Planetary alignment is an astronomical term used to describe the event when several planets gather closely on one side of the Sun at the same time.

Planetary parade is a colloquial term that means, in the broadest sense, that several planets are present in the sky in one night.

Now let’s find out when the planets will align next. To learn more about how planetary alignments work, go straight to the “What is a planetary alignment” chapter.

6 planets in the planetary alignment on June 3, 2024
The next planetary alignment will take place on June 3, 2024. In the early morning, six planets — Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, , and Neptune — will align in the sky. Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn may be spotted with the naked eye, but you’ll need a telescope or high-powered binoculars to see Neptune and . Let’s take a closer look at the conditions for observing the planets.

Yellowish Saturn (mag 1.1) will be in the sky from late night on. It will be visible with the naked eye in the constellation Aquarius. Neptune (mag 7.9) will be located in the nearby constellation Pisces, but you’ll need high-powered binoculars to spot it.

A little later, Mars (mag 1.0) will rise. You can distinguish the planet by its reddish tint. The planet will also be located in the constellation Pisces and will be visible to the naked eye.

Then, at dawn, (mag 5.8), Jupiter (mag -2.0), and Mercury (mag -1.4) will appear on the eastern horizon. Jupiter will be bright enough to see with the naked eye, and with a little luck, you’ll be able to see Mercury without optics, too. However, it will be harder, as Mercury is located close to the Sun. will only be visible through binoculars. The three planets will be located in the constellation Taurus.

I Sing the Body Electric
Song

I sing the body electric
I celebrate the me yet come
I toast to my own reunion
When I become one with the sun
And I’ll look back on Venus
I’ll look back on Mars
And I’ll burn with the fire
Of ten million stars
And in time and in time
We will all be stars
I sing the body electric
I glory in the glow of rebirth
Creating my own tomorrow
When I shall embody the Earth
And I’ll serenade Venus
I’ll serenade Mars
And I’ll burn with the fire
Of ten million stars
And in time and in time
We will all be stars
Yeah (ooh)
Ooh, yeah
Yeah, yeah
We are the emperors now
And we are Czars
And in time and in time
We will all be stars
I sing the body electric
I celebrate the me yet come
I toast to my own reunion
(My own reunion)
When I become one with the sun
And I’ll look back on Venus (back on Venus)
I’ll look back on Mars (back on Mars)
And I’ll burn with the fire (burn with the fire)
Of ten million stars
And in time and in time (and in time)
And in time and in time (and in time)
And in time and in time (and in time)
We will all be stars

The 5th Dimension Lyrics
“Aquarius / Let The Sunshine In”

When the moon is in the Seventh House
And Jupiter aligns with Mars
Then peace will guide the planets
And love will steer the stars

This is the dawning of the age of Aquarius
Age of Aquarius
Aquarius
Aquarius

Harmony and understanding
Sympathy and trust abounding
No more falsehoods or derisions
Golden living dreams of visions
Mystic crystal revelation
And the mind’s true liberation
Aquarius
Aquarius

When the moon (when the moon) is in the Seventh House
And Jupiter (Jupiter) aligns with Mars
Then peace will guide the planets
And love will steer the stars

This is the dawning of the age of Aquarius
Age of Aquarius
Aquarius
Aquarius
Aquarius
Aquarius

Let the sunshine
Let the sunshine in
The sunshine in

Let the sunshine
Let the sunshine in
The sunshine in

Let the sunshine (oh let it shine)
Let the sunshine in (come on)
The sunshine in (now, everybody, just sing along)

Let the sunshine (let the sun shine on in)
Let the sunshine in (open up your heart)
The sunshine in (and let it shine on in)

(And when you are lonely) Let the sunshine
(Hey, let it shine) Let the sunshine in
(You got to open up your heart) The sunshine in
(And let it shine on in)

(And when you feel like you’ve been mistreated) Let the sunshine
(And your friends turn their back on you) Let the sunshine in
(Just open up your heart) The sunshine in
(And let it shine on in)

(You’ve got to feel it) Let the sunshine
(You’ve got to feel it) Let the sunshine in
(Ah, open up your heart) The sunshine in
(And let it shine on in)

(Now let me tell you one thing) Let the sunshine
(I want you to sing along with the 5th Dimension) Let the sunshine in
(Hey, and open up your heart) The sunshine in
(Ah, come on)

