I bought a pendulum today
 

I had a dream about one last night so I figured I'd get one. I usually ask yes no questions and it rotates one way for yes and another for no I have a lot of questions. Does anyone use pendulums and if so do you enjoy them and find they are accurate?
Spiritlite.

I do like to use my pendulums a lot. The accuracy rate for me has been around 90%. I think you have to just keep practicing with it and you will get comfortable with using it and know what it will answer and will not. Take mine for instance. It doesn't like finding things or playing games.. but it will answer all day long about spiritual matters. My responses are with swings, forward and backwards for yes, side to side for no. Diagonally to the right is Maybe, or Ready for a question.. Diagonally to the left is asking to clarify a question or that it does not want to answer at that time.

I have found that pendulums have different ways for answering for each user, so its finding out what is comfortable for you.

Enjoy!

Yeah mine seems to do yes no anwers I will have to tell it to include maybe.
I asked several times if my boss would quit within a year and it said YES hahaha.
I also asked if my boss liked me and it said no too bad, like I care haha
I am loving it.

Dear Spiritlite
I have lots of pendulums that I use for different intentions.
If you are asking on spiritual/daily life matters, you should programme yours in a way that is understandable to you.
Every pendulum needs to be programmed. Just google it and find some clues on how to do it. I would say that it is rather a question of intuition more than a strict rules one. But there are some basical steps you should follow.
Do not forget they need cleansing if they are made of crystal. And when you feel they are "carried" somehow with negative energies, clean it - putting it under running water for a minute or two will be enough.
Programme it giving it instructions putting it at the level of your third eye, for example.

Oh if you use it for channeling spirit messages, don't use the same one for other intentions (ex: to survey chakra balance, etc) since they might carry the energy of the spirits. The pendulums used for this intention might need more often cleansing than others.
Love and Blessings :smile:

I used it once and it wasn't accurate for me.
I think it may be if I would tie it to something rather than hold it.

Thanks for all the advice.
This one is silver I got silver because none of the gemstone ones felt right.

Yep that's true LIght Filled, it's very hard work for me to use my pendulum I need a break after a while because it exhausts me.

Spirit, what do you thing accounts for how tired it makes you? Is it not simply tapping into your own higher knowing which then manipulates the pendulem to give your conscious personality self the answers? I guess it's still using energy, just as doing a reading or counseling session is, and I know too much of that can be exhausting too.
