By enabling its users to see and thus more vividly experience local solar day and local solar night, etc., the Synclecron invention seeks to somewhat alleviate the modern-day problem of human separation from the flows and ebbs of natural time. It does so via providing a way of mapping and displaying the experiential passage of solar and other day and night to conventional displays of conventional time. The Synclecron invention achieves this by two means. First by utilizing waxing & waning, journeying pairs of hieroglyph circles that alternately travel twice a day through a hieroglyph sky around a hieroglyph earth. And, last, by using a rotating "minute-hour" indicator, which displays where the Synclecron invention's user is in local natural time during each "natural" one-twelfth hour of his or her local natural day and natural night. The invention thus provides a view of passage of local solar day and night, and other solar days and nights, not only personalized to one's latitude and longitude, but also tied to one's time of local sunrise and sunset. As a consequence, the Synclecron invention more wholly informs the minds and bodies of users about the daily and nightly passages of natural time which we each experience every moment of each day and night, and which are not typically derived from most conventional timepieces.
