What is the difference between purification and banishing?

Purification clears and renews, returning a space to a clean baseline. Banishing drives out a specific unwanted influence. Practitioners often use both in sequence: banishing to remove something, then purification to restore balance and clarity.

When should I use the purification mix in a ritual?

Use it before any ritual to clear the space or tools, or after a heavy working to reset the altar. It also works between different types of practice to prevent the energy of one working from affecting the next ritual intention.

Can I use this blend in a bath for personal cleansing?

Yes. Brew as a strong tea, strain thoroughly, and add the liquid to a bath. Soak for 15 to 20 minutes with attention on releasing residual influences. This is a common method for personal spiritual cleansing.

How is this different from a banishing spell mix?

Purification is preparatory and restorative, aimed at readiness and clarity. Banishing is confrontational, aimed at a specific unwanted influence. Both serve different roles and are often used in sequence to clear compromised conditions.
