Dowsing or divining with a pendulum - a beginners guide

Dowsing, or divination with a pendulum is a skill we all have (I believe). It is not witchcraft, as
some will tell you but a natural talent that has been used for thousands of years. Dowsing is
about amplifying small movements in the body to access information it knows or your higher
self knows. Dowsing can be used to determine the best foods to eat & things to avoid.
Dowsing can be used to access information from the world around us - past, present and, to
a limited extent, the future. This is an introduction to dowsing and an encouragement to try
for yourself. It is not intended proof for the skeptics.

I've always been taught to keep the pendulum completely still, and NEVER hold the pendulum with your thumb. your thumb has a pulse, and it will affect your pendulum...

Hi. There are plenty of different schools of thoughts on dowsing . I was taught this way and it works fine for me but I would encourage people to experiment and trust their instincts.

[lifeenergysolutions]

You can often get better results by using heavier pendulums. It is very much a personal thing. I get clearer results using brass or heavy crystal but many people use lighter wooden pendulums. Experiment, is all I can say.

Can you say more on reverse polarity.

I always have the polarity changed after the first question.(even though I calibrate yes and no)

I do not move ,not even my eyes.

Someone told me that every 17 minutes there is a change in polarity due to the change in breath - in the nostril.

I am a professional dowser except for the reversal trouble.

THANKS

Hi Reuben. You are outside my experience zone with this one. I often am reversed when I feel out of sorts but it certainly doesn't change every 17minutes and I have never heard of this (I am a member of the local dowsing society so I mix with dowsers every month). Good luck on finding the answer to this one!

[lifeenergysolutions]

You are welcome. Keep practicing! I find I am better at dowsing some things than others. Remember to ask the question whether you have access to the information. There is also a bit of a trick in getting into the zone where you are completely dispassionate about the answer. This is because wishful thinking can overwhelm the dowsing skill! Best of luck!

@LemonsThatArePurple It works better with my left (dominant) hand. I can get it to work with my right hand but not as much.

[LemonsThatArePurple]

@LemonsThatArePurple And I tested this by asking myself easy questions with a pendulum and then just saying the words yes and no and I got the pendulum to move correspondingly.

I never really thought of this as amplifying your movements before. I can get it to swing in whatever direction from a stand still with no visible movement from my arm probably because I draw and play guitar alot which requires fine motors skills. I think this kind of shows that most spirituality springs from our subconscious/collective unconscious.
