Key timings for Friday, April 17
Planetary hours are an ancient timing system that divides each day into 24 unequal periods — 12 during daylight and 12 at night — each governed by one of seven classical planets. Unlike clock hours, their length shifts with the seasons: in Bursa today, each daytime planetary hour lasts about 67 minutes (daylight of 13h 22m ÷ 12). The first hour after sunrise always belongs to the day's ruling planet, and the rest follow the Chaldean order.
Today in Bursa, sunrise is at 06:22 AM and sunset at 07:44 PM (Europe/Istanbul). The day ruler is Venus — the planet that governs Friday and sets the tone for the day. Below you'll find every planetary hour for Bursa today, with the ruling planet and exact start time for each period.

Bursa is under Venus's influence today.
The day ruler is the planet that governs the first hour after sunrise, and its qualities colour the whole day. Today's themes are love, beauty, harmony. This doesn't mean the other planets vanish — they still take their turns through the hours — but Venus's energy is the dominant backdrop.
We pull precise astronomical sunrise (06:22 AM) and sunset (07:44 PM) times for Bursa's exact coordinates, then divide the daylight window by 12 to get the length of each daytime planetary hour (about 67 minutes today). The night period — sunset to the next morning's sunrise — is split into 12 in the same way.
The first hour after sunrise is assigned to the day ruler (Venus), and subsequent hours follow the Chaldean order. Because Bursa's sunrise and sunset shift daily, these hours are recalculated fresh every time you load this page.
