Thursday June 12 to Thursday June 19
The Last Quarter Moon is Thursday June 19. Jupiter and Mercury are low in the twilight. Mars is lowering in the early evening sky as it moves through Leo coming closer to the bright star Regulus. On the 17th and 18th the pair will be at their closest, red Mars and blue white Regulus forming a nice contrast. Saturn and Venus are visible in the morning twilight. The Moon is close to Saturn on the 19th. Look for the constellation Corona Borealis before midnight, the blaze star T Coronae Borealis (TCrB) may go Nova eventually.

If you look to the North just before midnight, you will see a prominent bright orange star, Arcturus, if you look northeast you will see a dainty circlet of stars. Corona Borealis, the northern crown. The blaze star T CrB is located on the right-hand side to the circlet, where the line of stars turns down, there are no other bright stars in the region, so when it erupts it will be easily visible. Viewing tips at my T CrB post.
