda Nebula, and then we can observe great ascetics, hermits, sufferers and martyrs who have dedicated their lives to serving others.

Lilith - Capulus:

Builder, architect, innovator. A difficult connection to work through, capable of completely "breaking" a weak soul and giving unprecedented strength and power to a strong soul. The connection endows a person with the ability of a great doer, but it also provokes him or her to destruction.
A person of connection can and should lead, rebuild a new world, a new universe, and often this ability manifests itself after the life of the individual is completely destroyed. Having destroyed the small, a person is obliged to build more.
A person of connection should never cling to the old, be afraid of losing something that has long outlived its usefulness. It is necessary to boldly accept destruction in one's life, realizing that on the ruins of the old one will have to build a new one, but this new one should be intended not so much for the person of connection as for humanity as a whole.

At the first level of Lilith's work, a person struggles to accept the destruction in his or her life, clinging to the old with all his or her might. They try to transfer the process of destruction to the life of another person. Such an individual tries to trample on other people's lives for their own prosperity, sparing no effort to achieve their goal.
