The Pendulum
How to use the pendulum. Bruce Clifton

This is one of a series of energy chronicles.
I am a healer, I practice Holistic and Spiritual healing and have been working professionally for more than 10 years, I have been aware of spirit since I was a child and have been aware of natural energies since my teens. In 2004 there were circumstances and situations in my life that changed my life forever and it was at this point that I decided to dedicate myself to spirit and natural energy. Even more recently I have indulged in mediumship, clairvoyance and psychic work in both a personal and a professional capacity.
One of the tools I use is a pendulum. The pendulum is a tool of truth it brings clarity to situations and it reminds us to think outside the box. The art of using the pendulum successfully is knowing how to ask the question, if it gives answers we don’t understand or refuses to give an answer, then the question will need to be rephrased. The clarity of the question will improve the quality of the answer.
Most people will have heard of dowsing rods or pendulums, water diviners using rods to find water, then stamping their feet to establish depth. Pendulums can be used for healing, for finding lost items, for establishing truth… they are a part of our culture and probably everyone has got a story about a pendulum or knows of someone who uses a pendulum.
There are many stories and urban myths to be heard and this chronicle will hopefully clarify how a pendulum actually works or could work for you. The pendulum has the potential to be a life enhancing tool.
In a previous chronicle I have described how to stimulate palm chakras and how to enhance natural energy so very quickly we shall do that now.
We are going to have a quick language lesson and we are going to learn how the pendulum works and the pendulums language. Everyone is different but once you learn it, it will usually remain the same unless you change pendulums or if other energies are involved. Some pendulums work from front to back and left to right, others work clockwise, anti-clockwise, some jump and the cord vibrates, some give a sense of knowing. So it is very much a case of working with the pendulum and gaining understanding of your energies and the energies surrounding the pendulum. An important consideration is time, place and circumstance.
Hold your pendulum by the top of the cord using the thumb and the forefinger and allow the pendulum to settle. Allow natural energy that you raised to flow through you and to the pendulum. Remember that you are the conductor the vessel to which energy will flow, you are completely neutral and will not influence the energy to do anything except flow.
Once you feel at ease with the energy and the pendulum, ask the question out loud or in your mind show me the answer for “yes.”
By asking the question out loud and hearing the sound of your voice, it will help you to realise just how positive this affirmation is
Relax and do not put any effort into generating an answer, some of you are able to move things with the power of your mind so be careful not to interfere with the natural order of things.
This might take a couple of minutes so be patient, don’t tense up, relax and let it happen and it will.
Once you have the answer for yes, we want an answer for no. So repeat the exercise.
Hold the top of the cord and allow the pendulum to settle, once again allow the energies to flow into you, through you and to settle with the pendulum. (On a side note, while you are standing there watching the pendulum and waiting for the energies to feel right, this is a great exercise for seeing aura’s. Some of you will know the time is right because the pendulum will glow.)
When you are ready ask the pendulum for the answer to No.
Normally the pendulum will do the opposite to what it did for yes but sometimes it will do something different, if it does something different then repeat the whole process and allow it to show you again. If it refuses to show you anything it may well be that you have a hidden agenda, and you may be seeking answers to third party questions so shouldn’t be asking questions in the first place.
An example of a poor question is: Is my next door neighbour having an affair?
This question involves a third party and involves energies beyond your control, if you were to get an answer to this question it will probably be influenced heavily by you.
Another typical example of a poorly constructed question is: Is my husband going to leave me?
The pendulum is almost guaranteed to say yes… because your husband will leave you to go to work… to go into the other room…
When working with the pendulum it is important to always work in truth, love and light. Once you start working with the pendulum and have trained yourself to work with the energies and the pendulum, it will be easy to take the pendulum for granted, it should always be remembered that this is a life enhancing tool, in the sense that it can enhance your life if used for that intention.
Once a relationship has been established with the pendulum, a rapport will develop and you will build an understanding with the pendulum. In order not to take it for granted it is worth testing it frequently and often, so ask a simple question to test the response, once you are happy with the response and happy that you understand what it will tell you then you are nearly ready to work.
Hold the pendulum and think of the question you want to ask, now you are ready to perform the ritual with the pendulum.
We have a ritual for pendulum work and the ritual is asking three questions:
1) Should I ask the question?
2) Can I ask the question?
3) May I ask the question?
Providing the answer "yes" is given to all three questions then it is ok to ask the question you want to ask, reassured that the answer will be given in truth, in light and with love.
It is also worth remembering to close and seal the energies that were opened earlier to connect with the pendulum.
Stand with feet shoulder width apart and bring hands together as if in prayer position, palm against palm with no space in between the palms.
State out loud so you can hear your own voice “My energy is my own.”
Allow that affirmation to resonate with you and that you have closed your energy field and that it is actually your own and you are no longer sharing it.
It is worth shaking out your hands and sweeping down your arms to release any energy and residue energy.
Bless you for joining me today.

In a previous chronicle I have described how to stimulate palm chakras and how to enhance natural energy so very quickly we shall do that now.
- Stand with feet shoulder width apart and feet flat on the ground.
- Bring your hands together as if in prayer position at chest height.
- Close your eyes.
- Move your hands apart with about 2 inches of space between them.
- Natural energy will normally travel from left palm to right palm.
- Move your palms further away so go to 6 inches and back to 2 inches
- Do this a few times then keep them at about 2 inches apart
