Today boasts a picturesque combination of celestial objects with Taurus, as the moon will be waxing and at its first-quarter phase, often colloquially called a half-moon, which occurs halfway between the new moon and full moon. It will be located almost precisely halfway between the red star of Aldebaran, the bull's eye, and Mars, which is currently cruising through the constellation.
