In The Sky: February 2026
Of special interest is the close pairing of Mercury and a thin crescent
moon low in the west just after sunset on February 18.

Beautiful as only the moon
Of my village can be
...where no neon
Dulls the magical clarity
Of Lady Moon
...my beautiful
African Moon

 From "African Moon"
by Koumanthio Diallo, Guinean poet
