Venus is 7° from 2 beautiful open clusters in Auriga. If you have binoculars and have never seen these clusters, now is a good time to find them! But you need to hurry; Venus and Auriga are sinking fast.
Blue giant Elnath has the distinction of being shared by 2 constellations: Taurus and Auriga.
It's Bayer designation is beta Tauri, but it's alter ego is gamma Aurigae.
