Wednesday is a perfect day to light a candle, but even more to practice divinations<\/strong>. The origin of the name Wednesday goes back to the Old English W\u014ddnesd\u00e6g<\/em> and Middle English Wednesdei<\/em>, meaning “day of Woden”. Woden is the name that the Anglo-Saxons gave to the Norse god Odin. In other languages, such as the French mercredi <\/em>or Italian mercoled\u00ec<\/em>, the day’s name means “day of Mercury”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Odin was a god of wisdom, healing, death, royalty and many other aspects of life, so the Romans equated him with Mercury<\/a>, the god of commerce, eloquence, messages, communication (including divination) among other things. The quality of being a mediator between worlds<\/strong> also gives Mercury a parallel with the Egyptian god Thoth<\/a>, the Greek god Hermes<\/a>, and the Saxon god Herne.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other depictions showed him wearing a winged helmet<\/strong> to symbolize speed. The Valknut <\/strong>or interlocked triangles is a symbol associated with the god Odin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
