Parsley has long held a place in folk magic and witchcraft, valued for its purifying and protective qualities. Traditionally, it is used to cleanse the body and spirit, to dispel negativity, and to invite fresh energy into one’s life.
To prepare a parsley bath, begin by gathering a full bunch of fresh parsley, along with one parsley root, thoroughly washed and sliced. Place both the leaves and the root in a heatproof bowl or pot.
Carefully pour boiling water over the parsley, ensuring all parts are submerged. Allow the mixture to steep for at least fifteen minutes, so the water becomes richly infused with the plant’s essence.
Once the infusion has cooled to a comfortable temperature, strain out the solids. Add the liquid to your bathwater, stirring gently to blend the energies.
As you soak, visualize any unwanted influences dissolving and being washed away, leaving you refreshed and protected.
Please note: Parsley baths are not recommended during pregnancy, as parsley can have stimulating effects. Always consult with a healthcare professional if you have concerns or underlying health conditions.
Approach this ritual with intention and care, allowing the ancient wisdom of herbs to support your journey.
