Thursday is the day of Jupiter, the largest of the planets and said to be the most powerful. Spellcasters would be wise to use this day for attempting wealth, success and prosperity spells.
Thursday is also associated (in Greek mythology) to Thor – Thor’s day – and some even say that Jupiter and Thor are one in the same. Both are strong and powerful, yet wise and just. Try a small prayer to Jupiter before commencing any ritual on Thursday as a sign of respect. This is the proper day of the week to perform spells and rituals involving luck, happiness, health, legal matters, male fertility, treasure, wealth, honour, riches, clothing, money, desires, business, group pursuits, joy, laughter, and expansion

Today is the day for prosperity work of all kinds. It can also be used for healing work, whether that is a physical healing of an illness or an emotional healing. Also remember that you have to follow up your healing work and prosperity magick and physical action.
I can’t tell you the number of times I have met new witches who complain to me that their prosperity spell or “I need a better job” spell did not work as they expected. They’ll ramble on and on about how much time and money they spent working their magick….but, alas, they had no glorious manifestation of wealth or fabulous job that suddenly dropped out of the sky and landed in their laps.
Then, when I gently ask them, “Did you enchant your resume or application when you filled it out? Did you do a little confidence-boosting spellwork when you went to apply for the job or went to the interview?” typically they give me a blank, confused stare.
Nine times out of ten, their response is, “You mean I have to go out and actually look for the job too?” Um, yes, my dear, you certainly do. Magick follows the path of least resistance, which means it’s going to manifest along the simplest, quickest route. Get out there and hit the pavement. See what you can find. Times are tough and competition for good jobs is fierce, so you need whatever edge you can get. For folks like us, we’re going to get the edge by using our magick and our spellcraft.
Thursdays have such a rich source of magick for us to draw upon that, honestly, the sky is the limit. This is the day associated with the gods of the sky and heavens, after all. Get to know these deities and add their wisdom and magick into your days

The Witches Guide to Thursday, July 6th
Thursday
Jupiter’s (Thor’s) day
⦁ Middle English – thursday or thuresday
⦁ Old Norse– thorsdagr – Thor’s day
⦁ Old English– thunresdæg – Thunder’s day
⦁ Latin – dies Jovis – “Day of Jupiter”
⦁ Ancient Greek – hemera Dios – “day of Zeus”
The name is derived from Old English and Middle English Thuresday (with loss of -n-, first in northern dialects, from influence of Old Norse Þorsdagr) meaning “Thor’s Day”. Thunor, Donar (German, Donnerstag) and Thor are derived from the name of the Germanic god of thunder, Thunraz, equivalent to Jupiter in the interpretation romance.
In most Romance languages, the day is named after the Roman god Jupiter, who was the god of sky and thunder. In Latin, the day was known as Iovis Dies, “Jupiter’s Day”. In Latin, the genitive or possessive case of Jupiter was Iovis/Jovis and thus in most Romance languages it became the word for Thursday: Italian giovedì, Spanish jueves, French jeudi, Sardinian jòvia, Catalan dijous, and Romanian joi.
This is also reflected in the p-Celtic Welsh dydd Iau.
The astrological and astronomical sign of the planet Jupiter is sometimes used to represent Thursday.
Since the Roman god Jupiter was identified with Thunor (Norse Thor in northern Europe), most Germanic languages name the day after this god: Torsdag in Danish, Norwegian, and Swedish, Hósdagur/Tórsdagur in Faroese, Donnerstag in German or Donderdag in Dutch. Finnish and Northern Sami, both non-Germanic (Uralic) languages, uses the borrowing “Torstai” and “Duorastat”. In the extinct Polabian Slavic language, it was perundan, Perun being the Slavic equivalent of Thor.
There are a number of modern names imitating the naming of Thursday after an equivalent of “Jupiter” in local tradition. In most of the languages of India, the word for Thursday is Guruvar- var meaning day and guru being the style for Bṛhaspati, guru to the gods and regent of the planet Jupiter. In Thai, the word is Wan Pharuehatsabodi—referring to the Hindu deity Bṛhaspati, also associated with Jupiter. En was an old Illyrian deity and in his honor in the Albanian language Thursday is called “Enjte”. In the Nahuatl language, Thursday is Tezcatlipotōnal meaning “day of Tezcatlipoca”.

