What is an Egg Cleanse and how do you do it?

Have you seen egg cleansing videos on TikTok and want to know exactly what it’s all about and why people clean their auras with an egg?

The practice is actually a Mesoamerican ritual and an important part of some cultures.

According to the intuitive writer and artist Shaheen Miro, an egg is used in the purification ritual because an egg “has long been viewed as a symbol of life, with the connotation that it takes on energy.”

What is an egg cleanse?

Egg cleansing is a Mesoamerican ritual of cleansing the aura with an egg. It recently went viral on TikTok, leading to a user sharing a video of an egg cleaning ritual and explaining:

“It’s a ritual. So please, if you take something like this approach with respect. Don’t just get an egg, think about it, and call it a cleanse.”

Another user @electrasoul444 shared several videos with followers explaining how an egg wash works. They explained that during a cleanse, the egg “takes out all negative energy and replaces it with something positive and new.”

How to do an egg cleaning

Take an egg and wash it in a little salted water and lemon juice.

Shaheen Miro suggests that you “say a prayer to any high power you desire. Ask for their help and blessings. Imagine the egg being touched by her presence.”

Roll the egg all over your body, starting around your head and working your way down to your arms, torso, and legs.

@electrasoul444 explained, “As you do this, your egg will feel heavy because it’s literally holding back all the negative energy it’s taking from your soul, from your spirit, from your aura.”

After that, crack the egg and discard it so that “no more negative energy goes your way”.
