Riddles

Polaris is in Ursa Minor and shows you north. Which other constellation helps with wayfaring, and fits all the clues in the riddle?
 
By the way, while preparing the “reveal” for this riddle I discovered one of the clues was mistaken/incomplete. So I learned something new from this. (The clue still works, so it is correct in a literal sense, but it could also say something else.)

The North Star or Pole Star called Polaris, which is the bright star at the tip of the handle of Ursa Minor and located directly above the North Pole, can be used for navigation. The stars in this constellation can wheel around this more stationary star

@1ForAll gave the answer of Polaris.

The Southern Cross constellation as another answer, for where a Southern Pole Star would be if it could be as visible like Polaris. Sirius, the brightest star in the sky, down from Orion's belt, would be in the southeast direction.

I just edited my comment and removed the first quote. I don't really know how that quote from where Kayla posted something about Planet of the Apes got on there. I just noticed it. 🤦‍♀️
 
Next riddle:

I can be hidden,
but I cannot seek.
I can be shared,
But then I am not me.

What am I?
 
Over 800 kinds of us there be.
One has a double jaw, though the second one you may not see.
Yet another might perhaps light your Christmas tree.
What am I ?
 
Stronger than steel,
Yet floats on the breeze.
Stitch up the sky,
Or hang from the trees.
What am I?
 
Aw no! You were meant to take longer so I had time for a good composition! <sigh!>

Ok, an easy (weak) one to bring in the new year!

I'm virtually real in every sense,
I challenge the rituals of pounds and pence.
I'm held in chains to lock the past tense,
And hide the tales of your expense.
