Organize Your Week With The Energy Of Each Day
I started getting into astrology a few years ago when my friend Didi read my birth chart to me. I felt so understood and became fascinated. As time has passed, learning more about astrology has become a fun hobby of mine. It’s always fun to see how it resonates with myself and others.
The most recent rabbit hole I’ve gone down is discovering that each day of the week carries a certain energy. I think most of know that this applies to seasons, such as a “virgo season” (which falls between August 23-September 22) being associated with back-to-school, getting organized, decluttering and refocusing on routines after the summer.
However, we can also use this in our day to day lives to help us align our activities with the energy that’s present. Thus could help life feel smoother, more intentional, and allow for magic to unfold.
I went through the activities that I enjoy doing and placed them into the days of the week accordingly. Hopefully this helps inspire you to reconsider how you plan your weeks in the future!
