Twenty-eight constellations were divided by ancient astronomers in China to observe the movements of the sun, the moon and the five stars. They are composed of seven constellations: Oriental Dragon, Southern Suzaku, Western White Tiger and Northern Xuanwu.

In ancient China, the ancients looked up at the starry sky near the ecliptic and divided the astrology near the ecliptic into several regions, which were called Twenty-eight Hostages. It is divided into four palaces: East, South, West and North, with seven nights in each palace, and the seven nights belonging to each palace are imagined as an animal, which is thought to be "the four spirits of heaven and square".

The ancients successively chose 28 stars near the equator of the ecliptic as coordinates. Because they revolve around the sun, the moon and the five stars, they are very similar to the places where the sun, the moon and the five stars live, so they are called twenty-eight lodgings. Twenty-eight stars are used to represent the positions of the sun, the moon and five stars.

As an important part of China's traditional culture, the Twenty-eight Stars are widely used in ancient astronomy, religion, literature, astrology, geomantic omen, lucky choice and so on. Different fields give it different connotations, and the related content is very complicated.
