Kinds
In fact, the most important rule for purchasing a pendulum is that the future owner must like it, literally ask to be picked up. We do not recommend purchasing a product if it involves difficulties or a long wait - such a tool is clearly not for you, and the Universe is simply protecting you from an unnecessary purchase.
One of the most popular forms is teardrop-shaped, it was used by medieval practitioners. It is ideal for predictions and dowsing sessions.
Drop pendulum
Devices of an oblong shape, similar to a rectangle, are simple and unpretentious to use; they can be classified as universal tools, like crystal pendulums. When purchasing a spherical tool, you need to be prepared for difficulties in working with the Ouija board and cards: their main purpose is to work on the ground.
The new pendulum needs to be held under running cold water (this will cleanse it of extraneous energies). After water procedures, it must be worn in your breast pocket for several days so that it gets used to the owner’s energy.
Olga Borovskikh will talk in detail about how to choose a pendulum for yourself in the video of her master class:
Metal
Pay attention to copper: it is the metal most susceptible to energy fluctuations.
Metal pendants are one of the most capricious, since they quickly become clogged with energy flows and will have to be cleaned more often. Nevertheless, metal appliances are the most popular type among beginners. These are heavy, but at the same time sensitive pendulums.
Hollow
Among practitioners, it is customary to call the pendulum Merimee - in honor of one of the European abbots. Hollow instruments perform well in search operations on the ground. The element that needs to be found is placed in the hole: gold, water, part of a personal item - this way the search will be much easier.
From stone
If the operator of a dowsing device is a beginner and is not attracted to any of the materials, the choice can be made in favor of opaque quartz - this is a neutral material. The main condition is opacity.
Ivory
The rare material is an excellent energy conductor and subtly reacts to the slightest vibrations.
Made of ceramics
These can be devices made from either natural clay or polymer clay. Natural material will be more susceptible to energy flows, while synthetic material will last longer due to the low penetration of energy into the material.
The main types of pendulums in shape and material can be seen in the collage.
Cleaning and adjusting the pendulum
Any pendulum needs to be adjusted to itself. If the pendulum is from a store, clean it under running water (for about 15 minutes for a metal pendulum) or place it in a container with coarse table salt for a while (about 3 days for a stone pendulum), because it is not known who held it before you, and what kind of this man had thoughts. And even if the thoughts were good, the person was different).
Salt neutralizes any energy very well. Remember that the pendulum needs to be cleaned at least once a month, and preferably after complex issues and long work. The simplest method, which can be used even daily, is to place your pendulum at night on a druse of rock crystal or amethyst.
The sharp corners of the crystals will burn through all the negativity. On your friend, you can clean all the jewelry you wear in the same way. If there is no druse, use ordinary coarse salt and bury the pendulum there for an hour or two; if you keep it there longer, you can remove your entire attunement with the pendulum. Hold your pendulum in your hands so that it tunes in to you. Never give it to anyone. Carry it with you more often, so it will always be in tune with you.
Main rules of creation
You don’t have to buy a pendulum; you can make it yourself, given half an hour of free time and the necessary materials. To begin with, it is better to assemble a simple model, while working with which special preferences will emerge.
The pendulum is assembled in 3 stages:
- Selection of thread or chain : the length can vary from 10 to 30 cm depending on the length of the elbow; first of all, when selecting this parameter, ease of use should be taken into account. It is advisable that the thread be made from natural materials, but you should not use wool.
- Choosing a pendant : the shape and material most suitable for different types of work were described above, but do not forget about the weight of the product. The higher the weight of the load, the less sensitive it is to vibrations, and the less accurate answers it gives. But for a beginner, a load that is too light will be a real punishment. The optimal weight is 10–18 g. The shape can be any, but symmetrical pendulums are preferable.
- Connection of thread and pendant : they must be firmly fastened together to avoid incidents in work. Knots are made on the thread for ease of use: they prevent twisting and make it easier to hold the device in your hand.
Every magical item needs a special place to rest and be stored. For the pendulum, you can sew a sun-proof bag or box. It is best if it is stored alone, without touching anything else.
Instructions: how to make a dowsing pendulum with your own hands
It is not difficult to make a pendulum yourself. To do this, you need to have its components on hand. However, if a person is just getting acquainted with this magical world, then there is no need to spend a lot of time choosing accessories. This activity should be postponed until later, when a person begins to understand pendulums not in theory, but in practice.
First you need to measure the thread. Choose the length that will be comfortable to work with. The length depends on the size of your own hand. On average, 30 centimeters is enough. Natural thread is welcome, but woolen thread will not work. If there are no suitable threads, you can use a chain of any metal.
One end of the thread will be in the hands of the fortuneteller, and a weight is attached to the other. The weight of the weight matters: the greater the weight, the less sensitive the attribute. Nuts that have sizes M6-M10 are excellent. You can also use bolts, rings, needles and paper clips. There are no strict rules in appearance. The main rule is ease of use.
The end of the thread that will be in your hand can be tied into knots. Two to five knots are allowed. They prevent the thread from twisting.
You know how to make a pendulum with your own hands. But such things must have a specially designated storage space. They should be kept in a bag, which can be purchased at the store or sewn at home.
Working with a pendulum for beginners
Before starting to work with a pendulum, you need to get into an almost meditative state: a pleasant emptiness should reign in your head, ideally there should not even be an internal monologue. Distracting noises and outside interference are unacceptable: it is advisable to be alone in the room to work. The operator must be completely immersed in the process. Next, you need to understand the readiness of the device.
The first questions to the pendulum should be elementary and completely specific: the slightest ambiguity is unacceptable. It is best if the operator knows the answer to the question posed, the answer should be clear: only yes or no. Am I indoors? It's snowing outside? Is my name such and such?
If the question is very complex, beginners are advised to break it down into a chain of simple, logically related questions, the answers to which will lead to the final conclusion.
