#eggshells
I’m a “green” witch. I work with plants. I grow all kinds of things. And let me tell you, eggshells are my best friend. They’ve become essential to my practice where my plants are concerned.
What eggshells are good for:
♡ Extra nutrients for your green babes
♡ Pest/bug deterrent
♡ Spells
♡ Protection (can be used as a replacement for salt)
♡ Feeling witchy (imagine the poof of powder floating around you and your plants as you recite an incantation)
Whenever I use eggs, I keep the eggshells and rinse them clean in water. After they dry, I grind them up into a fine powder/dust with my mortar and pestle. I keep the powder in a small mason jar with a charged sigil drawn on the lid for plant growth and protection. When I feel that my plant babes need it, I sprinkle the powder around them in a circle and over top of them. Sometimes I’ll say or think the words “growth and protection” to make my intent clear. The eggshell on the plant’s leaves and in the soil will deter insects that like to chew on your lil babes and provide a calcium boost. Depending on what type of spell you want to perform, you can also mix other organic materials (that are beneficial to your plants) in with the eggshell powder.
As an added bonus, this spell never fails to bring me closer to my plants ♡
Eggshell Protection Powder for home
(This is the process that works for me, practices and traditions vary)
1: Save old eggshells.
In this batch I used approximately 10 eggs.
If you choose, use a number of eggs which could be magically or energetically significant.
Wash eggshells in hot water and set aside to dry. Some people will take the extra step to peel the inner membrane off in order to get a finer powered, but I didn’t mind if it was chunkier.2: Bake eggshells for 10 min at 250 degrees.
Watch them closely, don’t let them burn! Allow time to cool.3: To pulverize the shells:
A clean coffee/herb grinder will work, but I prefer my pestle and mortar in order to work my intentions in kinetically.
-I do a lot of spirit work so I also added protective/purifying herbs including himalayan salt, pepper, red pepper, and angelica root.
As I set my intentions during grinding, I left a ‘door’ for the specific spirits which are my primary contacts so as not to inadvertently wall them out.4: Transfer powder to clean, air tight storage.
- Use a small funnel and a reused salt or small herb jar and gently transfer powder. Pour in batches in order not to accidentally over spill. I made more powder then this jar could hold so I ended up transferring to a larger one.5: Use
After smoke and bell cleansing the house,
I sprinkled the powder around the perimeter of the property and along all door and windowsills.There ya have it!
Layer your protections with other techniques such as sigils, energy shields, salt rings or protective entities and enjoy an energetically safe home!

Cascarilla Keep Away Powder
This next spell promises to provide safety from law enforcement agencies, bill collectors, or any unwanted interference from the authorities. Although authorities may appear and attempt to exert their power, this version of Cascarilla Powder allegedly prevents them from succeeding.
- Follow this instructions [linked above] for making white Cascarilla Powder–dried eggshell powder–with the proviso that the eggs must come from a black hen.
- Place this powder under your front doorstep and/or make an unbroken circle with it around your house or property.

Black Salt
Black salt is traditionally used by witches as a protection ingredient that can be added to spells, baths, or sprinkled in the home.
My own black salt includes:
Salt
Charcoal
Black Pepper
Incense Ash
After sweeping & saging my front door, I sprinkle black salt in the entrance to keep all negativity out
