Type 12 names in the basic 12 set, from Aries to Pisces. Read the complete labels beside the representative pictures and compare names such as Taurus and Gemini. The diagrams use north at the top and east on the left. Connecting lines follow drawing conventions and are not official constellation boundaries. Each constellation can use a different scale, and the game does not calculate the sky for your location or time. Do not use a pattern here as a live observing chart; connect the printed name with a representative diagram instead.

Coordinate diagrams with north up and east left. Lines are drawing conventions, not official boundaries. Scales vary; no current sky is calculated.
