Today is Monday, October 12th 2026.
Witches and magical people have aligned the days of the week with the planets (the sun and the moon count as planets by the way) to their practice for hundreds of years. It’s called Planetary Magick.
Here is an excellent breakdown from Google’s AI:
Planetary magic is a Western esoteric tradition that works with the seven classical planets—the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn—as living forces and intelligences rather than just astronomical bodies. [1, 2]The Seven Classical Planets and CorrespondencesAccording to the College of Psychic Studies, practitioners align rituals, colors, metals, and timing with specific planetary traits: [1]
- Sun: Vitality and success (Colors: Gold, orange; Day: Sunday)
- Moon: Intuition and emotions (Colors: Silver, white; Day: Monday)
- Mercury: Communication and intellect (Color: Yellow; Day: Wednesday)
- Venus: Love, art, and harmony (Colors: Pink, green; Day: Friday)
- Mars: Courage, action, and strength (Colors: Red; Day: Tuesday)
- Jupiter: Abundance, expansion, and luck (Color: Purple; Day: Thursday)
- Saturn: Discipline, boundaries, and structure (Colors: Black, dark gray; Day: Saturday) [1]
Key Practices
- Planetary Hours: Working magic during specific days of the week and planetary hours ruled by the target planet helps synchronize intentions with cosmic currents, a view shared by community discussions on Spells8. [1, 2]
- Talismans and Rites: Practitioners use traditional grimoires (such as the Picatrix) or texts like Planetary Magick by Melita Denning and Osborne Phillips to craft specific seals, invoke planetary spheres, and consecrate astrological talismans. [1, 2, 3]

So for today, we are aligning ourselves with the Moon on a Monday. Only rightfully so; for most people Monday is the start of the work week. Monday is when we ease into the week, for example our response to early morning chatter or demands from us without our coffee or breakfast usually makes us moody and irritable, amirite?
Or being forced to get to work right away on a Monday…why?
Moon = intuition, dreams, subconscious, feminine energy. Working with the moon also opens up your psychic faculties.
So today if have some time before getting ready for school or work – create some quiet time for yourself. Allow your mind to rest, wander, dream and receive psychic information. Doing this before you start your day will be beneficial for your mental health.
I’m aware that not everyone gets to have quiet moments at work. So if you don’t have time, then you can sit in front of the computer and allow your mind to wander. Only do this if you’re not super busy at work.
