Five Star Gift Ideas

When choosing a birthday gift for your girlfriend who appreciates both poetry and tarot reading, you'll want to find something that beautifully weaves together these interests and demonstrates your understanding of what she loves.

Consider creating a personalized poetry tarot deck. You could either find a talented artist on Etsy to customize a tarot deck or, if you’re artistically inclined, design it yourself. Each card could feature an excerpt from a famous poem, a quote, or even original poetry that resonates with the card’s meaning. This would be a truly unique and personal gift that combines her love of both poetry and tarot.

Another thoughtful option is a book that merges poetry with the themes and insights of tarot. "Tarot for Troubled Times" by Shaheen Miro and Theresa Reed, while not purely poetry-focused, offers reflective prose and insights inspired by tarot's themes. Pair this with a beautiful journal where she can jot down her thoughts, poems, and readings.

You could also plan an experience that centers around her passions. Organize a private poetry reading or tarot session with a professional. Many poets offer virtual or in-person sessions where they read their works, or you can find a tarot reader who offers a unique interpretive session, combining poetry and tarot insights. To make it extra special, you could follow the session with dinner at a cozy restaurant or a homemade meal themed around her favorite poets or tarot card symbols.

For a more tangible gift, consider a beautifully bound edition of her favorite poetry collection, or a book of poetry she hasn’t yet discovered. Look for something classic or explore modern poets whose themes align with tarot-like introspection and mysticism. Pair the book with a luxurious set of bookmarks inspired by tarot card imagery.

Lastly, poetry writing or tarot workshops could be an inspiring gift. Check out local or online classes that delve into these areas. It’s a great way to nurture her hobbies while also giving her the opportunity to meet like-minded individuals.

By thoughtfully integrating her interests in poetry and tarot, you create a gift that is not only meaningful but also deeply personal, ensuring her birthday is an occasion she will treasure.

Or you can get her a star map with the date when she was born.
