I've been watching the planets getting closer each night this month (when its not cloudy of course). The Boston Globe had a good story about the conjunction. It should be noted that in June of 2012 Venus will transit the face of the Sun and won't do this again in our lifetimes.

They're called "spheres" and they're the glass orbs through which the lights of Heaven shine. That's what the Vatican used to tell people, at least.
