There aren’t many better representations of the ocean than seashells. Easy to acquire, they carry the mighty energy of the endless sea. The ocean, of course, also aligns with the Great Goddess energy, numerous deities, and the tides of emotion within ourselves.

Being a fan of both Hoodoo and the traditions of the African diaspora, I personally favor cowrie shells, but any type of shell may be used.

All of life evolved from the ocean. Additionally, we are always evolving personally in this lifetime, on every level: physically, emotionally, cognitively, spiritually, and so on.

Place one seashell (or more, if you wish to gift them to friends) in a cup with sea salt. As you fill the cup halfway with water, enchant the shell by saying the following nine times:

As the tides do turn and the
earth revolves, this shell is
enchanted so that I may evolve!
