I love a spiritual bath to press a reset button physically, emotionally and energetically. Spring is the perfect time to do it, as well, to bring in new things and grow the good in your life.

When to use this ?

Use this to cleanse yourself of a bad time, before an outing or social event to increase fun and merriment, if you need a better financial environment, good favors, and overall it is good for witches wanting a Venusian pick-me-up.

This bath recipe does not require you to have a bath tub : a small, hot water-safe dish of glass or metal in which you can infuse your bath recipe is enough. You’ll pour it over you.

You will need :

a vessel to infuse your bath it (either a dedicated pot, or what I use is a bowl and a dedicated metal tea steeper)

rose water

Water from a spring, spring rain shower or river (some moving water to move out the old and bring something new in). I’m also a modern witch so sparkling water also works.

Flower petals, fresh or dried. Aim for 6 if you can, as this is the number of Venus. Rose is mandatory to me but this is at your discretion. If you wish for romance : rose, jasmine, cornflower. If you wish for friendliness or just a pick-me-up: lavender, buttercup, daisies, dandelions, chamomille, calendula.

A sweetener of your choice: my picks are honey or brown sugar, especially if you’re Black from a former sugarcane plantation region like I am.

Cinnamon (especially for money matters). Use a small amount to avoid irritations.

Optional : rosemary. For friendliness, cleansing, blessing purposes (opt out if you brew this for seduction).

Salt

Optional : Any blessed oil(s) or blend(s) of your choosing, especially for practitioners Afro diasporic practices.

Boil some water and pour it on your ingredients. Stir 6 times clockwise and ask your plant allies, Venus, your Venusian deities or the relevant spirits/deities of your practice to cleanse you then imbue you with the pleasantness, concord, charm, love, wealth, growth, and any Venusian matter you’re seeking.

Let it infuse until it’s room temperature or at least cool enough to pour on you. Pour the mixture on your whole body. Rub it in your feet, heart space and hands.
