One of the simplest and most popular divination tools known to man (and woman) is the humble pendulum. For centuries this simple tool has been used to enlighten us to answers by tapping into our inner selves. We have all probably heard of the ancient ritual of predicting the sex of an unborn child by suspending a gold wedding ring suspended by a chord over the stomach of the expectant mother, well many more answers can be obtained using your pendulum
.
Today’s modern pendulums come in many designs, but always choose one that has a neutral property such as wood, brass or crystal. The chain should be around 20cm and the weight of the pendulum approximately 8 – 20 grams. This isn’t set in stone but is a good starting point, but always use one that feels right even if a little longer/heavier if it works for you.Now you have your pendulum it’s time to get started, so here are the various processes you need to go through for successful divination and getting the most from your new pendulum.
Cleansing Your Pendulum
You need to cleanse your new pendulum before using it and there are several ways to do this, use which method you prefer and feel comfortable with. The most popular way is to place the pendulum in a safe place outdoors, in a safe place where it can not be disturbed. You should place it out on a sunny day, early in the morning and bring it back in when the sun begins to set. An alternative method is to use incense. Sitting in a quiet room without disturbances, light sandalwood of frankincense and hold the pendulum at arms length allowing it swing through the smoke of the incense. Do this by holding it in your dominant hand for three or four passes at a time until the pendulum feels light. You should be able to tell when it is fully cleansed.
CALIBRATE YOUR PENDULUM
Simply put, this means getting the feel for your pendulum and finding out how it reacts to various questions. So, hold your pendulum and allow it to settle and then ask questions that you already know the answer to. Easy questions like “am I a woman” or “do I live in London”. Keep asking a yes question until you get a definite signal from the pendulum, and then do the same for a no answer. Note how the pendulum reacts to these questions and remember these, Your pendulum is then successfully calibrated.Each pendulum and user will be different, but typical responses are
- YES a circular, clockwise motion
- YES to and fro in a vertical motion
- NO a circular, anti-clockwise motion
- NO to and fro in a horizontal motion
Practice with your pendulum until the answers for yes, no, and don’t know are strong and clear.Your pendulum is a great tool, it can be used to find missing items, for finding places on maps, use it when dieting (ask questions like “can I eat this food on my diet”). If using for finding missing object start by asking “is it in this room ” then move around and use as a dowsing tool. The pendulum will start to make sudden changes of movement when over the object.
How to be Successful with your Pendulum
Always cleanse and charge before using and store carefully
Never loan out your pendulum, it will become an extension of your inner mind and will be confused if shared with others
Never use around magnetic fields such as modern electronic components such as TV’s, computers, mobile phones etc and best remove jewellery or other metal objects as they could affect the outcome of the answers

We hope you enjoy using your new pendulum and it should give you years of insight into your inner self and answer questions your conscious self could not..
