When will the "Christmas Star" shine in Ukraine? Here’s a timeline map for all regions.

"The Christmas Star" in 2024 will be the planet Venus, which can be seen with the naked eye just after sunset. This was reported by Universe Space Tech.

The time of the first star's appearance on December 24 varies depending on geographic location. Residents of the Luhansk region will see it first at 15:31, while those in Transcarpathia will see it later at 16:39. In Kyiv, the "Christmas Star" will appear at 15:58, in Kharkiv at 15:37, and in Uzhhorod at 16:39.

It is important to note that the Christmas Star is a significant symbol of the Christmas holiday. It is believed that the celebration can begin with the rise of the first star.

According to biblical legend, the star guided the Magi to the birthplace of Jesus Christ. The true origin of the "Christmas Star" remains unknown: scientists have suggested that it might have been a comet or a rare planetary conjunction.

An unidentified comet appears in Chinese and Korean chronicles around 5 BC. It was seen in the morning in the east, as described in the Bible.

The German astronomer Johannes Kepler noted in 1614 that the "Christmas Star" could have been a temporary conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn. This phenomenon was interpreted as a sign of significant changes in the world.

Moreover, psychologists have previously advised on how to find balance and strength for celebrating Christmas and New Year during wartime. Among the recommendations are getting enough sleep, taking walks in nature, and engaging in "digital detox."