Thanks to a series of simple training questions, the owner’s connection with the pendulum is established, and conclusions are drawn about the possibility of continuing further work. Traditionally, with a positive answer, the device swings parallel to the owner’s body, and with a negative answer, it swings perpendicularly, but for each specific device, its own variations are possible.
It is important to pay attention to the position of the operator’s body and arms: while working, you need to keep your back straight, your legs pressed to the floor. The pendulum is usually held with the right hand (with the exception of left-handers). The elbow of the working hand is on the surface of the table, the thread of the device is firmly clamped between the thumb and forefinger, the tool itself should be at a height of 1.5 cm from the working surface.
The best guide for a novice dowsing pendulum operator is a book on multidimensional medicine by L.G. Puchko “Dowsing for everyone.”
Olga Naydenova, a specialist in the field of dowsing, will demonstrate some techniques for working with a pendulum:
How to choose the right pendulum
A magic pendulum is used to find necessary things or places, to diagnose an illness, and so on. The pendulum plays a special role in fortune telling. A huge number of experts believe that the answers obtained during fortune-telling are already known to a person, but the attribute of the fortune-teller helps in the unconscious choice of an answer.
There is no clear distinction as to which tool is more effective: a hand-held pendulum or one purchased in a specialized store. Both options have strengths and weaknesses. A person makes his choice independently, guided by his own inner convictions. Therefore, if a person decides to purchase an attribute in a store, it is necessary to pay attention to the main thing: the magical attribute should evoke sympathy and a craving for its use.
A certain number of people purchase several types, which are intended for fortune telling and other various purposes. They differ in shape, have different colors, and are made of different materials.
If a person has a desire to purchase a magical instrument, then you should not contact those stores where purchase is available, but you will have to wait for the goods for several weeks. It is necessary to purchase an attribute where it can be touched and after payment is made, the person is immediately given his goods. When choosing an assistant, you must be guided by intuition. You shouldn’t delay your choice or be overly scrupulous about it.
After acquisition, the attribute must be cleaned, since it has been in the hands of a large number of people. There are different options for cleansing. This could be salt, holy water, special prayers or incense smoke.
After cleansing, we can confidently believe that the instrument is now clean and belongs to a single person - its own owner.
Calibration
Essentially, it is a contract between the tool and the operator. The owner fixes in his subconscious the movements of the pendulum with different answers (it can be “yes”, “no”, “I don’t know”). Calibration is carried out before the first work with a new tool.
To simplify the procedure, it is recommended to make a table yourself: draw a circle on a piece of paper and set the motion vectors of the pendulum for different answer options.
Product calibration table
The operator takes the starting position at the table, holding the pendulum in his working hand (between the thumb and forefinger). To begin work, place the tool exactly in the center of the circle at a distance of 1.5–2 cm above the table.
Mentally or out loud, the pendulum must be given a clear setting: “The movement of the pendulum perpendicular to my body will mean “yes””, “The movement of my pendulum parallel to my body will mean “no””.
Next, you should get the tool to strictly fulfill the contract by asking simple questions, the answer to which the operator knows. The next step will be to set the answer: “There is an answer, but it is not available to me” - the pendulum should swing exactly at an angle of 45° relative to the owner’s body.
It’s worth spending at least 1–2 hours setting up the pendulum, only then will the answer scheme be clearly worked out and there will be no annoying inaccuracies in the future.
Having calibrated the tool, you can move on to simple training.
Training
A dowsing pendulum is a delicate tool that will only work correctly in the right hands. In order for the owner and the pendulum to get used to each other’s energies, there are 2 training sessions. During the exercises, you can understand the character of the instrument and find a common language with it.
For the first time working with a pendulum, an exercise with a deck of cards is ideal. It is desirable that they be new, but this is not a necessary condition. 4 cards of different suits, but of the same value, are selected from the deck and placed face up. Then you need to bring the pendulum to each card in turn, carefully observing its movements. Each suit will have a different reaction, its own amplitude of oscillations or diameter of rotation. The movements should either be written down or remembered.
Then the experiment is repeated blindly: a random card is taken from the deck and placed face down, the pendulum brought up will behave in a manner characteristic of a particular suit, so the owner will be able to guess the suits of the cards without looking.
During the second phase of the experiment, do not keep cards that have already been guessed and the entire deck next to the working unit: this may distort the readings. Also, you should not cross your arms and legs, this makes it difficult for the energy to move.
When the pendulum and the owner have been together for some time and have become accustomed to each other, the training can be performed much more difficult. For it you will need opaque jars and various elements: salt, flour, water, soil, sugar, coffee - it can be anything. The more substances used, the more difficult and longer the workout will be.
Further manipulations are carried out according to the same scheme as with cards. First you need to find out how the pendulum reacts to each of the elements, then the jars are closed and shuffled so that the owner does not know the contents. You can guess the substances found in each of them by the vibrations and amplitude of rotation of the pendulum.
Ways to work at a desk
Most practitioners of dowsing pendulum exercises prefer to work from tables, sitting at a table and asking questions that can be answered with a clear “yes” or “no” answer. The method is ideal for searching for missing people, water, treasures, and identifying favorable and dangerous places for life.
In this case, experts resort to using a simple topographic map: it can be either a world map or a map of a specific locality, depending on the purpose. Before starting to work, you need to ask the pendulum a specific question, and then slowly and carefully begin to move it over a flat map surface and observe its behavior.
A pendulum, like a magnet, will attract certain places and repel others. If a specialist works according to the “yes-no” system, you need to stop at each specific point and ask the instrument: “Here?” To which it will react with rotations, answering “yes” or “no” in its standard way.
When working with a pendulum, maintaining impartiality is key.
If the owner of the instrument, asking a question, dreams of a specific answer, with a high degree of probability he will receive exactly it - the pendulum will react this way to the person’s energy message.
If the question on which the operator resorted to using the pendulum is too exciting, it is worth instructing another person to ask questions or doing it with his eyes closed, moving the pendulum around the table blindly.
There are 2 classic schemes: Table 1 will help with questions the answers to which lie in percentages. Level of compatibility with the pendulum, energy level, probability of receiving one or another material resource.
