Ask:
Where and when was it made?
Who might have used it?
What rituals or traditions was it involved in?
Example: A bronze amulet from ancient Egypt may represent protection from evil forces, linked to the goddess Isis.
Step 3: Cleanse the Relic (Spiritually and Physically)
Relics may carry residual energy from previous owners—both positive and negative. Cleansing removes these imprints and prepares the object for your use.
Physical Cleaning:
Gently wipe with a soft cloth.
Avoid harsh chemicals; use a dry brush or mild water if necessary.
Don’t alter or damage original markings.
Spiritual Cleaning Methods (Choose One):
Smudging: Pass the object through smoke from white sage, palo santo, or incense.
Salt Bath: Place the item in a bowl of sea salt overnight (for non-metal/non-porous objects).
Moonlight Charging: Leave under full moonlight for one night to purify and energize.
Step 4: Create a Sacred Space
Before attempting to activate the relic’s energy, prepare a quiet, clean, and intentional environment. This space should encourage reflection, connection, and receptivity.
Light candles (preferably white or violet).
Place crystals (such as amethyst, clear quartz) around the area.
Play low-frequency ambient music or natural sounds.
