Let us expand this a bit more.
The whole Day from 6 am to the next morning 6am is divided into eight parts.
The first part is ruled by Surya (eastern direction). Hence the activity favored is going to the temple, praying etc.
The second part is ruled by mangal (south east), A time for strenuous physical workout, energy level is maximum.
Third part is ruled by Guru. Recite lord Vishnu's name/s. eat well.
Fourth part is ruled by Budha. This is a time for play as well as for learning.
fifth part is ruled by Shukra. A time for pleasures and to spend time with spouse. finish food by this time.
Sixth part is ruled by shani. Time for rest and sleep.
good time for Tapasyaa.
Seventh is rued by chandra. It is a time to rest the mind, . yogis spend this time meditating for perfect mind control.
The last part is ruled by Raahu. this is the time when theives are most active as most people are fast asleep and almost like dead. This is the time of Brahma Muhuratha, A wise person does japa during this time, trying to get out of the clutches of Raahu.
Again the day dawns with Sun infusing life with his golden rays.
The wise follows the Kaalachakra as it is the natural order of things. Other ignore it at their own peril.

There are multiple uses of the kaalachakra.
One of the primary uses of this is that it shows us as to how to utilize the day.
Divide the whole day of 24 hours into 8 parts, starting from 6 o'clock in the morning each 1\8 th part will be ruled as per the kaalachakra.
the first 3 hours is ruled by the Surya, next is ruled by Mangal, followed by Guru, Bhudha, Shukra, Shani, Chandra and Raahu respectively.
During the day the activity shown by the Graha ruling the Kaala for that part of the day is beneficial and will give good results.
Many adepts adapted themselves according to the kaalachakra for their daily routine.
Rishirahul and vivek.

While you have explained some uses of digchakra, how do we use kaalachakra? The association of thithis with planets had already been covered in Panchaanga lesson.
