Each day of the week derives its name either from a planet, an Anglo-Saxon deity or warrior, or a Latin-speaking deity or warrior. In the case of Tuesday, its English derivative originated from the Norse God, Tyr. The Romans named the day after the warrior God of Mars, Martis, which evolved into the French term “Mardi.”
The planet Mars symbolizes desire, drive, energy, and sexuality, which perfectly encapsulates the essence of Tuesday. It is a day for taking action, completing projects, and translating Monday’s plans into reality. Tuesday is an ideal time for making informed decisions and propelling your career to new heights. It is also a day for aligning passions and engaging in physical exercise in any form. When energy levels are high, so is desire and sexuality. You radiate confidence when your energy levels soar.
To effectively harness the energy of Tuesday, be clear and precise about your goals and follow through until they are accomplished. Mars’ energy will fill you with drive and passion, so it is up to you to take the necessary steps.
The zodiac signs ruled by Mars are Aries and Scorpio. Let’s explore their qualities and character traits to understand how luck can find you on a Tuesday.
Aries: Ambitious, honest, self-assertive, courageous, and decisive. Scorpio: Passionate, independent, brave, intimidating, and sexy.
Both Aries and Scorpio embody the characteristics of a Tuesday zodiac sign. Therefore, for those whose zodiac signs are not associated with Mars, if you desire to benefit from luck and good fortune on a Tuesday, it would be wise to emulate the aforementioned qualities, even if only for a day. There is always room for your zodiac traits to intersect with another astrological sign, enhancing your chances for good fortune. Try it and refine your approach.

Tuesday’s Colors
Based on present day beliefs or customs, pink does not seem like the proper color to be associated to the rough and tumble, aggressive Tuesday but in ancient times, pink was the primary choice, although different customs argue that red, brown, and orange – specifically red – are the colors du jour. Tuesday was linked to the god of Mars, which is known as the god of war and the angry planet. People believed that wearing pink would appease the spirits but nowadays it has evolved into a feminine color, and often referred to as the color of love, which is a contradiction to the depictions of Mars and Tuesday.
The color red represents passion, energy, and warmth in the most extreme forms. It stirs up the qualities of leadership in your being and boosts self-confidence. It is a color that revitalizes your body and screams “leadership”. Wear red on Tuesdays and see how your luck changes.
