Summer Triangle

I was very tired tonight. Still I pushed myself. I brought out the blanket, binoculars and lied down. The binoculars that I use for birdwatching is heavy. I will look for the smaller ones that I bought from Bed, Bath and Beyond.
I could see lots of stars through the binoculars. What caught my attention through it is a colorful star. Bluish, greenish but it might be Altair? from the Summer triangle.
How much we miss by ding stargazing in between buildings. Now I see, why it needs to be done in an open area.

Saturn in Scorpio

My husband once in a while reminds me of how I said I love to lie down in the backyard and look at the stars. When we go on the night walk, we see constant stars. In 2010, I had a wonderful experience of seeing the Milkyway and watching the Orion go up, star by star.
There was a molecular structure kind of collection of stars which turned out to be Saturn in Scorpio. What does saturns move into scorpio mean for you
