Pendulum Practice

 

The use of a pendulum is rather easy and you don’t even need a pendulum, you can also use a heavy charm or a ring on a chain or a string instead, anything works as long as it is heavy enough. The length of the string or chain would be best if about 20 to 30cm long.

There are different ways to use a pendulum, but I guess in the end it’s up to you, what feels right for you. You can hold it in your either right or left hand. Depending if you’re left or right handed, as example I’m right handed and would hold it left, to work it with less consciousness.
The other theory is to use the left hand, since the right brain side deals with the spiritual contact and all the psychic phenomena and the right brain controls your left side. So if you’re right handed and will use the left hand you will have an advantage, since it is your weaker hand and the one controlled by your right brain side. But in the end you have to feel with which way you’re more comfortable.

Many sceptical people will tell you that it’s just your subconsciousness that moves the pendulum and that’s exactly what we want.

To verify which direction is your yes or no or unsure, ask questions that are answered with yes or no, like I would ask 'Is my name Kat?' the answer would be yes. For the no answer I would ask ‘Is my name Angela?’ so the answer would be no, since it is not.
The pendulum can either swing forward/backward and left/right or the other direction would be clockwise/anti-clockwise for yes and no.

When you have verified the directions, you can start with asking the questions you want to have an answer to. Always remember to ask, yes and no questions. Also keep in mind, the pendulum is not a fortune-teller, unless you’re a clairvoyant and need it as instrument, it just mirrors your own feelings.

I usually use this method if I can’t decide where to go on holidays ;) or if I have two job opportunities and don’t know which one to take. Not always, but sometimes it is a little help to make a step into the direction you actually deep down want to.

If you ever want to go deeper into divination with a pendulum, here a little more information about it.

The best way to practice with the pendulum an, your clairvoyance is as follows.

Use 10 playcards, equally mixed black and red. Mix them and put them face down on the table. Now let the pendulum swing over the first card and ask if it is a red card. The pendulum should show you the answer. Don’t be disappointed if you don’t get them all right in the beginning, after a few weeks it should get better and see improvement. You then can start to ask for the suit of the card or even the card itself.

The pendulum can also help you to find lost things, like jewellery, car keys, etc., when you have a little more practice with it. You also can find out the name of your spiritual guide with the pendulum. However, I think the main thing is that you should still see the fun in it.
