No need to wait, it is visible tonight and really easy to find, it is very big and bright in my 15x70 binos and easy to spot in smaller gear. And having a look when the moon is there will help you appreciate more once you can look without a moon.
Easy to find. locate Saiph, its the top right and of the four stars in Rrion that form his knees and shoulders, then move past Rigel (the top left hand star) and then the same distance, then move up a little bit and there it should be (provided you have a nice wide field!).