Table 1
Table 2 is more suitable for advanced users, as it is very difficult to read the results and work. But the results that can be obtained with its help are amazing: these include specific names, accurate answers to questions, and even communication with spirits.
table 2
Olga Borovskikh will demonstrate how to work with fan charts:
To compile worksheets, you can use the special computer program Pendulo - with its help you can create maps with any number of sectors and inscriptions that suit you.
An alternative to working at a desk is to place the card on the floor. In this case, the operator stands and holds the pendulum with his arm down, or it can be bent at a right angle. The length of the tool thread should not be less than 30 cm, and it is best to work with heavy pendulums in this way.
From the history of the pendulum
The history of the pendulum also goes back centuries.
It was also used in ancient countries - Mesopotamia, Babylon, Assyria, Urartu, Chaldea, and later in Rome and Greece. Even a story has been preserved, dating back to the 4th century AD. e. It happened that during the time of the Roman Emperor Valens, two Greek magicians were arrested and executed, who wanted to find out with the help of this simple device the name of his successor. They placed a small table made of laurel wood in the room, symbolizing the Delphic tripod, and placed a bowl made of several metals on it.
As historians write, they were dressed in white linen clothes and addressed the gods by tying a gold ring to a thin thread. The ring swung over a bowl, around the edges of which were engraved 24 letters. The ring stopped at some letters, and so, adding up the letters marked with the ring, they received the desired name.
Amianus Marcellinus reports that the ring stopped at the letters T, E, O, D, from which the magicians concluded that the name of the future emperor was Theodore. When Valens found out about fortune telling, he ordered the execution of both the magicians and the “lucky” person named by the pendulum. But here’s what’s curious: Theodosius became the emperor’s heir. The magicians were just a little hasty with their conclusion!
The “Ring of the Nibelungs”, glorified by the German epic, was also a pendulum, with the help of which the gold treasure sunk in the Rhine was found. They, as expected when working with a plumb line, were driven over dark waters until the ring gave a favorable sign.
Almost all natural scientists from Aristotle to the present day were interested in the pendulum. It was immediately adopted by soothsayers, fortune tellers, sorcerers, and magicians of various levels. It is not for nothing that the drawing of a pendulum adorned the first edition of the famous predictions of Nostradamus. And the pendulum was used in many spiritualistic séances.
The pendulum was used in a variety of situations: to search for lost objects, to find out the name of a person or his place of residence, to open treasures, to lay a new road, to find a good place for a home, and to improve health.
Many natural scientists from Aristotle to the present have been interested in the pendulum. The drawing of a pendulum is depicted on the first edition of the famous predictor Nostradamus. The pendulum was used in a variety of situations: to search for treasures, water, lost objects, etc. It is a universal indicator and can answer many questions.
It was used by different segments of the population, from emperors, kings, kings, priests and ending with mining workers, for various purposes. Thus, historical facts are known when the radiesthetic method was used by King Solomon, Catherine II, the father of the Catholic Church reformer Martin Luther, who was a mining worker.
M. Lomonosov, I.-V. were interested in the radiaesthetic phenomenon. Goethe and other outstanding personalities. By the highest order of Catherine II, the symbol of radiesthesia, the vine, was introduced into the coat of arms of the city of Petrozavodsk. At the end of the 19th century, the R-method began to be used for the first time in Germany for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. The best diagnosticians were considered to be doctors who knew the R-method.
But, in essence, both the vine and the plumb line work on the same principle. Only the vine is an indicator with which you need to work on the ground, sitting at the table with it and asking questions is pointless. And the plumb line can be used both indoors and outdoors. This is a universal indicator that allows us to answer many questions.
There are a great many pendulums, or plumb lines. What are they not made of? The ancient Babylonians, for example, selected the shape and material for the plumb line according to the sign under which its owner was born. Thus, plumb lines made of gold and rounded were recommended to be made for people born under the signs of Leo, Aries, and Taurus.
Silver and an elongated plumb line were considered ideal for Cancers and Pisces. Copper – for Gemini, Bec, Taurus, Pisces and Cancer. The shapes of plumb lines can be very different - round, elongated, corkscrew-shaped, star-shaped, flat and spherical, cone-shaped, pyramidal, pear-shaped, cylindrical, ring-shaped - that is, there are no special preferences.
Just note that if you need a pendulum for reading tables and working with letters, it is better that the end of the plumb line be pointed - this makes it easier to understand which letter or column of the table the pendulum points to. If you use a pendulum to work on terrain, then the weight should be heavier so that it does not deviate so easily when walking, and the shape is preferably spherical or cylindrical.
How to ask questions
The art of asking questions is one of the most difficult in communication theory. The ability to correctly pose a question to a pendulum is the key to successful and fruitful work; having mastered it perfectly, the operator can solve extremely complex problems from any area of life. Under no circumstances should you ask a question constructed using the conjunction or: in this case, most likely, the owner of the device will not receive any answer at all.
It doesn’t matter at all whether the operator asks questions out loud or silently: all that is really needed is maximum concentration and the absence of extraneous thoughts in the head. The only thing that should bother the owner of the pendulum at the moment the question is uttered is the question itself.
Question “Will a green or red jacket bring me good luck?” can be divided into 2 parts, first ask: “Will a green jacket bring me luck?”, and then “Will a red jacket bring me luck?”, so the chance of a correct answer will be much higher.
The possibility of a positive answer from the pendulum to both questions at once is not excluded; in this scenario, another manipulation is assumed with the question: “Will I be more successful if I wear a red jacket rather than a green one?”, and then a second question with a change of colors. If the question is really important, it is worth including other color options in the list of questions.
Rules
If you have recently acquired a pendulum, you should not start asking it about too complex things: limit yourself to the everyday sphere and even basic questions to which you know the answer. The main goal of such work is to study the habits of the instrument and tune it.
When posing a burning question to the device, it is necessary to completely abstract from your own emotions about this, otherwise, with a high degree of probability, the pendulum will give out wishful thinking.