Let the sunshine (and let it shine)
Let the sunshine in (every day)
The sunshine in

(Hey, you’ve got to feel it) Let the sunshine
(You’ve got to feel it) Let the sunshine in
(When you open up your heart) The sunshine in
(You got to let the sun come on in)

Alicia Keys Lyrics
“Girl On Fire”

She’s just a girl and she’s on fire
Hotter than a fantasy
Lonely like a highway
She’s livin’ in a world and it’s on fire
Filled with catastrophe
But she knows she can fly away

Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
She got both feet on the ground
And she’s burnin’ it down
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
She got her head in the clouds
And she’s not backin’ down

This girl is on fire
This girl is on fire
She’s walkin’ on fire
This girl is on fire

Looks like a girl, but she’s a flame
So bright, she can burn your eyes
Better look the other way
You can try, but you’ll never forget her name
She’s on top of the world
Hottest of the hottest girls, say

Oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
We got our feet on the ground
And we’re burnin’ it down
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Got our head in the clouds
And we’re not comin’ down

This girl is on fire (Fire, fire)
This girl is on fire
She’s walkin’ on fire (Fire, fire)
This girl is on fire

(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Everybody stares as she goes by
‘Cause they can see the flame that’s in her eyes
Watch her when she’s lightin’ up the night
Nobody knows that she’s a lonely girl
And it’s a lonely world
But she gon’ let it burn, baby, burn, baby

This girl is on fire (Fire, fire)
This girl is on fire
She’s walkin’ on fire (Fire, fire)
This girl is on fire

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

She’s just a girl, but she’s on fire

Peace Out Peeps have a safe evening.

Hi Sheba, how’s it going with you and your hubby along with Poppy?
Are you enjoying your Spring, without the huge storm of course.
The last day of my birthday weekend. It’s was a lovely birthday, I don’t usually make any kind of fuss or tell people. But this time, I was telling everybody and anybody 😁😁😁.
I was supposed to be a July baby, but mom fell and was in labor a several hours. I was born two months earlier at home in the middle of the Brazilian Autumn and rainy season. Maybe that’s why I love to sleep when it’s raining and storming outside.
Wishing you a marvelous week, filled a great walks with Poppy.

There is a 51% chance of rain later this afternoon. I am not holding my breath. Though the clouds are thickening, things may not work out for the droplets.

Yesterday, I stopped at the Farmer’s Market and brought a couple of items for dinner that were all salads. They had roasted an entire chicken and one of the family members were cutting it up for us to sample. It was absolutely delicious. So good in fact, I wanted the recipe. They will put it on line at a later date. I did pick up one that was already cut up and brought it home. It’s in the freezer.; I hope to return sometime during the week for veggies and fruit, though I did purchase the first of the season cherries and they are sweet. Amazing. Bananas were next on the list and I bought four. I also picked up a couple of cream cheese that were homemade. One was with blueberries (yum) and hubby’s favorite, roasted peppers. I have crackers to go with.

Hubby was in a wheelchair when I arrived. His feet were resting on the bed and he looked comfy. However, the color in his face was awful. He mentioned he was fine. I’m not so sure. By the time I left around 9 pm his demeanor had changed to good/better. Maybe he just needed to get into bed. He is moving around more. He says he is coming home this week. Not so fast. He still needs to be able to stand on one leg and to be able to get in and out of bed on his own. I thought the therapy was daily, but is not. It’s at least twice per week. I then recalled that the last time he had therapy from the orthopedic group was at least once per week, but not more than two days at 45 minutes each time. This will be a slow process. Hopefully, the insurance will cover it. Time will tell.

It’s time for me to shower and dress so I can drive to the rehab with a stop for gas. Hope you three have a great day and stay safe. Hope the kitties enjoy their meal and then some.

@sheba2011

Happy Sunday to you. Gloomy, overcast day and maybe some showers.🌧 Hubs did not go golfing since he has a sore throat/cough (which I am now getting).😖

Of course I have been watching the Stanley Cup playoffs.🏒 Getting close to the final matchup starting next Saturday. It is quite a long playoff series.

All in for an Italian dinner – spaghetti and meatballs.🍝 Haven’t made that in a while.

Thanks for all my relaxing beverages.🍸 Only my bartender knows my prescription, lol! Sweet hugs to you and Poppy.🤗💖
