அகோரை

இரண்டரை நாழிகைக் காலம்
ஒரு மணி நேரம்
வெயில் மிகுந்த நாள்
அஞ்சத்தக்கவன்

An astrological division of the day into sections of one hour
or two and a half nalikies each
in which the seven planets reign successively
succeeding each other once in every cycle of seven hour The order of succession is as fol lows
Sun
Venus
Mercury
Moon
Saturn
Jupiter and Mar From this it follows as a matter of course
that the planet which gives name to the day commences its reign at sun-rise