For example, you want to ask about the possibility of marriage with a specific person. If you wish with all the strength of your soul that the answer is affirmative, the pendulum will not go against your will, although in fact this may not be true.
Household
Many practitioners sharply ignore simple everyday issues, considering them unworthy of effort, and completely in vain.
Firstly, daily work with a pendulum is an excellent opportunity to develop your abilities and fine-tune the energetic connection between a person and an instrument.
Secondly, it can make life more varied and brighter: a pendulum placed above a movie poster in a newspaper will certainly tell you which film will bring maximum pleasure and whether it is worth going to see it today, thereby relieving the owner of unnecessary doubts and worries.
About future
One of the most controversial categories for working with a pendulum. On the one hand, the pendulum is able to give a fairly complete forecast of upcoming events for you on a number of leading questions. On the other hand, if you are interested in the answers to these questions, they may not be entirely accurate.
Maintaining neutrality is the main virtue when working with a pendulum.
About Me
By asking the instrument questions about himself, the owner of the pendulum is at greatest risk of encountering inaccuracies. It’s all about the device’s operating system: it connects to a person’s subconscious, and in the subconscious live not only facts, but also dreams and desires.
There is a great risk that the device will simply tell what the operator vividly described to himself, fantasizing and thinking about certain events. It is better to entrust such questions to a third party who is not in any way interested in the device’s answers.
About the weather
Having gained a close connection with the pendulum, you can forget about the predictions of meteorologists: you can literally find out whether Thursday will be rainy with a wave of your hand.
Leading specific questions will help expand information about the coming day: “Will it be colder than today? Will there be hail? and so on.
Connection with the subconscious
In essence, a dowsing pendulum is just a transmitter. He is able to take out the answers already stored in the subconscious and transmit them to the central nervous system: it is the subconscious that acts on the muscles of the hand, moving it in the desired direction. The suspension of the device is a catalyst that enhances the ideomotor reaction, which without the device a person simply does not catch, it is so subtle.
Thus, it is not the device that supplies you with information at all - all the answers lie in your own subconscious, but in order to get them out of the hidden depths, you need third-party energetic intervention, a conductor, the role of which is played with great success by a dowsing pendulum.
Impact
Since it is not the tool that controls the person, but the person controls it, the operator is able to influence the pendulum. To verify this postulate, you can organize a simple experiment.
Take a completely stationary pendulum in your hand and dampen its vibrations with your free hand, if necessary. Now mentally give the command to the device to start moving: the order is repeated again and again, a specific direction is set. Surprisingly, within a few seconds the device will begin to behave exactly as it was ordered.
Coue's experiment
Many may know the 20th century French scientist Emile Coue by his famous phrase
“Every day my life is getting better and better”
The famous optimist loved this phrase and repeated it to himself and those around him every day, sometimes several times a day.
The psychologist’s favorite experiment was to test concentration: for this he took a circle with a diameter of 15 cm, drawn into equal sectors by two vectors intersecting in the center, and a dowsing pendulum.
French psychologist Emile Coue
Suspended above the very center of the circle, the pendulum, at the will of the owner, begins to move first along one of the axes. After the oscillations stopped completely, Coue directed his movements along the pattern of the opposite vector.
The experiment certainly received rave reviews from the crowd, and a practitioner with a pendulum today can easily follow the path of the famous psychologist and test his ability to focus on a task.
Chapter 1. Basic stageA pendulum is a small weight attached to a chain, thread or cord. Many people use a wedding ring tied to a string as a pendulum. This is exactly the type of pendulum my mother used. A pendulum made from thread and a paper clip also works well. When I talk about these topics with different groups of people, I often resort to using this homemade pendulum to give everyone present an opportunity to experiment with it.
But you can buy a ready-made pendulum in the store. Their range is currently striking in the variety of shapes and sizes. I already have quite a few pendulums in my house, as my loved ones love to give me these intricately decorated little things for birthdays and Christmas. And they all work great.
However, I would like to add that most of all I use the so-called Merme pendulum (also bought in a store).
Choosing a pendulum
The best pendulum for you will be the one that is easy to use and you like in appearance. Ideally, the pendulum should weigh about 100 g and have a round shape. When you start choosing a pendulum for yourself, you will be surprised at how many different items you can use for this purpose. A lead weight purchased from a hardware store works well. An equally successful solution would be to tie a simple button to a thread. A crystal attached to a chain will be a very good pendulum. Most people prefer to use quartz crystals because they retain natural energy. For the same purpose, you can use a pendant that you usually wear as jewelry. Crystal pendulums are very good for healing and wellness.
Some of the pendulums sold in stores have a hollow space inside. This is done so that you, before starting work, put a small sample of what you intend to find inside the pendulum. If you are looking for water, drop a few drops of water inside this hollow part. Or place a drop of oil there if you are looking for oil, or a grain of gold if the object of your search is gold. Such a hollow space also exists in the Merme pendulum. This is far from being a necessary part of the pendulum in general, but sometimes it can be very useful to you.
Many objects can play the role of a pendulum, but it would be nice to have a special tool for dowsing or magical experiments. In some cases, I had to use car keys, jewelry and other things that could be hung on a thread or chain as a pendulum. Still, I usually try to work with special pendulums, since they are very convenient to use and are designed specifically for this job.
When choosing a pendulum for myself, I take it in my hand and ask: “Is this pendulum in harmony with me?”
— and I only buy it if I get a positive response. How to make your own pendulum
Many people prefer to work with a pendulum that they have made themselves. By creating such a pendulum, you invest part of your own energy into it.
In this case, the choice of material requires special attention. Some people prefer natural materials such as wood or crystal. One woman who attends the same dowsing society as me made herself a very beautiful pendulum from a seashell. You can cut your pendulum from some soft material or adapt for this purpose any object that suits you in shape and weight. Perhaps it will be a float or a spool of thread. Some prefer something unusual and exotic, while others pay attention primarily to the purpose of the item. As a rule, the chosen object either attracts you in some way externally, or has some special meaning for you.
