  2. They are also known as the big and little dipper. The northern star is the last star in the 'tail' of the big dipper. If I am not mistaken the little dipper is to the left!
  3. The Major Arcana (Trumps Major, Major Trumps) of the Tarot deck consists of 22 cards. The name Major Arcana is used only in esoteric practice; Tarot decks for playing call them Trumps and usually only show a Roman numeral on each card, plus some decoration that is identical on all of them. In esoteric sets, each Major Arcanum depicts a scene, mostly featuring a person or several people, with many symbolic elements. In many decks, each has a number (usually in Roman numerals) and a name, though not all decks have both, and some have only a picture. The earliest decks bore unnamed and unnumbered pictures on the Majors (probably because a great many of the people using them at the time were illiterate), and the order of cards is not standardised. However, one of the most common set of names and numbers is as follows: 0 - The Fool I - The Magician II - The High Priestess III - The Empress IV - The Emperor V - The Hierophant VI - The Lovers VII - The Chariot VIII - Strength IX - The Hermit X - Wheel of Fortune XI - Justice XII - The Hanged Man XIII - Death XIV - Temperance XV - The Devil XVI - The Tower XVII - The Star XVIII - The Moon XIX - The Sun XX - Judgement XXI - The World The Minor Arcana of the Tarot deck consist of 56 cards, which are closely related to the deck of 52 playing cards used in most modern card games. It is comprised of four suits, most commonly named Wands, Cups, Swords, and Coins (also called Pentacles or Disks), although there is a wide variety of different names and suit symbols used in different decks.

  4. If you are referring to a geographical location I don't believe it exists other than in ancient geography. The answer regarding the Tarot deck and the astrology may not be what you were looking for.
