Inspired by this post, I decided to create a Midsummer bath last night after sunset! It was a great way to connect with the energy of the season. I know it’s a bit late to share the recipe, but I figure it’s good for anytime between now and Lughnasadh, and perfect whenever you need a boost of summery energy (though if it’s cold out you might want to skip the last step!). I used a fair number of ingredients, so modify this however you need to to suit your budget and available materials!
You’ll need:
☀️ 4-5 ginger tea bags (black tea bags and ginger slices work too!) ☀️ 1 cup of honey** ☀️ Red and yellow food coloring ☀️ a couple oranges and/or lemons, sliced ☀️ Lavender sprigs (please wash them first!) ☀️ Gold bath-safe glitter (not visible in the pictures, but it’s there!) ☀️ Beeswax candles ☀️ Tealights and/or yellow and orange candles ☀️ Midsummer-related crystals (I used citrine, fluorite, rutilated quartz, fuchsite/aventurine, green goldstone, and rock crystal (clear) quartz) ☀️ Sandalwood or lavender incense/candles ☀️ Spa water (if you stay in the bath as long as I do, you’ll want this. Trust me) ▫️ ▫️ ▫️ Midsummer Spa Water: add lemon slices, cucumber slices, celery sticks, and mint sprigs to a pitcher, then fill it to the top with ice water and stir it around. It’s ready to drink right away! You can also freeze it to make super refreshing ice cubes.
Start running your bath - make it a little hotter than you normally would (please be safe, though! Don’t burn yourself). Add the tea bags and honey. You might need to stir the water around with your hands a bit to mix the honey in, and you can check the temperature at the same time. If you choose not to use honey, a drop of orange or lavender essential oil makes a great substitute.
While the bath is filling, set up your candles, incense, and crystals around the edges of the tub. I prefer to keep the incense across the room so it doesn’t overpower the scents of the other ingredients. If you can’t burn incense or candles, try a lavender room spray. Add red and yellow food coloring to the water until you’ve achieved a summery, sunny orange!
When the bath is full, toss in the orange/lemon slices and the lavender sprigs. Sprinkle a bit of gold glitter across the surface, dim the lights, and get in! It’ll be like a lovely-smelling hot tub with much better atmosphere :) This is when that spa water will come in handy - don’t let yourselves get dehydrated, witches!
Once you’ve had enough of the heat, turn on some icy cold water. Try not to splash around too much (otherwise you’ll just end up with a gross room-temperature bath), instead letting the cold water sink to the bottom of the tub. The feeling of hot water on the surface with cold water underneath is super refreshing and perfectly suited to Midsummer - the sun is beginning its decline into winter now. Enjoy it for a bit, then get out before you get chilly!
Don’t forget to put out your candles. Have a fun and safe summer ☀️
**Vagina owners, please be careful with using honey in your bathwater! The sugar can cause yeast infections.

i'm just curious bc i'm watching How to Train Your Dragon and i always forget how happy and calm it makes me feel. i mean, i did name my cat after Toothless the dragon. but i also love Lion King, that's my Disney comfort movie. and my Ghibli comfort movie is Spirited Away. watching any of these when i'm in a foul mood or my anxiety is high always helps 🥰 but i watch them just for fun too, not only when i'm in a mood. what about you?
