__ Major (4)

I believe the answer is:

ursa

(Other definitions for ursa that I've seen before include "(and 11 across) Pole Star constellation" , "Major/Minor constellation" , "stars" , "Bear (constellation)" , "It's both major anf minor overhead" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times, the King Feature Syndicate, the USA Today and The New York Times.
