Today at noon, Neptune appears 2° north of the Moon. Tomorrow morning at 2 am, Venus will appear 2° north of the Moon. Unfortunately, the lunar appulse with Neptune occurs during the day, and the lunar appulse with Venus occurs when both bodies are below the horizon. However, it is possible to see a waxing crescent Moon and Venus very close together, along with Jupiter, tonight at 6:30 pm in the west-southwestern sky.
The west-southwestern sky as it will appear at 6:30 pm tonight. A waxing crescent moon passes just south of Venus. Jupiter is also visible north of Venus. Star map created using Stellarium
