subject: Days Of The Week - What Do They Mean? [print this page] Ever since we have started going to school, we have been taught that there are seven days in the week. But did we ever wonder why only seven? Why not more?
As per the ancient sciences of astrology, the seven days of the week have been organised around the seven planets (technically the Sun and the Moon are not planets but luminaries) visible to the naked eye. Each day of the week is being ruled by a different planet and each of them has a different interpretation. Accordingly, the horoscope of a person born on a Monday will be quite different from the one who was born on a Saturday.
So, what do the seven days of the week actually mean, and represent? Let us explore them, right here.
Monday
Monday is being ruled by the Moon. A person born on a Monday is considered to be sensitive and youthful in nature, traits which are often associated with the Moon. They are also likely to be calm and cool, much like the Moon.
Tuesday
Tuesday is being ruled by Mars. A person born on a Tuesday is often interpreted as someone who is full of energy and is always on the move. They are vibrant individuals with a charming grace of their own.
Wednesday
Wednesday is being ruled by Mercury. A person born on a Wednesday is believed to be someone who worries a lot and gets disturbed pretty easily. They are usually quite restless by nature and thinks too much before taking any action.
Thursday
Thursday is being ruled by Jupiter. A person born on a Thursday is highly likely to travel a lot. They often learn things while being in the move and are always in the lookout for new adventures and places.
Friday
Friday is being ruled by Venus. A person born on a Friday is someone who usually keeps brimming with love. They are not only the donors of love to the planet but are also quite receptive to the feelings of affection.
Saturday
Saturday is being ruled by Saturn. A person born on a Saturday is considered to be quite serious and responsible. They are not the ones who take things lightly and are often pretty disciplined and organised.
Sunday
Sunday is being ruled by the Sun. A person born on a Sunday is usually termed as someone who is pretty wise, reasonable and fair by nature. They are also quite honest individuals who prefers being happy than keep complaining.
So now that you know what each day of the week represents, find out where YOU fit in. Let the planets reveal what your horoscope hold for you in the New Year.
