5-planets alignment – (Astro chart & visual graphics for 20th January 2016)

Okay so here is the `astrological positions’ of the 5 planets that are `visually’ lining up (2nd graphics shows the line-up.. Remember the vast space between East and West…and so this is spread across almost half the sky!

I keep seeing fancy graphics of beautiful planets all lined up over Pyramids and such..  It displeases me when social media sexes-up astrology… or astronomy.  Reality is not so..   It’s hard to see all of the planets ..just little white dots… even on a clear sky.  I would not like people to get seduced by all this glamorizing of what they might see..and go out and find it not so.

So here’s the charts (basic) showing positions (signs) where these planets are tonight, and a graphics I screen captured to show visually what it might look like at around 6.30am.. (London, gmt)

They sort of spreads across a third of the sky.. in an arc…visually. They **do not** line up astrologically .. Jupiter is in Virgo, Mars in Scorpio, Saturn & Venus in Sagittarius..and if you can seen it….Mercury is in Capricorn.. (so is Pluto..but can’t see it …need a Telescope!). So you see..many are not in the same sign.. It’s a kind of visual line up.. Good light show…but no astrological significance.

Go out and actually look up.. Jupiter is up almost all night.. and quite a bit away to the left of it..is mars..and further left is Saturn & Venus…not so visible till 5am…and Mercury will be rising by the horizon… But then Sun comes up and brightens horizon so much all of them more or less disappear ..(around 6.50am..when all planets will be above Horizon..and visible.. for a short while.. )

Enjoy.
