Five stars appear in the sky
Speaking of the Four Stars in a row, many people may immediately think of divination, numerology, etc. after hearing about it for the first time. They feel that it is very mysterious. In fact, the four-star conjunction is a celestial phenomenon. As the name suggests, four planets in the universe are aligned in a straight line at the same time from a certain angle, appearing above the sky.
On November 29, 2019, the four planets in the solar system, Saturn, the moon, Venus, and Jupiter, will gather in the sky and form a straight line at low altitude in the southwest. This phenomenon of "four stars in a row" is very rare and a very normal celestial phenomenon. You just need to simply appreciate it. It can be viewed with the naked eye or binoculars. There is no need to add any good or bad luck. There are some superstitious thoughts among them. When the four-star phenomenon occurs, nothing special will happen to the earth, and asteroids and comets outside the earth will also not be affected.
The so-called planetary alignment is actually an astronomical phenomenon, which means that the planets are all arranged in a straight line on the same side of the sun, which is called a planetary alignment. This kind of lianju phenomenon is divided into: nine-star lianju, eight-star lianju, seven-star lianju, etc. Usually, when the planets are almost in a straight line when viewed from a meat stall, it can be called a "five-star continuum". In this sense, the "planet connection" is actually just a visual phenomenon.
This time it is a phenomenon of four stars in a row. There are 9 major planets in the solar system, so there will also be an extremely rare celestial phenomenon of nine stars in a row. The nine planets will continue to orbit the sun and Venus in their own orbits. Their orbits are very different, and their speeds and cycles are also different. They are all scattered in different regions of the solar system. However, after a certain period of time, these nine planets will appear on one side of the sun at the same time and converge into a fan-shaped area with a small angle. This is the "link of stars" phenomenon. The more planets there are, the less chance they have of coming together in a line. Just like the phenomenon of Nine Stars in a Link, it only occurs once every 300 years.
I heard that there will be a five-star streak at 19:30 today. Is it true?
On the morning of April 18, Jupiter, Venus, Mars and Saturn in the solar system will be aligned almost equidistantly, creating a rare "four-star continuation".
Xiu Lipeng, director of the Tianjin Astronomical Society and astronomical science popularization expert, said that on the morning of April 18, Jupiter, Venus, Mars and Saturn were almost equidistant in a straight line from left to right, from low to high, and staged " Four stars in a row". Taking the same longitude area in Beijing as an example, the public here look toward the eastern horizon around 4:30 in the morning. If there is no obstruction, they can see the newly rising Jupiter (magnitude -2.1) with the naked eye. The upper right is Extraordinarily bright Venus (magnitude -4.2), further to the upper right is red Mars (magnitude 1.0), and Saturn (magnitude 0.9) can be seen on the far right. Outside the same longitude area as Beijing, this "four stars in a row" can also be seen, but there are some differences in time.
The eight planets in the solar system basically orbit the sun on the same plane, the ecliptic plane. From the earth, the other seven planets and the sun almost all move around the same great circle across the celestial sphere, that is, the ecliptic. Therefore, it can be understood that they are connected in a line at any time, but in most cases, this is not the case. The "line" is too long and has no ornamental value.
According to experts, “The reason why this time is worth watching is because these four bright planets visible to the naked eye are aligned within a very narrow range, and this situation occurs about every two years. once.
In terms of time interval, the "Seven Stars in a row" occurs once every 30 years. Although it is rare in a person's lifetime, it occurs frequently and is not uncommon from the perspective of the large scale of the universe. On December 10, 2149, the "Eight Stars Alignment" will occur. The probability of this celestial phenomenon is relatively low, occurring approximately once every 6,000 years.
