If you’re new to pendulums and want to learn how to use one you’ve come to the right place. In this article I talk about the interesting world of pendulum dowsing and give you all the information you need to get started.
Are you interested in the mysterious nature of pendulums and how they can reveal secret information?
A pendulum is an old tool that can help you connect with your instincts and subconscious mind. Being able to use it can be helpful when you need help finding answers or want to grow on your spiritual journey. But how do you start?
About how pendulums work and what they are.
Different things, like crystal, metal, or wood, can be used to make a pendulum. If you hold the pendulum properly by its ring or holder, it can connect your conscious mind to your subconscious mind, letting you access information that you might not normally be able to see.
The way a pendulum works is based on the movement of very small muscles. You can’t see these tiny shifts with the naked eye, but the pendulum can pick them up. If you hold the pendulum still and ask it questions, you can see the small changes that happen that mean your inner mind has something to say. The pendulum connects your aware mind to your subconscious mind, giving you a way to get more information and knowledge. It can help you see things more clearly, make choices, and connect with your instincts more easily.
It’s important to pick the right pendulum for your pendulum dowsing trip. Whichever type of pendulum you pick should feel good in your hand and make you feel good. When choosing a pendulum, you should think about its material, form, and energy alignment, among other things.
One object that is often used to make pendulums is crystal. Because each crystal has its own vibe and energy, it’s important to pick one that fits with your goals. Clear quartz, amethyst, and rose quartz are all common crystals for pendulums.
The form of the pendulum can also change its energy, along with its material. There are pendulums that are spherical, teardrop-shaped, and those that are made like cones. Try out different forms to find the one that speaks to you the most.
Lastly, it’s important to think about how the pendulum’s energy is aligned. Pick a pendulum that feels good to you because they all have their own energy identity. Follow your gut when choosing a pendulum because it will lead you to the right one.
How to get your pendulum ready to use
It’s important to find a comfy place to sit for your practice before you use your pendulum. Choose a place that is calm and quiet so that you can concentrate. To clear the energy of the area, you could also smudge it with sage or use crystals.
Next, clear your pendulum of any leftover forces before you start dowsing. This makes sure that you have accurate readings and a clean slate at the start of each exercise. You can clear your pendulum in a number of ways, such as by smudging it, cleaning it with sound, or putting it in the sun or moonlight.
Once your pendulum is clean, use your stronger hand to hold the pendulum. This will let the pendulum hang easily. Place the string or chain between your thumb and index finger. Let go of the muscles in your arms and shoulders and let the pendulum move on its own.
To calm down and clear your mind, take a few deep breaths. You should be relaxed and open-minded when you do pendulum dowsing.
Forget about what you think should happen and trust that the pendulum will lead you to the answers you’re looking for.
Bonding with your pendulum
It’s time to put your energy and purpose into it. Imagine that the pendulum is full of your good energy and thoughts as you hold it in your hand. It’s also possible to say your desire out loud or in your mind.
Building a strong bond between you and your pendulum gets easier when you use it often. It lines up the pendulum with your unique energy signature, which makes it more accurate and reliable when you’re dowsing. Remember to set up your pendulum again before each lesson or whenever you feel the need to connect with its energy again.
Figuring out how and why pendulums move
Once you’ve picked out and cleansed your pendulum, it’s important to learn about the different ways it can move and what those movements mean. The way the pendulum swings can show different answers, like “yes,” “no,” “maybe,” or “unclear.” If you understand these movements, you’ll be able to correctly interpret the replies.
Simple exercises with pendulums for newbies
There are some simple pendulum exercises for beginners that you can do to better understand your pendulum’s answers. These tasks will help you get used to how the pendulum moves and boost your confidence in your dowsing skills.
To figure out what your pendulum’s movements mean, start by asking yourself easy questions that you already know the answers to. Ask something like, “Is my name [your name]?” and watch the pendulum swing back and forth. Watch how the pendulum moves and write down the way it swings or turns. This activity will improve your ability to connect with the pendulum and understand what it means.
You can also ask it to show you a “Yes” and show you a “No”. This then becomes your “signature”.
Back and forth, side to side, circular, and diagonal moves are all common. It’s important to remember, though, that these groups can mean different things to different people. It’s very important to find your own unique set of movement meanings by watching and practicing.
A pendulum chart is used in another task. If you want to see how different choices or possibilities might look, you can use a pendulum chart. You can use it to learn more about your health, your relationships, or your job, among other things. Ask the pendulum to show you the best choice or the answer to a certain question by holding it over the chart.
More advanced pendulum methods and uses
After you get good at the basic exercises, you can move on to more difficult pendulum exercises and uses. You can go deeper into your subconscious mind and get information and help from higher levels when you use these methods.
Energy healing with a pendulum is a more advanced method. You can help the body heal and restore energetic balance by using the pendulum to find energy imbalances or blocks. Watch the pendulum move as you hold it over different parts of your body. Unusual or disorganized moves are a sign of an imbalance.
Exploring past lives is another more advanced use of pendulum dowsing.
You can use the pendulum to learn about your past lives and understand the lessons and patterns of your present life. You can find out about secret information and get a better sense of your soul’s journey by asking specific questions about past lives.
