Have you ever wondered where the term "day" came from? Or what about the names of the week? The days of the week were derived from deities many, many, many moons ago. Have an open mind while reading this, and I challenge you to set an intention each day that aligns with your new knowledge.
Sunday
"Sun's day” came from the Latin term "dies solis.” The sun in astrology is all about vitality and the caregiver of life. Sunday is a timely day to improve one's sense of vigor, agriculture, beauty, hope, and self-expression. Sunday is associated with the colors yellow and gold.
Monday
Monday is derived from the Anglo-Saxon word “monandæg,” meaning moon's day. Monday is ruled by the moon, which represents one’s nurturing instinct. Mondays are best for setting intentions and developing one's intuition. Celebrate life and emotions and make some magic to fix what's broken. Monday is connected to lunar colors like silver, white, or pale blue.
Tuesday
Mars, the assertive and fiery planet, rules Tuesday. This is the day to lead and be courageous. Initiate action and demand justice on a Tuesday. Use this day of the week for magical workings connected to protection and initiation. Assert yourself, make your mark, and stake your claims! Color associations include red and orange and warrior metals like iron and steel.
Wednesday
Wednesday is ruled by Mercury, which governs our mindset. Reason and be clever when making decisions. Analyze, communicate, network, and have open dialogue on Wednesday. Wednesdays are great days to do something new, step up your game, and settle your accounts. This day is associated with the color purple.
Thursday
Thursday is ruled by Jupiter, representing abundance, prosperity, and the principle of expansion. Today, it is easier to achieve high ideals and principles. Expand your horizons, travel, and learn something new on Thursday. This is also the best day to begin a project you care about.

Saturday
Saturn rules on Saturday. A day of commitment and responsibility, but also restriction and delay. With structure comes success, and it's possible to achieve something long-lasting and successful on Saturday. It will require diligent work and a sober, realistic approach. It’s also an excellent time to wrap things up. Focus on creativity, fortune, and hope. Keep the unwelcomed things out and eliminate things that make you miserable.
