If you were on the Equator you would see all of them. Otherwise it depends where you live. I live in New Zealand at latitude 35° S. So I can't see any northern stars closer than 35° to the North Celestial Pole. If you live in the north at say 35°N, then you wouldn't see those stars which are closer than 35° to the South Celestial Pole.

∙ 8y agoYou can't see constellations that are under the horizon.If you live (for example) 50 degrees NORTH of the equator, then all stars, constellations, or parts of constellations that are up to 50 degrees from the celestial SOUTH POLE will never come above the horizon, since in this case, the celestial south pole is always 50 degrees below the horizon for you.

∙ 8y agoIf you are in the northern hemisphere you cannot see constellations that are close to the celestial South, and conversely. Also, some constellations on the celestial equator will be "behind" the sun and, until the earth's orbit brings it to the correct side of the sun, those constellations will not be visible either.

Is there anymore hidden zodiac constellation?
There is one zodiac constellation that is not included in the traditional zodiac calendar. That constellation is Ophiuchus, and it lies between Scorpius and Sagittarius. This means there are 13 zodiac constellations. Constellations cannot be "hidden," so to speak. They are a fabrication of the human mind and would not exist elsewhere in the universe as we see them on Earth. Currently, we have 88 constellations (some of which are Northern hemisphere constellations, others of which are Southern hemisphere constellations) and their boundaries (constellations are not just the stars that make up a shape, but every celestial object in a defined region in the sky) fill the entire sky.

Constellations are patterns of stars, so stars cannot be constellations.
Are all constellations visible all the time?
No. As we orbit the Sun different constellations become visible, but we can only see them when it is dark. Constellations are in the sky during daylight, but the Sun is so bright, we cannot see them. A few months after that, they start to be visible in the evenings and soon at night, by which time other constellations are in daylight and cannot be seen. You will see any constellation at the same time of year, every year. So the constellations you see in the night sky tonight are the same as the ones you will see on this date in any other year. The only thing that will differ is where the Moon and planets are.
