Wholistic Living With the Pendulum

The pendulum is a very useful tool for getting in touch with the deeper levels of your being. In 1949 a prehistoric cave mural was found showing a dowser looking for water. Carbon dating revealed that the moral was at least 8.000 years old. So dowsing has been around for quite some time.

For a long while it seemed to be almost forgotten, but in the last hundred years interest has increased again, particularly in Europe where the pendulum is often used for medical diagnosis.

I myself use the pendulum a lot in connection with palmistry, or to be correct, my clients are given a pendulum to use when I do palmistry readings. Why? It is an incredible tool because it gives me and my clients a more accurate reading particularly with regard to predicting the future.

But it is a most overlooked tool by many psychic practitioners. Use it!

HOW DOES IT WORK?

The pendulum reads exact energy patterns. Every living thing is surrounded by energy, some good and some bad. We can easily sense and distinguish different energies. Cleve Backster`s experiments vividly showed how plants will shrink away from negative energies. All living things have this capability, but we humans are either not aware of it, or tend to ignore it most of the time.

How can we meet someone and in just a few seconds dislike them or feel they can not be trusted? Our nervous system is the communication system in our bodies. The brain gets its information through the nervous system and then transmits that information back. Hence, we may feel drawn towards someone without knowing why.

If our nervous system was working perfectly, we would not need any outside aids. Someone with a perfect, well-attuned nervous system would merely have to think about a problem and his or her would send out energy wherever it was necessary to bring back the required information, and he or she see the answer as a physical sensation. Sad to say, few of us are that well developed, and this is where the pendulum becomes so useful.

The responses the pendulum makes do not come from the pendulum itself, but from your inner being. Your inner mind and super-conscious mind communicating through your nervous system. As a result, when we hold the pendulum over something, we are measuring the interaction of the object`s force field with our own nervous system.

Interestingly enough, it is not necessary to have the actual object or person present to get accurate readings. The famous French priest, Abbè Mermet, was able to successfully dowse for water and minerals in Africa from the comfort of his office in France.

Verne Cameron was able to demonstrate to the American navy how he could locate the position and depth of every submarine in the Pacific Ocean. He was also able to determine which submarines were American and which were Russian.

How can this sort of thing happen? The term, teleradiesthesia (direction from a distance), gives a clue. If you imagine your mind as being a combination radio and TV receiver and transmitter and then think about a certain object (or person or idea) you will become in tune with it, get on the same wavelength. Nerve cells begin to vibrate in resonance to it and the nervous system causes the appropriate movements to take place in the pendulum.

WHOLISTIC LIVING WITH THE PENDULUM

We are all inclined to limit our lives by concentrating our attention on one small area at the expense of the whole. By using the pendulum we can find out which areas are being neglected and need special attention. We all know people who are very successful in one area of their lives but dismal failures in others. For instance, someone might be at the top of his or her field professionally, but have a string of broken relationships. Someone else may be very intellectual, but totally out of touch with his or her feelings, and so on. If we are out of tune this way, we can rectify the situation with our pendulum!

According to Isadore Friedman, well known radiesthetist (pendulum user) in his book:

“The Mathematics of Consciousness” five areas should be balanced for the individual to live happily and well. These are:

the physical aspect (food, clothing, good health)

the mental aspect (intellectual ability, the ability to communicate and share ideas)

the financial aspect (career, earning enough money to do the things one wants to do)

the social aspect (friends, emotional nourishment, love) and

the spiritual aspect (inner growth, search for the meaning and purpose in life).

If any of these areas are imbalanced the person is likely to feel unhappy and frustrated. Friedman writes the five aspects on a five-pointed star and recommends that you check yourself out in each category once a month. Hold your pendulum over each point of the star in turn and ask yourself, “Am I balanced in this area of my life?”

Friedman also suggests using the twelve houses of the Zodiac as together they cover just about every aspect of a person`s life. Draw them in a circle divided into twelve areas (called houses) and write the different categories in each house. Hold your pendulum over each house and see if it give you a positive or negative reading. If it shows negative over, say, the second house, it shows that you have negative and blocked energies which are causing problems in the area of money and finance.

Once you know this, you can take practical steps to correct the situation. You may find that this block has been there just about all of your life, and you may have to think was back into the past to find out what originally caused it.
