A rare and captivating celestial alignment of Venus, Mercury, Mars, the Moon, and the star Antares (Jyesta Nakshatr) adorned the sky in a mesmerizing kite-like formation early on Tuesday. Unfolding at around 6:15 am and lasting until dawn, this celestial display served as a remarkable prelude to the upcoming Makar Sankranti, the popular kite-flying festival scheduled to occur a week later.
