What is dhruv tara or pole star?

Dhruv Tara, commonly known as the Pole Star or Polaris, is a prominent star located nearly directly above the Earth's North Pole. It serves as a crucial navigational reference for travelers due to its fixed position in the night sky, remaining nearly stationary while other stars appear to move around it. In various cultures, Dhruv Tara holds significant symbolic meaning, often representing guidance and steadfastness. Its name "Dhruv" in Sanskrit translates to "immovable" or "constant."
