Planetary alignments aren’t rare — but 6 visible planets are.

Tonight, you can see the Planet Parade of 2025. Here's how to watch and what you need to know:

Four bright planets will be visible with the naked eye — Venus, Saturn, Jupiter, and Mars. For those with binoculars or a small telescope, Uranus and Neptune also become visible, making six planets accessible at once.

And there's more. Comet ATLAS is now visible as well. After surviving its close encounter with the Sun, the comet has a brightness of around magnitude –3, making it a standout celestial event.

Venus and Saturn appear close together in the West to Southwest during the first couple of hours after dark, while Jupiter will shine high overhead while Mars will rise in the east. A simple way to distinguish a star from a planet is that planets tend to shine steadily while stars twinkle. All these planets align along the ecliptic, an imaginary "clothesline" marking the plane of the solar system.

Mars has a slight red hue, which should help you identify it a little more easily. Jupiter appears as a cream-colored light, shining just 5° from Aldebaran in Taurus.

Simple life

“Don’t force your children into your ways, for they were created for a time different from your own.”
- Plato

Plato, the respected Athenian philosopher, knew that every generation shapes its own path. As such, he founded one of the very first institutions of higher learning in the Western world, the Academy.

His school gave the next generation the tools they needed to shape their lives and their world.

"A Lady asked an old street vendor: "How much do you sell your eggs for?" The old man replied "0.50¢ an egg, madam.” The Lady responde, “I'll take 6 eggs for $2.00 or I'm leaving.” The old salesman replied, “Buy them at the price you want, Madam. This is a good start for me because I haven't sold a single egg today and I need this to live.”

She bought her eggs at a bargain price and left with the feeling that she had won. She got into her fancy car and went to a fancy restaurant with her friend. She and her friend ordered what they wanted. They ate a little and left a lot of what they had asked for. So they paid the bill, which was $150. The ladies gave $200 and told the fancy restaurant owner to keep the change as a tip.

This story might seem quite normal to the owner of the fancy restaurant, but very unfair to the egg seller. The question it raises is;
Why do we always need to show that we have power when we buy from the needy?
And why are we generous to those who don't even need our generosity?

We once read somewhere that a father used to buy goods from poor people at a high price, even though he didn't need the things. Sometimes he paid more for them. His children were amazed. One day they asked him "why are you doing this dad?" The father replied: "It's charity wrapped in dignity.”

I know that most of you will not share this message, but if you are one of the people who have taken the time to read this far...
Then this message of attempted "humanisation" will have gone one step further in the right direction."
