Cleansing Your Cards

Cleansing Your Cards

When to Cleanse

As with so many things tarot-related, there are no absolutes. Here are some points when some readers feel the need to cleanse or clear their cards:

1. after a very challenging reading

2. after many readings in a row

3. before using a new deck

4. after the cards have lain dormant for a while

5. after a milestone, life change, or shift in spiritual belief

6. at certain times of the year, such as holidays, birthdays, or full moons

7. before using a second-hand deck

8. when feeling disconnected from the cards (this may be more of a case of the reader grounding his or herself rather than cleansing the cards)

9. if someone has touched your deck without your permission

 I like to cleanse my cards, especially when I am doing back to back readings for customers. My preferred method is to knock on the deck, at least 3 times, like you would a door. I helps to clear the cards for the next reading. When possible, I have the customers knock on the cards to clear old energies from the deck (past readings) so they can put their energy in the cards for their own reading. - Tater
