Eggs, obviously are representative of fertility. They also make great psychic cleansers, as they absorb negative energy. Crushed and pulverized eggshells can be used as chalk to draw magickal seals. Eggshells are also added to incense blends to remove jinxes.
Here are some common uses for eggs in magick:
- Eat a whole salted hard-boiled egg on the new moon for rejuvenation and rebirth.
- To cleanse a house of bad energy place nine whole raw eggs around the home. After nine days, remove the eggs and dispose of them.
- For uncrossing, roll an uncooked hen’s egg over the body to collect negative energy and bad vibes. Discard by throwing into a crossroads or at a tree.
Eggs from a black hen are used in many Hoodoo and Root Magic Spells. For this reason, the musician Blind Willie McTell relates in an old blues song that his mother told him, “Don’t drink no black cow’s milk; don’t eat no black hen’s egg.”

In Hoodoo
Many items in Hoodoo can be used for great good and great evil , like entities ( crossroads God for example ) , so can egg .
We can rub them all over our body, in order to absorb negativity ( best if it is a brown egg purchased on midday ), that are later thrown away into a stream , offhouse , or even on crossroads .
Black hen eggs are very much powerful in Folk craft so are in hoodoo . Used for cleansing and purification , and even for love . Also for crossing and hexing an enemy even to bring death . Sometimes in harder work spells it is required that egg be laid by a hen that has never laid eggs , or that is laid on particular day (maybe even a hour ).
Eggs can be also used to banish someone away in Hoodoo as in this example :
TO MAKE SOMEONE GO AWAY
It is necessary to go to the place where the enemy gets his water-a pump or hydrant. In a rural area or his own sink elsewhere. Draw some of that water and as the sun rises throw the water as far away from you as possible. Then break an egg on the ground. In three days the person will leave town.