On November 29, 2019, there was a celestial phenomenon of four stars in a row, which means that Saturn, Venus, Jupiter and the moon appeared in the sky at the same time and connected in a straight line, referred to as the four stars. Xinglianzhu, also called Xinglianzhu.
"Four Stars in a Link" just as the name suggests: four planets in the sky appear at the same time at a certain moment and are connected in a straight line. Many people can't help but ask, what does this celestial phenomenon mean?
Of course, in ancient times when the scientific concept of development was not sound, astronomy was the earliest to develop among various disciplines. People closely linked celestial phenomena with people, things, and things on the earth. In the "Book of Changes", "Heaven" The guiding thoughts of "Looking down at the astronomy to see the good and bad" and "Observing astronomy to observe events" established that the purpose of observing astronomy is to predict changes in the human world, and established that Chinese astronomy is not aimed at studying the natural world, but through astronomy. Phenomenon to prove national political, military and other major events.
The most famous one is Yinghuo Shouxin, which means Mars stays in the heart, symbolizing the death of the emperor, which is the most ominous.
During the period of Emperor Cheng of the Han Dynasty, Yinghuo Shouxin appeared. Emperor Cheng of the Han Dynasty listened to the words of a warlock who was good at stargazing and transferred the disaster to the Prime Minister Zhai Fangjin. Zhai Fangjin committed suicide immediately. Of course, this trick did not work, and Emperor Cheng of the Han Dynasty died in the same year.
"Why are there catastrophes in the sky? Therefore, I condemn others and make them aware of their actions, in order to make them repent and cultivate their virtues.”
In history, every time an abnormal celestial phenomenon occurred, something big was bound to happen, which was often accompanied by the emperor's actions such as amnesty for the world, exemption from corvee, and picketing of officials.
In ancient times, the meaning of the four consecutive stars was believed to be
In ancient times, the moon was not considered a star and was called "lunar moon". Therefore, according to ancient astrology, the horoscope on November 29 should be It's called: Samsung Lianzhu.
Whether it is a "four-star continuum" or a "three-star continuum", once a continuation of the stars occurs, in ancient times it was easy for the stars to "offend" each other. The ancients believed that if the stars in a line are not arranged properly, they will conflict with each other, which is called "infringement".
The four-star continuum occurs at least once every 30 years, which has a greater impact on the earth's magnetic field and can easily lead to disasters. In particular, the energy radiated from the inside out by the four stars will have a considerable impact on the future fortunes of people with the wood attribute and those with more "wood" in their horoscopes.
Ban Gu's "Astronomical Chronicles": "If the three stars are combined, it is said to be a shocking position, and it is said to be absolute. There are soldiers and mourning outside, and a king is established. "
"Astronomical Chronicles" of the Han Dynasty: "If the four stars are combined, it will be a big soup, soldiers and mourning will occur together, gentlemen will be worried, and small people will flow away."
"Jingzhou Zhi": "If the four stars are combined in one house, the country will be king. The virtuous will prosper and maintain the ancestral temple, and the unvirtuous will be mourned. If the three stars unite in one house, the country will be strong if they cultivate virtue, and those without virtue will suffer. If the three stars unite and fight, the world will be in turmoil. "
How often do four stars in a row occur?
A rare "four stars in a row" accompanying the moon for 5 consecutive days
A rare "four-star continuation" has accompanied the moon for 5 consecutive days. Jupiter, Venus, Mars and Saturn are arranged in a straight line from low to high, almost equidistant, performing a rare "four-star continuation". The several planets involved in this "four-star series" are all bright stars. It is rare that the "four stars in a row" accompany the moon for 5 consecutive days.

