it was recorded in rabbi joshua ben levi's notebook that a person born on the first day of the week (sunday) will lack one thing. the gemara explained that the person will be either completely virtuous or completely wicked, because on that day (in ) god created the extremes of light and darkness. a person born on the second day of the week (monday) will be bad-tempered, because on that day (in ) god divided the waters (and similarly division will exist between this person and others). a person born on the third day of the week (tuesday) will be wealthy and promiscuous, because on that day (in ) god created fast-growing herbs. a person born on the fourth day of the week (wednesday) will be bright, because on that day (in ) god set the luminaries in the sky. a person born on the fifth day of the week (thursday) will practice kindness, because on that day (in ) god created the fish and birds (who find their sustenance through god's kindness). a person born on the eve of the sabbath (friday) will be a seeker. rav nahman bar isaac explained: a seeker after good deeds. a person born on the sabbath (saturday) will die on the sabbath, because they had to desecrate the great day of the sabbath on that person's account to attend to the birth. and rava son of rav shila observed that this person shall be called a great and holy person.
