Moon and Jupiter: June 16, 2019




It is rainy season now, but Tokyo had an extraordinary fine day today.

The sky was blue in the daytime and clear in the night.

It was not yet a full moon, but it was large with its phase 12.7.

Moreover, we could see Jupiter near the moon.


The scene reminded me of the song of Aquarius though we did not have Mars tonight.

When the moon is in the Seventh House
And Jupiter aligns with Mars …

I checked the star chart in the internet. The photo left shows the situation at 22:43 on Sunday, June 16 in Tokyo time.
