that is because the constellations are stars and they move, why dont u see it in the summer sky , because that is the time that you are faced away from the constellation ( in your geographical location)

Orion is a winter constellation, so it is not visible in the summer sky as it is on the opposite side of the Earth's orbit around the Sun. In the summer, Orion is below the horizon during nighttime hours.

It can be seen in Summer - if you live in the Southern Hemisphere. However, if you live in the Northern Hemisphere then Orion is blocked by the glare of the sun during our Summer.
