There are four questions that allow us to achieve spatio-temporal adjustment. On some occasions we have felt disoriented in relation to the following questions:
1- What time is it?
2- What day is today?
3- Where am I?
4- What is time?
In question # 3 the answer has been extended with the use of GPS.
With question # 4 we manage to be aware of what time is. Due to its nature it is the only way to become aware of time. The answer is always the same: time is the change-interval duality. By definition, time is the duration of things, between an interval, in a given physical state or situation.

Philochrony (from Greek philo: friend and khronos: time) is the theory that describes the nature of time and demonstrates its existence. According their duration things are classified in: Eternal, durable, perishable, ephemeral, fleeting and nonexistent. The concept of Philochrony was created on March 13, 2009. The concept of change-interval dualitiy on June 30, 2019.

THE MAGNITIVE DUALITY (CHANGE-INTERVAL)
The change-interval duality explains the nature of time. This duality arises because changes are the material basis of time. Time would not exist without these two different characteristics. Change is synonymous of phenomenon. Change is between the interval (a start and an end, a before and an after). This duality is magnitive because is objective (changes), perceptible-imperceptible and measurable (intervals).
1) Change:
- is perceptible.
- is irreversible.
- occurs continuously in the present (duration).
2) Interval:
- is imperceptible, does not produce sensation.
- relates two sequential moments.
- increases continuously, is measurable.

GEOMETRY OF THE TIME LINE
Geometry is the branch of Mathematics that teaches us the construction of figures of one, two or three dimensions.
The postulates of the time line are:
IO AI PI
-----I----------I----------I----------I----------> TIME (hours)
past present future
IO is interval occurred
AI is active interval
PI is potential interval
1- The arrow indicates the direction of time, from past to future.
2- The intervals (O, A, P) are singular. There is only one at a time.
3- The intervals (O, A, P) are sequential.
4- The time line arises from the change-interval duality.
5- The time line is infinite, both backward and forward.

TYPES OF INTERVALS
In the change-interval duality (time), the interval can be:
1) between the start and the end of a phenomenon, and
2) between two unrelated sequential events.
In general, time is the interval that flows continuously between two sequential events. For example, tomorrow is a potential interval (future), today is an active interval (present) and yesterday is an occured interval (past). In an inactive hourglass, there is a potential interval, which when we turn the clock, it becomes an active interval. The current time, for example, 7:16 is the active interval between 7:00:01 and 8:00.
The types of intervals help us to understand time.

THE NATURE OF SPACE AND TIME
Space and time are of the same nature because they are made up dimensions. The difference is that space contains objects or bodies and time contains changes or phenomena. In space (3D) objects are placed and can move in three directions. In time (1D) changes occur sequentially, which have a start and an end. The direction of time is from the past to the future. Space is represented by three coordinates axes: horizontal (x), vertical (y) and transverse (z). Time is represented by a line that is made or extended sequentially (s), such as the progress bars in Computing. The timeline has no direction in space; It is only a spatial representation of time. It is like a cube drawn on paper.
We would not have an idea of silence if we did not know the sound. Similarly, we would not have an idea of space if there were no objects and we would not have an idea of time if phenomena did not occur or everything was static. Therefore, space is the emptiness (infinity) that matter and bodies occupy. Time is the interval (infinity) in which phenomena occur. Before the big bang there was space and time.

THE SOCIAL PHILOCHRONY
The Social Philochrony is the part of Philochrony that deals with the evolution of people as social entities. Not always the social development of a person is consistent with their biological development. A child born in a poor or low-income household will not have the same opportunities as a child born in a rich or high-income household. The Social Philochrony proposes a greater assessment of study and work time. Rulers must worry more about a better preparation of their citizens so that they can enter the labor market more easily. Primary (compulsory), secondary and university education must be free. In underdeveloped countries, a lot of money is spent on projects that do not benefit the majority. The UN must have the power to remove a tyrant ruler and establish free elections.
The Social Philochrony does not propose the implementation of a socialist system, but the opportunity for people to evolve socially.
The Social Philochrony proposes the elimination of prejudices in society because they lead to discrimination. People should not be judged by their skin color, sex, religion, ethnicity, political ideology, etc.

MANIFESTATIONS OF THE TIME PASS
We realize the passage of time in:
1- The continuous occurrence of changes (duration). For example: listen to a song, travel by train or plane, the flow of a river, etc.
2- The transformation of beings (evolution). For example: living things go through different stages in their development until their death.
3- The advance of hours (clock).
4- The succession of days and years.
There was an era when man did not have the division of the day into hours. He realized the passage of time through the succession of days and years and the development of living beings.
Time is not the cause of changes, they come with time, they are time itself. Time = change-interval. Change is transformed into interval giving rise to time.