According to astronomical science experts, from April 24 to the early morning of April 28, Jupiter, Venus, Mars and Saturn will appear together with the moon, creating a celestial phenomenon of "four stars in a row accompanying the moon". As long as the weather is clear and the atmosphere is transparent, the Chinese public can witness this rare and interesting scene with the naked eye for five consecutive days.

In late April, under fine weather conditions, people can see Jupiter, Venus, Mars and Saturn in a straight line from left to right, from low to high, in the low sky in the east at dawn every day. This is commonly known as Planetary "linking" phenomenon.
On the morning of April 16, 2022, the "four stars in a row" of wood, metal, fire and earth were recorded over the urban area of Beijing. (Video material provided by Beijing astronomy enthusiast Wang Junfeng, post-production: Hu Yanzhu)
"The relative positions of these four planets will change every day, especially the distance between Venus and Jupiter will be getting closer and closer. The changes are very obvious and can be seen every day until May 1st when Venus and Jupiter are extremely close. Astronomical phenomena," said Xiu Lipeng, director of the Tianjin Astronomical Society and an expert in popularizing astronomy.

After April 24, the moon will move into this area of the sky and accompany Saturn, Mars, Venus and Jupiter in turn. Among them, the moon will be closest to Saturn on the 24th and 25th; it will be closest to Mars on the 26th; it will be closest to Venus on the 27th; and it will be closest to Jupiter on the 28th.

"During this period, with the appearance of the first ray of sunlight in the morning, Mars and Saturn, which are less bright, will gradually fade out of the sky, and only bright Venus and Jupiter will continue to stay beside Moon Girl until the sky is completely bright. "Xiu Lipeng said, "If the interested public observes the same time for five consecutive days, they will find that the moon is not only getting thinner day by day, but also gradually moving eastward, which is very interesting. "
Here are the moon phases from April 24th to 28th. (Produced by: Hu Yanzhu)
Xiu Lipeng reminded that if interested members of the public want to witness the "Four Stars in a row accompanying the moon", they must get up early. The best time is 30 minutes to 60 minutes before sunrise. When observing, they should choose an open space in the southeast with a wide field of vision and no clear sky. Light-polluted sites, such as suburbs and mountains, can be appreciated with the naked eye. In the meantime, those who get up early can also observe the faint, arch-shaped Milky Way.
What is rare is that the public in some places (such as Beijing) will also see the rare scene of the Chinese space station briefly "encountering" the "Four Stars and the Moon". If you observe in a city, affected by morning light and lights, you may only see the "double star with the moon" staged by Venus and Jupiter, but it is also very exciting.
The rare "four stars in a row" accompany the moon 2 for 5 consecutive days
"Four stars in a row", "double stars accompanying the moon", Mercury's eastern distance... Starting from mid-to-late April this year, a "star map" with planets as the "protagonists" will appear in the night sky. Wang Kechao, director of science popularization at the Purple Mountain Observatory of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, said that the "planet show" that started on April 18 is of great viewing value. Among them, the "four stars in a row" of wood, metal, fire and earth is a wonderful celestial phenomenon that can only be seen once every few years.
Wang Kechao introduced that in the early morning of April 18th, 19th and 20th, Jupiter, Venus, Mars and Saturn lined up in a straight line almost equidistantly from low to high, performing a rare "four-star series". The several planets involved in this "four-star series" are all bright stars.
Among them, Venus, the brightest planet in the sky, reaches magnitude -4.2, Jupiter, the second brightest, reaches magnitude -2.1, and Mars and Saturn are also very bright. The stars in the sky will be bright and very eye-catching. If the weather is fine, the public can choose the open space in the southeast with a wide view to enjoy this magical scene.
After April 24, the moon gradually approaches the "four stars in a row" formation, and from April 27 to 28, it forms a "double star with the moon" landscape together with Jupiter and Venus. At that time, the moon will be in the shape of a moth, accompanied by two bright stars, like a romantic "star and moon picture".
Mercury’s eastern elongation on April 29 will bring a successful conclusion to the “planet show” in April. Wang Kechao said that as the planet closest to the sun, Mercury always "wanders" around the sun, so it is difficult for people to see it. Generally, it can only be found with the help of equipment in the twilight and morning light. The eastern elongation on the 29th provides a good opportunity for the public to directly view Mercury.
"During Mercury's eastern elongation at the end of the month, Mercury will appear as an evening star in the low sky in the west after sunset. Interested members of the public can observe it directly with the naked eye." Wang Kechao said.

The above is all about the meaning of the celestial phenomenon of four stars in a row and how many years a continuation of five stars appears in the sky, as well as the related content of the celestial phenomenon of four stars in a row. I hope it can help you.
