This morning at 5:15 am the Moon, Venus, and Jupiter can be found close together above the eastern horizon in the constellations of Pisces and Aquarius. Neptune is also less than 0.5° from Venus; however, it is too dim to see with just your eyes. Additionally, Mars and Saturn are visible just to the southeast of the planetary cluster in the constellations of Aquarius and Capricornus respectively.

The sky as it appeared at 5:15 am this morning. The Moon and five planets are located just above the eastern horizon. However, only 4 planets are visible to the naked eye as Neptune is too dim and caught in the glare of Venus. Star maps created using Stellarium
