What explains the phenomenon of the dancing stars?

Just a cool and simple Girl asked:


Last week I was in the desert of Sahara. During the night I saw 2 stars that where moving fast, but it wasn’t in a trajectory (like shooting stars). It was more like a dancing movement, going in all directions and coming back to their place. I never heard of that phenomenon. Can it be an optic illusion? (Other people where seeing the same thing).
Thanks for the answer and sorry for my bad English ;)
