Let's move into the good stuff!! How to use your pendulum.
Now that your pendulum is properly cleansed, we will now cleanse our mind and settle discomfort from our bodies, to allow our spirit to connect to our universal source energy.
Quick review:
In our previous lesson it was mentioned that a pendulum is a tool that is used to help you connect to your higher self and your ‘Universal source’ by asking questions to help guide, clarify, and raise your awareness. However a pendulum can only answer “yes” or “no” questions about YOUR OWN personal situations, so make sure to phrase questions in a way that can allow you to get a clear answer for yourself and not anyone else.
Be a clear channel ; Prepare your mind, body and energy: Take a moment to quiet your mind. Take a few deep cleansing breaths to clear your mind and ease tension from your body. Once you feel at ease you can begin to set your pendulum.
1) Holding the pendulum in your dominant hand with the chain or top link between your thumb and index finger. You may choice to hold your pendulum above any flat unobstructed surface or even over a clear quartz crystal .
2) Hold your hand steady than ask the pendulum to ‘show me a yes answer’ or ‘what does yes look like?' Wait to see if the pendulum swings from right to left or in a circular motion. The pendulum will either swing vertically, horizontally, or in a circular motion.
Take note as to what your YES answer looks like—for instance, if it went up and down vertically when you said ‘show me yes,’ that is how it will respond in an affirmative way to your question.
when you acknowledge the pattern you can then ask the pendulum to 'please stop.'
3) Hold your hand steady than ask the pendulum to ‘show me a no answer’ or ‘what does no look like?' Wait to see if the pendulum swings from right to left or in a circular motion. The pendulum will either swing vertically, horizontally, or in a circular motion.
Take note as to what your NO answer looks like—for instance, if it went up and down vertically when you said ‘show me no,’ that is how it will respond in an affirmative way to your question.
when you acknowledge the pattern you can then ask the pendulum to 'please stop.'
Now Test your pendulum; start with what you already know!
1) To test the pendulums accuracy via its swing, ask questions that you already know the answer to. “For example, ask " Is my birthday (insert the wrong date) February 12th '” see what directional swing your pendulum provides for you. It should be the same directional that showed up for 'no' when you initially set it.
2) Now ask the pendulum the same birthday question. " Is my birthday (insert the correct date) September 14th” see what directional swing your pendulum provides for you for this directional result. It should be the same directional that showed up for 'yes' when you initially set it.
This simple test exercise will help you connect with the pendulum and get to know its directional swings and how it will communicate with you.”
Prep your actual questions:
When looking for clarity or guidance around a situation, have more than one question prepared about the topic to help you gain as much insight as possible and as much guidance.
However, the pendulum might not always work. Sometimes a pendulum will not want to answer or not be open to answering a particular question at that time,”
It's important to note that a pendulum will sometimes vibrate in a shaky out of control like manner based upon your confidence in the pendulum’s capability. This may also show up the pendulum remaining still. Feel free to try again and have confidence in your pendulum’s response to your higher energetic self and your pendulum will not let you down. If really feeling off its best to consult your pendulum after a little time has passed or on another day when you are energetically feeling more confident in its skills.
Remember!!
Using a pendulum is all about being at ease. “Just like when you are going through a meditation, try to simply allow the pendulum to communicate freely with you. The more open you are to receive, the easier you and the pendulum can communicate. And remember, like any other practice, you can enjoy the experience and trust in your ability to connect because you already have your own answers. It’s a tool, that's merely there to help you get closer to your own intuition. Just know, you have your own inner truth, within.
Congratulations! Now that you have it down, it's exciting to know we can also use this tool in a subtle energetic self healing process. lets move into the next lesson to discover how!
