We have a great relationship, my pendulum and me. No matter how much time passes it's programming is still spot on and our connection is as strong as ever.
One benefit of having my kids at their dad's, albeit reluctantly for my son, is time to meditate and work with my pendulum. It's a great guide for me and the answers I receive are though at times not what I want to see but what I need to see. It really puts things in perspective for me.
Monday night I had a few hours alone in the house and I took advantage of this time by meditating and hauling out my pendulum. I have two, one that is entirely silver and the other is silver and amethyst, that one I use when the focus is healing. The silver pendulum is my first, it's the one I learned on and it holds a special connection to spirit.
There are many theories on how pendulums work and some disbelief in the thought that they work at all. Until you actually have, dedicate, program and work with a pendulum there is no easy way to describe how they work, just that they do work.
When I use my pendulum, I cleans it first and for most, I set my intention and for good measure I check it's programming. What I mean is, the way a pendulum swings tells you your answers. YOU as the holder programmes the pendulum the first time you use it. This is so very important and until you're familiar with the swings you should write them down.
There are four basic answers you can expect, yes, no, maybe, and no answer. Initially I had only programmed the first three my pendulum chose the last one. When spirit is unsure, unable or unwilling to answer a question my pendulum would point straight down and quiver. Took a while to figure out what was going on but eventually I clued in and we now have the four answers.
One very important thing to remember is you are not moving the pendulum, you hold as still as you can. I use both hands bracing my right with my left to ensure as little of my motion as possible. The pendulum also is not moving on it's own, there is someone in spirit affecting the energy around the pendulum causing it to swing based on the answers.
I made this mistake early on until I was "clued in" to whom exactly was doing the work. And it's hard work for spirit to manipulate a seemingly simple object. I will never forget the rush of euphoria when I realised it was my closest guide answering my questions, not this inanimate object I was holding. Believe me I was very apologetic.
What is truly amazing is watching the pendulum change directions from one answer to the next or to watch a perfectly still pendulum start moving, seemingly on it's own. I know what it feels like to start it spinning or swinging, I've tested it, I also know how to stop it myself, all these mechanical movements by me are very different from when spirit is moving it.
ALSO I have tried to will it to move, you know using telekinesis, ya, it doesn't work, I'm not willing it to move in my desired direction. If I could do that I should be able to move other objects and sadly I can't.
It still amazes me to watch my pendulum in action. Spinning clock wise for yes, up and down for no and side to side for maybe. There was no rhyme or reason to the programming, it's what worked for my guide at the time and is still strongly set in the pendulum for anyone else in spirit wanting to make a connection. Oh, that's another thing, I've had a variety of helpers from the other side including my grandmother and a complete stranger trying their hand at it. Fascinating all of it.
If you're wanting to learn how to use a pendulum, I've written a handy how to manual with some really neat guides. Send me a fb message or email me at tammytroughton@shaw.ca and I will email you a copy.
With love and light, always.