Thursday is a day of royal blues and greens, associated with the planet Jupiter and metals like tin. When it comes to deities, look at leader type gods like Thor, Zeus, and Jupiter. Gemstone correspondences for Thursday include turquoise, amethyst and lapis lazuli, and plant associations can be found in honeysuckle, cinquefoil, and even oak trees.
This is a day for honor, fealty and family loyalty, as well as harvesting, success, and prosperity.
Take advantage of Thursday’s different aspects and do spellwork that brings abundance to you, declares your allegiance, and embraces prosperity.

HAUMEA, A POLYNESIAN GODDESS, was credited with teaching women how to give birth by pushing their babies out from between their legs. Before this, folklore claims that children were cut from their wombs, extracted by knife like a pit from ripe fruit. Thanks to Haumea, women were able to forego this dangerous life passage.
Haumea mated with the god Kane Milohai. Their numerous children included Hi’iaka, who taught the hula dance to the Hawaiians, and Pele, the tempestuous fire goddess associated with volcanoes. One myth claims that Pele was born from the goddess’s armpit, suggesting the overwhelming fertility of Haumea—life was created from all of her body, not just her womb. In some ways, Pele reflected the mirror aspect of Haumea. Just as Haumea creates life, Pele destroys with fire. Haumea was also credited with giving birth to many fantastic creatures who populated the earth.
Also a goddess of vegetation, Haumea is honored as the mother of Hawaii. It is appropriate that a goddess so closely associated with fertility would be tied to this verdant island paradise.

Thursday is the day of the planet Jupiter, dedicated to Thunor(Thor), God of thunder and agricultural work. His parallels in various European traditions are Zeus, Taranis, Perun, Perkunas and St. Olaf. The faith of the Northern Tradition holds Thursday sacred, just as Islam reveres Friday, Judaism the Sabbath(calculated from sunset on Friday to sunset on Saturday), and Christianity, Sunday. This is why almost all adages about Thursday are positve, such as “Thursday’s child has far to go,” “Sneeze on Thursday, something better,” or “Cut nails on Thursday for wealth.” Thursday rules controlled optimism, energetic growth, physical well-being and material success.

Videos, Sagittarius, New-moon, Moon, Full-moon, Astrology
No matter what your Moon sign is, we are all honorary Sagittarians when the Moon moves through that sign. The energy of Sagittarius is very expansive, free, and visionary. If you’re normally very pragmatic or cynical, you might find that you’re a little more optimistic than usual. Your mind will start considering all the possibilities of a situation rather than just focusing on the potential roadblocks. Your thoughts could end up in uncharted territory!
A Sagittarius Moon will renew your sense of adventure, and you could have the desire to pick something (no matter how big or small) and just go for it. Sagittarius loves the idea of traveling and expanding their horizon. This can be something physical like traveling to a faraway place, or taking their mind on a trip with an education pursuit. Don’t be surprised if you have the urge to register for that class you’ve been thinking about taking, or if you decide to book a last-minute vacation during this transit.
New Moon in Sagittarius
New Moons are a time of new beginnings and new emotional cycles. The Sagittarius New Moon asks us to plant the seeds of optimism. This is when we allow ourselves to leave the painful parts of our pasts behind so we can visualize a bigger and brighter future. This idealistic outlook doesn’t match the realities of everyone’s life. Many people are suffering in economic, emotional, physical, and spiritual ways. It’s not difficult to find areas of frustration and fear inside us and in the environment around us. The Sagittarius New Moon offers you hope, and all the wonderful things that hope brings. Instead of seeing a situation as it is, you will be able to imagine what your situation could be.
Full Moon in Sagittarius
Unlike the New Moon, which is about starting something new, the Full Moon is about reflecting on what we planted six months ago, and how it’s coming to fruition. It urges us to consider what’s next. This is an interesting time because the Moon in far-seeing Sagittarius opposes the Sun in nearsighted Gemini. Gemini is concerned with things that are nearby while Sagittarius wants us to contemplate what’s on the distant horizon. We might be overwhelmed with ideas and information, but the Sagittarius Full Moon helps us focus our attention on long-term goals and higher principles rather than getting lost in a flood of small details.
If you were born with the Moon in Sagittarius
Lunar Sagittarians are the free spirits of the zodiac, and are most fulfilled when they have the freedom to live life on their own terms. They feel their best when they can maintain their independence and come and go as they please. People with this bold Moon sign are always game to try something new, and their nomadic nature often has them daydreaming about their next adventure! This sign doesn’t ask, “Why?” It asks, “Why not?”
Someone with a Sagittarius Moon has a passion for learning. This Moon sign is all about expansion, and that includes broadening their minds. Sagittarius chases after wisdom, and they do this by seeking out the truth about the people and world around them. This Moon sign likes to dabble in philosophy, psychology, religion, or whatever subject might help them in their pursuit of knowledge.
Optimism is at the heart of people born with a Sagittarius Moon. Their happy-go-lucky demeanor and positive outlook on life give them an adaptability that makes it easy to roll with all of life’s punches. Some mistake their idealism for having an unrealistic outlook on life, but it’s really that Lunar Sagittarians believe in their heart that everything will work out for the best in the end.

