Arar: The return of the Pleiades star cluster to the eastern horizon has signaled the end of the "Al-Kinna" period and the onset of summer in the skies of Arar. Spotted at dawn, this astronomical event is eagerly anticipated each year by enthusiasts, marking a shift in the season for the Arabian Peninsula.

According to Saudi Press Agency, observers and astronomy enthusiasts noted that the appearance of the Pleiades aligns with ancient Arab traditions, indicating stable weather and rising temperatures.
