Finding your Pendulum:
To find a pendulum you resonate with, pick one up with your dominate hand (the one you write with) place it over your non-dominate hand and wait for some movement. The movement can be back and forth or circular. When first starting to use a pendulum the movement may be very small or slow. As you practice and work with it the movement will increase.
Before using a particular pendulum for the first time, hold it in the appropriate position, and ask, either aloud or mentally, "Pendulum, please show me YES". Give the pendulum time to respond and observe the direction of the swing as it responds. If the swing is modest at first, don't be concerned, because it takes a while for a particular pendulum to begin to vibrate with you. After you have determined the YES response, ask the pendulum to show you the NO response in the same manner. Check the YES/NO response in this way, the first few times you do a session with the pendulum. This is necessary because different pendulums can give their YES and NO responses by swinging in different directions. It is a good idea to check the YES/NO response periodically because it can change as you change and grow or if you let other people handle your pendulum.
Uses of A Pendulum:
The pendulum can be used for choosing between alternatives in a relatively wide range of areas. Here are some typical areas where the pendulum can be used to good advantage:
- Making a Choice of any kind. (Do I want to travel for my vacation or stay home?)
- Figuring out what is best to do. (Would it be better to keep my present job or look for a new job?)
- Figuring out how you really feel about something. (Do I want children in the near future?)
- Becoming more conscious of who someone is inside, to know his motivation, his compatibility with you.
- Determining your probability of success in a situation. (Do I have what it takes to complete this course?)
- Finding the cause of physical symptoms. (Is my diet causing my migraines?)
- Determining what foods or vitamins to take. (Would it be good for me to double my Vitamin C intake?)
- Determining what is causing an allergic reaction. phobic reactions (Am I lactose intolerant?)
- Prospecting for water, oil, treasure. (Is there gold over here?)
- Finding missing people or pets, or lost objects. (Is my key under the bed?)
- Determine romantic compatibility.
- Determine reasons for illnesses
- have fun picking lottery numbers, winners at the track
- metaphysical and so on
Starting to Use your Pendulum
Part of the knowledge that comes with experience in working with the pendulum is learning to sometimes start with broad questions, and then narrow them down.
Avoid starting with basic communication. Begin by asking, is my name "_________?" Or, Do I have a sister?" Make sure each question is clearly stated in your mind. As you direct the question to the subconscious, avoid consciously thinking the answer, i.e. let your mind be blank.
Once you are comfortable with your pendulum and feel confident, you are ready to start exploring your subconscious for self truths. You can then begin to use it for finding answers the consciousness does not know.
Receiving Incorrect Responses from your Pendulum:
It is appropriate to ask a pendulum about things that are within your control, about situations where you have the right to make a choice, or about things your subconscious already has access to. Things that can Cause an Incorrect Response from the Pendulum:
-
Poor communication - (Inaccurate phrasing) The most important thing is how you phrase the question. Be specific don’t generalize.
-
Being tired -Forcing the situation. Using the pendulum even though the time or circumstances may not be right.
-
Being off Center - Feeling mentally or emotionally out of balance. You need to be in the right frame of mind.
-
Focusing too heavily on the pendulum itself, and not enough on the information inside you.
-
Being too close to high frequency electrical equipment (operate at least 3 ft from a TV or computer screen).
Connecting to Your Higher Self
You only want to work with your Higher Self. Any of your guides, spirits and angels can go through your Higher Self. Start by speaking to your spirits either aloud of in your head. Use something like this:
Thank your Guides and Spirits for coming to assist you, ask them to surround you in pure white light and allow no negative thoughts or harmful forces to enter.
Hold your Pendulum and ask:
1. Am I working with my Higher Self?
2. Am I grounded, focused, balanced and 100% of sound mind and body?
(If you receive a NO response to either of these questions ask you Higher Self to clear the blocks hindering you.)
3. Ask that your vibrational energy be raised to the highest level (to protect from negative energies.)
Each person subconsciously knows everything that is going on inside his body. This includes not only the physical things that are going on in the body, but also the mental, emotional and spiritual things. The body knows what vitamins it is deficient in, what diseases it has, and why it has those diseases. The body knows whether a product he is holding in his hand is toxic, allergenic, or useful and beneficial. It knows why it feels afraid under certain circumstances, and it knows what it needs to work on in order to grow spiritually. All this subconscious information can be made available to the conscious mind by learning to tune in to it with the aid of the pendulum.
Doing Pendulum Readings for Others:
Until you have had a lot of experience with the pendulum, do NOT try to use it to get information for someone else. So don't do pendulum readings. Instead, make it a personal tool for yourself.
Important Things to Remember:
-
Always keep your sights on the fact that you are the pendulum, that your subconscious mind is really providing the answers, avoid making the tool more important than the consciousness behind it.
-
Keep your pendulum in a safe and special place to help maintain your vibration on, in and through the pendulum.
-
It is better if you don't allow other people to handle your pendulum. You want to keep it as much in tune with your vibration as possible. (If you do let other people handle your pendulum, the worst that can happen is that you may have to re-establish the yes/no response.)
-
The number one reason for inaccurate pendulum reading is vague and faulty wording of the question.
-
The number two reason is your psychological state, the thoughts, emotions, feelings, images, desires, hope, wishes, etc. that vibrate in and through your psyche. These things can influence the answer.
-
The third source of pendulum inaccuracy is lack of patience. Approach the pendulum one day at a time. Watch, wait, see and try again.
Inaccuracy occurs when there is lack of concentration. Practice focusing on the questions until you are able to concentrate and hold your attention steady during the time you are working with your pendulum.
In the beginning there is a tendency to consult the pendulum every time you have to make a decision. At that point the pendulum stops being a tool for cultivating intuitive perception and starts becoming a mental-emotional-spiritual crutch. Do not depend on it to the exclusion of your own common sense.