Great care should be taken when choosing a metal pendulum. Metal usually acts as a conductor, and this can negatively affect the results of your research. Copper and aluminum rarely make good pendulums. If possible, try to choose materials that are not conductors, such as wood, glass, plastic.
Ideally, the load should be symmetrical. This creates a good balance and makes the pendulum more responsive and easy to handle. It is best to choose round, spherical or cylindrical pendulums (Fig. 1).
Rice. 1. Types of pendulums: a - classic drop; b - Merme pendulum; c - glass pendulum with a hollow compartment; g - crystal pendulum
Once you have chosen the weight, you need to find something to hang it on. Typically, cotton or silk thread, various cords, ropes and chains are used for this purpose. I have also seen pendulums attached to leather straps, macramé and woven plastic.
Thread, cord and rope are good because they can be easily replaced if necessary. The load must hang freely on the thread, and the thread or cord must in no way interfere with the movements of the pendulum. Tie your weight to the cord and you can start working with the pendulum.
You may want to buy or make a small bag in which to store your pendulum.
This way it is easier to carry with you, and there is less chance that the thread or cord will get tangled. A pendulum protected in this way is less susceptible to negative energies. If you made your own pendulum, you can also make a bag for it. Otherwise, you can easily buy it in the same store that sells pendulums. How to work with a pendulum
It is best to start experimenting with a pendulum alone. Even if your friends share your interest in this issue, the presence of strangers in the very first classes can negatively affect your results. By starting to experiment alone, you will achieve success faster. You will have plenty of time later to demonstrate your abilities to others after you have practiced with the pendulum for a number of weeks and acquired some skill in handling it.
Most people prefer to hold the pendulum in the same hand they write with. Experiment with both hands, but start with your right hand if you are right-handed, and your left if you are left-handed. If you are sitting, place your elbow on the table, and hold the chain or thread of the pendulum between your thumb and forefinger, trying to squeeze it very lightly. Make sure that your stomach or other hand does not inadvertently touch the table. The palm of the hand holding the pendulum should be facing down, and the pendulum itself should hang 30 cm from you.
If you're standing, it's best to bend your elbow at a 90-degree angle so your forearm is parallel to the ground.
Also make sure that your arms and legs do not cross. If you unconsciously protect yourself in this way, you will unwittingly exert a certain influence on the pendulum, thereby reducing its effectiveness.
You can check this fact yourself. Hold the pendulum straight in front of you, allowing it to swing freely. Then cross your legs or press your feet together tightly. And you will see that the pendulum will stop its movement.
Gently swing the pendulum back and forth to get comfortable with this tool. Let it swing in different directions. Intentionally move his movements into a circular motion. You can also experiment with the thread, releasing it at different lengths and watching at what moment the pendulum moves the most freely. For most people, the optimal thread length is 10–12 cm. But it is better for you to determine for yourself what length will be ideal for you. So, one of my friends works with a pendulum only while standing, since the length of the cord to which the weight is attached is about 120 cm (it would be nice if you tied a knot at the place where the length of the thread is most suitable for you).
Once you get used to the movements of the pendulum, stop it with your free hand. After the pendulum freezes in place, ask it to indicate what movement the answer “yes” represents. It makes no difference whether you say your question out loud or mentally. For most people, the pendulum will immediately begin to answer the question asked. But if you've never used a pendulum before, it may take you a while to get the answer you want. Be patient. It may move almost imperceptibly at first, but if you continue to focus on the positive response, the range of motion of your pendulum will gradually increase.
In the end, it doesn't matter whether your first experiment takes 5 seconds, half an hour, or even a week. Once you become accustomed to working with a pendulum, it will begin to move immediately after you hang it over the table. Over the years I have taught many people how to use a pendulum. If they have some difficulty at first, I encourage them to concentrate on the weight and imagine it moving back and forth. And as a rule, the pendulum really begins to swing.
There is another way to help people who have difficulty in the first stages of working with a pendulum. Ask a specialist in this field to place his hand on the beginner’s shoulder (on the right shoulder if the person is holding the pendulum in his right hand).
Thanks to this simple action, the pendulum will immediately begin to move. If there is no one nearby who can help you with this, put the pendulum aside for a few minutes and then try again.
From my own experience I know that anyone can work with a pendulum. So you don't have to worry about how long it will take you to get it moving. To do this, you don’t need to be particularly gifted or a genius. The pendulum will begin to work faster in the hands of someone who has a good imagination and is receptive to new ideas. A person of a logical mind, a methodical person or a pedant will experience much more difficulties in this case. And yet, hard work and a sincere desire to overcome his own mistrust will eventually make him a true professional in working with a pendulum.
Experiment for 5 minutes each time until your pendulum starts to move. And once this happens, know that you will no longer have problems with this.
Your pendulum will move in one of four ways; forward and backward, side to side, or in circles - clockwise and counterclockwise.
Remember what movement indicates the answer “yes”. Then ask the pendulum what will correspond to such values as “no,” “I don’t know,” and “I don’t want to answer.”
Most likely, these answers will remain unchanged. Still, it makes sense to recheck them regularly. I know people who have experienced changes in their pendulum responses. It is best to recheck such conditioned movements after you have not touched your pendulum for some time. If you use it every day, then its answers are unlikely to change. But if you haven't worked with him for a month or two, you will need to find out if his movements have changed to correspond to a particular answer.
Now you are ready to ask your pendulum questions that can be answered in one of the four ways above.
Start with questions to which you already know the answers. You may ask, “Am I a man?” And if so, your pendulum should answer yes. Of course, if you are a woman, the answer is no. You can ask similar questions about your name, age, marital status, number of children, etc.
The purpose of such a survey is to thoroughly study the movements of the pendulum and ensure the validity of its answers. You'll likely find that it makes no difference whether you ask your questions out loud or just think about them. Personally, I only say my questions out loud when I want my client to get the gist of what is happening. One day my friend felt awkward in a bookstore. He brought his pendulum to the book and asked loudly whether he should buy it. And suddenly he felt that all the people around were looking at his pendulum, hoping to find out the answer.
