December 6 carries Saclateni, zeta Aurigae — one of the little 'Kids' beside the charioteer, and a remarkable eclipsing binary that fades for weeks once every 2.7 years. Magnitude 3.69, star words load-bearing and duty, culminating near midnight. The day's color is Citron Gray (#E5CC96), a lemon-tinted tone read as a sunlit spot.
