Ok this might get a little long… there are lots of uses for egg shells!
So egg shells are naturally protective. If you wash them and clean them, then grind them into a powder, you can actually use them as an alternative to salt for casting circles outside since egg shells are actually GOOD for the soil and plants as opposed to salt which will kill everything. Since those egg shells are good for the soil and plants and give plants nutrients, they are a great addition to soil for added nutrients. They are loaded with calcium, potassium, nitrogen and phosphorus which are all fantastic for your plants! SO because of this, I would definitely recommend subbing egg shells for salt if you absolutely HAVE to bury a spell. Just make sure all the rest of the ingredients INCLUDING the vessel or what you are burying it in are safe to go into the ground as well.
Speaking of plants… you can also add herbs to your eggshell powder to make a magical powder with specific intent as well. You can also make that eggshell powder (or magical powder) into a chalk-like stick and use it to write sigils around your property or home or whatever else (as long as you aren’t vandalizing things… don’t do that).
Eggshells are also really good in healing spells as well, or spells where something requires nurturing. You can also use them as a representation of a womb if you need that for something. I also correspond eggshells to fertility to a certain extent. You can also use them very effectively in cleansing and purification rituals, on top of already being protective. They really really handy!
Now since you mentioned curses, you can DEFINITELY use them in baneful magic. I don’t use the powder for curses so much as just broken, jagged bits of eggshells. Have to ever poked your finger on a sharp, broken eggshell? Things hurt! Throw those in a curse jar to slice up your target or even to break them. Alternatively, you can also take the phrase “walking on eggshells” to heart and make a curse so that your target is always feeling that annoying feeling of walking on eggshells.
