# How to Use a Pendulum and Get Accurate Answers
A pendulum is a simple tool used in divination and dowsing, consisting of a weighted object suspended from a string or chain. While it has been employed for centuries across various cultures, today it is commonly used as a means of gaining clarity or answering questions that one might feel uncertain about. Using a pendulum is intuitive and can be surprisingly informative, provided the technique is applied correctly. Here’s how you can use a pendulum effectively to get accurate answers.
## Choosing Your Pendulum
The first step in using a pendulum is choosing one that resonates with you. Pendulums can be made from various materials such as crystal, metal, wood, or glass. Each material and shape may influence the vibrations and the type of responses it may give. Trust your intuition; oftentimes, the right pendulum will seem to choose you rather than the other way around.
## Cleansing Your Pendulum
Before using your new pendulum, it’s essential to cleanse it from any previous energy it might have encountered. You can cleanse your pendulum by placing it under running water, setting it in sunlight or moonlight for several hours, burying it in sea salt, or using smoke from sage or palo santo.
## Programming Your Pendulum
Programming your pendulum involves setting the terms for how it will communicate. Hold the pendulum between your thumb and forefinger and still your mind. Then ask out loud or silently command which direction represents ‘yes’, ‘no’, and possibly ‘maybe’ if desired. Commonly, back and forth might indicate ‘yes’, side to side ‘no’, and diagonal could signify ‘maybe’ or ‘unclear’. Allow the pendulum to move on its own accord in response to these commands.
## Asking Questions
One key aspect of getting accurate answers from a pendulum is to ask clear, concise questions that can be answered with a simple yes or no. Avoid vague questions or those that require more detailed responses.
Before asking your question(s), take time to clear your mind of distractions and center yourself through deep breathing or meditation. This helps in aligning your energies with those of the pendulum.
## Interpreting Answers
Once you ask a question, watch carefully how the pendulum swings. The initial movement might be shaky as energies align but give it time to swing distinctly in response to your question based on how you programmed its movements.
If an answer seems unclear or if the movement is erratic, consider rephrasing your question into something more direct or taking some time before re-asking.
## Practicing Regularly
Working with a pendulum requires practice like any skill involving intuition. The more frequently you use it within sacred space where you feel calm and focused, the more accurate its answers will be over time.
## Setting Boundaries
It’s important when working with any divinatory tool to protect oneself energetically by visualizing protective light around oneself before starting sessions and by explicitly stating spiritual protections like allowing only beings of light who mean well towards you to communicate through the device.
### Conclusion
Using a pendulum can be an enriching practice offering insights into life’s many questions—whether they are about making decisions related to career paths or personal relationships amongst others. Remember that while this tool can provide guidance based on how energies are perceived at that moment; ultimate decisions should always involve multiple perspectives including one’s inner wisdom coupled with practical considerations.
By following these guidelines when using your pendularyou’ll deepen not only your understanding about this ancient practice but also strengthen your intuitive capabilities over time.
