Today:
Facing south at around 7:40 reveals a host of bright objects along or near the ecliptic. In the east appears the star Regulus, within the constellation Leo. High in sky, and just east of south appears Mars, still in the company of Castor and Pollux. Just west of south appears Jupiter, with the star Aldebaran just below it. Much farther to the west is the bright but seemingly lonely Venus.
Sunday:
Retrograde motion of Mars ends tonight, which started late last year as the faster Earth passed Mars in our respective orbits. We are now far enough past Mars that its direct, west to east motion resumes. Forming a triangle with the bright Twin stars of Gemini, look left of Mars, toward the twins, where a faint star, Propus, appears, sometimes imagined as where the twins are holding hands.
Monday:
Mercury and Saturn will appear very close together just shortly after sunset, and right along the horizon, just south of west, at 6:15. With difficulty, they will be viewable only for a matter of minutes, until the pair sets at 6:30. For ideal viewing you would need something often hard tome come by in these parts: a perfectly level horizon to the west; binoculars are also helpful.
