Cleansing your tarot cards is important to maintaining positive energy in your readings and strengthening your connection with your deck. In this article I will look at several different techniques, which will help you clear your Tarot deck, as well as situations when you need to use these techniques.
When Should You Cleanse Your Tarot Deck?
As a rule, you yourself will know when you need to cleanse your Tarot cards - there is an incomprehensible feeling that something is wrong with your cards and that something needs to be changed. Here are some examples of different situations when you might want to consider cleansing your tarot cards:
How to Clear a Tarot Deck
There are many different techniques you can use to clear your tarot deck of negative energy. It's important to find a technique (or techniques) that works for you personally or for your particular situation (for example, you might use one technique after every reading session and another for your annual deck cleansing). Below are various ways clear the tarot deck.
Sorting and Shuffling. First, collect your cards in order, starting with the Major Arcana, then sorting the remaining cards by suit. While you do this, look briefly at each card and remember the special message it conveys to you in your readings. You can also use this time to check that all the cards are in place (a few years ago, I discovered that I had lost the Ace of Swords while doing fortune telling with this deck!!!). Once your cards are sorted, begin shuffling your deck. You may want to shuffle the deck seven times, spread out your cards on the surface, shuffle them and reassemble them, or simply use whatever shuffling technique is comfortable for you.
Meditation. Take your cards in both hands, close your eyes and relax. Allow your mind to be free of any thoughts and just “be” with the cards. You can also visualize the Universal energy flowing through you into your cards, surrounding them with a protective white light. Those who know Reiki can use this energy healing method to cleanse their cards by transferring Reiki healing energy to the cards. For me personally this is best method, as it is easy to apply after each reading and helps me focus and concentrate on my next client.
Moon baths. The full moon is a wonderful source of energy for your cards. When the moon is full, you can simply place your cards near a window or even outside so that the moonlight illuminates them. Many people also use this time to perform a special ritual or to cast a spell to cleanse their tarot cards.
Salt. Salt can be used to remove negative energy from your cards. To begin, place your tarot cards in a plastic box. Then take a hermetically sealed container that is larger than your tarot cards, place your cards inside and then completely cover your cards with salt on all sides, top and bottom. Your cards should always be in an airtight container, as salt will not only absorb the energy of your cards, it will also absorb moisture that may be present in the air and potentially harmful to the cards. Keep your cards buried in salt for at least a few days to a week before removing them.
Fresh air. After a good shower or even when the sun is particularly bright, place your cards outside to soak in the fresh air or cleansing rays. Of course, use common sense and don't leave your cards in windy conditions or anywhere else where they could get damaged.
Fumigation. Light dried sage or rosemary (or use a store-bought incense stick) and simply pass the cards through the smoke several times.
Elemental cleansing. Elemental cleansing requires your awareness of use various techniques, which correspond to each and four elements in the Tarot. For example, for Earth cleansing, use salt; To cleanse with Water, use moon baths or sprinkle a little water on your cards; for Fire cleansing, carry your cards near the candle fire (be careful!); To purify with Air, use fumigation. You can use all four elements together for a more effective cleansing.
Many readers do some form of cleansing after each divination session - this could be as simple as card shuffling or meditation. From time to time, you may want to do a more serious cleansing to really activate your cards. Again, I repeat, choose the method and frequency of procedures that will suit you personally.

The most effective results are obtained by clearing cards using four elements:
- Water. Take a jar or waterproof bag, put the cards in it and place it under running water for half an hour.
- Earth. Without removing the deck from what they were cleansed in, using the element of water, bury it in the ground overnight.
- Fire. Take a church wax candle and hold each card over its flame for a few seconds.
- Air. Each card must be fumigated with incense, after which it should be taken out into the air.
Now the deck should lie all night under the light of the Moon and all the next day under the light of the Sun.
That's it, now you know how to clear the cards. Take them, look at each one carefully, become close to them. After this, you can start fortune telling.
In the future, the purification process is not carried out. More than longer card used for fortune telling, the more accurate their predictions.
How to avoid contaminating cards with foreign energy
However, you should remember a few rules to prevent cards from being contaminated by foreign energy:
- To avoid having to clean the cards again, never give anyone the deck you use to tell fortunes!
