It is time - yes, but please not with this wrong image. Always think about the parameters you are ignoring. (Fancy colors do not help)!
What parameters am I ignoring? The ‘fancy’ colors are the arg of the spherical harmonic, which is why you see it repeat after a half-rotation

That accounts for all degrees of freedom in the angular wave function, as I’ve superimposed real and imaginary parts colored by arg(z)
