Using your pendulum for Divination is a tool for your own spiritual journey. Working with it will make it your own, by putting your own energies into the pendulum. Clear it with either cool water, use sage, or selinite crystal. Then hold your pendulum in your hands and say a prayer. Call on your Angels, guides and spiritual team to assist you with your questions. Once you have your energy into the pendulum, you are ready to work. In order to be sure that your answers are accurate, sit down at a desk or table, so there is support under your elbow. To begin using a pendulum, hold it in your dominant hand. I like to loop my chain over my index finger with the end of the chain between my thumb and index finger, and the pendulum swinging freely. Now you need to allow it to set itself for the answers. Set the tip on the pendulum in the palm of your hand very lightly touching. Lift it up and ask the pendulum, are you ready to work. It should start swinging in a huge circle. Once that is swinging, tell it to stop and you can allow the pendulum to rest back into your palm. Then pull it slightly above the palm again and ask it show you a yes. It will either sway up or down or from side to side. When you get that answer take a note. Say stop and do the process again and ask it to show you a no. This is how you determine your yes and no. The more you work with it the more comfortable you will be. Ask simple questions that the pendulum can answer with a yes or no. If it appears to give you no answer, then it would be a maybe, or the energy has not quite made up its mind. Don’t get discourage, energy can changes daily. When you are finished hold the pendulum in your hand and say thank you for answering my questions and guiding me on my path.
