Your daily torn fortune: 🥠 Save more; spend less. A torn fortune is a sign that the fortune might not come true. It signifies potential setbacks, uncertainty, or a disruption of the fortune. So, hey, go ahead and knock yourself out. Spend with abandon.

Just went outside and had a look. Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Venus all visible, and Neptune and Uranus, are right there, but not visible to the naked eye. To Mars' left are Castor and Pollux, as shown in the photo. They are twin stars in the constellation Gemini. Tonight is a night of alignment.
The Moon is big and bright tonight. This month the sky has been extraordinary with Jupiter, Venus, Mars, Saturn and Orion the Hunter visible. The Moon is headed toward Mars right now.
The Moon and Mars in tonight’s sky. Mars is closest to Earth tonight, January 12, 2025, since 2022. It is 59,703,891 miles (96,084,099 kilometers) away, and you can see the red of the planet with the naked eye. Look up.
The Moon and Jupiter showing off in tonight’s sky. To the left you can’t see Mars in this photo, but it is shining bright red tonight. That’s all. Carry on.
