How it is calculated

Daytime (sunrise to sunset) and night-time (sunset to the next sunrise) are each divided into eight equal parts. The first daytime part belongs to the lord of the weekday; the rest follow the order of the planetary hours. Because sunrise changes with the date and your city, so do these times.

Times can differ by a minute from other almanacs, which calculate sunrise slightly differently.
