Why Is Sunday Considered the Sun’s Day?

In ancient tradition, every day of the week was associated with one of the seven celestial bodies that could be observed without a telescope.


Sunday belonged to the Sun. This connection is still clearly visible in the English name Sunday - literally the Sun’s day.

In different languages, the names of the days changed over time under the influence of culture and religion. Yet Sunday’s solar symbolism remained: light, vitality, joy, creativity and a return to one’s own centre.

Seen through this symbolic lens, Sunday is not only a chance to prepare for Monday. It is a day to remember what fills you with energy beyond obligations.

A walk, favourite music, a meeting, creativity, a delicious breakfast or a few hours without the need to be productive - everyone has a way to recover their taste for life.

Sometimes the best Sunday plan is not to finish absolutely everything, but to remember why you are doing so much in the first place.

The stars speak. You decide.
