I find that most of the time baths are more powerful than ritual, since it is known that a bath can cleanse with purifying the body as well as ridding the body of stress and negative energy.
I do most of my spells in the bath, for it is calm and peaceful and very soothing and it puts me in a magcikal frame of mind.
most spell work I do in in the tub instead of at my alter, but what I find most effective in spell work and manifestation is taking a bath while focusing on your intent ,following the bath I focus at my alter, this is has brought me the highest level of success when working with spells and manifestations.
here are a few bath spells-
A HEALING BATH-
Take a lit silver or white candle, some salt, and a healing oil (such as carnation, violet,
sandalwood, or narcissus) into the bathroom. By the candle's light run a tub of very warm water.
Cast some salt into it, add a few drops of healing oil, and then step into the tub.
Relax. Feel the warm salted water sinking into your pores, through your skin, sterilizing the
sick portions of your body. Visualize the 'black worms' leaving it, if you wish, and when you
feel the water teeming with them pull the plug and let the water drain out. While it is draining, chant:
The sickness is flowing out of me,
Into the water, down to the sea.
Only when the tub is completely drained stand up. It is best to immediately splash your body with
fresh water (a shower is ideal) to remove the last vestiges of the disease of sickness-laden water.
Repeat as needed to speed your body's recovery
BATH SPELL FOR NEGATIVITY-
Place 1/2 cup vinegar, a bunch of fresh rue and 1 tablespoon of salt in your bath.
Light a white and a blue candle. Imagine yourself surrounded by blue light, giving you positive energy.
Visualize all of the negative energy leaving your body through every pore
STIMULATING-
basil, bay leaf, citronella, fennel, lavender, lemon, lemon verbena,
peppermint, oregano, pine, rosemary.
RELIEF OF DEPRESSION-
rose, geranium, lavender, patchouli
STRESS RELIEF-
lemon balm, rose, jasmine, sage, lavender
RELAXING-
catnip, chamomile, Comfrey, elder, evening primrose (flowers), jasmine (flowers),
lemon balm, rose (petals), Vervain, tansy (flowers).
FOR ACHING MUSCLES-

Agrimony, bay leaf, mugwort, oregano, sage, strawberry (leaves).
MAGICKAL BATH-
To be used prior to rituals or magical workings:
Mix up in a 4-inch square cheesecloth, equal parts of the following:
Vervain, Mint, Basil, Thyme, Fennel, Lavender, Rosemary, Hyssop, Valerian.
Light a white candle. Run a bath one quarter full of very warm water, & add the herbs.
Relax in the bath, squeezing the herbal bag to release the herbs.
You can use a natural soap to clean yourself physically while the herbs cleanse you psychically.
When you are finished, dry yourself, dress as desired and take the candle with
you to the room where your ritual or magic is to be performed.
The white candle can then be used to light the God and Goddess candles
and you can commence your workings as desired.
