You can make your own pendulum by attaching a plumb bob,
a key or a ring onto the end of a length of cord or string or alternatively
buy one of the many long crystal quartz, rounded or pointed at one end that
contains the living energies of the earth. The string is held between the thumb and forefinger and
it should be between 27 cm (9 inches) and 120 cm (40 inches) long, although
to start with the string should be fairly short. If you are dowsing over a chart
or a map then 15 - 20 cm is probably about right. Any excess string can be wrapped
around your index finger. Place your crystal or pendulum in a small plant pot and
cover with earth for one hour. Remove from the pot and run the crystal under
water for one minute to remove any excess soil, then place the crystal into
a bowl of clear spring water into which you have dissolved a few grains of sea
salt and leave for at least four hours. When you're ready to remove it place
on a piece of cotton or silk material and leave in the sunlight to dry. At dusk,
light a pure white candle and pass your pendulum through the flames seven times,
calling upon the four elements, earth, fire, air and water to charge your crystal.
Leave the candle burning in a safe place near to the crystal so that the light
falls onto it and when the candle is burned through place your pendulum into
a dark silk or small black velvet bag until you're ready to use it. People use pendulum dowsing for many things, here
are a few ideas: The easiest method is to hold the end of your string or
chain on which your pendulum hangs and ask a series of questions in your mind
to which you already know the answer. For example you could ask, 'Is my name
. . (whatever your name is) and notice which direction the pendulum swings.
There are five typical movements that the pendulum uses,
these are:
You should notice a consistency of movement as you ask
positive questions and then you can start asking questions to which you know
the answer is no. This will indicate the direction of which future questions
will be answered. Using this method you must phrase the questions in your
mind so that the answer is either yes or no. This may seem to take a little
time initially but you will soon get used to asking the questions in a way that
will provide a faster response. If the pendulum fails to move (which it rarely does), try
it another day. If your loss occurred in the home then draw a simple map
of the rooms in the house (upstairs and downstairs if applicable). Form a clear
mental image of the object that is missing and concentrate on it for a few minutes,
whilst holding your pendulum over the map. Holding it over each room individually
you can ask in your mind if this is where it is located and wait for a yes/no
response. When you have discovered the correct room you can draw another map
of the room with various items of furniture that are contained in it and repeat
the process until you find your object. This should never be done as a substitute for medical advice
from a qualified practitioner but can work well alongside conventional physicians
or homeopathic remedies over a period of time. Begin by asking your pendulum whether it would benefit
you by taking a remedy at the present time. If the answer is no then ask if you need to modify your
diet or take more rest or exercise (remember, one question at a time). If you have any herbal remedies in the house you can hold
your pendulum over each in turn and ask for a positive response from the one
which would be most beneficial. Alternatively draw a grid chart containing the names of
different remedies in each square and hold the pendulum over each one individually
until you get a positive response. Check with your pharmacist or herbalist to make sure that
it is alright for you to take them.
