The First Quarter Moon is Wednesday, October 13. Three bright planets are seen in the early evening sky. Venus is readily visible in the early evening sky and is close to the bright sat delta Scorpii on the 9th. On the 10th Venus, the crescent Moon and the bright star Antares from a triangle. Saturn and Jupiter are visible in the evening sky with Jupiter dominating once Venus has set. The First Quarter Moon forms a line with Jupiter and Saturn on the 13th and the waxing Moon is close to Saturn on the 14th.

Mercury is lost in the twilight.
Venus is visible in the early evening when the sky is fully dark. I have been able to see Venus from just after sunset and it is easily seen over 2 hours after sunset, longer if you have a clear western horizon. When the sky is fully dark you can see Venus above the western horizon and bright Jupiter above the north-eastern horizon. Venus is below the head of the Scorpion making a rather beautiful sight in the early evening.
Jupiter is now rising before sunset and is readily visible when the sky is fully dark. Saturn and Jupiter form a line in the sky. Jupiter was at Opposition, when it was biggest and brightest as seen from Earth on August the 19th, and is still excellent in even small telescopes. The First Quarter Moon forms a line with Jupiter and Saturn on the 13th.
