Module IV – Spellcraft, Timing & Magical Design

⸻

🕯️ Lesson Overview

Witches don’t just act — they align.

And one of the most powerful forms of magical alignment is timing.

Every day, hour, and moment is ruled by a specific planetary force. Learning to understand these rhythms — and to cast your spells in harmony with them — adds precision, flow, and natural power to your craft.

This lesson introduces the system of planetary days and planetary hours, drawn from classical Hermetic and astrological sources. You’ll learn how to calculate timing, match spells to their best windows, and build your workings with the tides of the cosmos behind them.

🜁 The Seven-Day Cycle

In planetary magic, each day of the week is ruled by one of the classical planets. This rulership informs the tone of the day — making it ideal for certain types of magic.

• Monday – Moon: intuition, dreams, emotions, psychic work

• Tuesday – Mars: protection, courage, severing, action

• Wednesday – Mercury: communication, writing, travel, magic
