I have some questions if none of you mind.

1. Can you use a pendulum for dowsing areas- out of doors, the land, indoors, etc?
2. Do you have to ask the pendulum questions? I plan on more or less using the pendulum in a way where I do not ask questions, or use a chart, but rather to get a sense of what is around, how the pendulum behaves, simply experimentation, and getting a feel for using it. Is this okay?

3. This is not a question, but a statement. I have no plans to use any type of chart. I am also reserved about yes or no questions.

I have a little bit of fear going in just to use it as I intend- watching the behavior- getting used to it, due to realizing others have had bad or scary experiences with the use of a pendulum.

4. Is it alright to use something lighter for a pendulum, and something handmade?

That is a photo of the pendulum I made. Any input? Do you guys think the materials are suitable, does any one else use glass for a pendulum, and do you have experiences with the usage of glass pendulums?

I think that is it for my questions. Haha, didn't realize I had that many.

Any advice or suggestions welcome.

Thank you.

Hi SaturninePluto

I have some experience with dowsing so maybe I can help answer your questions.

Your first question. If you're dowsing outside, etc I'm assuming you're looking for something like ley lines, water, minerals, etc. I dowsed for ley lines but I used rods for that purpose. For finding water and minerals my cousin uses a large thick branch to locate them.

2) When I use pendulums, it's because I have questions. I don't use them for anything else. I read you need charts for pendulums if you're using them to locate objects.

3) Dowsing works best when you're not fearful as that tends to block the energy flow in your body which is used for dowsing. I haven't had any scary situations with dowsing. The only bad part I experience is when my pendulums sulk from not being used.

4) When I was a kid, I played with a necklace and a pendant. I'd undo the clasp so the chain was a single strand and the pendant would hang on one end of the chain so it wouldn't slide off and presto! A homemade pendulum. I'd hold the chain and think of circles, back and forth movements and even stop. At the time, I didn't know about dowsing but had fun making it move as directed by my thoughts.

Now that I'm much older, I use crystal pendulums even though I have glass ornaments that can be used as pendulums. The difference is, crystals have a higher accuracy rate compared to glass. I also have a Swarvski crystal tear drop ornament that I've used as a pendulum. It's accuracy rate is way too high for my liking. That crystal was far too picky on the words I used in my questions. I had to deal with semantics on that one, lol.

The happy medium are the crystal ones as they're not really picky about the words I use and I get a pretty good accuracy rate from them.

Before each session, I calibrate a pendulum with the following statetments:
please show me yes, please show me no, please show me maybe, please show me to rephrase my question. After that, I then ask, "Is this a good time to dowse?" If the answer is no, here's where a pendulum might be picky about words then I'd rephrase the question to, "Is this better than a good time to dowse?" If the answer is yes, that should alert you to be aware of the words you use. If the answer is no, more questions might help you figure out why. When I finish a session, I thank the pendulum.

Your pendulum looks like it's used for finding things and I haven't tried that type of a pendulum.

I hope that helped and have fun while you dowse.
