Planetary Hours: Are They For Real?, and if they are, what is the mechanism Options

Hello all,

Trying to get that ugly brand of "3 posts probation" off of my avatar. Apparently replying doesn't count.

So, any thoughts on the planetary hours?

I would have to say I think aspects are much more important than "astrological hours", I don't particularly agree with hours being ruled by planets unless you are referring to which planet is on the midheaven or ascendant. The way I see the planets is they reflect what is in the air, the zeitgeist so to speak. That term comes up every now any then in astrological literature too.

ellmaring mentioned the moon, and "planetary hours" more in the terms, I think, that you were using. I personally do not believe the moon merits a stronger focus than other planets because in my experience all the planets play a huge part what is going on. Some people may make the argument that the moon and sun are the foci which dominate the sky but I disagree. For example mars may just operate in the ego at a different level, and be more prone to activation when it is in the right place. Sure nothing is important without emotions and the ego (moon/sun) but being able to feel and be aware means nothing if nothing exists to be observed (rest of the planets). People might disagree and have good reasons when they do, but simply put this is what I think. I could go more in-depth about it if you brought up specific points.

As to what is causing this sort of synchronicity, or string of coincidences , no one knows. I would say the Creator of everything is who, instead of what, causes this, i.e. intelligent design. As for the mechanics I have no opinion that I can reasonably argue for.
