Cascarilla & Efun In Your Practice + Their Uses
To day in this post I want to speak on spiritual Earth, things that are made from the earth like clay, shell, this form is used different ways. This chalk is an good tool to have in your practice.
It comes from the bark of the Croton elutaria tree that is found in the Caribbean and places like South America. Also is found in traditions of western Africa.
The concept of of this is in all West African diasporic practices including Hoodoo, Vodun/Voodoo, Santeria, Candomblé, Umbanda, Palo, and others. The word 'efun' is Yoruba translates in english meaning ‘chalk.’ In the tradition like Candomblé, efun is a ritual to initiate’s where the head and body is shaved and then decorated with tribal circles or dots (as seen above) useing chalk that was made from white clay, eggshells, or limestone powder. Some practices even use it to make a cross on there arms or on the bottom of their feet before a ritual bath.
Cascarilla & Efun: Sacred White Earth. Over time after useing the bark, other African religions such as Santeria or even in hoodoo and others in the US started using crushed powder egg shells. These were easier to get.
Cascarilla: ☝️Made from white eggshells, particularly from a Black Hen.
Efun: ☝️Efun is a white chalk that is comprised of ground snail shell and white clay.
What's Are They Really Used For. It is used for a offering Butt NOT a food offering, but an offering to deities of White meaning a of high elevated energies. (God) for example. In Africa it would be to Obatala and other high level good energies.
It's used for magical writings, painting the body during rituals, and as a medicine. In the Bantu system you have 'zumbi' other African practices like Vodou uses Zombi. (Snake deity) Or the God in the Heavens and God on earth like Nyambe/Nzambe.
("A little fact the majority of the Bantu people like others in Africa were and still are Muslim and the small percentage Christian")
Cascarilla Powder: The can be sprinkle anywhere to ward off negative energy: your home, altar, bedroom & your body. Add it to your protection powder. It’s also good to used in bath & washes, even in your divinations. I can tell you it has many uses.
Cascarilla Chalk: It can be used to make sacred symbols, magickal sigils, or veve’s and definition. (Sigils used in different Vodun/Voodoo practices). Cascarilla chalk can also be used to mark boundaries for sacred space sites or decorate sacred items.
Modern Witchcraft Uses: the power of eggshell powder has become prominent among other traditions, including Wicca. However, most non-West African diasporic traditions refer to Cascarilla simply as eggshell powder.
For Cleaning: If you want to cleanse yourself, make a mix of Florida Water & Cascarilla for a simple yet effective spiritual bath simple yet effective. (You can also add dry ingredients to it) You can also add it to a premade floor wash like the Chinese wash.

Cascarilla Powder
Today, my mother and I both on our own paths, made our own versions of cascarilla powder and chalk. Cascarilla is basically just a fancy name for eggshell powder, not to be confused with Croton eluteria, which is a herb native to the Caribbean.
Anne’s Cascarilla Powder
things you need:
Eggshells ( dried & if you’re using a mortar and pestle, remove the inner membrane )
Pink Salt ( Pink Himalayan is what I use )
Mortar & Pestle or Coffee bean Grinder ( mine isn’t used for anything other than magick )
what to do:
Honestly? Just grind it up as fine as you want it and put it in a container.
According to my mother you should do this with good intent otherwise, what’s the use?
Mother Amaeredal’s Cascarilla Powder for Protection
things you need:
Eggshells
Pink Salt
Red Brick Dust
Mortar & Pestle or Grinder
what to do:
Grind your eggshells, pink salt, and red brick powder until it is semi-fine.
Push all of your intent into it and place into a container.

Croton eluteria
Croton eluteria, known as Cascarilla, is a plant species of the genus Croton, that is native to the Caribbean. It has been naturalized in other tropical regions of the Americas. It grows to be a small tree or tall shrub, rarely reaching 20 feet in height. Leaves scanty, alternate, ovate-lanceolate, averaging 2 inches long, closely scaled below, giving a metallic silver-bronze appearance, with scattered white scales above. The flowers are small, with white petals, and very fragrant, appearing in March and April. The scented bark is fissured, pale yellowish brown, and may be covered in lichen. Tincture from the bark is used as a tonic and stimulant, and a fever reducer. Cascarilla bark is also used to flavour the liqueurs Campari and Vermouth. More details Android, Windows
