Planetary hours
in Rome.

The day, from sunrise to sunset, is cut into twelve equal hours; so is the night, from sunset to the next sunrise. Each hour carries a planet, in the Chaldean order. A planetary hour therefore lasts 60 minutes only at the equinoxes: it all depends on the date and the city. Here are the exact hours for your city; what you do with them is up to you.

Mars, from 06:53 to 07:43: the first hour of a day always goes to the planet of the weekday. The next ones follow the Chaldean order: the Sun, Venus, Mercury, the Moon, Saturn, Jupiter, then Mars again.
