Astrology isn’t just for understanding personality charts. It’s also a gorgeous clock you can use to time your intentions. Think of manifesting as aligning your actions with a tide that’s already coming in. Astrology gives you the tide table.
Below is a simple, step-by-step way to work with planets, planetary days/hours, and your transits to call in what you want…money, love, confidence, creative flow, protection, all of it. Grab tea. Light a candle if you like. Let’s start.
Meet the planets (what they help you manifest)
Each planet rules a specific day, and it’s no wonder that many of the days are actually named after the planets:
- Sun: vitality, visibility, leadership, self-confidence, success.
- Moon: intuition, healing, comfort, home, emotional safety, habits.
- Mercury: ideas, studying, writing, contracts, sales, tech, travel.
- Venus: love, charm, peace, art, beauty, self-worth, money through attraction.
- Mars: courage, momentum, cutting through procrastination, protection.
- Jupiter: growth, luck, opportunities, teachers, abundance, faith.
- Saturn: discipline, structure, boundaries, long-term stability, career mastery.
- Uranus: breakthroughs, liberation, surprises, innovation.
- Neptune: imagination, spirituality, compassion, dissolving blocks.
- Pluto: deep transformation, power reclamation, shadow work, regeneration.
For most practical manifesting, you’ll lean on the visible seven (Sun through Saturn), and sprinkle in the outer planets if your goal fits (e.g., Pluto for major rebirth vibes). I personally do not use outer planets.
Planetary days & hours (aka “when to do the thing”)
Each day of the week is ruled by a planet:
- Sunday = Sun
- Monday = Moon
- Tuesday = Mars
- Wednesday = Mercury
- Thursday = Jupiter
- Friday = Venus
- Saturday = Saturn

On a planet’s day, its themes are louder.
On top of that, even each part of the day is ruled by a planet:
Hour | Ruling Planet |
---|---|
1 | Saturn |
2 | Jupiter |
3 | Mars |
4 | Sun |
5 | Venus |
6 | Mercury |
7 | Moon |
8 | Saturn |
9 | Jupiter |
10 | Mars |
11 | Sun |
12 | Venus |
13 | Mercury |
14 | Moon |
15 | Saturn |
16 | Jupiter |
17 | Mars |
18 | Sun |
19 | Venus |
20 | Mercury |
21 | Moon |
22 | Saturn |
23 | Jupiter |
24 | Mars |
Please note that the planetary hours above are calculated for my location – Berlin, Germany. If you are in a different location, visit astro-seek.com and adjust the settings to your city.
Planetary hours are a repeating cycle throughout the day that takes the day’s ruler and rotates through the planets in a traditional order. The practical takeaway: if you can do your intention during both the planet’s day and its hour, you get a little “double-click” on that theme.
Example: Money/abundance workings love Thursday (Jupiter’s day) or Friday (Venus’s day). Do them during a Jupiter hour or Venus hour for extra oomph.
(You don’t have to be perfect. If you can’t hit the exact hour, the day alone still helps. Consistency beats perfection every time.)
Transits: your personalized green lights

Planetary transits (how planets in the sky currently aspect your natal chart) can give you windows of easy momentum. If you know your chart:
- Venus transits are great for love, money, harmony, and aesthetics.
- Jupiter transits open doors, boost confidence, and bless what you touch.
- Saturn transits can solidify commitments and habits that last.
For instance: if you have Jupiter conjunct your natal Venus, that’s a cosmic “yes” for love, artistry, and prosperity. Manifest or do a money/love spell on a Friday (Venus day) or Thursday (Jupiter day) during the Venus or Jupiter hour. Delicious synergy.
Don’t know your transits yet? That’s okay—use the planetary days/hours first. Transits are an upgrade, not a barrier to entry.
The step-by-step guide

