酉时 · 17:00 至 18:59

The Rooster hour, the hour of You (酉时): the two hours of the clock it covers, from 17:00 to 18:59, and the element and hidden stems it gives the hour pillar.

关于时辰的两个提醒 Two things to know about the hours

一、时辰应以真太阳时计算，不是手表时间。新加坡现在用 UTC+8，钟表以东经 120° 为准，但新加坡地处东经约 104°，真太阳时比钟表慢约 65 分钟。1982 年以前，新加坡的钟表多为 UTC+7:30，那时约慢 35 分钟（1930–1932 年为 UTC+7，1933 年至 1941 年 8 月为 UTC+7:20，1942 年 2 月至 1945 年 9 月为 UTC+9）。另有均时差，全年在约 -14 至 +16 分钟之间。出生在时辰交界前后的人，可能因此差出一个时辰。在排盘里输入出生城市，会按出生当天的时区与均时差自动换算。

First, count the hours in true solar time, the time by the sun at the place of birth, not by the clock. Singapore uses UTC+8 today, which is set for longitude 120° east, but Singapore lies at about 104° east, so true solar time runs about 65 minutes behind the clock. Before 1982, Singapore's clocks were mostly on UTC+7:30, and true solar time then ran about 35 minutes behind the clock (a few shorter periods used other offsets). On top of that, the sun runs a little early or late through the year, by about -14 to +16 minutes (the equation of time). If you were born near the boundary of two hours, this can put you in a different hour altogether. Enter your city of birth on the chart form, and the form converts your clock time into true solar time, using the time zone and the equation of time for your date of birth.

二、时辰不确定时，宁可标明不确定，也不要猜。时柱影响子女宫与晚年运，猜错会带偏整张盘。

Second, if you are not sure of the hour, say so rather than guess. The hour pillar bears on children and on later life, and a wrong guess pulls the whole chart off course.
