Seven Flowers Miracle Bath

This bath is ideal for when you’re very tired, very jaded, very drained, or very bitter. Seven different fresh flowers are required for this bath, the magic number associated with hope and miracles. Choose whatever flowers are available or whatever flowers appeal to you. Float the flowers in the bathtub and soak while focusing on regaining innocence and optimism.

[whichwitchami]

Can a person bring bad luck? Cause I think I am and everyone around me says that I'm as lucky as a broken mirror. If I like a shop, it will close in 2 months. If I like a person their lives become trash shortly after I meet them. Any advice you could give me?

hmmmm....

My guess, though I don’t have much experience with stuff like this, is that maybe there’s some kind of curse placed on you, or something with ill intent creating the bad luck. I don’t think its you directly, meaning there’s something you can probably do to make it go away. My guess is if one of the below methods work, the bad luck and whatever is causing it will clear up and you’ll be ok again. 

Here are some resources on curses and how to tell if you have been cursed/ how to remove a curse: 

One Two 

You can try some of those suggestions, or a cleansing of yourself. There are also several methods of cleansing. My favorite is just to use a nice smelling incense stick and wave it around me so I bathe in the smoke a bit, but there are a ton of options. 

If those two things don’t work...then IDK I’m not super great at this stuff. Perhaps some other little gems can help out? I’ll open this up for anyone to comment and give suggestions.

Salt Scrub

A salt scrub provides a more concentrated cleansing. For maximum effect, add bath salts to the water and then apply the salt scrub directly to the body.

The Standard Salt Scrub formula consists of a blend of approximately one cup of salt and one half cup of oil. The actual quantity depends, however, upon the desired consistency and the sensitivity of your skin: if you’d like a softer, less abrasive scrub, increase the proportion of oil.

Because salt is purifying and protective, every salt scrub inherently provides aura cleansing. However, the purpose and added effects of a salt scrub may be adjusted through the addition of essential oils. Rosemary, clary sage, frankincense, manuka, benzoin, thyme linalool, and sandalwood all intensify the cleansing effect.

Sage Cleansing Spell (4)

To heal from a friend’s betrayal and help remove feelings of violation and humiliation:

Soak a photograph in salted water. If the spell is right for you, you will know which photograph to use.

Remove the photo from the liquid and let it dry out.

Burn the photo on a bed of sage. [Recan] yourself with sage, too.

This spells requires a pine branch complete with needles.

Have someone gently sweep you with this branch from the top of your head to the soles of your feet.

When the cleansing is complete, burn the branch or toss it into running water, flowing away from you.

Verbena Bath

Vervain, sometimes called verbena, and lemon verbena are often and easily confused. The two can complement each other: lemon verbena provides purification while vervain offers magical protection.

Make a strong infusion by pouring boiling water over the combined botanicals. Add the water to your bath, together with a splash of vinegar and slices of lemon.
