You beat me to it. I just took a walk down the dock a few minutes ago
and there it was, just about due east, low in the sky and very
obviously red.

Any idea how far away it is right now? I assume it must be at one of
its closer approaches.

I had the Celestron out on the back deck just star gazing and I
noticed Mars was really bright. It was so clear tonight, you could
pick out details. Really good viewing.

I think it's average opposition. This year, it's closet approach is
December 24th when Mars leaves constellation Scorpius and enters
Ophiuchus.

What about when the moon is in the Seventh House and Jupiter aligns with
Mars?

I suppose then peace will gide the planets, and love will fill the
stars.
