Friday the 13th is a magical invitation to step into a world of sensuality, pleasure, and radical self-love.
The universe is shimmering with arms fully and joyfully expanded, welcoming you into a mischievous playground of enchantment. What used to be known as a day of bad luck has morphed to be a portal of transformation. Magic. This
Friday is a beautiful opportunity to celebrate the entirety of your radiant magical existence. Embrace the magic of strangeness, of queerness, and revel in it all, knowing that it is within your celebration that radical changes happen. It's no wonder the patriarchy felt scared to consider this day as one of empowerment and embodiment for magical beings.
Fridays are ruled by the planet Venus, the planet most well known for their association with pleasure, romance, creativity, and play. To embrace this witchy landmark is to embrace these qualities. Not so scary, right? You can easefully incorporate this sumptuous magic by spending extra time doting on yourself and going the extra mile to romance yourself simply because you deserve it. Embrace this invitation to revel in Venusian energy by taking an
extra long, extra luscious bath with all of your favorite scents. Seduce yourself with a candlelit dinner followed by self pleasure, or take a walk and bask in the glimmery chilled airs of Autumn. Submerge in what pleasure means to you and follow what your body is reaching for. Now is the time to embrace your full body fuck yes moments!
Thirteen is a number that has been particularly associated with misfortune, but one of the most empowering aspects of being a magical, witchy human is that you get to create the lens in which you view the world- how would it feel to shift this to a lens of pleasure? The thirteenth major arcana card in tarot is Death. While the first initial reaction might be to shy away, try sitting for a moment and looking below the surface. This card is a representation of transformation and joyous rebirth. To end one chapter is to begin anew. What if Friday the 13th was all about being reborn into pleasure and radical
self-love, leaving the chapters of insecurity, shame, or fear in the past and entering a new chapter of pleasure and psychic connection? There are many synchronicities amongst the number thirteen that make this magic especially potent; a full year contains thirteen lunar cycles, and in traditional witchcraft, a coven often includes thirteen witches.
This superstitious day creates space for you to recognize and honor the magic in you, within community, and the opportunity for you to manifest with this vibrant energy. Hone in on this energy through a manifestation spell to bring forward your most authentic, and even
strange, desires. This spell is intended to invite you to meet yourself, your desires, and grant them permission to exist in this life alongside you. Find strength in the unique qualities that make you, you, and expand on them. How would it feel to lean into your dreams and experience them in your waking reality? Tomorrow at 10am we'll be doing an exclusive ritual deep dive inside the Babes Community. Join us!
