The One Thing You Must Burn After Someone Passes Away
Losing a loved one is an emotional and spiritual experience. In many cultures, people perform rituals not only to honor the d3ad but also to protect the living. While each tradition has its own customs, there is one thing that many spiritual advisors, healers, and elders quietly agree on—you must burn the deceased’s pillow after their passing.
The pillow is not just a place of rest. It takes in energy—our thoughts, dreams, and even unspoken emotions. It’s where a person lays their head every night, where they cry, worry, and dream. When someone passes away, their energy doesn’t appear instantly. Some think it lingers, especially in personal items like pillows that are full of emotional and spiritual residue.
Spiritual practitioners concern that keeping or reusing the deceased’s pillow can trap lingering energy in your home. In some cases, people have experienced vivid dreams, emotional heaviness, or even a constant sense of “presence” in the room. While these may be harmless, they can also prevent closure and healing.