Pluto’s peak appearance, a globular cluster in Ophiuchus, and other amazing things to look for in the sky this week.
By Richard Talcott
Thursday, July 6
The waxing gibbous Moon passes just 3° north of Saturn this evening, helping point the way to the magnificent ringed planet. The two are on display nearly all night among the background stars of southern Ophiuchus, hanging in the southeastern sky as darkness falls and climbing high in the south by midnight local daylight time. The pair will look nice with the naked eye or binoculars, but telescope users will want to choose another night this week when the Moon isn’t so close to target the magnitude 0.1 planet. Saturn reached its peak just three weeks ago, when it appeared opposite the Sun in the sky, and our view of the ringed planet remains spectacular. A telescope reveals the world’s 18″-diameter disk surrounded by a dramatic ring system that spans 41″ and tilts 27° to our line of sight.
The Moon reaches apogee, the farthest point in its orbit around Earth, at 12:28 a.m. EDT. It then lies 252,236 miles (405,934 kilometers) from Earth’s center.
Friday, July 7
This week offers observers their first peek of Mercury during its current evening apparition. The innermost planet stands 6° high in the west-northwest a half-hour after sunset tonight. Although Mercury glows brightly, at magnitude –0.6, you might need binoculars to spot it initially against the twilight glow. A telescope reveals the planet’s disk, which spans 5.6″ and appears 80 percent lit.
Saturday, July 8
Full Moon officially arrives at 12:07 a.m. EDT tomorrow morning, but it looks completely illuminated all night. It appears low in the southeast as the Sun sets and climbs highest in the south around 1 a.m. local daylight time. The Full Moon resides among the background stars of Sagittarius the Archer throughout the night.
Sunday, July 9
Tonight marks the peak of Pluto’s 2017 appearance. The distant world reaches opposition, which means it lies opposite the Sun in our sky and remains visible all night. It glows dimly at 14th magnitude, however, so you’ll need an 8-inch or larger telescope with good optics to spot it visually. Pluto currently lies in northeastern Sagittarius, some 1.8° east-southeast of 3rd-magnitude Pi (p) Sagittarii. See “In pursuit of Pluto” in the July Astronomy for complete details on finding this world.

