To locate Polaris using the constellations Orion, Pegasus, and Auriga, start by finding Orion, which features the prominent three-star belt. From Orion's belt, draw an imaginary line through the belt stars and extend it upwards towards the north; this will lead you to the bright star Aldebaran in Taurus. Moving from Aldebaran, look for the V-shaped constellation of Pegasus; Polaris is not far from the line you drew and can be found in the Little Dipper, part of Ursa Minor, to the north of these constellations. Auriga, which is close to Orion, can also help you orient yourself, as its bright star Capella is nearby.
