Ritual Practice

Place a whole, raw egg in a bowl. Hold it gently, then tap it with a spoon just enough to create a single fracture line. Carefully peel away a small piece of shell, symbolizing intentional vulnerability. Place the fragment on a piece of black paper and trace its outline with a silver pen, naming one new beginning you are protecting.

Questions for Reflection

"What new beginnings am I currently facing?"
"How do I cope with vulnerability in my life?"
