๐ฅโจ A Beginner's Guide: Exploring Egg Cleansing + Purifying Energy with Ancient Ritual โจ๐ฅ
๐ฎ Preparation: To perform an egg cleansing, you'll need a fresh, raw egg and a quiet, sacred space where you can perform the ritual undisturbed. Some practitioners choose to bless or consecrate the egg before use, invoking divine protection and guidance.
๐งผ Cleansing Ritual: Begin by rubbing the raw egg gently over the body or aura of the person being cleansed, starting from the crown of the head and moving downward to the feet. Alternatively, you can pass the egg over the body without touching it, maintaining a few inches of distance.
๐ซ Intent and Visualization: As you perform the cleansing, focus your intention on absorbing and removing any negative energy, blockages, or attachments that may be present. Visualize the egg acting as a magnet, drawing out and absorbing all forms of negativity and impurities from the person's energy field.
๐ฅ Egg Reading: After the cleansing is complete, crack the egg into a glass or bowl of water and observe the patterns, shapes, and textures formed by the egg white and yolk. Some practitioners believe that these patterns can reveal information about the person's energy, emotions, and spiritual condition.
๐ฟ Disposal: Once the egg reading is complete, dispose of the egg and its contents in a respectful manner. Some traditions recommend burying it in the earth, while others suggest disposing of it in running water or leaving it at a crossroads as an offering to spirits.
Egg cleansing is believed to promote spiritual purification, healing, and balance by clearing away negative energy and restoring harmony to the energy body. It can be performed regularly as part of a spiritual maintenance practice or as needed to address specific issues or concerns. Whether you're seeking to release emotional baggage, dispel negative influences, or restore spiritual vitality, egg cleansing offers a gentle yet effective way to cleanse and purify the body, mind, and spirit. ๐ฟ๐

Thereโs a marked tradition of cleaning and airing out the house in the springtime when the weather warms. As youโre dusting and tidying and getting rid of winter stagnation, take some time to do the same with your craft.
Clean and organize your workspace. If you have an altar space or a shelf where you keep bottles and jars and the like, remove everything from the surface and give it a good dusting. Take the opportunity to rearrange things or swap out pieces if it suits you. If you have ritual tools that donโt often get cleaned, check them for signs or rust or wear and give them a bit of love. Repair things that need fixing, if you can. If you have an iron cauldron that you use for fire magic, get a wire brush or some steel wool and gently remove any burnt residue left inside.
Sort through your supplies. If you have lots of candles and crystals and small items laying about, consider getting some small totes or craft organizers to keep things tidy. Divided storage boxes for beads or scrapbooking supplies are great for small items, and shoebox-sized caddies are perfect for taper, chime, and votive candles. Organizing things will make your space easier to navigate and also gives you a proper idea of what you have on hand. Which might help you resist impulse purchases the next time youโre out shopping for witchcraft supplies. While youโre tidying, be sure to discard any rubbish, candle stubs, wax blobs, herb scraps, bits of string, incense bases, and so forth that might be cluttering up the place.ย
Discard things that are too old or worn to be useful. Dried plants and seasonings can usually be kept for 1-3 years if they remain in sealed containers. If they have no scent anymore or smell musty or mildewy, discard them and sanitize the container. If youโre using supermarket spices, you can use the expiration date on the container as a guide. Powdered material will likely last longer than whole herbs or cut-and-sifted material. One helpful tip is to put a purchase date on packets or bags of herbs when you buy them, or to put a little date sticker on your jars of herbs when you refill them. (Anyone whoโs worked in food service will probably be familiar with the concept of container dating or day-dotting.)
If you make oils or tinctures or suchlike in your practice, check on these as well. Make sure nothing has gone off or lost itsโ potency. Day-dotting your potion containers will help with this as well. A simple sticker with the name of the brew and the date it was bottled will help you keep track of your supplies and know when something needs to be tossed and replaced. (You can also print labels with the ingredients and purpose of the brew if youโre feeling super organized.)
Reorganize your books and resources. Review what's there and see if there are any materials that need to be weeded out, donated, or discarded. Remember that as you grow and progress, some things will become obsolete or may show themselves to be unhelpful or inaccurate. It's okay to remove things from your resource library that no longer serve you if you want to make some space on the shelves.
You can also cleanse your workspace and/or components while youโre tidying if you wish. It doesnโt have to be a full clean-slate-everything-must-go cleansing, but it can be helpful to just clear out stagnation or bring in some freshness and vitality.
Happy Witching!
