We measured the trigonometric parallax of an H₂ O maser source associated with the massive star-forming region NGC 6334I(North), hereafter as NGC 6334I(N), with the VLBI Exploration of Radio Astrometry. The derived annual parallax is 0.789±0.161 mas, corresponding to a distance of 1.26_–0.21^+0.33 kpc. Using the new distance, we recalculated the physical parameters (masses and luminosities) of the dust continuum cores in the region, and the revised parameters are only ∼50% of their originally reported values. We also traced 23 relative proper motions of the H₂O masers associated with SMA1 (central millimeter source in the region) between epochs, which exhibit an average amplitude of maser proper motion of ∼2.03 mas/yr (∼12.22 km/s), tracing a bipolar outflow. The bipolar outflow structure extends through ∼600 mas (∼720 AU), with a dynamical timescale of ∼295 yr. Using an expanding flow model, we derived the most plausible dynamical center of the outflow, pointing to SMA1b (1.3 cm and 7 mm continuum source) as the outflow driving source. Based on our results and other existing parallax results, we derive the pitch angles of the Sagittarius arm as 6.°2±5.°4 along the Galactic longitude range of ∼0.°7 - ∼40.°1 assuming a perfect logarithmic spiral. We derived the peculiar motion of NGC 6334I(N) to be -4±1 km/s toward the Galactic center, 8±2 km/s in the direction of the Galactic rotation, and 25±2 km/s toward the Galactic north pole.
