Cleansing a Deck
Cleansing a deck is a small ritual to reset the cards before or after reading, as a way of marking a fresh start.
Common methods include knocking on the deck, passing it through incense smoke, leaving it in moonlight, or simply shuffling with a clear intention. None are essential, and you should choose something that feels right to you.
Many readers cleanse a new deck, after emotionally heavy readings, or when they simply want to begin again.
Whatever you choose, the real effect is on the reader: a calm pause helps you arrive in the moment.
