⚠️ Important note
Planetary hours are a tool for boosting effectiveness and harmonizing your activities, not a rigid dogma. If you urgently need to sign a document or see a doctor, don’t put it off just because of an «unsuitable» hour. Common sense, real circumstances and your personal responsibility always take priority over astrological recommendations.
How to pick an hour: 5 steps
- Identify the sphere of your task — it points to the ruling planet.
- Find the nearest hour of that planet in the table; a safe choice is Jupiter or Venus.
- Day planets (Sun, Jupiter, Saturn) favor daytime; night planets (Moon, Venus, Mars) favor nighttime.
- Time is strong when the hour’s planet is “friendly” with the day’s planet.
- Check the Moon phase and hours marked with caution.
