planetary hours chart
This is the part of the chart that does not depend on the city: the sequence of rulers across the 24 hours of each weekday. What changes from place to place is only the start and end times, never the order of the planets.
Sun, Venus, Mercury, Moon, Saturn, Jupiter, Mars; then it repeats.
Starts at the Moon and follows the Chaldean order.
Venus, Mercury, Moon, Saturn, Jupiter, Mars, Sun.
The Chaldean order itself, from Saturn to the Moon.
Jupiter, because Sunday's hour 12 belongs to Saturn.
Three places ahead of the Sun: the Moon, Monday's ruler.
They are 24 divisions of the astrological day: 12 between sunrise and sunset and 12 between sunset and the next sunrise. Each hour is ruled by a classical planet (Saturn, Jupiter, Mars, Sun, Venus, Mercury or Moon), in a fixed sequence that starts with the planet of the weekday.
The order of the planets is the same anywhere. Start and end times vary with the city and date, because they depend on the local sunrise and sunset.
Because the day takes its name from the ruler of its first hour, and hour 25 of a day always lands 3 places ahead in the Chaldean order. From the Sun, three steps lead to the Moon, and so on.
Three or four. The first three planets of the day's sequence rule 4 hours and the next four rule 3.
