Here's what the rare six-planet parade will mean for your zodiac sign, according to astrologer Kyle Thomas' predictions shared with PEOPLE exclusively.

Six planets will be in alignment this weekend, with four of them shining bright in one sweeping view. What to know about the planet parade.

Alignments of five or more planets are rare—there will be two more featuring five or more planets this year, but after that the next won’t happen until 2040.

Venus and Saturn will be in conjunction this weekend, appearing side by side in the night sky during January's post-sunset "planet parade."

On Friday 17 January and Saturday 18 January, six planets will line up in the night sky, in an event that some astronomers refer to as a planetary parade. Mars, Jupiter, Neptune, Saturn, Uranus and Venus will appear together in a row, although Neptune and Uranus will only be visible with binoculars or a telescope.

A rare sight is coming to North Texas for the ending of January 2025. Six planets – Mars, Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune, Saturn and Venus will create an arc in the evening sky.

Any clear, cloudless night this month is ideal to spot the planets. To get in on the sighting, go outside on a clear night a few hours after sunset and face south, said Kevin Williams, planetarium director at Buffalo State University.

Rare planetary alignment featuring Venus, Saturn, Jupiter, and Mars promises celestial splendour in the southern hemisphere's twilight skies.

A similar parade of planets took place last June, but only two planets could be seen without any special equipment. This time, four are visible to the naked eye.

Jupiter's Great Red Spot storm, which usually appears dark-red, can be seen shining a lurid blue color in an ultraviolet image of the planet.

Six planets will all be visible at once in the night sky this month, lined up across the sky—but one is set to disappear from view.
