Upcoming Sky Events for June 2019...
In the month of June, our special star-family will be Deli (Aquarius) and its decans. The month of June has several sky events, which I will discuss in more detail on the day they occur. But here's a heads-up on what you can expect to see in the month of June:
June 4 - New Moon Eve
The first visible crescent of the new moon should appear at sunset. Watch for the crescent moon which will follow the sun going down as it sets. The new moon will not be visible very long following the sunset. The biblical day of the New Moon always follows the New Moon Eve. So the New Moon day, being the third New Moon of our current Biblical year, will be June 5.
June 10 - Jupiter at Opposition
Jupiter (Tsedek in Hebrew) will be at its closest approach to Earth. Also, it will be fully illuminated by the Sun making it brighter than it is at any other time of the year. This will be the best time to view Tsedek and its moons. A medium-sized telescope should allow you to see some of the details in Tsedek's cloud bands. And simply using a good pair of binoculars should make it possible for you to see Tsedek's four largest moons, which will appear like bright dots on either side of the planet.
June 21 - Summer Solstice (or Winter Solstice for the Southern Hemisphere)
The June solstice is one of the four Biblical Tekufoh, which are: The spring and fall equinoxes (true) and the winter and summer solstices. The Summer Solstice is the longest day of the year. June 21 is the Summer Solstice in the Northern Hemisphere. But in the Southern Hemisphere, the June 21 solstice is the Winter Solstice - making it the shortest day of the year.
