If you can see the First Point of Aries, then you are truly blessed. I’ve often looked for it but never found it. However, tonight we might be lucky. Saturn, about 225 degrees from Lambda Piscium, is sitting almost right on top of the little blighter. I can see both Betelgeuse and Saturn from the front of my house right now. A confession, I know nothing about Astronomy, but £2.09 per month for Stellarium allows me to bluff my way like a professional.