After the pendulum answers questions like these, you can start asking it about what really interests you. The pendulum is able to answer more complex questions, since it can “read” the necessary information from your subconscious, then transmitting it to your consciousness. Consciousness can only accommodate a certain, limited amount of information, while the resources of your subconscious are much greater. The mind can be compared to an iceberg. Consciousness is limited to that small part that is visible above the water, and the much larger part of it, the unconscious, is hidden from view.
Be especially careful with your choice of questions in the beginning. Do not forget that you are able to influence the movements of the pendulum with your own will. Let's say you want to find out the gender of your unborn child. If you secretly hope it will be a girl, the pendulum may reflect your inner desire and tell you that it will be a girl, even if this is not actually the case.
Here's another example: one of my friends asked the pendulum who would win the presidential election in 1996. He himself had been a lifelong Republican, and the pendulum gave him the answer he had been hoping to hear. But the pendulum was wrong (that time Bill Clinton was re-elected) - he reacted to a strong desire to see a Republican in the presidential seat.
Therefore, if you are very interested in the results of a particular event, ask someone you know to ask these questions for you. This will help you maintain the necessary neutrality.
There is a simple way to make sure that we are really able to influence the pendulum with the power of our thoughts. Take the pendulum in your hand and stop its vibrations. Now that he is completely motionless, mentally ask him to swing in a certain direction. After a few seconds, it will actually start moving in the direction you thought it would. Now mentally imagine a different direction, and the pendulum will immediately begin to follow your thoughts, changing its vibrations.
You can influence the pendulum in another way. If you ask him: “Can I be considered God’s gift for women?”, then the pendulum will either answer you honestly (maybe “yes”, maybe “no”), or give an evasive answer (“I don’t know” or “I don’t want to answer”), or he will answer following your inner desire. Keep this in mind when asking questions of the pendulum.
The pendulum is not a toy, and therefore should not be addressed to it with frivolous questions.
If you ask seriously, you will surely get an honest and truthful answer. If you simply play with the pendulum, it will answer you what you want to hear from it. Coue's experiment
French psychologist Emile Coue, who lived in the first half of the 20th century, gained fame thanks to his life-affirming formula: “Every day my life is getting better and better.” These simple words have helped so many people. And when Coue once visited New York, thousands of people greeted him at the port. The French psychologist liked to demonstrate the following experiment to test concentration. First of all, you will need a circle with a diameter of about 15 cm, divided into four parts by two intersecting lines (Fig. 2). Hang the pendulum over the center of the circle and watch it begin to move along one of the two lines. Watch his movements, which will become more and more intense.
Then imagine how the movements of the pendulum gradually slow down and it stops completely, after which it begins to move along another straight line.
Rice. 2. Circle used in Coue's experiment
If you wish, you can repeat this experiment with your eyes closed.
When you open your eyes, you will find that the result will be the same: the pendulum will swing in exactly the direction you imagined. This experiment will not only test your concentration, but will also clearly demonstrate your power over the pendulum.
You can make it move in any direction you want. There is no need to move the pendulum by hand. Your mind is quite capable of handling this task.
Another experiment involves using a pendulum with your eyes closed.
Mentally command him to move clockwise. Wait 15 seconds, then open your eyes. You will find that the pendulum actually moves clockwise.
Stop it and close your eyes again.
This time ask him to move counterclockwise or side to side. And when you open your eyes after some time, you will find that he has followed your mental request, despite the fact that you did nothing to consciously set him in motion. How to ask questions
Many people tend to ask the pendulum questions that it is not able to answer due to quite natural limitations. For example, a pendulum cannot answer your question: “Should I spend my summer vacation in New Orleans or San Francisco?” In this case, you should split the question into two parts and ask about each city in turn.
You could also rephrase your question as follows: “Will I enjoy my vacation if I spend it in New Orleans?” Then ask the same about San Francisco.
It is possible that in both cases you will receive a positive answer. Then you should ask a more specific question: “Will my vacation be more fulfilling if I spend it in New Orleans rather than San Francisco?” No matter what answer you get, it's a good idea to follow up by asking the same question about another city to see what happens.
When holding the pendulum, concentrate on the question. Repeat it to yourself over and over again. If an extraneous thought comes into your head, throw it away and concentrate on the question again. This is necessary because the pendulum can answer a random thought, and not the originally posed question.
The pendulum can bring you considerable benefits when it comes to your work and career. A good way to save time is to ask the pendulum questions that include expressions such as “instead”, “better” or “preferably”, for example; “Should I go back to college and finish my education, or should I continue working and be content with my current salary?” If the pendulum gives a positive answer, you will know what to do. If the answer is no, you can ask another question: “Should I continue working at my corporation instead of going back to college?”
In general, it is better to ask a whole series of simple questions than to formulate one complex one that includes all aspects of the problem that interests you. The time difference will be quite insignificant, but the answer in the first case will be much clearer.
Sometimes the pendulum will convey to you with its movement: “I don’t want to answer.”
If this happens, look at the form in which you asked him your question and see if you could phrase it differently. It is possible that by dividing your initial question into two or three simpler ones, you will eventually achieve the desired answer. Possibilities for using a pendulum
The possibilities of a pendulum are almost limitless. I sometimes like to ask him questions about the earliest days of my childhood. And the pendulum is able to tell me a lot of things that I have long forgotten. By doing this, I found out what my first words were, at what age I took my first steps, and many other things that were interesting to me. If your parents are still alive, you can easily check the accuracy of this information. And over time, when you become convinced of the reliability of the information received, your faith in the capabilities of the pendulum will certainly increase. You can also ask the pendulum other questions that concern you personally: “Am I afraid of being too frank?” or “Am I worthy of the respect of others?” Of course, you need to evaluate each of the answers you receive to such questions. As you already know, your desires can influence the movements of the pendulum. Accordingly, we cannot exclude the possibility that you will not receive a truthful answer, but the one you hope to hear. It is no less interesting to ask the pendulum about your loved ones. Not long ago, my distant relatives decided to spend their vacation in our city. Before they came to visit me, I asked the pendulum a variety of questions, not forgetting to ask about what they like and what they don’t. As a result, my relatives were quite impressed by the fact that when I served them tea at the table, I already knew in advance which of them liked black tea and which preferred to drink it with milk.
