As for your question above, i dont have an answer to that. But i can look a lil later in my book at home and see if there's anything pertaining to motions/responses such as yours.

It's neat to find someone else whos just beginning to use one. As for the motion of mine, YES - striaght up and down. NO - side to side. MAYBE (45 bottom right to upper left and I also use UNLIKELY - which is opposite maybe. I use a chart that came with my pendulum and my free hand as well. One prob i seem to be having is i am unable at times to hold my hand steady - i tend to tremble. Which i didnt notice/pay attention to until using this, where im needing to steady my hand. So i have to work on that, or finding the cause of it.

Happy Swingin' (ohhhhh, does that sound bad!?! - lol)

Thanks for the info! I had always thought that it was supposed to go in a circle in one direction for yes, and circular in the other direction for no, so it's weird. When I use a printed out chart with lines on it, it goes in forward/back motions in the direction of the portion of the chart that indicates the probability of an occurence.

Using it over a printout of the layout of Stonehenge makes it extremely strong...

I learned that you programme it first then stick to what is shown.

For example..you could say "show me my yes" and then take note of what that is and the same with no.

I have clockwise for yes, anti for no and side to side for dont know...

And dont you just hate it when you get that DONT KNOW.....AAAARRRGHHHHH!!!

I'm confused about how not to get the answer you "want" though.

Mine rotates clockwise for yes, no motion for no and swings at 45 degree angle for maybe. I guess that there is no 'right' response - just go with the initial reaction you get. I've asked whether I am ready to propose questions and I get no at the moment so going to keep practising for a bit. I also am mindful about not influencing the response I get because I can get mine to move in any direction I want if I think it.

GeminiLover75 - were you born 1975 then? Me too - my b-day is 4th June when is yours?

I've used a pendulum on and off for several years. I have quite a few pendulums made from different materials, including some that I made myself.

Yes, you program them into your own patterns by asking a series of questions that you know the answers to. It doesn't matter which way the pendulum moves for yes and no or I don't know. Just take note and apply that from there on.

I was always taught to ask the pendulum first, if it was okay to use it before every session. Otherwise, it can play tricks on you and you will get incorrect answers. Even after you have your answer, it's sometimes good to verify by asking "is that answer correct?"

I was also told to say the following before asking the question....."for this is what I want to know, show me the truth....."

If you want to experiment, run a pendulum around someone's body - it will pull into their aura. Another time I sensed I had a spirit at the bottom of my bed and when I moved toward it with my pendulum, the pendulum pulled away from me.

You can try simple things like get a glass of water and a glass of coke. Swing the pendulum in between them and see which one pulls the pendulum in.

It is a good idea to rest your elbow on a table as it makes for a smoother swing.

I also have a book of pendulum charts which is quite fascinating. It even has a chart at the front to help you decide which chart you should be working with for that day.

I was using this book a few years ago with my sister. The pendulum swung to the Bach Flower Remedy Chart. I turned to that page and swung the pendulum again, asking which remedy did my sister need? It went to something called Rescue Remedy. I'd never heard of that, but when I told my sister, she laughed as she had a bottle in her handbag.

BTW - you can pretty much use anything that is weighty and on a string so be wary because I've found myself in situations where I've been holding objects and all of a sudden have them swing. Think toilet cubicle during period......yeah, I'll leave that story right there!

Thats really intersting with the Auric fields. I will definetly be trying diffrent experiments. The book i have has quite a few practice experiments as well. One i saw having someone place quarters under a rug (with you outta the room) and then you use the pendulum to find them.

And yes, Randall, That is incredible. Do you simply ask if its a boy or a girl? Hmmm, so one could also use them to know if someone has indeed concieved as well. Althouh it probably wouldnt behove us to ask the question regarding ourselves, since we can create the response we "want" ...

OOooooo! I can't wait to play with mine some more!!

I've heard that you shouldn't use your dominant hand (the one you write with) to dowse as you tap into your conscious side and just get the anwser you want.

does anyone have tips perhaps? i try hard not to think of what i want to see, but also i get too conscious of the results caused by my own hand-shaking.

i use a faceted clear crystal pendulum with a silver chain i made (when i was learning jewelry making ) and on the other side i attached a tiny faceted amethyst. i feel that it's mine. once in a while i let it sit in a glass of water with lavender flowers over night by a window, hoping that it will cleanse itself and i can have accurate results. i "program" it before each session. it always swings clock-wise for yes, and counter for no. i do a test question every time, like "will it rain tomorrow?" but seems like it's reacting with empty answers, because it is always 50/50.

is this a problem with my concentration? does anyone have a good advice?
