Wear black.

I'm well aware that it's less of a sun color, more commonly worn by worshippers of the night. But black absorbs the sunlight, as it does with any other wavelengths of visible light.

While colors like red, yellow, white and brown are great, black can absorb the Sun's energy.

Also, if you don't want to buy a shit ton of clothes for the Sun, wear whatever color you like. The Sun is all colors mixed together, afterall.

If the sun didn't exist, neither would anything on this planet. The sun helps give us the plants that we eat and admire, which in turn feeds the animals we love and consume, and provides the world with oxygen to give us life

Let the sun power your spells, your spirit, and your dreams:

• Make sun salt for purification and abundance

• Meditate during sunrise and sunset for clarity and energy

• Charge your magickal tools in sunlight

• Charge crystals under the sun for amplified strength

• Use sunflowers in spells and rituals for joy, growth, and hope

• Make sun water for vitality and manifestation

• Practice fire magick to connect with the sun’s fierce power

The sun’s energy is always there for you — glowing, wild, and ready to bless your craft.

+ . Actions

[Light of the sun and sky] ~ Take a walk during the daytime | Charge yourself with nature and the energy of the sun by taking a calm walk around your area ~ Place any plants you own outside | If you own plants, put them outside to let them absorb the energy of the sun (and photosynthesize) ~ Sleeping | This might seem strange, but sleeping, and resting as the sun does, can be a good devotional action ~ Eating food | Especially orange/yellow foods, plants grown with sunlight, and animals who are grown with intensive or organic farming ~ Using colored items | Commonly orange and yellow, but some UPG I have is pink, green and the complete rainbow ~ Plant imagery | Plants are grown mainly with sunlight and sharing your space with the intent of sharing the energy of the sun is a good magical act ~ Drinking water | Especially if the water was in the sun for a short while, or you drink it while sitting in the sun ~ Interacting with sunshine characters | You know those happy go-lucky positive people in fiction and reality? Yes, them ~ Looking at sunlight | Literally just staring at light shining through your window or staring at the sunlit fields works ~ Yapping at the sun | Just talking with the sun or any Deity you associate with the sun can absolutely be a magical action
