Hello all. Today I will share with you one of the simplest and straight forward approaches to divination that you can do yourself, anywhere with minimal supplies. The pendulum is simple weight, called a bob, that is suspended from a chain or cord. What you use for this can be anything from a jewelry pendent to a ring on a necklace or a piece of string tied to a metal washer. There are also many lovely ones that are easy to find for purchase. I have a piece of carved amethyst that is sort of conical in shape that is my favorite of all my pendulums. Ideally your bob should be symmetrical and even in weight. You hold the chain by one end and let the bob hang down and then ask yes and no questions. The pendulum gives you answers by moving. Before asking your questions you must figure out how your particular pendulum says yes and how it says no. This is called calibrating the pendulum.
To calibrate, first calm yourself and hold the chain by the end opposite the bob. Make sure that the bob is steady and then ask that it show you how it says "yes." The pendulum should start to move. Repeat but this time ask what its "no" is. You can do this more than once and the results should be consistent. You may ask some control questions that you know the answers to already so that you can check the consistency and confirm the movements for each answer. For me and my favorite pendulum, Yes is a counter-clockwise circular motions, the No is a swing that moves up and down and the Maybe is an erratic shaking. Calibration should be done for each individual pendulum. Write down your results for future reference. You should be the only one using your pendulum but you may still use it to answer questions for others.
Now that you've calibrated, you are ready to use it! Some people like to store their pendulums with a piece of moonstone as this stone corresponds with divination and psychic powers. When beginning to practice this form of divination you can use just about anything but as time goes on, you may want to think about what your pendulum is made of as different materials care different energies and the success and connection one has with a particular stone or metal may differ from another person. Find what you feel comfortable with and what works for you. Namaste.
