Birthdays

Celebrating the birthday of a deity can be as powerful and as important as celebrating the birthdays of family members and loved ones. A really nice way to celebrate is to bake (or buy) a cake, decorate it in appropriate colors, light some candles, sing or say an nice invocation or prayer, and make an offering of whatever seems right. It’s a great way to enhance your connection with the divine.
