5 Ways to Make Your Shower Magical

So, you don’t have a bathtub or the time to take an arduous bath. You’d like to do something mood-lifting and positive but honestly feel a little lazy (and maybe a little gross, too). The good news is, you can still be indulgent and just as magical with a good shower.

1. Make DIY shower disks with various herbs and essential oils. Not only will the steam improve your health, but the ingredients can have magical properties as well.

2. Steep the herbs you would put in your bath in a pail of warm water and rinse yourself with the brew post-shower. Many herbal rinses also offer tons of benefits for the skin.

3. Choose soap with intent. You can use bar soap (either DIY or store-bought) or handmade body wash. Looking to be energized? Try a minty eucalyptus soap. Need to unwind before bed? Go with a chamomile and lavender wash. Be sure to use ingredients that match your purpose! 

4. Use a purposeful body scrub. Rub away bad energy and dead skin with recipes for purification and protection, energy, stopping gossip, glamour, recovering from violation, preventing unwanted touching, removing bad energy, romance, self love, luck, or create your own recipe. 

5. Finish it off with a body oil post-shower. In addition to their various skin benefits, different oils have different mythological, magical, and aromatherapeutic connotations. Use coconut oil or olive oil for purification and protection, almond oil for prosperity, apricot kernel oil or avocado oil for love, or sunflower oil for energy. Add a drop of an essential oil for even more magic.

Sea Witch Bath

Maybe you’re a landlocked sea witch, maybe you’re looking for a setting to commune with your ocean deity, maybe you just feel like pampering yourself like a mermaid. We’ve got the bath spell for you.

First prep the bath mixture. You’ll need:

1 part sea salt

1 part epsom salt

1 part kelp powder

½ part baking soda

essential oil of rosemary

Combine all the ingredients in a jar, then charge the mixture under the full moon. Store with a piece of moonstone when not in use.

For the spell you’ll need:

the sea witch bath mixture

muslin bag or old pantyhose

variety of candles

sea related trinkets (i.e. seashells, sea glass, mermaid offerings, etc.)

jasmine or eucalyptus incense

Arrange your trinkets and candles around the rim of the bathtub, then light the incense and candles. While waiting for the bathtub to fill with warm water, place a cup of the bath mixture into the muslin bag or pantyhose and tie it shut. Make sure theres enough room in the bag for when the kelp expands. Drop it into the bath water, then soak until you feel you’ve absorbed all the energy out of the bath.

Enjoy your soak, all you lovely sea witches~

Love Scrub

this scrub is great for when you feel like you need a little extra boost of self love in your life, it has a shelf life 4 months.

½ cup olive oil

1/3 cup honey

1 cup salt

Dried rose petals

Dried Rosemary 

sugar (optional)

red food coloring (2 drops)

mortar and pedestal 

grind up your herbs and then mix the herbs, olive oil and honey together in a bowl. Gradually mix in the salt. 

Continue to mix until the oil is mostly absorbed into the grains, it will be very think in consistency. if it is not doing this after a few minutes add salt or sugar in small increments until it’s a gritty oily paste ( Note you will need less salt/sugar if using a finer grain salt and more for larger grain).

Add 1 drop of red food coloring and mix well. 

store in a jar until ready for use. 

To use, scoop about a tablespoon of the scrub into damp hands and gently massage between your hands then scrub your body in circular motions. feel free to let it sit a bit. once the salt crystals have mostly dissolved then its time to rise.

Shower Disks for Attracting love

So you have seen our lovely bath magic spells but you cannot take a bath. Maybe you don’t have a bath in your current residence, maybe you are physically unable to use bathtubs, maybe you’re just super stretched for time but want to get in some extra magical umph. Recreational Witchcraft is here for you.

Shower disks are traditionally used in the aromatherapy world to relieve congestion and other flu-symptoms while showering via the use of essential oils, but we will be bumping up their magical potential.

Basic recipe:

1 cup baking soda

1 tablespoon corn starch

1/3 cup of water

Muffin tins and muffin liners

Attracting Love:

vanilla extract

essential oil of jasmine

essential oil of ylang ylang

apple seeds

1 lavender flower

pinch of cinnamon

Combine baking soda and corn starch (making sure there are no clumps), then slowly add in the water. Fill lined muffin tins about third of the way, then add in dry herbs and spices. Leave out to dry for at least 24 hours. Carefully take disks out of the liners, add your essential oils, and place your disk somewhere in your shower that will allow them to dissolve slowly while you shower. Bam, you’re done.

Note: This spell should not be used to circumvent consent or change someone’s will. Do not send us messages about the ethics of love spells.

THIS IS SO FREAKING ACCURATE WHAT

[turtlephoenix]

@shelby-melissa @graintaire Well, mine’s accurate. 

[shelbymelissa]

lol. I’m pretty sure I’ve reblogged this before. I’m a Taurus. And it is somewhat accurate. I am a collector of things. But I let my fiance run the kitchen lol.

Witch Tip (Fact)

Never feel less of a witch because you cant afford herbs, essential oils,  stones, candles! Real magic doesnt come from ingredients but from within. If you got a clear, strong intention, you are exactly where you need to be, you can cause a whole thunderstorm without even a drop of sea water! 

Your will is the ultimate source of magic!

[lunarlightmagic-blog]

Pro Tip

this one is for all you baby witches out there

Don’t let traditionalists tell you that your craft is wrong, or weak for being modern and eclectic. Your craft is just as strong, maybe even stronger, because you are connecting with and building your craft around yourself and your own energy.

Autumnal witchcraft series - Part 1: Plants & Beverages

[shitthesignssay]

Look for people with strong personalities. Are they confident in their habits? Do they display distinct qualities that most people do not possess? Do you know the person rather well? If so, this person may be a good candidate for analysis. On the other hand, does the person tend to act like everyone else? Is the person shy? Is the person quiet?

Do you think it’s rose incense and doing tarot with your friends?
