The position of the pole star can be located with the help of constellation Saptarishi and Sharmishtha. On one side of the pole star it has saptarishi and on the other side it has Sharmishtha. When Saptarishi rises, Sharmishtha sets.
In ancient times constellations were devised to be able to recognise stars in the sky.

•Saptarishi is also known as the Big Dipper ,the Great Bear. It can be seen in the summer sky during night.
•Sharmishtha is also known as Cassiopeia. It can be seen in the Northern sky during winters.

Constellations are a group of stars forming some kind or recognisable figure in a pattern. In Indian terminology constellations are called Nakshatras.
