another 'energy' thread
Energy is picked up from everywhere, some beleive, some can even 'feel' it on and around all types of things. others disbeleive "mind tricks, homie"
key note: Paper was once LIVING
many paints and inks are derived from something living as well.
(even oil based and synthetics, crude oil is prehistoryjuice after all)
energys can be picked up from people (what they're feeling, etc) and the machines the cards pass through, also the people they go through before they reach you (trading hands, being stocked, shipped, etc.) as well as the ambient energy of the biosphere itself, cleansing takes no magical ritual, time of day, altars, special stones, these things have their own energies and ways of interacting, some pull energy away, some put it there, same way electrical charge or static builds up. (look up speaker manufacturing processes, normal metals are made magnets by, you got it, putting them with a high powered magnet for a while)
my favorite method of cleansing
Prayer, in whatever form your deity is manifest, a wholehearted prayer for their blessing is all it takes I found.
Often I find the energy replaced by a more powerful but 'clean' energy.
if you've no such experience, prayer will likely be your best bet
I've much experience with energies, picking them up, transferring them.
I'd start with a closed circle (some people draw them, various methods and materials have been researched, I find I don't need any such illustration, I lay the circle of my own energy, sanctify, and it works) I'll pull the energy from the object, remove it from the circle, and let it go into the wind, or into the earth itself (a natural ground it absorbs energy readily) then replace the energy with my own, and dispel the circle.
it takes longer than a prayer but was my original method before my faith was restored.
