Pendulums
A pendulum is a small weight
attached to a length of chain or thread. When someone holds
it by the thread and asks a question, the weight moves and
provides the answer. It is an amazing tool that can be used
for many different purposes.
Just recently, a friend of
mine decided to buy a car. He looked through the advertisements
in the daily paper and asked his pendulum about the cars that
sounded interesting. The pendulum gave a positive response
to six cars, and eventually told him which car he should buy.
He looked at all six, and finally bought the car that the
pendulum had indicated.
Some friends went to Paris
on a business trip. After finishing their business, they had
one free day before coming home. They used a pendulum to determine
which sights they should see.
People who were house-sitting
next door to us lost their pet rabbit. After frantically searching
the immediate neighborhood, they used a pendulum to locate
the exact spot where he was.
These examples show the versatility
and possibilities of this simple tool. Despite its ease and
usefulness, I have met many people who learned how to use
it and then discarded it as it was “too simple.”
At least one of my students would disagree. She owes her life
to the humble pendulum. She is allergic to MSG (monosodium
glutamate) that is sometimes used as a flavor enhancer. She
has had several hospital stays as a result of inadvertently
consuming it. Consequently, whenever she eats away from home
she uses a pendulum to determine if there is any MSG in the
meal. I doubt that she’d consider the pendulum “too
simple” to bother with.
Of course, even though a pendulum
is simple to use, it takes practice to become good at it.
You can buy pendulums at any new age store, but any weight
suspended on cord or chain will act as an impromptu pendulum.
Choose something that weighs at least three ounces and attach
it to four to six inches of cord. I have a huge collection
of pendulums, because my family invariably buys me a small
object attached to a chain or cord for birthday and Christmas
presents.
Hold the cord between the
thumb and first finger of your right hand, if you are right-handed.
(Use your left, if you are left-handed.) Rest your elbow on
a table and allow the pendulum to swing freely an inch or
so above the surface of the table. Stop the movement of the
weight with your free hand. Then ask the pendulum to move
in a direction that means "yes." The pendulum may
start moving immediately, or it might take a while to indicate
a positive response. Once it starts, it will either move from
side to side, backwards and forwards, or rotate in a clockwise
or anti-clockwise direction.
Once the pendulum has indicated
"yes,"stop it again, and then ask it to indicate
"no."Follow this by asking for "I don't know"
and "I don't want to answer" responses.
Now you can ask the pendulum
questions that can be answered with these four movements.
Start by asking the pendulum questions that you already know
the answers to. You might ask it if you are male. You will
get a "yes" answer if you are, and a "no"
response if you are not. Ask if you live at your current address.
It should reply positively.
After checking your pendulum
in this way, you can proceed to ask questions that you do
not know the answers to. Start by asking questions that you
can check later on. The correct answers that your pendulum
provides will give you confidence as you continue to experiment.
There is no limit to the types
of questions you can ask once you become proficient with the
pendulum. However, remember that it is possible to mentally
influence and override the movements of the pendulum. Suppose,
for instance, someone in your family is pregnant and you want
to know the sex of the unborn baby. The pendulum will give
you the correct answer if you honestly do not care what the
sex will be. However, if you are hoping it will be a girl,
for instance, the pendulum will confirm this, even if it is
not correct. Your desire will have influenced the movements
of the pendulum. Consequently, if you have an emotional involvement
in the answer, you will find it better to have someone who
has no interest in the outcome to ask the pendulum for you.
The pendulum should never
be used flippantly. Not long ago, a teenager told me how she
and her friends used a pendulum in an attempt to learn embarrassing
information about fellow classmates. Pendulums do not like
being used in this way and sometimes react by refusing to
move at all. Not surprisingly, the answers these students
received were confusing and conflicting. The sad thing is
that these young people failed to learn how useful and practical
a pendulum can be when it is used properly.
The pendulum can literally
work miracles. Once you become proficient with it, you will
wonder how you ever managed without it. While writing this,
my wife suggested that we go to the movies tonight. She handed
me the entertainment section of the newspaper, and my pendulum.
She knows that the pendulum will choose a movie that we’ll
both enjoy. That’s yet another benefit of the humble
pendulum.
