Understanding the origins of each day of the week helps us appreciate why witches and others do spells and rituals on certain days of the week.
Monday--The DAy of the Moon
Monday is the Moon Day. This is a day to harness the moon's energy and focus on issues related to women's health, fertility and the domestic scene.
Tuesday--The Day of Honor
The name comes from the warrior god Tui, or Tiw, of Teutonic mythology. Tuesday is a time to focus on masculine vibrations for invocations relating to hunting, competition, or sporting prowess. This day of Mars is also good for goal setting, motivation, and courage.
Wednesday--The day of Wisdom
This day is named after Odin, or Woden, the great Anglo Saxon god of war and wisdom. Meditation and focus on learning, study, travel, and communication are best done on this day, the day of Mercury.
