Also called Limpia.
I first learned how to do this ritual when I was living in Thailand for three months out of every year. However, this simple ritual is performed across the world in many cultures.I have seen amazing results with my own eyes, just by using a fresh egg and following this ritual.
The egg cleanse ritual can remove curses, energy leeches, hexes, negative energy and by some counts, physical ailments.
And I believe it is essential for anybody who may be on a budget, and can’t afford other types of cleansing services, especially if they believe they could be under negative effects from a hex or a curse. By performing the egg cleansing ritual you can assess if you should take further action.
The technique is simple. Basically, you rub an egg over the target’s body and the egg absorbs the negative energy/entities. It can be performed on both humans and animals, and you can even perform this ritual on yourself.
And what I always found the most fascinating is that after you finish rubbing the egg over the body, you can crack the egg into a glass of water and then observe what you see.
Tools
- 1 egg (you probably want to have a few spare in case that one breaks)
- 1 white candle
- A traditional incense such as copal, frankincense,or myrrh – and this must be burning from start to finish
- Salt
- A bowl or a glass
- Water (my spiritual teacher would use blessed water, some people would use holy water, or maybe you have consecrated water during a full moon event, this would be great as well). Whatever water you use you must see the water as being pure and clean.
Procedure
Light the white candle. It represents purity and cleanness. Light the incense.
If you believe in a deity, make a short prayer asking your deity for their assistance.
Tip – I always connect to my spiritual masters, my higher guardian, my spirit guides, and of course my deity. Connecting with source energy into my body and down through my feet is a technique I use but that is totally optional for you. This is one way I stay grounded during rituals.
Consecrate the egg:
Pass the egg through the smoke a few times. As you’re doing so you’re asking the spiritual guides to transform the egg into a collection vessel, which will be capable of absorbing any negative energy or entities that do not serve the persons highest purpose. You can say whatever you want to say and that is relevant to the situation.
Dip your fingertips into the water and flick the water onto the egg. You’re blessing the egg to have even more power to absorb and contain negativity.
CLEANSE
- Starting at the top of the subject’s head, begin rubbing the subject’s body with the egg, the way you would use a sponge to clean dirt off of them. Personally I perform a sweeping motion with the egg, starting from the top of the body, and moving around from the front to the back, moving down the body section by section, while knowing the egg is absorbing any negativity during this process.
- You do not touch the body with the egg. The egg is a couple inches from the body at all times.
If the egg breaks during the ritual: That’s okay don’t freak out. It means there was so much negativity one egg wasn’t sufficient to contain it all. Put the egg aside in a separate container, and continue on with a fresh egg.
- Sometimes it means that there are strong evil spirits trying to stop the ritual.
Finished? If you’re working on someone else you may choose to visually wipe any negativity away from you at that time by either smudging or doing the egg ritual on yourself. If you evoked deity earlier, thank them for aiding your working.
DIVINATION (Optional)
When you’re done, crack the egg open and drop the yolk and egg white into the water. Let it sit undisturbed for 15 to 30 minutes. Many times you may see the effect of the egg immediately, but sometimes you can take a little time to see if there was any negativity inside the egg a.k.a. inside the target.
After 30 minutes, use the interpretation guide below to interpret the egg yolk and egg white to see what negativity was removed from the subject.
DISPOSAL
Pour the egg and holy water into the toilet, toss in the salt (which neutralizes energy, an extra safety precaution) and then flush the toilet, removing the negativity from the subject and you forever.
EGG DIVINATION
Study the egg in the water and look for the following:
The Best Result – If the water is clear without any abnormality, it means that the individual’s aura is clean.
Small bubbles: negative energy (e.g. residual negative emotional energy) was successfully removed.
Web or mesh pattern: negative energy that was explicitly entrapping you was removed.
Pointy shapes, like pins or nails, pointing up: envious people are working against you, but not using magick; their energy was removed.
Pointy shapes, like pins or nails, pointing down:
- When you see pointy images that look like needles or nails, it means someone has cast black magic spells on you.
- OR, your own negativity was working against you; the negativity was removed but could reappear if the negativity persists.
An eye pattern: the effects of the evil eye were removed. OR it means someone is watching you. It could be an evil or love eye.
Blood: If there is blood in the egg, it means the presence of a crossed condition.
- Blood spots or streaks: a (non-demonic) negative spirit’s influence was removed, e.g. an energy leech.
- Black spots or streaks: a curse, hex or jinx was removed.
Murky water without blood or black spots: The presence of black spots could mean that you have a disease.
Foul smell: powerful negative magick was removed.
- If the egg has a rotten smell, it is a bad sign and requires further protection work.
Sulphur smell: a demon was harassing the subject.
The yolk is floating halfway down: someone is working negative magick of moderate strength against you.
The yolk is floating at the top of the water: someone is working negative magick of powerful strength against you.
A face-like shape can be seen: an enemy is working against you. Traditionally, slim faces indicate men and rounded faces indicate women.
