At a time when everyone is interconnected but no one is connecting with their deep “I” anymore, the pendulum can prove to be an ally of choice on the path of spiritual development.
There are many kinds of clocks, you will surely find as many as there are manufacturers.
Getting good guidance in choosing your first pendulum is essential if you don’t want to end up with a tool that only half answers the questions you ask.
I will briefly explain to you what criteria to use to choose it and then we will see together how to take the first steps with this wonderful tool.
The pendulum: instructions for use
The pendulum can prove to be a very powerful tool in the right hands and can quickly frustrate the user who is doing it the wrong way. But finding your pendulum among the multitude of choices that we are offered can quickly become a real headache …
A choice by heart (or not)
Let’s cut short the received ideas now: just because you like a pendulum doesn’t necessarily mean the most suitable for your way of using it.
A pendulum, before being a beautiful object, is above all a tool. A tool must be adapted to the craftsman who uses it: the tool is beautiful if it is functional.
First of all, I strongly invite you to go for a walk in a shop and try some of them, let the merchant guide you by explaining the purpose of your research.
If you can’t do this kind of thing, here is a quick summary of the major families of pendulums:
Shaped wave pendulums:
They have the capacity to transmit. What is this gibberish? More simply, it can amplify the energy that you transmit to it. The best known of them is certainly the pendulum of Thoth, also called “Ouadj column”, discovered by MM. From Bélizal and Morel.
It is among all the clocks that I have my favorite. It is a multipurpose pendulum that can be suitable for both divination and dowsing, but which can be difficult to approach for a beginner because it requires perfect control of his thoughts on pain of obtaining erroneous results. .
For more information about it, I invite you to read the book by Jean-Luc Caradeau “Practical manual for the use of the Egyptian pendulum”.
The witness clocks:
They have the particularity of being able to open in order to place a “witness” in a small space provided for this purpose.
What I call a witness can be a hair, water, a piece of clothing, etc. Generally, this kind of pendulum is used for the research on plan, that it is about people, objects or even water sources.
Stone clocks:
They are generally used by practitioners who use them for care. The stone has the particularity of being more easily charged with energy which for particular care can be very useful.
Wooden clocks
Depending on the type of wood used, the pendulum can be more or less heavy. I strongly advise against large, light pendulums which, in inexperienced hands, are very slow to react.
Favor iron, ebony, boxwood or rosewoods. It is also possible that the pendulum is weighted, ideally for beginners choose a pendulum whose weight is between 15 and 25 grams.
Metal clocks
For a first acquisition, the metal pendulum can prove to be a very good choice. Perfectly balanced, very inexpensive (you can find some for less than 10 euros) and a quite correct weight / size ratio as a rule.
My first pendulum was a “drop of water” metal pendulum that I still use very frequently.
When buying a pendulum, one must first of all pay attention to the balancing, if it is not carried out correctly, which can be the case for the low-end stone pendulums quickly cut and polished in countries like the China or India, you will end up with answers that are difficult to interpret or even with false answers.
Paying attention to this type of detail is very important as the practice will be greatly facilitated and much more enjoyable with a well balanced pendulum.
It is true that some pendulums are more suited to such type of research, but in absolute terms everything (or almost) is possible with YOUR pendulum, even if it is a ring that you have hung on a fishing line 😉
Now that you have all the cards in your hands to make your choice, let’s practice!
How does it work?
Before starting the practice, I will give you some tips that will be of great benefit to you.
In your beginnings, take the time to manipulate your pendulum, observe it from all angles, make it your own.
Once done, sit comfortably and take care to cut yourself off from all possible noise and visual disturbances, by which I mean mainly the telephone and television / radio.
Above all, do not start your first tests before having to perform a more important task, such as going to work, picking up the children, you will only be half-focused and this could affect your first results.
Finally, clear your mind and relax. Relax your mind and try to detach yourself from everything around you. Don’t be afraid, if you don’t get it right the first time it’s okay at all.
The willingness to try is, for now, more important than the result itself, it will come with time!
Getting started with your pendulum
There are as many ways of handling the pendulum as there are people who do it. And what’s more interesting: they are all valid!
