Structure Your Week According To the Zodiac Calendar
In the Zodiac and Planetary Calendar all days are not created equal. Discover how to organize your week with Astrology to increase ease, efficiency, and flow.
Exploring the Planetary Purpose of the Days of the Week
The days of the week are more than mere divisions of time; they carry deep symbolic meanings rooted in ancient traditions and planetary influences. Each day is associated with a particular planet, which influences its character and the activities that align best with that energy. Learning to organize your week with astrology can increase your energy levels, allow ease and flow into your life and work, and give you a greater ability to tap into intuitive guidance.
While modern society and workdays treat Monday-Friday as all equal, nothing could be further from the truth. Each day holds its own sacred intentions and energy and learning how to tap into that can take your life, love, and travel to a whole new level.
Read on to discover how to Organize Your Week With Astrology!
1. Sunday: The Day of the Sun
Planetary Influence: Sun
Element: Fire
Purpose: Vitality and Self-Expression
Sunday is ruled by the Sun, symbolizing vitality, confidence, and leadership. It also symbolizes our true selves in our astrology chart, as well as the aspects and activities that make us “shine our brightest.” This day is perfect for setting intentions, focusing on personal growth, and engaging in activities that inspire joy and creativity. It’s an excellent time for self-care, play, and connection via activities and people that make you feel the most like yourself. The sign of Leo will especially bask in the glory of this day.
👉👉I use this day to go out in nature, hike, draw, read, play with my pets, talk/ meet up with friends– all the things that make me feel the most…like me!
This is a day of fun, creativity, and a deep sense of connection to your true self. Use it to get into alignment with your truest sense of connection for the week ahead.
2. Monday: The Day of the Moon
Planetary Influence: Moon
Element: Water
Purpose: Intuition and Emotions
Monday, associated with the Moon, embodies intuition, emotions, and nurturing. This day encourages us to reflect on our feelings, engage in self-care, and foster deeper connections with ourselves and others. It’s a great time for creative pursuits and exploring artistic expressions. Embrace the softer, more introspective energy of Monday, allowing yourself to process emotions and set intentions for the week.
Monday is a great day to connect with your intuition, meditation practice, or some of the more gentle and comfortable aspects of your business or life. If you are a parent you could use it as a day to connect with your children, as the Moon is representative of the mother.
You could also spend time in nature or near water(try Moon Bathing!) to get into a more relaxed and intuitive flow. Cancer(ruled by the moon) might also feel especially intuitive and tuned in today.
👉👉 I use this day for connection with my intuition, clients, and guides. It is a day centered around intuition, meditation, and client sessions. I also use it to receive wisdom that helps guide my week.
Utilize this day to connect with your intuition, nature, and meditative or expansive practices and aspects of your business and life.
3. Tuesday: The Day of Mars
Planetary Influence: Mars
Element: Fire
Purpose: Action and Courage
Tuesday is ruled by Mars, the planet of action, courage, and energy. This day is ideal for initiating new projects, pursuing goals, and taking bold steps forward. The dynamic energy of Mars can fuel motivation, making it a great time for physical activity, competition, and assertiveness. Whether tackling a challenging task or engaging in sports or physical activity(this is my heaviest workout day) harnessing Mars’ energy can lead to success and empowerment. This is an especially important day for Aries(also Scorpio) as there is a lot of excess Mars energy today.
👉👉I use this as my “business” day. I write blog posts, work on social media, pay bills, send invoices, set appointments, pitch publications, all of the more fiery and “take charge” aspects of my life and business.
This is a “Taking Care Of Business Day” a day to act on the guidance and intuition provided on Moony Monday and utilize the action aspects of physical manifestation.
4. Wednesday: The Day of Mercury
Planetary Influence: Mercury
Element: Air
Purpose: Communication and Intellect
Wednesday is associated with Mercury, the planet of communication, intellect, and adaptability. This day supports learning, networking, and sharing ideas. It’s an excellent time for meetings, discussions, and engaging in intellectual pursuits. Utilize the energy of Wednesday to express yourself, connect with others, and expand your knowledge. Writing, studying, and public speaking are particularly favorable on this day.
Dispensing wisdom via the written word is very supported on this day. It’s a great day for newsletters, social media reels/videos, recording or distributing podcasts, or anything else that falls under the fleet-footed Mercury’s domain. Virgo’s and Gemini’s will really shine on this day. Libra and Aquarius might also feel especially inspired to join in on the fun.
👉👉 I use this day for communicating with clients, podcast interviews, returning e-mails, and writing my newsletter.
Use this day for increased communication- Responding to e-mails, podcasts, pitching ideas, conversations with coworkers, friends, etc.
5. Thursday: The Day of Jupiter
Planetary Influence: Jupiter
Element: Fire
Purpose: Expansion and Abundance
Thursday is ruled by Jupiter, the planet of expansion, abundance, and growth. This day encourages optimism and exploration. It’s a wonderful time for setting goals, pursuing new opportunities, and seeking knowledge. Engaging in activities that promote personal and professional development aligns well with Jupiter’s energy. Consider taking time to reflect on your dreams and aspirations, as this day can amplify your efforts toward achieving them.
Manifestation is a dance of duality. Some intuitive, some actionable. Thursday is another actionable day, although it can hold a bit of intuitive guidance as well. Whatever area of your life you wish to expand, it is a good day to focus on it. Sagittarius and Pisces will thrive on this day and might find themselves setting out on or planning their next adventure or creative project.
👉👉I use Thursday as a bit of both. Some admin/assignments such as– freelance articles, pitching, scheduling, etc., and some intuitive–meditating on what I want to bring in, journaling, reading, and interacting with clients on some level, (more on a business side however- scheduling, responding to e-mails, payments, etc. less intuitive wisdom or client readings on this day for me.)
I also use this day for energy healing and clearing, allowing myself to get recentered for Friday. It is over halfway through the week and when you organize your week with astrology you recognize some days are more “rest” and some are more “action.”
Use this day to expand- whether it’s your dreams, travel, or business focus on what you want to bring in more of.
6. Friday: The Day of Venus
Planetary Influence: Venus
Element: Earth
Purpose: Love and Harmony
Friday is associated with Venus, the planet of love, beauty, and harmony. This day encourages connection, romance, and creativity. It’s a perfect time for nurturing relationships, indulging in artistic activities, and celebrating the beauty in life. Whether planning a date night or engaging in creative projects, Friday’s energy promotes enjoyment and connection. Consider surrounding yourself with beauty, whether through art, nature, or meaningful interactions. Taurus and Libra will really feel the connection to this day.
👉👉 I often use this day for networking, collaboration, podcast interviews, and expansive activities. I do client readings, offer insight to friends, access my creativity-write just to write, draw, and spend a lot of time in nature.
Use this day to connect –with friends, loved ones, clients, nature, or your own sense of life and luxury.

Use the grounding energy of Saturn to cultivate stability and responsibility in your life. Capricorns will bask in the disciplined glow of this day.
👉👉I use this as a spiritual study day. I read books on my crafts, do inner child or shadow work, and connect with the Kabbalah Shabbat study(this falls on Saturday mornings for a reason)
Use this day to collect yourself- clean the house, participate in spiritual study, create your budget or to-do list for the week, etc.
