A thin crescent moon appears low in the southwestern sky tomorrow night. The moon is entering the zodiacal constellation Virgo, one of the zodiac’s largest constellations. It takes more than three nights for the moon to move through this constellation.
The brightest star nearby is Spica. Without planets in the area, the moon is alone in the western sky. The red planet Mars is just too close to the setting sun to be seen.
If you haven’t noticed, tides are running more extreme now and it is tied to astronomy. The New Moon was Thursday. The moon is also close today, in perigee.
Tides are created by the gravitational pull of both the sun and moon. Sometimes the two pull together from the same portion of the sky and the pull is greater. Greater pull means higher and lower tides.
