You Will Need: 1 Dozen eggs Mortar and pestle Empty potion jar

Timing: Best crafted on Ostara morning to be blessed that evening. Full moons and new moons are also a great time to make this powder year-round.

Set eggshells to dry. If you would like to speed up the drying process, arrange the shells on a cookie sheet and bake at 200 degrees Fahrenheit for 30 minutes. Allow shells to cool completely.

Transfer your shells into your mortar and pestle for grinding. Here the magick is in the grinding process and energy. Grind in clockwise motions. As your grind, find a rhythm of release. As the shells crack, lean into their forgiving breakdown. Remember, without release no new start can be truly fresh.

Once you find your rhythm, incant: “Break and grind, free and find The past behind, and future near Break and grind, free and find Your fear is gone, the path is clear”

Once eggshells are ground to your liking, transfer to your potion jar.

Add a pinch of salt to seal the powder. Close jar tight.

Place on your windowsill to charge in the Ostara moonlight.
