Dreams are sequences of images, emotions, and thoughts that our mind generates while we sleep. They offer us insight into our conscious and unconscious selves, helping us achieve transformative wholeness. Dreaming is believed to help us process emotions, store memories, and reduce stress, among other benefits. Only 11% of Americans almost always remember their dreams, and dreaming is more vivid during the REM sleep stage.
Leo King and Carl Jung explain that dreams are impartial products of the unconscious psyche that can show us the unvarnished truth. This truth is shaped not only by the symbols in dreams but also by the days on which we dream them. Each day of the week is ruled by planetary energies, and the dreams we have on those days can be influenced by these energies. By paying attention to the day of the week and the emotions in the dream, we can mine our dreams for meaning and make the most of their messages.
Mondays are ruled by the moon, representing intuition, need, and the divine feminine. Dreams on Mondays can reveal deep emotions and feelings. Tuesdays are associated with Mars, pushing for action and inspiring internal reflection to lead to external expression. Wednesdays are under the influence of Mercury, bringing psychic messages and ancestral downloads in dreams. Thursdays, ruled by Jupiter, may bring prophecies and insights for expanding good fortune.
Fridays belong to Venus, offering insight into love relationships, jealousy, and romantic desires in dreams. Saturdays are influenced by Saturn, highlighting struggles, challenges, and lessons that need to be learned. Sundays, being ruled by the sun, may manifest in the physical world quickly and illuminate self-expression and growth. By identifying the planetary influence of each day and reflecting on the emotions and symbols in dreams, we can gain a deeper understanding of their messages and meanings.
Psychic Persephone recommends writing down dreams in detail upon waking and noting the emotional quality of the dream and how it made you feel. Reflect on the symbols without overanalyzing them and focus on their emotional resonance. Sketching or painting the most striking moments of the dream can help process difficult emotions. By respecting the spirit of each day and the dreams that come with it, we can leverage the planetary energies to benefit from the messages offered in our dreams.