- Before fortune telling, be sure to wash your hands, and then hold them over the fire for a while.
- Do not perform any magical rituals on fortune telling cards!
If you feel that the cards are still contaminated with bad energy and they definitely need to be cleaned, it is enough to use cleansing of any of the elements. Cleansing with incense has the gentlest effect on cards. In addition, you can sprinkle them with salt - it will remove the bad.
Magic rituals with cards are very popular. They are strong enough, so they can be used to solve a variety of problems.
Can be used for rituals like special cards Tarot and regular playing cards. But it is important to know how to handle cards correctly.
A deck of cards used in magical rituals must be handled very carefully. Cards must not fall into the hands of other people. It is better to store cards intended for magical rituals in a fabric bag, which you should sew yourself.
Even if you do not plan to perform magical rituals for some time, you need to pick up fortune telling cards as often as possible, thus filling them with your own energy.
To turn ordinary cards into fortune telling
To turn a purchased deck of Tarot cards into a fortune-telling attribute, it is necessary to carry out a special ritual, which must use a spell on the cards. After you purchase a new deck of cards, you should pick them up every day for a month and ask any question regarding tomorrow, and answer immediately. That is, in this way, the cards become accustomed to making predictions. If you carry out such actions every day, then by the end of the month the forecast questions will be very accurate.
After a month, you can perform the final ritual, which will turn the deck of cards into a fortune-telling tool. This ritual is performed on the night from Thursday to Friday.
First, the cards should be laid out in order. This is necessary in order to be able to touch each card during the ceremony.
After this, the following words are spoken quietly but very clearly:
“I, the Servant of God, (proper name) will leave the house after midnight and head north, where I will find a black field. A dead force lives there, strong and mighty. I will stand and bow to her to the damp ground, and ask her for help. I will turn to my grandfathers and great-grandfathers. I will ask the spirits of my relatives to come to my aid in the matter I have planned, to help me. You have been flying over the earth for a long time and keep up with everything, so grant me the ability to magically predict and understand the meanings of cards. I will light a candle in the church for your peace and remember you. My word is strong and indestructible forever. Amen".
After pronouncing the magic words, the cards should be collected one by one and placed under the pillow. This night you will definitely have a prophetic dream.
From this moment on, the deck will be initiated, and you will be able to perform various magical rituals with it. If you are a person with naturally strong energy, then you will feel the energy emanating from the deck of cards.
Ritual of purification of a deck of cards
If you often use a deck of cards for fortune telling, then the cards must be cleaned periodically. This is due to the fact that cards, constantly absorbing alien energy, begin to give unreliable information.
To prevent this from happening, it is necessary to periodically perform a special ritual. The ceremony is carried out in a separate room, in which the table is covered with a red tablecloth.
Three candles are installed on it:
- Two black candles on the sides;
- Red candle between them.
A deck of cards is placed in front of the candles, after which they are lit. Next, you need to take one card at a time from the deck, wipe it with a soft cloth and sprinkle it with salt.
During such actions, the following words are spoken:
“Salt, my natural sister. You taste salty and look strong. So cleanse and speak with your power my magic cards. Let them only tell me the truth and never deceive me. My word is strong! Cursed!
After this procedure is completed, the napkin should be placed on a fireproof tray and lit from the flame of black candles on both sides simultaneously. While the fire is burning, you should turn your face to the east.
Then say the following conspiracy:
"Power of the East! I call you, Servant of God, (proper name) and conjure you! Come and clean up! So that my fortune telling cards are clean like a crystal vessel. So that they are truthful, as soon as I lay them out on the table, they will tell me the whole truth. So be it. Amen".
This cleansing ritual should be performed at least once every three months.
There is a ritual that can immediately before fortune telling enhance the veracity of the cards. To do this, the deck of cards should be placed face down on the palm of your left hand. Then the deck is tossed so that the cards are scattered throughout the room.
After this, you need to slowly collect them one card at a time and constantly whisper the following words:
“I, the Servant of God, (my own name) stand on the maple bridge, and fold not leaf to leaf, but card to card. As soon as I start guessing, the cards will tell me the whole truth. It will only be this way and no other way. Amen".
