Valentine’s Day Gift Guide for your Favorite Witchy Weirdo
Valentine’s Day is strange.
It’s pink and red and aggressively romantic. It’s roses that die in a week. It’s prix-fixe menus and heart-shaped capitalism.
But it can also be something else.
It can be intentional.
It can be playful.
It can be a little dark.
It can be them.
If your beloved reads tarot at the kitchen table, cries over planetary transits, hoards jars “just in case,” and says things like “Mercury is in retrograde” with a completely straight face — this guide is for you.
Here’s how to gift your favorite witchy weirdo something they’ll actually adore.
Spellcraft Staples
Spell candles
You don’t need anything fancy. Pink for love. Red for passion. Black for protection. Green for abundance. Yellow for clarity. Blue for peace.
Crystals (the dramatic kind)
An amethyst cluster. A ruby-red statement stone. Something that looks like it was pulled from a dragon’s hoard.
They don’t just want a crystal.
They want a crystal that feels like a relic.
Divination & Devotion
A tarot deck with personality
Not the mass-market, pastel affirmation kind (unless that’s their thing). Look for something moody. Gilded. Macabre. Symbol-heavy.
A deck is not just a deck. It’s a mirror.
A beautiful journal + a pen that glides
For spellwork. For shadow work. For grief. For poetry they’ll never show anyone.
The right notebook feels like a threshold.
The right pen feels like a wand.
Dark Indulgences
Dark chocolate
Preferably the kind that feels decadent and slightly sinful.
Sour, chaotic candy
Because not all witches are brooding forest mystics. Some of us are goblin-coded and love sour gummies.
Valentine’s Day doesn’t have to be all soft-focus romance. It can be sharp. Sweet. Strange.
Ritual-Ready Objects
Vintage glass bottles & jars
For oils. For moon water. For pressed flowers. For absolutely no reason at all except “I might need this for something.”
A celestial planner
For tracking moon phases, eclipses, birthdays, and existential spirals.
Practical magic is still magic.
Beauty with Bite
Gloss that looks like blood.
Lip color that says “kiss me” but also “don’t underestimate me.”
Liquid eyeliner black as night. The gift of the sharpest drawn-on wing will make them fly.
Let them feel like the main character in their own gothic romance.
But Also… Know Your Witch
Are they:
The soft kitchen witch who bakes bread and lights pink candles for self-love?
The death-positive tarot reader who owns more black than the void?
The chaotic goblin who collects bones and sour candy?
The cosmic astrologer who plans life around lunar cycles?
The best gift isn’t aesthetic.
It’s attentive.
Watch what they linger on.
Notice what they talk about.
See what they save on Pinterest at 2am.
A Small Reminder
Valentine’s Day doesn’t have to be about romantic partnership.
Gift your best friend.
Gift your sibling.
Gift yourself.
Especially yourself.
You don’t need someone else to ritualize your life.
If you’re the witchy weirdo in question — consider this your permission slip to romanticize your own existence.
Light the candle.
Eat the chocolate.
Pull the card.
Write the spell.
Love doesn’t have to be conventional to be sacred.
