Celebrating Spirit Birthdays

It's been forever since I've talked about spiritual stuff, so let's go. [Insert motor revving sounds here]

As you may or may not know, I'm a pop culture pagan. I work with spirits from pop media, which comes with an interesting side effect: I know when their birthdays are. This isn't a particularly common thing (at least in my experience) with ancient or 'mythological' spirits. But a lot of pop culture entities were created with specific birthdays, likes and dislikes, and all the other fun stuff that goes into creating a character.

So let's talk spirit birthdays and other celebrations.

Just like physical people, spirits have different reactions to their birthdays. Some of them love celebrating, some want it to just pass unnoticed. Before throwing a party for a spirit, make sure they're comfortable and want it.

Now the fun bit: some ideas on how to celebrate birthdays or other celebrations with the spirits in your life.

Keep in mind these are just ideas and things I've done personally. Make sure whatever you do is fun and works for both you and the spirit(s) you're celebrating with!
  • Bake or eat cake and invite the spirit to join you 
  • Create something to gift the spirit (drawings, poems, crafts, ect.)
  • Go for a walk together
  • Make special offerings or leave little presents on your altar
  • Dance or sing together
  • Partake in their favorite activity and invite them to join you or devote the energy to them
  • Eat their favorite food
  • If it's a pop culture spirit, spend some time with their source material (movie/book/game/etc.)

That's all there is to it! Anything can be a birthday or celebration gift or activity if you do it with intention and keep the spirit in mind. So go celebrate!
