What is Dowsing?
Dowsing is the Ancient Art of finding hidden targets, lost items or oven lost people, Ancient Romans used scrying pendulum using a bowl made of composite metal material, a ring attached by thread to a wand, some prefer crystals instead of a ring
A dowsing pendulum is an object suspended by a cord, used for obtaining information which the normal senses are unable to access on a conscious level. You could improvise with an everyday object, such as a pendant, a chain, a plumb bob or a ring on a thread. However, a pendulum made specifically for dowsing is best because it has a shape and geometry, and a symmetry created for the purpose of dowsing. This allows the swing to be more even, more sensitive and more effective. The pendulum, as an extension of the person using it, may be influenced both consciously and subconsciously.

How To Choose A Pendulum
The best way is to allow a pendulum to choose you. Just notice the one your are intuitively drawn to. That is usually the right one for you.
If you are having difficulty choosing one, here is a list below of the different styles and their purposes.
Different Style Pendulums For Different Purposes
Gemstone pendulums
These pendulums are made from actual gemstones and contain the energies of the stones that they are made from. The energies inside the stones may cause the pendulum to swing stronger giving you a more clear answer to your questions. Gemstones are also very pure forms of energy as long as they are properly cleansed.
Metal pendulums
These pendulums are often made from brass, chrome, pewter, or steel. The magnetic energies that many of these metals provide can give a strong swing to your pendulum bringing more clarification to your answers.
Wood pendulums are made from various woods and are normally hand carved. Wood does not hold energy as well as crystal or metal but they are lightweight, unbreakable and easy to travel with.
Egyptian pendulums are based on the design of the Ancient Egyptian 'ouadj' amulet, which was often tucked into the bandages of Egyptian mummies. It was apparently used to protect and guide the dead in the next world. Egyptian pendulums can be used in the same way as other pendulums but they are believed to have additional abilities, such as taking on the waveform of something else e.g. an intention, colour or herb.
Brigit Chambered Pendulums Chambered or Caged Pendulums: The chamber is accessible through a hinged lid which allows the reader to insert a piece of paper with the written intent of the reading. This helps the reader concentrate on the purpose of the reading. It is also possible to fill the chamber with your favorite magical herb, aiding in the power of the reading. You can place dried herbs, crystals, oils (use a cotton ball or tissue to soak up the oil), hair of a loved one, resins, earth, or any other item sacred to you.
