New Delhi, June 11 (IANS). This time the month of June is very special for astronomy lovers. The ‘Planet Parade’ of planets will be visible not only between June 11 and 15 but throughout this month. Many interesting astronomical phenomena will be seen in the sky in the month of June, which is also special according to astrology.
According to the American space agency NASA, after sunset between June 11 and 15, a beautiful series of planets will be visible in the sky, in which Mercury, Venus and Jupiter will be prominent.
The most important thing is that this view will be even more clear between June 11 and 15, when Mercury will also join with Venus and Jupiter to form a small but attractive row. This scene will be visible near the western horizon soon after sunset.
According to astronomers, this happens because all the planets of our solar system revolve around the Sun on approximately the same imaginary path, which is called the ‘ecliptic’. For this reason, when viewed from Earth, the planets sometimes appear together in the same part of the sky, making it appear as if they are standing in a row.
During this period, Venus will be the brightest planet, which can be easily identified. It will appear near Jupiter, making the pair even more attractive. At the same time, Mercury will be very close to the horizon, so to see it it will be necessary to take care of clear western sky and right time.
According to NASA, not only this parade of planets but many other astronomical events will also be seen in the month of June. Already around June 9, a very close conjunction of Venus and Jupiter was seen, in which both the planets appeared very close to each other.
Now a rare astronomical event can be seen on June 17, when the Moon will be seen passing in front of Venus. This is called ‘Lunar Occultation’. During this time, when viewed from some places, it will appear as if Venus has hidden behind the Moon for some time.
Apart from this, ‘Summer Solstice’ i.e. astronomical summer will begin on June 21. This day brings the longest day and shortest night of the year in the Northern Hemisphere. From this time the summer season is officially considered to begin astronomically.
The month of June makes the night sky even more special because during this time the ‘Summer Triangle’ also becomes clearly visible, which is made up of bright stars like Vega, Altair and Deneb. Many deep-sky objects can also be seen around it, which look very attractive when seen through a telescope.
Scientists say that this combination of planets, moon and stars in the sky throughout this month is a golden opportunity for astronomy lovers and photographers. However, to see Mercury, it will be necessary to take special care and take care of the correct direction because it will be very below the horizon near the Sun.
Overall, the month of June is going to be very exciting for astronomy enthusiasts, the special thing is that the month of June is special for astronomy enthusiasts as well as for people interested in astrology. An interesting astronomical sight will be seen in the sky between June 11 and 15, the planets Venus, Jupiter and Mercury will be seen very close to each other in the same direction.
In astrology, these three planets are considered auspicious. The planet Jupiter is very auspicious and is a symbol of progress along with knowledge and good fortune, Venus is considered to be the factor of love, material comforts and opulence. At the same time, Mercury is considered to be associated with intelligence, communication skills, education and business.
According to astrological beliefs, the appearance of these three auspicious planets together can affect all the 12 zodiac signs in some way or the other. It is believed that this time can prove to be especially beneficial for some zodiac signs. During this period, positive changes can be seen in career, business, education, financial condition and family life. However, its effect may vary according to each person’s birth chart and planetary position.
