Everyday Life

Does an antique’s energy necessarily strengthen with age or fade?

Not necessarily. In my understanding of faith, energy can grow and also fade. If an object is left alone without a continuing connection to it, its energy may gradually weaken. But if the original owner still has a very strong attachment, that connection may also continue for a long time.

So both possibilities need to be considered: an old object handled by many people may have accumulated considerable energy, while energy may also fade after a long time. We need to understand what the object has been through, where it came from and whether the original owner is still unable to let go. Age alone cannot establish that its energy must be stronger or that it can no longer have any influence.

When discussing burial goods, someone imagined a large tomb with many objects and asked what would happen if only one were taken. My answer still depended on the other party’s attachment. If the attachment is not particularly strong, there may be little effect. But if it is something the person loved during life and used close to the body, the energetic connection may be stronger. The key remains the relationship between that object and its original owner.
