The Moon will be positioned above the bright planet Venus, now informally called “the morning star”. The star Regulus, the brightest star in the constellation Leo, will be seen above and just to the left of Venus, however, less bright but with a sparkling bluish-white color. The planet Saturn will be below and to the left of Regulus, being seen as a pale yellowish point of light.
