Beginners Dowsing Chapter 1

Dowsing is an art and science that uses tools like a pendulum to access subconscious information. Dowsers can detect invisible energies and alter them through focus and intent. Dowsing has been practiced for centuries to find resources like water and minerals. To begin dowsing, a person selects a pendulum that feels right by asking it questions until one strongly wants to work with them at a level 10.

whAt is dowsing?

Dowsing is an art and a science that creates a bridge to the subconscious mind through the use
of a pendulum or other instruments/tools. Dowsers are able to use that bridge to gain access to
information not normally available to the waking consciousness.

It has been said that dowsing is like mother’s intuition with a readout device1.

how does it work?

Energy can be thought of as an essence, and its various manifestations can be thought of as its
uses or applications. For instance electricity is the essence, its application or manifestation is
the refrigerator, computer or vacuum cleaner.

Energies around us can influence us in different ways. For example, positive or negative
thoughts can manifest as happiness or sadness, or physical sensations, such as pain or pressure,
which can make us feel well or not well. For most of us, these energies are invisible to the naked
eye, but we experience their tangible effects.

Dowsers can detect these energies and can adjust or alter them through focused intent and
connection to their dowsing system. With experience, dowsers develop greater levels of focus
and intent, and achieve better and sometimes longer-lasting results, creating harmony and
balance, promoting good health, and infusing their surroundings with beneficial energies.

Dowsing is a practical skill that anyone who wishes to optimize his/her health and well-being
can learn.

A Brief history of dowsing

Dowsing has been around for centuries, possibly millennia. Herodotus the Greek reported
the use of forked sticks to find water while he was in Scythia, north of the Black Sea, circa 500
BC. Ancient coins, from at least as early as 936 AD, have been found with depictions of
dowsing sticks.

In a bas-relief, the emperor Ta Yu of China, born 2,205 years before Christ, is represented
holding a double-branched instrument which some believe represents the earliest example of a
forked dowsing rod.

Basil Valentine, a Benedictine monk and alchemist in the thirteen hundreds in Saxony left
instructions on how to use rods. In 17th century England, Queen Elizabeth I used dowsers to
find mineral ore to enrich British coffers.

In modern times, dowsing has been used to find oil, submarines, land mines, water, minerals,
and numerous other substances. It has been said that Albert Einstein was fascinated with
dowsing and believed it could be used as an aid in scientific discovery.

your dowsing system

Your dowsing system is unique to you. It consists of your spirit guides (what some people would
consider angels, teachers or helpers) who aid in your pursuit of dowsing.

As your relationship with your dowsing system develops, your intuition will increase.

Your dowsing system is a magnificent entity that will work with you to help you gain clarity and
confidence with practice and patience.

finding your penduLum

The basic form and structure of a pendulum is a weight on a string or a chain. Pendulums come
in a variety of forms, from the simple to the ornate. The quality of materials or construction of
your pendulum matters less than your connection to it—just about anything will work. I have a
friend who is an exceptional dowser; he keeps a key on a string in his desk for times when he
needs to dowse at work.

Start with a simple pendulum that is relatively lightweight. A heavy pendulum can make it
harder for a beginner to read answers properly and make it difficult to move. For more accurate
number readings, choose a pendulum with a point at the bottom.

For first time pendulum buyers shopping online can be tricky. One of my beginning students
bought a very big metal pendulum online that was too heavy for her to work with. Though it did
look very “cool” it was impractical for her to practice with and develop her skills.

There are many methods to finding a pendulum; the one listed below is one of many options.

one method for finding your pendulum match:


Look first; note which pendulums draw your attention.

Pick up the ones you are drawn to, one at a time, and ask the pendulum 3 simple questions:

Are you in service to the light?*


*Light and dark both come from God / Source, and according to Hindu and Buddhist
philosophy, are both part of the inevitable duality of this earth plane. It is important to
understand that without the dark, we would not be able to see the light.

If “Yes” (up-and-down, or vertical swing), go on to the next question

If “No” (side-to-side, or horizontal swing)—this is rare—put it down and pick up the next one
that catches your eye.

do you want to work with me?


If “Yes” (up-and-down, or vertical swing), go on to the last question.

If “No” (side-to-side, or horizontal swing), put it down, pick up the next pendulum and start
over.

on a scale of 1-10 how much do you want to work with me?


Start the pendulum swinging in the “No” position (side-to-side, or horizontal swing) and ask the
numbers in sequence, 1-10, you will get a “Yes” (up-and-down, or vertical swing) when you hit
the correct number value.

If the number value dowsed is a 7 or below, try a different pendulum.

Look for the one that is a 10 for you. If you don’t find it in one shop keep looking. The right
pendulum match is out there for you and you will find it.
