Some of you may know I'm a fan of natural time. I literally run my computer with a local timezone set to solar. Thank goodness XFCE lets me add more than one clock to my panel so I also have civil time.

But I also wanted to keep track of the other kinds of natural time in a single interface. So let's just make everything a clock.

These clock will tell you the time of the day, month, year, all in natural terms for your location. What I like about this verse some more complicated astronomical clocks is each thing being tracked is uses the same visual expression, vs this.

Version 1

This 2nd version includes estimates on the solar activity cycle, and a few other small details.

Version 2

These may be better opened in their own tab.

If there is interest, I could write an article on how to create a local solar timezone in Linux using the equation of time to stay up to date. Just let me know.