A few months ago, a friend of mine was recovering from a long illness. We both went on a short trip, giving his family a chance to get some rest. Before the trip, I used my pendulum to find out what movies he liked to watch and what tourist activities might attract his attention.
If my wife and I are planning to go to the cinema, but we don’t know which movie is worth watching, I also turn to the pendulum for advice. I hang him above the poster in the daily newspaper or ask him questions about each movie.
All these experiments are very simple and unpretentious, but they help make your life more rich and interesting.
And the more often you use the pendulum, the more possibilities for its use you will discover. Questions about the future
Nothing can prevent you from asking the pendulum about your future. But if you start asking it questions about yourself, the pendulum will most likely tell you what you want to hear. This answer can be either correct or incorrect.
Let's say you want to know what the weather will be next Thursday. Ask the pendulum if it will be a sunny day. Once you know this, ask about temperature, wind, etc.
As soon as you learn how to work with a pendulum, your friends will want to find out with your help the outcome of certain events. They will not ignore various competitions and gambling. Based on my own experience, I can say that the pendulum does not like these kinds of questions and prefers not to answer them (or else it will give you incorrect information).
I know a man who used a pendulum to determine the winner of a horse race.
At first everything went well, and he made larger and larger bets. But then the pendulum began to give him incorrect information, and he lost the money he initially earned. Finally he realized what was happening and stopped playing at the races. And in the end he found himself in the same financial situation as before the race. When to Use a Pendulum
There is no “schedule” for using a pendulum. You can contact him at any time when the need arises. I usually carry a pendulum with me, but I may go weeks without using it. And sometimes I turn to him for help up to three times a day.
I know people who ask the pendulum about almost everything that happens in their lives. These people can use the pendulum several times a day. I also know people who set aside time each week to ask the pendulum questions about the next seven days. I prefer to use my pendulum only when the need arises.
So, you can work with your pendulum whenever you want.
Usually people use this tool very often at the beginning of their work with it, but gradually their interest in it wanes, and in the end they turn to it only in extremely important cases. Some people consult the pendulum constantly. It makes no difference how often you use your pendulum. It is just a tool and you can work with it whenever the need arises. How It Works
For at least the last two centuries, people have known that the pendulum is powered by unconscious movements of the hand. Our subconscious influences the muscles of the hand, forcing them to react to received impulses. This is called the “ideomotor reaction” (“ideo” means “idea, thought”, and “motor” means “movement”). The pendulum amplifies the reaction, which would otherwise be almost imperceptible. Consequently, the answers come to us from the depths of our subconscious.
Michel-Eugene Chevreul studied the pendulum for twenty years, and one of his experiments convincingly proves the above. He supported his arm with a wooden block in different places - from the shoulder to the hand. And the closer this block was to the hand, the weaker the pendulum’s oscillations became. They stopped completely when the fingers holding the pendulum rested on a wooden support.
Chevreul also discovered that when he contemplated a pendulum, he entered a trance-like state. This allowed him to conclude that there was a certain connection between his thoughts and the movements of the pendulum. The experiments made a colossal impression and had a huge resonance in society, and even today they often talk about the “Chevreil pendulum”.
The pendulum opens access to our subconscious. We can say that it is an extension of our central nervous system. Consequently, it is not the pendulum that supplies us with information. This information is extracted from our subconscious and enters consciousness through the central nervous system. The pendulum “manifests” these messages from our subconscious.
You can often hear the following criticism of the pendulum: if we are able to influence this instrument with our consciousness, then the information obtained with its help must be extremely dubious. In reality, something completely different happens. The pendulum allows us to come into contact with our subconscious whenever we wish.
The subconscious of every person is connected with the cosmic consciousness, to which any information is available. This is why we sometimes go to bed with an unsolved problem and wake up in the morning with a ready-made solution. While we were sleeping, our subconscious became active and turned to the cosmic consciousness for help, and in the morning it gave us the correct answer.
Consequently, we can ask the pendulum any question and we will receive an answer from the “database” of cosmic consciousness.
The best results are obtained when we really need an answer. It is not at all necessary that your questions relate to life and death, but they should touch upon subjects that are absolutely important to you.
You can hone your abilities by sometimes conducting not too serious experiments with the pendulum.
Still, you'll probably have more success finding lost car keys than trying to figure out which of the seven coins your friend touched. The pendulum will give you the answer to both questions, but will be more willing to provide information in serious cases. The Art of the Pendulum
The pendulum is deceptively easy to use. But if you want to become a real professional, you need to practice a lot. You will inevitably make mistakes at first, but as your skills improve, they will become fewer and fewer.
You can achieve great success if you follow these simple rules,
1. Never use a pendulum unless absolutely necessary. If you can make the decision yourself, do it.
2. Don't ask the same question twice during a lesson. This gives rise to doubts. You must trust the answers that the pendulum gives you.
3. Never boast about your skills in handling a pendulum.
4. Ask someone else to work with the pendulum if you are emotionally interested in the answer.
5. Use the pendulum only for good purposes.
Don't let other people use your pendulum. He is tuned exclusively to you, so you should not allow other people's energy to mix with yours. I have several pendulums that I allow other people to use, but there are also those that only I touch. Store your pendulum in your purse or pouch, keep it close to you. This will help you protect it from dangerous influences.
By doing this, you will successfully master the art of working with a pendulum. You will soon find that using a pendulum makes you more perceptive, insightful and confident. In accordance with this, your ability to handle the pendulum will increase.
The possibilities of a pendulum are truly endless. If you handle it wisely, you will achieve real success in various areas of your life.

