Exploring the Mystery of Egg Cleansing

In summary, the conversation discusses the practice of "egg cleansing", where a local "Bruja" in a small village in Mexico would rub a chicken egg over a person's body to rid them of bad energy. She would then crack the egg into a bowl and it would appear black, supposedly showing the amount of evil the person had been carrying. However, there is skepticism about the legitimacy of this practice, with suggestions that the egg may be switched or altered beforehand. Some believe the egg may be injected with dyes or even animal blood to create the black appearance. Overall, there is doubt about the effectiveness of egg cleansing and it is considered by some to be a scam.

"Egg Cleansing"

A friend of mine, whose mother grew up in a small village in Mexico, related to me her mother's story of the local "Bruja". Among other things, this woman performed an "egg cleansing" on people to rid them of bad mojo they had collected. She would rub a common chicken egg over their body, claiming that the egg was absorbing bad energy. Then, to demonstrate how much evil they had been carrying around, she would crack the egg into a bowl and it would be black. To prove it wasn't some sort of prepared egg, she had them bring their own egg from home.

Clearly she would have had ample opportunity to switch eggs while rubbing it on their backs, but I am not sure how she would make an egg turn black.

Has anyone heard of this trick? If so, how is the egg turned black?

Egg cleansing, often referred to as an "egg cleanse" or "limpia," is a ritual or practice in some cultures and belief systems, particularly within folk or alternative medicine traditions. It is believed to be a method for spiritual or energetic purification and healing. The practice involves using a raw egg to remove negative energies, bad luck, and other spiritual impurities from a person's energy field or body. While the specifics of egg cleansing can vary across cultures and regions, here is a general overview of the process:

  1. Preparation: The person performing the egg cleanse usually starts by setting an intention for the ritual. This intention is typically related to removing negative energy, curses, or spiritual disturbances.
  2. Choosing the Egg: A fresh, raw egg is commonly used. Some practitioners prefer organic or farm-fresh eggs. The color of the eggshell may also have significance in some traditions.
  3. The Cleansing Process:
    • The person undergoing the cleansing ceremony is typically fully clothed.
    • The practitioner, also known as a curandero, shaman, or spiritual healer, holds the raw egg in their hand.
    • Starting at the crown of the person's head, the practitioner slowly moves the egg down the person's body, often in a downward motion, making sweeping or circular motions. Sometimes, the egg is moved all over the body or through the person's energy field.
    • The practitioner may recite prayers or chants during the process, intended to release and remove negative energies.
  4. Inspection: After the cleansing, the practitioner may break the egg into a container of water. The patterns, bubbles, and the yolk's appearance inside the egg are believed to reveal information about the person's spiritual state. If the egg appears cloudy, has strange shapes, or has blood spots, it is often interpreted as a sign of spiritual disturbance or negative energy.
  5. Discarding the Egg: The egg, along with the water, is disposed of in an appropriate and respectful manner, which can vary among different cultures and beliefs.
It's important to note that egg cleansing is considered a spiritual or alternative healing practice, and its effectiveness is a matter of personal belief. Some individuals may find it helpful for their emotional well-being and spiritual needs, while others may view it as a cultural or superstitious practice. If you're interested in egg cleansing, it's advisable to seek guidance from experienced practitioners who can perform the ritual correctly and provide context for its significance within their cultural or spiritual tradition.