I’m not going to give you a miracle recipe, surely there is none. In return I will give you my method:
– take the thread of your pendulum and pass the thread between the index and middle fingers of your directing hand (when you turn your palm towards the sky, the pendulum must be back to your hand);
– place the thread in the middle of the second phalanx of your middle finger;
– pass the pendulum below the middle finger and above the index;
– now it is the weight of the pendulum which keeps your index and middle fingers together;
– close your hand and place your elbow on the table.
This is the method I prefer, even if in some cases it is not applicable (working on a pendulum outside, etc.).
Firstly, it allows you to work in a relaxed way during long sessions, moreover, when you give a command to your pendulum you will feel it start, which will allow you in the long run to avoid looking at the pendulum during your work and will avoid everything. autosuggestion problem.
Learning the pendulum
That’s it ! You know my method, nothing prevents you from testing others, maybe even my method does not suit you, in this case do not panic, use yours.
Let’s move on to practice, how to make him do loops ?! No, jokes, we are going to learn how to make it oscillate and agree on the first mental codes that will serve you as long as you progress in this art.
Have yourself in front of a table, take your pendulum in hand and empty it. Swing it back and forth and say “spin” (mentally is enough).
Do not put intonation or willpower, detach yourself completely from the answer he will give you: do not expect anything.
Normally the pendulum reacts instantly… or almost! The reaction rate is defined by the pendulum. So, when you go to choose your pendulum, carefully analyze the different latency times of the pendulums you will be testing.
Case 1: It does not spin! …
Don’t panic, it’s not your day. Try again tonight or tomorrow, don’t hurry, you’ll get there anyway. It is not difficult in itself and it is surely what blocks you, the fact of not having to make any effort.
This lack of effort is somewhat counterintuitive at first, but you will see that it is really within everyone’s reach.
Case 2: I have succeeded! He turns !
Great, let’s take the next step. Now try with other orders like “turn clockwise” or “counterclockwise” and especially “stop”.
Why “stop” will you say to me? You will quickly see that when doing several jobs in a row, this famous “stop” is essential.
Practice enough so that this “stop” takes between three and five seconds of latency, with practice it will come by itself.
Programming the pendulum
Now that you have your pendulum in hand, we will take care of programming it. What I mean by the term “program” is to define a code that will allow you to understand its reactions.
The method that I propose to you consists of three possible answers:
– ” YES “ : which is characterized by a clockwise gyration
– ” NO “ : which is characterized by an absence of reaction
– “Refusal to answer” : which is characterized by any other movement of the pendulum (counterclockwise gyration, oscillations)
I find this method particularly effective in that it allows you to better refocus your questions and avoid taking the wrong path.
On the other hand, you will need to practice a lot in order to know its latency time well. When you change the pendulum you will have to check the latency times of each of them and depending on the pendulum this may vary between one and five seconds.
Nothing prevents you from using the classic method which consists in defining for the “YES” a clockwise gyration and the reverse for the “NO”, it is up to you to make your choice according to your tastes and your needs.
Latest technical points
Launch it in oscillation before each question (or series of questions), it will react more quickly and will struggle less when starting up if it is too heavy.
Once he has answered your question correctly, relaunch him in oscillation mentally and only then can you ask him another question. One more thing which, with practice, will be achieved quite unconsciously.
Take care to properly adjust the length of the wire. The right length is the one that will allow you to have a quick response and crisp oscillations:
– If the response is too slow, shorten it a bit, knowing that the shorter you work the faster the response, but in general you are approximately 10 cm away.
– If the oscillations are not clear or even disordered it is because your hand is too close to the pendulum, tilt it forward. Note that if your wire is really too long (more than 15cm) this can also happen.
Conclusion
The pendulum is a tool that can seem mysterious or even “magical” at first contact. I would say that this magical side does not really fade over time and, on the contrary, it gains in notoriety.
Magic because it acts both as an “antenna” and as a “monitor”, it is a superb body amplifier which also allows you to very easily interpret the answer (as long as you ask the right questions)!
Remember that the more you work, the faster the pendular reactions will become and the more your perception will become automatic ‘air ^^).
You will find that the less you apply force, the better the pendulum will react. In short, the results you get will depend on your level of mental calm.