1) Name your intention like a headline
Be specific, honest, and short.
- Instead of “I want more money,” try: “I receive a steady new income stream that feels aligned and sustainable.”
- Instead of “I want love,” try: “I build a mutual, affectionate relationship where we both feel safe and seen.”
2) Pick the right planet
Match the planet to the intention:
- Money through opportunities, mentors, expansion → Jupiter.
- Money through attraction, clients, beauty, harmony → Venus.
- Confidence and visibility → Sun.
- Study, interviews, pitches → Mercury.
- Courage, gym consistency, cutting cords → Mars.
- Boundaries, long-term stability, debt payoff plans → Saturn.
- Emotional healing, rest, home blessings → Moon.
3) Choose your timing (day + hour)
- Use the planet’s day from the list above.
- If possible, do it during the planet’s hour for extra focus.
- Bonus layer: consider Moon phases—waxing Moon (from New to Full) is great for growth and drawing in; waning Moon (from Full to New) is great for release and purification. If you’re calling in money or love, waxing is your friend.
4) Gather minimal correspondences (keep it simple)
You don’t need a fancy altar unless you want one. One candle and one symbol are enough.
- Venus: Friday, a small green or pink item (a rose, a favorite ring), sweet scent.
- Jupiter: Thursday, a coin or banknote, something that symbolizes expansion (your journal, a diploma, a business plan).
- Mars: Tuesday, something red, a to-do list to tackle.
- Saturn: Saturday, a planner, a key, anything that represents commitment.
Choose items you already own. Intention > aesthetics.
5) Write your “spell sentence”
This is your focused statement you’ll read or whisper during the working. Use present tense and gratitude:
- “I gratefully welcome a stable new income stream of [amount] per month that supports my well-being and gives me spaciousness.”
- “I effortlessly connect with aligned clients who love to pay for my work.”
If it’s love, describe the feeling and the dynamic, not a specific person’s name.
6) Do the short ritual
Here’s a friendly template you can adapt to any planet:
- Center: Take 3–7 slow breaths.
- Light your candle (or choose a focal object).
- Name the moment: “On this [planet] day and [planet] hour, I align with [planet]’s qualities.”
- Say your spell sentence slowly, once to three times, letting yourself feel it as true.
- Small action: Do one tiny, practical move that matches the intention right there:
- Money: send an invoice, apply for one opportunity, open a savings sub-account, price your offer.
- Love: message a friend to plan a social thing, update your dating profile authentically, tidy your bedroom.
- Confidence: submit the pitch, post the thing, book the appointment.
- Close with thanks: “Thank you, [planet], for supporting this intention in right timing and right relationship.”
This can be five minutes. Consistency is magic.
7) Anchor it physically
Keep a small token on your desk or altar (coin, ring, sticky note with one-line intention). You’re telling your brain, “We’re on this channel now.”
8) Track results (the fun part)
In a notes app or journal, make a two-column list: Date / What happened. Astrology shines through patterns. You’ll notice which days/hours feel strongest for you.
9) Stack transits when you can
If you know you’ve got a helpful transit (like Jupiter trine your Sun, Venus crossing your Midheaven, or the earlier example Jupiter conjunct your Venus), schedule a special working on that transit plus the matching day/hour. That’s like catching three green lights in a row.
10) Keep ethics and nervous system in the loop
Good magic doesn’t bulldoze consent or your body’s needs. If you feel dysregulated, do a Moon/Saturn mini-ritual first for grounding (breath, water, boundaries), then return to your Venus/Jupiter plans. You’re not “behind.” You’re wise.
Real-world examples

Money—attraction route (Venus):
Friday during a Venus hour. Light a small candle. Hold a coin or touch a favorite piece of jewelry. Say: “I effortlessly attract well-paying, aligned clients who value my work. I receive [amount] monthly with ease.” Then do one practical thing: publish your rates or send one offer email. If you also happen to have Jupiter touching your Venus by transit? Chef’s kiss. Consider adding a Thursday Jupiter-hour session the day before to “open the gates,” then do the Venus working on Friday to “receive.”
Money—opportunity route (Jupiter):
Thursday during Jupiter hour. Journal one page about the kind of opportunity you want (clear, exciting, ethical). Say: “I welcome a growth opportunity that expands my income and joy in mutually beneficial ways.” Action: apply, pitch, or enroll.
Love—self-worth + reciprocity (Venus + Sun):
Friday (Venus) or Sunday (Sun). Name qualities you give and want to receive. Action: rewrite your dating profile to reflect those values; text a friend to set up a fun social plan.
Productivity + protection (Mars + Saturn):
Tuesday (Mars) to start; Saturday (Saturn) to structure. Action: pick one task you’ve been avoiding and do the first 10 minutes now; then block a weekly time slot.
What if I can’t time it perfectly?
Do it anyway. The sky is generous. Planetary days/hours and transits are helpers, not gatekeepers. If you’re slammed on Friday, do your Venus working on Wednesday during a Venus hour. If you miss the hour, do the day. If you miss the day, do the intention with a breath and a candle after dinner. The most magical ingredient is your repeatable, reality-matching action.
