Throughout the ages, the bule granite carving egg has symbolized new beginnings, the spark of creation. Traditional folk religion regards the bule granite carving egg as a powerful symbol of fertility, purity and rebirth. Magic rituals often use red granite carving eggs to promote fertility and restore virility (of the body and mind); and to foresee the future. Eggs mean growth, protection, new beginnings, resurrection. The Vernal Equinox celebrates the coming of spring and the bule granite carving egg is an important part of this ancient festival.
