Auspicious Daye witchcraft refers to the practice of performing witchcraft on a day deemed to be lucky or fortunate. It combines the elements of witchcraft and the belief in the influence of certain days on the outcome of spells and rituals. In various cultures and traditions, certain days are considered auspicious for performing witchcraft and for harnessing the energy of the universe. These days are often associated with specific celestial events, such as a full moon, new moon, solstice, or equinox. It is believed that the alignment of the planets and the moon's phases can amplify the power of spells and rituals, making them more effective. The concept of auspicious daye witchcraft is not limited to any specific tradition or belief system.

Guide: Finding Auspicious Times with Astrology
I was inspired by u/Curunir_07 and u/fullfux64 ‘s guides so I made one on finding auspicious times with astrology. This method relies mainly on the seven classical planets known to the ancients because they can be seen with the naked eye. It was believed that the light from these planets bathed the Earth in their particular energies. These energies are not distributed evenly across creation, so specific things may have more of one planetary energy than another. This foundational principle can be used in a variety of ways, such as determining spell components or kitchen witchery for example. But these energies were also thought to be distributed across time which will be my focus.
Now depending on your goals, you can look at different increments of time. For a handfasting, you might want to find the most auspicious time out of a whole year, whereas with an impromptu self-care ritual, you may just want to consider the day of the week or even the hour. However, first you need to pick a planet based on your intention. I’m going to continue with the handfasting example. I want to encourage the growth of love and unity, so I pick Venus.
For an auspicious month, we look at the zodiac signs:
Mars – Aries and Scorpio
Venus – Taurus and Libra
Mercury – Gemini and Virgo
Jupiter – Sagittarius and Pisces
Saturn – Capricorn and Aquarius
Venus rules Taurus and Libra, so we’d look at the time periods of April 21st – May 21st and September 23rd – October 22nd. Honestly, I’d just choose based on whether I wanted a spring or fall wedding from here, but you could also consider the quality of the sign. Like if we want to encourage the balance and justice of Libra, we’d pick the later date.
For an auspicious day:
Tuesday – Mars (Tues is from Tyr, Germanic god of war)
Wednesday – Mercury (Wedn = Odin in his wisdom aspect)
Thursday – Jupiter (Thur = Thor as a sky and thunder god)
Friday – Venus (Fri = Freya as goddess of love)
The info in parentheses is a way to remember which planet belongs to which day based on the names of the days of the week in English. If you know the week in a Romance language like French or Spanish, it is pretty clear which day belongs to which planet.
So if we want our handfasting in Libra on Friday in 2021 that gives us the dates of :
Sept 24th, Oct 1st, Oct 8th, Oct 15th, or Oct 22nd
If for some reason, Friday didn’t work, like it had to be Saturday or Sunday because of work schedules, you’d pick the planet that is more aligned with your goals, though generally for a handfasting, Sunday would be the better day.
Once you have the date, you can narrow it down to a specific start time. The sunrise hour starting at 6 am belongs to that day’s planet. So, the sunrise hour on Friday belongs to Venus. After sunrise, each hour is assigned a planet in the order of; Saturn, Jupiter, Mars, Sun, Venus, Mercury, Moon and repeat. This is called the Chaldean Order. It is the order from slowest to fastest planet across the sky from the point of view of Earth. This will give us the planetary hour of 1 pm for Friday or 2 pm for Sunday as the best time.
There is another way to determine planetary hours instead of the standard hour. There are a few extra steps, but I like it because it reflects the season and location. Where I am for today, the sun rose at 6:15 am and set at 9:02 pm. That’s 14 hrs 47 mins, then I’ll divide it by 12. For here, today, a planetary hour is 1 hr and 14 mins and 6:15 to 7:29 am was the sunrise hour for Mercury.
Finding auspicious times can seem a bit intimidating, but most people already have some knowledge of the symbolism of the zodiac signs and the mythology and associations of the planets which is really the hardest part. The Chaldean Order will become more familiar with use. If you need to figure it out, but can’t look it up, the days of the week are 3 spaces apart in the Chaldean Order. So, starting with Monday going through the days of the week, we have:
Moon (Monday), 2, 3, Mars (Tuesday), 5, 6, Mercury (Wednesday)
Moon, 2, Jupiter (Thusday), Mars, 5, Venus (Friday), Mercury
Moon, Saturn, Jupiter, Mars, Sun, Venus, Mercury
Now you have all you need to pick an auspicious time for spells, rituals, or any other witchy activity. I tried to be as clear as possible, but please let me know if somethings too vague or confusing.
