Taoists do not "pray" in the sense of common religious prayer. Taoists have nothing to pray to, and no reason to pray. Common religious prayer is a way of feeling compassion and forgiveness, and sending healing energy toward a person. Taoists pray by directly feeling compassion and forgiveness for people. Taoists have enough control over their bodies and mind that they can do this whenever they want to without interfering with daily life. Since feeling compassion and forgiveness is helpful at most times on most levels, Taoists do it very often. Additionally, Taoists have developed powerful ways to energetically heal people, making the healing effects of prayer useless. This is not to say that common religious prayer is bad. For common religiuos people, it is actually an acceptable way to feel compassion and forgiveness, and make good things happen. Taoists simply have much better ways of doing it.
And there is not absolute timing for the worship.You can worship at any hour of the day,any day of week.
But during major holidays,such as Chinese New Year,all Chinese worship (gods,ancestors,etc.).
In reality, no one worships a day. They worship on a day. The original Taoist would have worshipped on the seventh day of the week, which is what we call Saturday in the West. It was actually originally called the Sabbath and was commanded to be kept by the Creator who the Taoist worshipped in the beginning. That can be easily shown from ancient Chinese writing. The Taoists or Daoists, depending on who is spelling it, descended from Noah's son Japheth and they worshipped the same God that Christians worship today. In fact, Dao (the Way), would be the third Member of the Godhead, Jesus Christ, Who declared Himself to be "the Way, the Truth, and the Life". Another name for the God that the Daoists/Taoists worshipped originally at least, would be Shangdi, ( God, Ruler of Heaven. Confucius, Mencius, Lao Zi and many other early Chinese sages spoke much about this topic and their writings can be researched even today.
