The Bath of Venus

Ancient Greek society gave honor to the bath time ritual. They had stories of the female gods bathing, such as Artemis in the forest waters, Hera retrieving her virginity in a spring, and Aphrodite (Venus) enriched in cleansing waters. The Greeks had statues of Venus removing clothes, removing jewelry, and getting into or out of her bath.

Our bathing rituals could stem from the example of Venus, washing our hair, using a mirror to restore our appearance, and just soaking in the bathtub. The soaking was seen as a spiritual practice of removing oneself from the pressures of the hectic world and simply renewing one’s feeling of peace. We have adapted to this by paying for massages and spa treatments, pedicures and manicures, etc. It has the same outcome: a renewed peaceful outlook on life and the current problems we are facing.

“When you take a bath, you soak your soul as well as your body.” Even the sound of running water is a part of the healing. Using fragrant oils was to Venus like a healing for the skin and spirit, awakening all the senses. Disrobing was Venus’ way of moving past shame into appreciation for the beauty of the human form.

Many people remodel and redecorate their bathrooms, realizing that this is the place where their soul feels renewed. Can you remember a time when you took a bath and it calmed your fears or helped you through a rough day? We may have trouble thinking of a time when a bath didn’t do those things! (Reference: Parabola Magazine Vol. 34 No. 2)
