What constellation is Xiong Da Xiong Er?

Xiong Er Bear is Ursa Major and Ursa Minor.

The familiar "Big Dipper" is a part of Ursa Major. The three stars on the spoon handle are just the bear's tail, and the four stars on the spoon head are part of the bear's body. Ursa major consists of seven bright stars, like a small spoon. The second-class bright star on the tail tip is the most famous "Polaris" in the northern sky.

The stars in Ursa major are imagined as the image of a big bear. On the map, the bucket handle of the Big Dipper is the long tail of the big bear, the four stars of the Big Dipper are the body of the big bear, and other darker stars constitute the head and feet of the big bear.

There are more than 100 visible stars in Ursa major, including 6 second-class stars, 6 third-class stars and many other fourth-class stars. The six second-class stars are all distributed on the Big Dipper, so the Big Dipper is particularly eye-catching in Ursa Major. After dusk in spring, this big bear hangs upside down in the northern night sky, and its tail (that is, the barrel handle) points to the east. Therefore, our people regard Ursa Major as a sign of spring.
