How Does It Work?
Anyone can use a pendulum: Simply hold one end of the chain between your thumb and first finger so that the stone can swing freely in the air. Try to keep your arm still but relaxed; your higher self will control the fine muscle movements in your arm and fingers to move the pendulum and allow it to "speak" to you. Now ask the pendulum to show you "YES" -- it should begin to swing. Next, ask it to show you "NO" -- it should swing in a different direction. That's it, it's just that simple!
Everyone's pendulum speaks differently to them than it might to someone else. It can swing back and forth, side to side, or in clockwise ore counterclockwise circles. Some use a third direction of spinning for an "unknown" answer if a question is too vague or if an answer cannot be known at the time of asking.
Pendulums and Healing
A pendulum can be used to find energy blocks in a person's body for the purposes of energetic healing. Holding a pendulum over each chakra point one at a time, you can use it to ascertain whether which chakras are spinning too slowly or too quickly.
