5 planets will be visible before sunrise until July 20
If you need more reasons to wake up early in the morning - or more excuses to stay up until dawn - then the heavens will be granting your wish as five naked eye planets will be visible in the sky, just before sunrise, until July 20.
According to the Philippine Astronomical Society (PAS), naked eye planets Jupiter, Saturn, Mars, Venus, and Mercury will be visible at around 5 a.m. until July 20, given that the skies are clear and there are no obstructions from your viewpoint.
Below is an image captured by astronomer Edmund Rosales and shared on PAS's Facebook page.

In case you're wondering why Uranus and Neptune are not included in the list of planets to watch out for, it's because these two outer planets in the solar system are not visible to the naked eye, meaning you'd need a telescope to see them.
So, if you want something exciting to look forward to when you get up in the morning - or want to end your day with an amazing sky show, if you're a day sleeper - then you know what to do.
Find the best open space in your home, grab a seat, look up to the sky, and enjoy!