Published on Lady Bridget’s Wiccan Ways
My brother tried yesterday to use his own account and he couldn’t. His account kept freezing up, trying to repost and just eating the posts. I tried my account last night and the same thing happened to me. I do not know what WordPress has done to the additional accounts to this site but they are now a mess. Due to this fact and to keep the WOTC going, we are going to be using Lady of the Abyss’ account. To avoid confusion, we are going to state on the post who the post is by. Just look up in the right hand corner of each post and you will see who posted it. This is the only way we know how to solve this problem. We are going to contact WordPress and see if they can assist us. Until that time, we will be using Lady A’s account. We just didn’t want you to think she was out of the hospital and back at work. She is still in the hospital, doing better I must say. We informed her of this situation and she gave us permission to use her account. Now let’s see how this goes.
Please remember we still have the fund drive going on to help with Lady A’s medical expenses. If you would like to donate a dollar or two, that would be great. We also have the grand opening of Magickal Necessities this weekend. We did receive some more of those beautiful candles with the necklaces and charms around them, along with a line of Washes. The candles and the washes will fly out the door. If you are interested in either, you might want to check them out now before the grand opening.
Have a very blessed day,
Mystie
Would you like to donate to Lady A’s “Get Well Quick” Fund? Basically a fund to get Lady A back here quicker so we can stop looking so damn stupid. All donations are great appreciated. Thank you!
For all your magickal needs, shop….
We were planning on getting back on track today but we ran into a huge problem. WordPress doesn’t seem to recognize any other accounts besides Lady of the Abyss’. We have to sign up and re-open our accounts. No wonder Mystie couldn’t get her account to work. I was the last one to open an account and I assumed I wouldn’t have a problem. You know what they say about when you assume something. That old saying turned out to be very true this morning.
This does delay our plans on having the WOTC back on the internet today but it is beyond our control. We are all making new accounts and will be back tomorrow. None of us feel right using Lady of the Abyss’ account even though she said we could. It was in character with Lady Abyss to say we could use her account but it will only be confusing for you. Out of respect for you and Lady Abyss, we will be creating those new accounts today.
Up-date on Lady A: She is currently not doing well at all. She had to be taken back to surgery due to a bleeder. The doctors explained something during her first surgery had been scrapped and slowly leaking blood ever since. She finally lost enough blood that her blood pressure bottomed out and that is when these so-called doctors figured out what was wrong. I know her family kept telling the doctors she looked paler than usual. No response from the doctors. No color in her nails, no response. Finally when she broke down shaking, the doctors paid attention. I do not know what has happened to our medical system besides we don’t have one these days. Lady A is currently back in the ICU for a few days. We have had several requests for the number to her room so people could wish her well. The ICU does not have phones. When she is moved back out on the floor, we will discuss this with Lady A. If she wishes for it to given out, then we will. If she doesn’t, we will respect her wishes. Personally, I don’t think it is a good idea, she needs her rest. We will wait and see on that one.
Don’t forget about the fund raiser coming up this weekend for Lady A and her medical expenses. We have already received our first order and have processed it. Just a reminder, you don’t have to wait till this weekend to purchase items. After you see this new store, you will see why Lady A decided to break with Etsy. This new website carries everything that we wanted to originally carry but Etsy said no. Etsy had given us a retail account and then when the merchandise was put on there, they changed their minds. We could not sell this, nor could we sell that. Since they could not comply with our original agreement, Lady A broke with them and found another platform to sell on. You have a moment today, check out the new “Magickal Necessities.”
I believe that covers everything you might want to know. We are going to make our new accounts and we will be back tomorrow. We apologize for not being back today but the unexpected happened.
Happy Fourth of July!

Get a Jump on Tomorrow, Your Horoscopes for Thursday, June 29th
Good morning dear brothers & sisters of the Craft! What a beautiful day the Goddess has blessed us with. It isn’t quite Summer weather yet but it is starting to warm up and you can just feel our Mother Earth coming back into full bloom. Love this time of the year (until it gets in the 100″s)! But I don’t believe we came here to talk about the weather, so let’s get this show on the road…..
Garden of light
Garden of night
Have I lost my sight
Creation of dark
Beauty of it all
The Goddess blesses all
The moon dances on the water
Mother of the moon
A dress of stars and eyes like the sky
The willow is her tree
And white rose her flower
She is the White Goddess
Known as Selene
For she is seen in the sky as the moon.
