Sunday, the first day of the week, is Dies Solis ('sun's day'). In ancient Greek it was
called Hermena Heliou. In the Old English language, it was known as Sunnandaeg; in
Middle English Sonenday. All of these titles mean the same thing, the day of the sun.
So today light up those sunny candles (gold, yellow, yellow-orange, neon shades of
orange and yellow and hot pink), wear some luminous colors and break out your gold
jewelry to place around the sunny candles. How about eating some cinnamon rolls or
muffins today and perhaps an orange. Burning cinnamon-scented incense could encourage
those spells for success and/or wealth today. Sprinkle some dried marigold petals around
your house - or across the thresholds - to bring triumph and protection toward you and
your family.
Get outside and turn your face up to the sun. Take a walk and soak up some sunshine!
In my area this is going to be a great day for doing that.
Why Daily Correspondences Are Important - When you add complementary natural
items such as coordinating candles, crystals, herbs, flowers and colors to your daily spells
and charms, you can increase the effectiveness of your witchery. How, you may ask? Well,
these items will help link your Witchcraft together with that day's magickal energies. One
good example of this is the power of color. Every day of the week has its own special
magickal colors. This practical type of magick should never be underestimated, even by the
more experienced Witch. If you select a color that harmonizes with your personal energies
or goals for the day, then you flourish.
As you begin to focus on daily magickal correspondences, you begin to realize that the
simple use of crystals, oils, flowers, and colors not only influence positively your personality
but your thoughts and life as well. These daily correspondences and coordinating natural
items can actually strengthen the effects of a charm or spell. They will allow you more creative
ways to personalize your Witchcraft, and they will help unify your spell work.
