Plan Your Cleansing for the Solar New Year: Remove and Cleanse Cures on the 1st February during the next full moon
My favourite way to cleanse my Cures and Enhancers is always under a full moon, and luckily, the next full moon will be on the 1st of February this year, making this an ideal time to cleanse any cures and enhancers that you will be reusing during the year of the Fire Horse.
I would recommend cleaning your existing cures and enhancers that you will be using for 2026 on the 1st of February, and leave them outside or on a windowsill overnight. There will be a two-day overlap with the Flying stars changing, although you can place these out of sight in the area where they will be placed for the year of the Horse, so that they are ready to place on the 4th. Leave any cures in place that you won’t be reusing in 2026 and then remove them on the 3rd or 4th of February.
To cleanse your cures and enhancers, start by removing any physical residue—gently wipe, dust, or rinse water-safe items, then let them fully dry. Where you place them to be in view of the moon will depend on security and weather conditions; if you live in an apartment, try to place them on a balcony or windowsill overnight. If you live in a home and have dry weather, you can leave them outside on a table overnight.
Please be careful when cleansing metal and fabric cures, as water can damage these.
If you aren’t able to cleanse the cures under moonlight, here are some other options:
Wipe metal cures with salt water and fully dry.
Air out items in sunlight (where safe)
Smoke cleanse such as sage, incense or palo santo.
Sound cleanse, such as bells, singing bowl or clapping.
