Find Orion, then run your eyes up perpendicular from the belt of Orion to the 2 bight stars not far away, that will be Castor and Pollox of Gemini, just continue to look in that general direction.

Note in the picture below they are close to the horizon, right now they should be fairly high in the sky kinda south west right now.

I have no idea where Orion is or even what I am supposed to be looking for. I just downloaded a free star gazing app and about to go outside and try again. It's cold though, so if I don't see something within a few minutes I'll lose interest
