There are five planets that are generally visible to the naked eye.
In September 2009, Mercury and Saturn are too close to the Sun to be seen.
Jupiter rises just before sunset, and is visible most of the night.
Venus and Mars rise a couple of hours before dawn, and are easily visible in the eastern sky before the Sun rises. Venus is the incredibly bright one, and Mars has a distinct reddish tint, so they're both fairly easy to pick out.
