Instructions
Fine Perseus, Cygnus and Pisces on your star chart. Pisces is in the zodiac band. In the late fall or early winter night sky use Orion and Cygnus as guide posts.
Go outside and locate Polaris and the Big Dipper (Ursa Major) in the sky. These are two of the easiest sky marks to find. Take a sighting from the pointer stars of the Big Dipper and follow it through Polaris and you will find on the other side about the same distance away from Polaris the Constellation Andromeda. If you continue further on the same line you will find Pegasus. Andromeda and Pegasus have one star in common.
View beyond Pegasus and you will find Pisces. Pegasus lies in the V shape of Pisces and Andromeda forms an outside boundary to the V. Looking to the left you will see Cygnus and to the right will be Perseus.
