Hi Cassie.
Well done.
Which direction does this window face?
Re the planisphere,
Assuming it is a Southern Hemisphere one
(it should say it is aligned for Sydney probably like 33 South; 151 East or thereabouts)
You align your local time (but not daylight saving)
with the Month and Date,
by rotating the disk.
Then hold it above you eyes with South (on the planisphere) pointing towards South,
or North pointing toward North. (depending on which way you are looking)
And then the positions on the planisphere should line up with what you are seeing in the sky.
