The seven stars of the Big Dipper can be used to define the triple combinations of the 12 earthly branches 地支 (12 divisions of the ecliptic, similar to the 12 zodiacal divisions in Western Astrology). The triple combinations are: 1. Shen + Zi + Chen 申子辰 = Water element combination 2. Si + You + Chou 巳酉丑 = Metal element combination 3. Hai + Mao + Wei 亥卯未 = Wood element combination 4. Yin + Wu + Xu 寅戊戌 = Fire element combination The diagram shows how the imaginary lines from the different stars of Big Dipper constellation point the exact direction of the 3 signs that form the triple combinations.
