Lunar Calendar with Chaldean Planetary Hours

Reading time: 2 min

For the purpose of Magick and Theurgy going back to ancient times a lunar time-keeper was used which reveals the magical calendar, coincidentally being the agricultural calendar as well. To determine if a planet rules an hour of the day or night, a Lunar Moonth must be calculated separate from the Solar Gregorian calendar we use in daily life. For the purposes of the Moonth, in this system, which was luckily saved from fragments left by the Chaldeans, Ge’ez speaking Ethiopians and others the Month begins at sunrise after the New moon and proceeds for 4 weeks of 7 days. This disregards the number of New Moons in a Solar year or reconciliations like leap days or weeks. The first Day of the month was originally Saturn’s Day in this online Calendar in keeping with the research of Aurum Solis but owing to renewed emphasis on Solar Worship, it has arranged itself into a system starting on the Sun’s day and with the week ending on Saturn’s Day. Because the month is 28 days exactly despite the moon’s period being a fraction over 29 days, there are indeterminate days during Solar months before the next new moon. Rather than using hours of exactly 60 minutes, each day is divided into 12 Day hours and 12 Night hours by calculating the periods between sunrises and sunsets. Different groups of peoples in the region counted days begining at Sunrise or Sunset, but as our calendar Begins at Sunrise after the sighting of the New Moon on a Sunday, our days should probably start with Sunrise. If one wanted to perform an action ruled by a Planetary Intelligence or Deity, or perhaps more than one, the auspiciousness of the day and hour can be calculated using this calendar.
