Divination Pendulums
-What are they and how to use them

Pendulums, what are they?
Pendulums are stones/weights which come to a point on the end of a string or chain. Divination pendulums are used to get the answers to questions which can be simply answered by yes or no. They are a really good tool to help you connect with your inner self and your subconscious. So if there is a decision you need to make and you are thorn by which way to go you can use a pendulum to connect with your subconscious of inner/higher self and find the answer you need. While every respect should be given to your pendulum, you always have the free will to go against any answer you receive from it. In all situations trust your gut and do what you feel is right.

Blessing your pendulum

With any tool spiritual or other wise you should always treat it with respect. Just like a power tool where you need to stay safe within the safety guidelines it is the same with any spiritual tool you use. So start by purchasing your tool form a trusted source. When you receive your pendulum treat it only with respect. you may wish to sit it on your window ledge on a full moon to clear it of any negative energies or you may wish to charge it up in the light of the sun (remembering to be careful with any crystals or stones which will magnify the suns light and may cause fire, These I would run under cool water for clearing and warm water for charging. but please refer to the stones basic structure as not all stones can be used with water as the iron content may cause corrosion or the crystal may disintegrate in water as is the case with Malachite, Selentite and Himalayan rock salt to name a few.)
There are many ways you can bless your pendulum but remember if you can't run the crystal under water without doing damage then don't put any oils on it ether. The most straight forward and safest way to bless your pendulum is to put on some soft meditation music if you can, burn some incense if you can or use tingsha bells or a singing bowl to clear your space. in the event you don't have access to any of these then while holding the pendulum in both your hands closed in the prayer position, call in the Angels of Space clearing x3, to clear the space you are working in, your self and the pendulum of anything which is not for your greatest and highest good. (Close your eyes and feel the space clear.)
Call in Archangel Michael (Protection), Archangel Raphael (Healing), Archangel Gabriel (Communication/Speaking truth and honesty) and Archangel Chamuel (Love) to hold the space for you. Call in your Guardian angel to wrap their wings around you.
(Now that you have cleared the pendulum you are going to ask that a blessing be placed on it)
Call on Archangel Gabriel to fill the pendulum with truth, honesty and communication so that any information you receive from it is received for your greatest and highest good.
Call on the other Archangels to fill the pendulum with protection, healing and love.
Thank the angels for doing this for you and finish with ''And so it is''.

Precautions

Take care when using a pendulum. you can get false readings for various reasons. So trust your gut instinct and know that you have the free will to make your own choices in life.
Should you feel that you are getting false readings, stop using it. go back to the start of this page,
  • Clear it
  • Bless it
  • Calibrate it
Ask it a series of questions you know the answers to. If it is still misbehaving then ask yourself is it you? Are you coming from a place of love and light? Are you asking the correct questions? Or is it time to pass the pendulum on to someone else. You may find from time to time that you are drawn to a different pendulum or you feel the urge to pass it on to someone else.

Calibrating your Pendulum

Picture
Each Pendulum an each person is different. So what it yes or no for one person may or may not be yes and no for you. you will also find that some days yes and no will change for you too. We are always changing our vibrations and some days we will have a high vibration and other days it will be a low vibration. Also the pendulum's vibration will change also from use and environment. for this reason it is good practice to cleanse and clear your pendulum if you fell it needs it or even if you haven't worked with it in a while and you want to reconnect with it. you can also repeat the blessing of it as much as you like. Although I would only do this myself if it has been handled by someone who for whatever reason I wish to clear their energy off it or if I misplaced it or left it unattended away from my home for a long length of time and I was unsure of the energies it came into contact with,
I would start by putting on some soft music and bring myself to a place of calm.
  • Hold the pendulum in the hand you use the most (although when using rose quartz and asking about love, your left hand would be best, as it has a direct link to the heart.)
  • Hold the end away from the weight which normally has a bead or charm on the end. Hold the bead/charm between your thumb and forefinger and place the string/chain over the top of your forefinger and allow it to hang freely from there.
  • place the palm of your other hand below the point of the pendulum. Bring it to a complete stop.
  • Sitting as still as you can ask the pendulum to show you yes. make a mental note of its movement.
  • Tell it to stop and wait until it comes to a complete stop.
  • Ask the pendulum to show you no, and make a metal note of the movement.
  • Again tell it to stop and wait for it to completely stop.
  • Ask it 3 questions such as is my name...? Do I live in...? do I have any children....? Remember to ask both correct and incorrect answers. this will allow you to see if it is working for you.
Now your pendulum is ready to use.

Maintenance

It is a good idea to keep your pendulum on your person or under your pillow or beside your bed until you have bonded with it and it has your energy on it.
