Horaly is a daily companion for traditional astrology timing - planetary hours, day ruler, and moon phase, calculated live for your location. Each layer works together: planetary hours shift by season and sunrise, the day ruler sets the overall tone, and the moon adds phase and zodiac context. Horaly keeps all three in sync so you always know where you stand in the day. PLANETARY HOURS Follow the current hora with a live countdown and progress indicator. Browse the full day schedule across day and night flows. Get notified when the hora changes so you never miss a shift. On Apple Watch, the Wheel view shows the full 24-hour cycle at a glance. The List view gives a quick hora-by-hora breakdown with a NOW indicator. Best/Avoid tells you what the current hora is best - and worst - used for. DAY RULER & MOON See today's ruling planet and the week's rulers at a glance. Explore moon phase, illumination, zodiac sign, degree, lunar day, and age - updated live. LUNAR MANSIONS Follow the Moon through the 28 Arabic lunar mansions (manazil al-qamar), used alongside planetary hours since the Picatrix. See the current mansion with its meaning and Arabic name, when the Moon enters the next one, and what tradition says each mansion favors or hinders. MEETING PLANNER Compare planetary hour quality across two cities to find stronger shared windows. Four views - Week Heatmap, Best Slots, Timeline, and Compare Now - help you decide before you schedule. Add selected windows directly to Calendar. APPLE WATCH A full companion app lives on your wrist: Dashboard, Wheel, List, Day Ruler, Moon detail, Best/Avoid guidance, and Watch face complications showing the current hora and countdown. WIDGETS Current Hora, Now + Next, Upcoming Horas List, Today Timeline Strip, Moon Snapshot, Moon Phase Calendar with lunar day view, and Best Window Today - across Lock Screen, Home Screen, and Apple Watch complications. ALERTS & NOTIFICATIONS Stay in rhythm without having to check the app. Horaly can notify you at the start of each new hora so you never miss a shift. Fine-tune your alert schedule with lead time, and set quiet hours so notifications pause during the night - or any window you choose. Filter by daytime and nighttime alerts, or toggle individual planets on and off to receive only the horas that matter to you: Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, or Saturn. A live preview shows your upcoming alert schedule before you commit to any changes. Built natively for iPhone and Apple Watch. Some features, such as the Meeting Planner, the Moon almanac and most widgets, require Horaly Pro. --- Horaly provides traditional timing guidance for personal planning and reflection.
