PENDULUMS, BOARDS AND TABLECLOTH

pendulums are a beautiful, powerful tool that can help with energy healing, meditation, divination and dowsing. We all possess the inherent power of intuition, but pendulums are valuable tools that help us tap into that to find the answers we already have within us. In this guide, we will teach you the basics: from what is divination to the art of using this spiritual tool and provide the answers.

Pendulums are objects used for spiritual practices, just like divination cards. These tools help us connect to our intuition, ask questions, and heal. They can consist of various materials, including crystals, wood, glass, and metals. In terms of healing, crystal pendulums, such as an amethyst pendulum, can be used for unblocking chakras and blocking chakra energies.
As the pendulum acts as an amplifier for the energy to flow fluidly throughout the body, it provides good information in determining your chakra for your decision-making process. The pendulum also acts as a divination tool to help find blockages in the energetic body.

Crystals: Clear Quartz, Amethyst, Rose Quartz, or Selenite
• Wood: Oak, Ash, or Pine
• Metal: Copper, Brass, or Silver
• Glass or Resin: Various colors and designs
Remember, the material of your pendulum is a personal choice, and what matters most is your connection with the tool.
Before using your pendulum, it’s important to cleanse and charge it. This helps to remove any residual energies and attune the pendulum to your own energy. There are several ways to do this:
• Smudging: Pass your pendulum through the smoke of sage, palo santo, or your preferred cleansing herb
• Moonlight: Place your pendulum under the light of a full moon overnight
• Visualization: Hold your pendulum and visualize white light cleansing and charging it
• Intention: Set a clear intention for your pendulum to be a tool for guidance and insight
• To use your pendulum effectively, you’ll need to establish a clear line of communication. Start by holding the pendulum’s chain between your fingers, allowing the weight to dangle freely over the center of your pendulum mat. Ask your pendulum to show you a “yes” response, and observe its movement. Common responses include: Swinging towards the “Yes” section of the mat
• Swinging towards the “No” section of the mat
• Swinging towards the “Maybe” section or making a circular motion
Repeat this process for “no” and “maybe” responses. Keep in mind that your pendulum’s responses may differ from others, so trust what feels right to you.
Now that you’ve established your pendulum’s communication style, it’s time to start asking questions. Begin with simple, clear questions that can be answered with a “yes” or “no.” Hold your pendulum over the center of the mat, ask your question, and wait for the pendulum to begin moving. Trust your intuition and interpret the response based on where the pendulum swings on the mat.
• Stay grounded and centered while using your pendulum
• Ask clear, specific questions to receive accurate answers
• Trust your intuition and don’t second-guess the pendulum’s responses
• Practice regularly to strengthen your connection with your pendulum
• Keep a pendulum journal to track your questions and insights
Conclusion
Using a pendulum for divination is a simple and accessible way to tap into your intuition and seek guidance from within. With a pendulum mat, a little practice, and an open mind, you can start incorporating this powerful tool into your spiritual practice. Remember, your pendulum is a sacred ally on your journey of self-discovery and growth.