Schedule for work
For any procedure with energy flows or with the subconscious, there are favorable and unfavorable times: the readings of the pendulum will be more accurate at some hours and may be depressingly inaccurate at others. In fact, there are no clear rules in choosing the time and day of work, but based on the experience of operators actively practicing with the pendulum, hours and days were noted when work would bring more benefit and pleasure and vice versa.
Working with a dowsing pendulum is not fortune telling, it does not involve appealing to otherworldly forces, so the device can be safely used both on major religious holidays and during Lent.
Prosperous and unfavorable hours
Prosperous hours:
- 10–12 noon;
- 16–17 pm;
- 00–01 am.
Unfavorable hours:
- 18–19 pm;
- 22–23 o'clock in the morning.
Prosperous and unfavorable lunar days
Favorable lunar days: 8, 11, 14, 16, 21, 25.
Unfavorable days: 3, 5, 12, 13, 29.
Cleansing
After you have made a divination attribute, it must be cleaned. You can do this using running water. Any body of water where the water does not stagnate will do.
You need to place the attribute there for several hours, and the negative energy will leave it. If this is not possible, then you should do this at home by placing the pendulum in the sink and turning on the water so that it constantly flows, thus purifying the magical attribute.
What not to do at work
There is a strict system of taboos: if these rules are violated, not only incorrect readings of the device are possible, but also its complete failure.
If there is an urgent need for a forecast, it is more correct to use a percentage map and formulate the question to the pendulum as follows: “What is the percentage probability of a certain outcome of events, based on existing circumstances?”
When working with a pendulum, it is strictly forbidden to:
- Trying to guess the future: firstly, the pendulum will not show 100% of the result, and secondly, there is a danger of self-programming. Having recorded the readings of the device, a person gradually begins to behave in such a way that what is predicted comes true, and predictions are not always positive.
- Work with a pendulum while in extremely emotional states. Whether these feelings are positive or negative, they will interfere with the accuracy of the readings.
- Ask the same questions over and over again, pulling from the pendulum the solution the operator needs to the question. Most likely, after a certain attempt, the device will catch the desired solution and point to it, simply by lying.
- Hurry. The pendulum needs to tune in; it will give the answer itself when it is ready.
- Trying to solve complex problems without enough experience: a beginner cannot diagnose a patient and identify diseases. You need to start small; simple household tasks are good for this.
- Turn to the pendulum too often and for minor issues. It’s better to ask a mirror or a friend about what dress you should wear on a date. The pendulum will be useful for solving more important problems. Operators should remember that this is not a magic wand, and it is still not worth uncovering the pendulum and cards every time unless absolutely necessary.
- Discussing patients' problems with other people: this is rather an ethical issue. Like any doctor, the operator of a dowsing pendulum soon after starting his practice is faced with a large flow of personal information from strangers. You should not share it with acquaintances and friends.
- Do not use your skills: having acquired the abilities and skills to work with a pendulum, you need to use them.
- Use someone else’s pendulum or give your own to other people to work with: a pendulum is a thin device that tunes to its owner and stores part of his energy. Before transferring the pendulum to the new owner, it is cleaned of any remaining energy.
Evgeniy Green will tell you about incorrect work with a pendulum for dowsing:
A novice dowsing pendulum operator must remember that this is just a tool that is an intermediary between human energy and the universe. If the work is not going well, the problem is not always in the device: you should look deep into yourself.

The connection between fortune telling using a pendulum and numerology
The pendulum is a very sensitive magical instrument; be sure to control your emotions when working with it.
Second: choose a day on the waxing Moon, and the date should be even or odd, depending on what day you were born. For example, your date of birth is the third, fifth, seventh, ninth of any month, which means that to make or buy a pendulum, choose an odd day on the waxing Moon.
If you decide to make a pendulum yourself, buy, following the rules described above, a thread and an object that will act as a pendulum. Connect the thread and pendant on the same day immediately after sunset. Don't forget to light a regular wax candle. Let it burn to the end. The cinder should burn completely and go out without your help.
The correspondence between numbers and letters to determine additional personality characteristics is as follows. Write these pairs: A – 1; B – 2; AT 6; G – 3; D – 4; E – 5; F – 2; W – 7; I – 1; J – 1; K – 2; L – 2; M – 4; N – 5; O – 7; P – 8; R – 2; C – 3; T – 4; U – 6; F – 8; X – 5; C – 3; H – 7; Ш – 2; Ш – 9; Y – 1; b – 1; E – 6; Yu – 7; I am 2.
Write down your last name, first name and patronymic in a row. Be sure to indicate your full name, and not what your friends and acquaintances usually call you. That is, we write, not Vika, but Victoria, not Vanyusha, but Ivan. Under each letter below, write the corresponding number. Then add up all the numbers. The resulting amount is clearly a multi-digit number.
The number that the pendulum points to and the number of your name will reveal your individual characteristics
For example, you received 453. We reduce the number to one digit by addition: 4 5 3 = 12. 1 2=3. Your number is three. Pay special attention to your name. What number does it correspond to? For example - Victoria: 6 1 2 4 7 2 1 2=25. 2 5=7. That is, the pure number of the name is seven. Consider both. The first number will reveal the characteristics of your character, determine the general line of your destiny, indicate the strengths and weaknesses of your personality and in which areas you are most likely to achieve success. It makes sense to calculate the pure number of the name - it will reveal the traits inherent in you, reveal your individuality.
You can check the name number obtained using numerology for compliance with the personality number that you calculated using your new magical tool - the pendulum. If these two numbers coincide, it is believed that you are “marked” by Fortune and your character strengths can be developed even more, which ultimately will allow you to fully open up and realize yourself.
You now know how to work with a pendulum. And a few more important notes when using it. After the fortune telling session, place the pendulum in the same place in a specially sewn or purchased bag (preferably made of natural red fabric). During the preparatory period of 21 days, it is advisable to keep the pendulum under the pillow or at least close to the place where you sleep.
