"Hora" (เคนเฅเคฐเคพ) is thought to derive from the Greek "แฝฅฯฮฑ" (hลra, season or hour) or from the Sanskrit "Ahoratra" (full day-and-night cycle). In Vedic astrology, both the Hora divisional chart (D-2) and the planetary hour system share this etymological root. Each of the 168 weekly hours is governed by one of the seven Jyotish Grahas cycling in the Chaldean order, regardless of season or latitude.
Among Vedic Muhurta practitioners the first Hora of the day โ ruled by the weekday's planet โ is most potent. For other tasks: Sun and Jupiter hours support auspicious, public-facing activity; Venus and Mercury hours are excellent for intellectual and creative work; Moon hours benefit family and emotional matters; Rahu, Mars, and Saturn hours are used cautiously for new ventures, though Mars is productive for physical and technical work.
