Author's Notes: Jupiter and Saturn are in the eastern morning sky before daybreak. Mercury is below Jupiter during brighter twilight. The crescent moon is in the evening sky. Two bright planets are in the western evening sky. Look for Evening Star Venus. It is stepping eastward below Pollux. Mars marches eastward toward the Beehive star cluster in Cancer, to the upper left of Pollux.
