I think you'll find it was Venus - also known as the "morning star" even though it is in fact a planet.

I stay in London on the 2nd, yet i could plenty somewhat stay unsleeping North. there is greater of it in section besides, no longer as overcrowded and claustrophobic, there is too greater than a number of a concentration on the magnitude of London and the South. there is marvelous environment in the North, the top District, the Lake District, the North Yorks moors, the Border usa are all greater attainable. The air is that bit chillier and crisper. each and every of the great cities furnish greater or much less what London has to grant and are that bit friendlier. the commercial history is amazingly exciting. finally, what does it for me is, around Tyneside and Newcastle the musical traditions and the enjoying of the Northumbrian pipes. i've got everyday some people who've moved up North from the South by way of the years, and that they have all stayed and prefer it.

It was probably Venus, although Saturn is quite close to it this month and you should have seen them both if it were dark enough. Venus is the brighter of the two. Try again tomorrow, a little earlier and you may see them both. Try a program (free) on the internet called Hello Northern Sky or HNSKY. This shows the sky for any place or date. Just put HNSKY in Google. No, use Yahoo search instead, seeing as we're in Yahoo Answers.

Are you sure it was in the south? The brightest object in the morning sky is Venus, but it's more in the southeast. Sirius is due south, but is not as bright as Venus. Ignore those who answered Jupiter, as Jupiter isn't visible currently in the morning sky. I wish people wouldn't make wild guesses at answers.

Sirius and Mars are almost due south at 06:00, Mars is fainter and redder, but higher in the sky - about 60 degrees. Sirius is only about 20 degrees. Saturn and Venus are as bright or brighter and close together, but they're east south east.

It was Venus.
Venus is the brightest object in sky after Sun and Moon.

Low down in the sky, could possibly be a satellite.
There are a few visible most evenings during the summer.
