 The days of the week"Monday's Child is fair of face, The ancient Babylonians chose to organize their calendar around 7 days of the week, and each day corresponds to one of the seven "planets" visible to the naked eye. [Planets is in quotations because two--the Sun and the Moon--are technically not planets (they're leading light).] Monday (lundi in French) is ruled by the Moon. "Monday's child is fair of face" might refer to the sensitiveness and youth associated with the Moon. Tues (mardi in French) is ruled by Mars. "Tuesday's child is full of grace" might be more aptly interpreted as full of energy and motion. Wednesday (mercredi in French) is ruled by quicksilver. "Wednesday's child is full of woe" might be interpreted as a individual who concern or thinks too much. Th (jeudi in French) is ruled by Jupiter. "Thursday's child has far to go" might thus be interpreted as a individual who will traveling and learn. Fri (vendredi in French) is ruled by Venus. "Friday's child is loving and gift" might refer to the Venus nature, that is, a individual who is loving and receptive to love. Sabbatum (samedi in French) is ruled by Saturn. "Saturday's child works hard for a life" thus might refer to the Saturnine nature which is instead serious and responsible. Sunday (dimanche in French) is ruled by the Sun. "But the child born on the Sabbath Day is fair and wise and good and gay" might refer to the magnanimous Sun nature. Astrologers generally pay more attention to the ruling planets in a natal chart. That is, the planet that rules the sign on your Ascendant and the planet that rules the sign of your Sun. For example, if your Ascendant is Aries, Mars is the ruling planet of your Ascendant since Mars is the natural ruler of Aries. If your Sun is in Taurus, then Venus is your Sun's ruling planet since Venus is the natural ruler of Taurus.
