This spell uses symbolism in the use of the fig and egg, but also ancient methods of acknowledgement in the offering to the Earth Mother for fertility. Crops were often offered to the goddess in the hope of a good harvest and in this spell that hope is for new life. The spell is best done at the time of the New Moon or in spring time when the Goddess of Fertility is commemorated

This spell is full of symbolism. The fig represents not

only fertility, but also is thought to feed the psyche that part of us that some call the soul. The egg is an

ancient symbol of fertility and indeed of the

beginning of life. Bringing the two together

acknowledges your sense of responsibility for the

continuation of life
