    In many traditions of Paganism and Wicca, days of the
    week are very important aspects of effective spellcasting. 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!
