from Farmer's Almanac,
#AstronomyAlert: Look to the southeast before dawn on 12/5 and through the weekend to see the crescent Moon line up with the morning planets: Jupiter, Mars, and Venus. The bright blue giant star Spica will be to the right of Venus. The Moon will move downward, closer to the horizon each night as it wanes toward the New Moon phase. On the 7th, look for it very close to #Venus!

Just saw this. Got THIS pic last night/this morning @ 5 a.m. TRIED to catch the star/planet upper right better, but difficult point of view, over my pillow, and reflection from double pane window.
I got Jupiter!
