Greetings star friends, Trace here. 
Conjunctions are used in storytelling

2
00:00:05,905 --> 00:00:10,610
as harbingers of fantastical plot lines and 
extraordinary events but if you watch the sky

3
00:00:10,710 --> 00:00:14,681
enough you'll see that conjunctions are actually 
pretty common. We've got a handful coming up,

4
00:00:14,781 --> 00:00:19,886
let me show. The term conjunction means objects 
are close together in the sky and this week on

5
00:00:19,986 --> 00:00:24,391
September 9th the thin crescent moon will 
meet the evening star of Venus in the west

6
00:00:24,491 --> 00:00:28,695
just after sunset. Then next week we'll 
see an even bigger conjunction of three

7
00:00:28,795 --> 00:00:32,699
objects the Moon with Saturn on the 
16th and then Jupiter on the 17th.

8
00:00:32,799 --> 00:00:39,005
Follow the moon all week to see it grow larger 
and pass the two gas giants. That's it. That's

9
00:00:39,105 --> 00:00:43,243
a conjunction. They're prophecies of great 
stargazing but I wouldn't fear some kind

10
00:00:43,343 --> 00:00:47,343
of conjunctive power other than the power to 
hold your attention while you keep looking up.
