Intuition Made Visible (OM)

 

 

 

Using a pendulum is a simple way to clarify messages from intuition or inspiration. Using a pendulum is a simple way to clarify intuitive and inspirational messages. With its minimal construction, a pendulum that swings freely from a piece of cord or chain shows us a visual understanding of the subtle energies that influence us. When we ask a question using a pendulum, we may receive answers from our own intuition or from our spirit guides or angels. The process, known as “dowsing” or “divining,” also is useful to check our energy centers or even to find lost articles. Whether it is our energy or the whispers of our guides creating the motion, the pendulum helps us better understand the secret language of spirit. Your pendulum can be anything that feels right to you: a crystal pendant, wood or metal ornament, a seashell, an item with sentimental value, or even an acorn on a string. The key is that it must be balanced, so it can swing freely. Before and after each session, you may want to purify your pendulum, perhaps by using salt water or burning sage or incense. Focus on becoming still and choose who you would like to answer your questions: your higher self or your spirit guides or guardian angels. By asking questions you already know the answers to and watching the corresponding movements, you can learn what yes and no look like. Your pendulum may move forward and back for yes and side to side for no, or perhaps a variety of circular motions will be your indicators. For some people, movement comes easily, as they are more in tune with working with energy. Do not give up if you do not get movement right away. Determining a neutral state, which may be stillness or another distinct motion, can help avoid confusion as well. Once you are familiar with your pendulum, you can use it to check the energy of a room or your chakras to see if they are blocked. When we make a practice of listening to our spiritual guidance, it becomes more accessible to us in general. The use of a tool like the pendulum can help us gain mastery of this communication, allowing us to transform our lives into playgrounds for manifesting our gifts and dreams.
