🎂 2nd cakeday celebration

My 2nd cakeday finally came 🥳! You already know I'm an expert in time travel, but you probably don't know that I'm also quite a magician.

It's time for me to share my magical knowledge with someone, but unfortunately, I don't have enough time to guide you all. First, you must prove to me that you can wave a wand. If you follow all my instructions correctly, you will be teleported to the selection machine. It will evaluate your remaining abilities and make your final selection. Important notes - the selection machine is open until December 13th, 6:23 PM (UTC). It will only accept you if you have experience level 2+.

So, take your wand in hand and follow my instructions 🪄:

1. Point your wand down. Make a long upward stroke, then a short left stroke, and finally a quick, long right stroke.
2. Point your wand up. Make a left-down stroke, then a short upward stroke, a long down stroke, another short upward stroke, and finally a right-down stroke.
3. Point your wand down. Make a stroke up, then quickly back down to starting position, then a stroke to the right and a stroke up.
4. Point your wand down. Make a stroke up and then a semicircle to the right and down to end where you started.
5. Point your wand up. Make a stroke left, then down, then right, then quickly left, then down, and finally right.

Hint 1. The starting point will help you with the start, but may also help at the end.
Hint 2. The wand will make a sparkled path - this is a spell that still needs to be spelled correctly (see Hint 1).

Safe journey!

Thank you all for your wishes, below is the solution to the puzzle
