Donating your clothes is a helpful and kind thing to do. It supports people who need them and also helps reduce waste. But according to astrology expert Sakshi Singhal, it's not just about giving—how you give is important. Clothing carries energy, and if it is not washed properly, it can pass unwanted energy to the recipient or, in other cases, back to the giver.

The Importance of Cleansing Donated Clothes Before Giving Them Away

When you wear clothes, your body energy or aura stays in them. That energy doesn't just disappear. If you donate your clothes without cleaning them, your energy goes with those clothes. The same thing happens when someone else gives clothes to you. You might start feeling worried or low, especially if the other person was stressed. This is because energy creates an invisible link between people, and some people are sensitive to it.

Best Way to Clean Clothes Before Donating

Wash your items before donating them to ensure their safety. Use water, soap, and salt (pink or ordinary household salt). Salt helps to remove remaining energy and restores the freshness of the clothes. The small process protects both you and the individual receiving the clothes. Also, avoid wearing clothes borrowed from others. But if you must, wash them well before use.

Donating your clothes is a good thing, but doing it with care is preferable. Cleansing removes old energy and promotes tranquility. Always wash clothing before giving it away.
