The day of the week that you were born on can tell you a lot more about your personality style than you knew before.With seven days of the week, there are seven unique different personality types out there in the world. What does the day that you were born on say about you?
According to scholars, the origin for the common names for the days of the week and their association with planets is around the first century B.C.E. The days of the week are named for ancient Norse and Roman gods, who are associated with planets and certain personality traits as well.
According to the director of the observatory at Hartwick college in New York, starting with Sunday, the days of the week are named after planets as follows: ‘Sun’s day, Moon’s day, Mercury’s day, Mars’s day, Jupiter’s day, Venus’s day and Saturn’s day.’Sunday, Monday and Saturday all seem easy to understand the naming scheme. The other days of the week are less obvious, but the observatory says that the Norse gods they are named after are ‘Tuesday or Tiw’s day, Wednesday or Woden’s day, Thursday or Thor’s day, Friday or Frie’s day.’
These Norse gods that the weekdays are named for also relate to Roman gods ‘Tiw is the Norse god which corresponds to the Roman god Mars, Woden is the Norse god of war corresponding to the Roman Mercury, and Frie is the Norse god of love, similar to the Roman god Venus.’
