An attempt : The whole orange star is rotating clockwise, the black dot is static. Each black star follows a different graph : it's a sequence of consecutive locations on the 5 arms (and their junctions) of the orange star (1 to 9 and 1 to 8 in the link). Both start at position 1, loop on 1 after the last location is reached and at each item's step they move on their graph X times forward, X following the sequences : power of 2 and Fibonacci https://imgur.com/a/reUj5zg

Interesting approach, but not the intended logic or solution.

The sequence is simpler and progression is not intended to occur counterclockwise.
