———
a The star is likely the planet Jupiter. On Aug. 8, 3 BCE, Jupiter (the King Planet) and Regulus (the King Star, in the constellation Leo, representing the tribe of Judah) begin appearing together on the eastern horizon just before sunrise. Venus is also in the sky, and between Aug. 10-13, 3 BCE, comes into close conjunction with Jupiter (about 4 arc minutes apart, nearly touching but still distinguishable as separate objects). On Sept. 12, 3 BCE, the constellation Virgo, trailing Leo, rises into the morning sky with the sun positioned at her chest and the moon at her feet (see Rv. 12:1: And a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars [ESV]), perhaps coinciding with the conception of Jesus. Over the next nine months, as Jupiter and Regulus move westward through the night sky, Jupiter comes into conjunction with Regulus three times (on Sep. 14, 3 BCE; Feb. 17, 2 BCE; and May 8, 2 BCE), effecting a crowning motion over Regulus. Climatically, between Jun. 15-19, 2 BCE, on the western horizon at sunset, Venus and Jupiter cross each other again in an extremely brilliant conjunction (at a separation of 1 arc minute, they were indistinguishable to the naked eye), perhaps coinciding with the birth of Jesus. (BethlehemStar.net: This conjunction was so close and so bright that it is today displayed in hundreds of planetaria around the world.)

a The star is likely the planet Jupiter. In Sept. 3 BC,coinciding with the conception of Jesus, [fr. the vantage point of Babylon?,] Jupiter rises in the east in close approach with the star Regulus in the constellation Leo. It passes Regulus three times, crowning it. The constellation Virgo follows it in the morning sky with a slight crescent new moon at her feet [see Rv. 12:1-5]. In June 2 BC, nine months later, coinciding with the birth of Jesus, Jupiter --the biggest planet--converges with Venus(?)--the brightest planet--creating the brightest star in the sky. From the vantage point of Babylon, Jupiter [together with Venus?] sets in the west right over Jerusalem. The magi read this as the Jewish Messiah has been born and head to Jerusalem.

———
a The star is the planet Jupiter. In Sept. 3 BC,coinciding with the conception of Jesus, [fr. the vantage point of Babylon?,] Jupiter rises in the east in close approach with the star Regulus in the constellation Leo. It loops three times around Regulus crowning it. The constellation Virgo follows it in the morning sky with a slight crescent new moon at her feet [see Rv. 12:1-5]. In June 2 BC, nine months later, coinciding with the birth of Jesus, Jupiter --the biggest planet--converges with Venus(?)--the brightest planet--creating the brightest star in the sky. From the vantage point of Babylon, Jupiter [together with Venus?] sets in the west right over Jerusalem. The magi read this as the Jewish Messiah has been born and head to Jerusalem.
