How to Work a Rose Lineage Deity Week: Daily Rituals + 9-Card Week-Ahead Spread

Altar Set Up for a Rose Lineage Deity Week Tarot Reading

This article is a companion to The Rose Lineage Wheel of the Year: How to Walk Out the Priestess Path and a complement to Angel Magic Basics: The Angels of the Days of the Week. In practice, that means you can weave both currents—angels and deities—through your Rose Priestess path, or focus on just one stream if that suits your temperament or season. Below, you’ll find a simple, day-by-day rhythm with patron deities, correspondences, and candle invocations, along with a 9-card Rose Lineage Deity Week-Ahead Tarot spread to gather their guidance into one coherent message.

The Weekly Wheel at a Glance

  • Monday (Moon): Mary-Isis
  • Tuesday (Mars): Sekhmet
  • Wednesday (Mercury): Nephthys—Seshat aspect
  • Thursday (Jupiter/Chesed): Melchizedek
  • Friday (Venus): Hathor + Mary Magdalene (share or alternate)
  • Saturday (Saturn): Anubis
  • Sunday (Sun): Christ

Think of each day as a focused current of Heka — the Living Light: a breath, a line of intention, a candle, and a card draw. That’s enough to keep the current flowing without micromanaging your magic.

How to Use This Practice (Quick Start)

  1. Light a single candle in the day’s colours. It’s alright to swap any candle colour for all-purpose white if that is all you have.
  2. Give a simple offering (water/wine, bread, a coin for charity, or a few notes of music etc).
  3. Read the short invocation below; then pull one Tarot card, asking, “What is your guidance for me today?”
  4. Journal one line: “By the Power of the Living Light within, I will…”
