I’ve been seeing this go around a bit and have talked about it a little before, and figured I’d make a more formal post about some things you can do to make your birthday more magical. Feel free to add more!
- Do an annual tarot spread for the year to come
- Come up with a resolution for how you would like to grow, cast a spell to help out
- Make a lot of “new age” puns
- Look up what the planets are going to be moving into, especially your ruling planet. How does it compare to the year you were born?
- Find out your birth chart, if you don’t know it.
- Look up some kitchen witchy recipes to serve at a birthday party
- Ask your friends for donations to a nonprofit instead of gifts. It can be something specifically for a witchy cause like the environment, or just a cause you really care about.
- You could even make the donation in the name of your patron deity, if you have one.
- Talk with spirits that have the same birthday as you! Give them something nice for an offering for their own birthday gift.
- REALLY WISH ON THOSE BIRTHDAY CANDLES
- Draw a sigil in the icing of the cake. Stick the candles into it in decorative says. The color of the candles can even correspond.
