Clock time is not real time, it is an abstraction based on the hexagram, the star of Remphan. It is derived from the Babylonian number system, base 60 (minutes/seconds) and base 12 (hours). There are 12 points on a hexagram.360° in a circle.Each degree = 60 arcminutes.Each arcminute = 60 arcseconds. What you think of as time, when you look at the clock, is an abstraction. In this way, the Babylon clock casts a mathematical spell on your mind.
Round and round we go
Did you ever feel at odds with time?
Can you hear the gears turning?

>>41529496The hour hand is the sun, second hand the moon. Hour=HorusAll of this was put into play in the 16th century by Pope Gregory XIII.
>>41529496Mechanical time and personal time are both real for different purposes.
>>41529620Why did Romans change the numerals on the clocks, IIII to IV and VIIII to IX
>>41529496I was talking about the clock and time in my thread. >>41529146HereBut yeah, looking at the calendar, timekeeping, daylight savings, these seems like ways to fuck with people rather than giving them structure.Glorantha calendar with 2 holy weeks at the end of a year seems like a good idea, 13 equal months, every numbered day is on the same day a year, make clocks track sun up and down and let hours of the day go faster or slower depending on the year, give people more time at home in the winter, and do the opposite of daylight savings to make the sun last longer into the afternoon in the winter time.I swear this is what we used to do with daylight savings, it makes no sense to make it get dark at 5:30pm just to have it be kinda light out at 6:30 am, no one gives a fuck about the morning, and it’s fucking dreary and dark anyways, plus no one leaves the house before 8 unless they’re already up fucking early to commute or go to the gym. Daylight savings makes ZERO sense.
>>41529657Apparent solar time and mean solar time
>>41529694Without the sun and the moon, how would we measure time?Theres another unaddressed matter causing some confusion, that the stars are no longer conforming to their orbits.
>>41529698Chronos and Kairos.
>>41529773Structured time and fluid time, then theres the clock, a mathematical device
>>41529727Quartz timekeepers literally measure vibrations of a crystal. If we lived underground with no sun or moon, we could use them just the same.People who do live without the sun have reported that they extend the their days out to be longer than the days we actually have, they’ll stay awake longer, then sleep longer, but not much longer. Studies show that people very quickly shift to a 25 hour day, but over prolonged time, can shift to a 48 hour day.
>>41529919>Quartz timekeepers literally measure vibrations of a crystal. If we lived underground with no sun or moon, we could use them just the same.You could use any number system from base 2. Just a counting device, it doesnt measure space-time.
What time is it?
>>41529496This is the true cycle.One of many.But this one is more than arbitrary.Clock time is not arbitrary either, it just moves so slow you, OP, think it doesn't matter.Like sand in an hourglass, these are the days of our lives.
