Mark Your Calendars Now, ‘Cause These 7 Celestial Events Are Worth Taking Off Work For

This is a rare alignment where six planets — Mercury, Venus, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune — cluster in the same section of the sky.

How to See: Look toward the western horizon shortly after sunset. Venus and Jupiter will be the brightest stars in the show, while you’ll need binoculars or a telescope to spot the shy ones like Neptune.

The Mental Health Excuse: If six entire planets can take the time to align their schedules, you can certainly align yours to include a nap. Use this “parade” as a reason to march straight away from your inbox.

Self-Care Idea: “Internal Alignment” Day. Spend the day doing things that make you feel centered, whether that’s a guided meditation, color-coding your bookshelf, or finally deleting those 4,000 unread promotional emails.
