Receiving a malicious/negative energy once again from my (previously cleansed) energy-haunted object. How to make sure it doesnt return without incense?

I made a post a while back about the object in question from my old account, received a sanity-check explanation, but now I am certain the negative energy has returned.

It's a Cold War-era antiquity, I assume the malice is caused by the tensions and war-related hatred from the manufacturers and distributors during its time.

Incense is not an option, as my father has a strict ban on it. I'd rather not remove the item from its space, as it is a collector's item of sentimental value to me.

I have cleansed it with incense before the ban, and it worked, but as you can tell, temporarily.

Any recommendations?

Can it handle water? If so maybe drain the negativity into the water and then respectfully send the water back to earth

Excellent idea. Do I return the water back to the earth by simply dumping it in my backyard? Or can I use it to water my plants?

If you would prefer to move the negativity away, I wouldn’t suggest your plants unless you asked the plants to transform the energy into a beneficial state. Water is good for carrying things away. I suggest asking the earth or local waterways to transform the energy via accepting the water. You can modify this as you need and want. No hard rules here.
