Guest guest Posted January 17, 2009 Report Share Posted January 17, 2009 anilsaiba <suryauditprasad Sat, 17 Jan 2009 5:16 am [CrystalHW] crystal dowsing-help! I know lot of people have been giving me advice... I've read all of it. But I can't think what is preventing me from working a pendulum? Greetings Anjani, I think I may have an answer for you. To me it does not sound like you are defining " yes " and " no " yet with YOUR pendulum. The very first thing you need to do when you start actually working with ANY pendulum (after the cleansing, intent aspect that is), is to actually ask the pendulum to show you it's yes, it's no and it's unclear/maybe. So say to the pendulum " Show me your yes " , " Show me your no " , " Show me your unclear " . Make these statements firmly but politely and in a confident voice. When it demonstrates how it will swing, thank it and then move on to the next step (see below). Not every pendulum will swing in a circle to denote yes. Some of my pendulums swing front to back (to me and away from me) for no and then side to side for yes but not all will do it that way. I think I am an odd person in this next respect because I actually hold my pendulum at face level and speak directly to the pendulum (as if? looking it in the eyes) when I inquire as to the yes/no/unclear swing. I also will leave the pendulum at eye level for any yes/no questions. I grew up being taught to make eye contact when speaking to someone, so I show that same respect to my pendulums ... lol .... Like I said, I am just probably odd that way. Then the first actual question you should ask the pendulum is " Are you in the mood to give answers right now? " or " Are you ready to do some dowsing work? " This is being considerate of the pendulum and it's gifts. Blessings to your afternoon all.

Also Not everyone can work with pendulums and even those who are really adept have times when it just does not happen. I might ask what it is you want to do with pendulum work? My pendulums get cranky when I am just playing around but work well when I have a need to know situation though not when I have started to become over dependent on pendulums. Perhaps energy testing or some other method will be better suited to your nature and purpose . Whatever method you are working with there is a kind of relaxed receptivity that promotes success . When things are just not working after repeated tried it can be a good idea to take a break for a while.

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 Thank you Peggy and ReNau. I did ask the pendulums if they wanted to dowse for me, I also asked them to show me yes and no. But they would swing the same way. I tried yesterday night again, incase the day before wasn't a good time. However this time I found that the first question I posed 'will you dowse for me?' The pendulum stopped swinging and stuck to the centre. This is what happened for the first time. Then when I pushed the matter it didn't even give me a different swing for yes and no. So I take it that the pendulums I have tried aren't right, or the time isn't right, or I'm not to do any work on it. Peggy, I am serious about the dowsing, I've got serious questions I want to ask, but I just can't get it to give me yes no swings. When I first was introduced to dowsing it was in my reiki class, we were asked to see if the chakras were open. When I told the teacher I could feel a magnetic pull she said I don't need a pendulum and we tried it without. When I felt it pull, I could tell it was open. However when I was unsure -so that could be that they were half open or closed. Even yesterday, when the pendulum stood still refusing to answer, I could feel a pull. Have you heard of dowsing where magnetic pull means yes and no pulling means no? What else can I try... I want to be able to dowse?

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 Hi all, Several folks have suggested asking the pendy to show them it's motions for yes, no and maybe answers. I was taught a different method. The old hill-billy that showed/taught me to dowse with sticks and pendys had me clear the pendulum and then with a hand drawn chart under my pendulum, had me show the pendulum what motions I expected the pendulum to make for each separate answer. His thoughts were to 'teach' the pendulum rather than ask what it preferred. This would stand to reason in a lot of pendulum work, if as some say, we already have the answers we seek and are using the pendulum to bring the answers out of our subconscious where we can easily access them. Pendulum dowsing for water/minerals works differently, as does dowsing for something tangible that has gone missing. As Peggy wrote, you may also be trying too hard. I found that the best time for my partner to use a pendy is after a Reiki treatment or meditation session when she's very relaxed. No other time seems to work for her and she used to try so hard and get so disappointed when the answers just wouldn't come. Then one day after a Reiki session, she absently picked up one of her pendys and asked it a question. It answered her quite nicely and since then the relaxation is always a prelude to her pendy work. Stay warm and dry... tomas , rosequartz <rosequartz wrote: > > anilsaiba wrote: > > You may just be trying too hard rather than allowing things to happen.

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 The pendulum knows that you don't need it's help since you already have the answer. When your gift is as great as the information as the pendulum you make it feel " unworthy " and insulted without meaning to do so. It doesn't want to do that type of work. I had and still have the same excitement for the pendulum as when I first started. They did the same thing to me and would play with their answers. I even had different pendulums for different things. I still do. This also may not be a no for you. IF you are working on others and asking about the charka's, it may be that you are not suppose to work on that chakra for that person. Example from my pendulum Reiki Master teacher. She worked on a lady for two years and never was allowed by the higher self of the person to work on the base chakra. Then one day the client told her how she was sexually abused as a child and the same day she was able to work on the base chakra. It maybe something that the person is not ready to deal with themselves, that you aren't aware of. First, I had one pendulum that had an entity in it so it had to be removed. Then second I had a prankster spirit in my house - got rid of that. Now I had to show command and that I was serious about my work with my questions. So I cleaned them all, I mean every stone, pendulum, crystal I had. Ready to sit out at the full moon for energy - then what happens - it rains for 4 days. So I stuck them all on their plates in an empty drawer to sit and wait until they could be energized. (I have found that pendulums don't like the isolation nor the dark really.) I went on about my life and forgot about them. The next full moon - it rained again - the next full moon it rained again. Then a few weeks ago I took them out and put them out in the sun (haven't seen to much of that in the last few months either) and left them for 24 hours. (Ironically my disabled child seems to resinate with my stones, since after dark she kept telling me they were cold and lonely and wanted to come inside.) Talk about shinning and beautiful and obeying and working and being full of energy! Wow what a difference. Maybe you need to clean them and put them away for them to be able to " Mind " you. They are wanting to be boss from what you are saying. Maybe you are also as they say " trying to hard " since you want it so bad.. let go... and let it come naturally. Also try using a chart with letters and have your pendulum spell out it's problem. The second chart on this site is the one I use - It is really good for a beginner as you will see the pendulum will use the bottom half and say more information etc. http://cocreationsunlimited.com/truth/tr_images/dowsing_chart2.gif I have to go to a meeting but I will try to send to you what someone gave to me before I start working with a pendulum and maybe that will assist you as well.
