Help! I bought an antique locket—Did I inherit some baggage?
Quote from hamricktsj on 2025-10-09, 2:29 PMI was in an antique shop and fell in love with a beautiful old silver locket. I’ve worn it for two days, and I feel really moody and sad, which is totally unlike me. Does wearing an old object mean I automatically absorb the previous owner's energy? What’s the easiest way to cleanse it without ruining the silver? I’m scared to sleep with it on.

To cleanse silver without damage, do NOT use salt water (it will corrode the metal). Instead, place the locket in a bowl of dry brown rice for 24-48 hours—the rice absorbs the energy. Then, give it a quick smoke bath with incense and program it with a simple protection intent. If the bad mood stops, you're good!
