China has had the theory of star worship and star occupation since ancient times. Ancestors' reverence for celestial phenomena has a great influence on predicting the good or bad of personnel, especially the life and death of the fighting masters in the north and south. The underlying reason is that in ancient society, ancestors regarded Beidou and Polaris as a whole, which was called "Ji Du". The meter is at the center of the rotation of the starry sky, and the stars revolve around it as if it were the master of the sky.
The ancestors used the four fingers of Beidou to define seasons and climate, and Beidou became the maker of the order of heaven and earth. The long harvest in spring, summer, autumn and winter storage seems to follow the direction of Beidou, which has become the center of the metaplasia of everything in the world. The deification of Beidou evolved with the development of Beidou belief. It began in the Qin and Han Dynasties and lasted for thousands of years, until the Tang and Song Dynasties.
The Big Dipper may have been nine planets in ancient times, but its position and shape are different from today's. Later, due to the different precession and observation sites, the two stars were hidden, and the theory of the Big Dipper became popular in the world.

For example, Zhen Jing, the feast of the core monument of life in Emperor Tai Shang Ling Xuan Bei Dou, contains the names of the nine planets of Beidou. According to the birthplace of people, Beidou is the main star god of the core monument of life: the first Yangming of Beidou is greedy for wolves, and the son is born; Yuan Xing Jun, the giant gate of the second yin essence of Beidou, is an ugly marine; Lv Cun, the third real person of Beidou, is the true star king, and a stranger of Yin and Xu belongs to it.
The fourth Beidou, Xuan Ming, Niu Xingjun, was born by Mao and you; The fifth star of Beidou, Dan Yuangang Xingjun, belongs to Chen and Shen Sheng; The six poles of Beidou belong to four unborn; On the seventh day of Beidou, Guan was born in the afternoon.
