Details:
The Moon and Venus were 2 1/2 degrees apart Monday evening. Jupiter hangs above them waiting to pair up with the Moon this Wednesday and with Venus early next month.
If you're wondering about the "Alhena Line", I described it (though without a name)
at this link
when Jupiter crossed it mid-last month and cut it into 4 nearly equal length parts, which emphasized how perfectly straight it was.
