Correspondences to the Days of the Week

In many traditions of Paganism and Wicca, days of the week are very important aspects of effective spell casting. For example, spells to do with abundance or prosperity could be done on Thursday, because it is associated with riches and desire. When casting a spell concerning business or communication, one might prefer to work on a Wednesday due to its associations.

While not all traditions follow this rule, when you're doing any sort of magical working, always be sure to document the day of the week you're performing the spell.

You might be surprised later on to see some connections!
