    1: the northern constellation Ursa Minor; also : north star

    2: one that serves to direct or guide

    3: a center of attraction or attention

    Origin: 1565 ;

     Borrowed from Middle French & Latin; Middle French Cynosure "Ursa Minor," borrowed from Latin Cynosūra, borrowed from Greek Kynósoura, from kynós, genitive of kýōn "dog" + ourá "tail" {mat|hound:1|}, {mat|ass:2|};

      * Note : The reason for the Greeks' application of a compound "dog's tail" to the constellation Ursa Minor is mysterious, there being no nearby constellation called "the dog" that would see:m to justify such a name. The word may have been distorted by folk etymology from a borrowed name, but if so, the source language is unknown.;
