Ten suggested
do's and don'ts when dowsing
1. Sensing: When sensing
for information, do not attach yourself to it. For example, if you
are watching a movie, you are free to react to it in many ways.
Two examples night be: You could view it from a "feeling"
standpoint and tune in with deep, strong emotions and really live
the part, or you could see it as a scientist, objectively looking
for information and taking notes. Both could get the same basic
story, How you approach the seeking of information is your choice.
This is especially important when working with unhealthy or noxious
energies. The advantage of using a dowsing device is that you do
not need to try to physically sense or become part of the energies.
2. To Protect Yourself.
To avoid absorbing undesirable energies, simply program or direct
your mind to have a detached sensing attitude. When seeking dowsing
information, talk to your pendulum as if it were a person. This
will direct the energies to the pendulum and not to you. This keeps
your mind on the action of the pendulum and not on the energies.
3. The Question: The
subconscious mind (or whatever it is) seems to be very literal in
its interpretation of your questions and apparently makes no assumptions.
For example if you ask: "Does my car need gas?' The answer
is YES (your car uses air which is a gas) You assumed it knows you
were talking about the amount of gasoline in the gas tank, but that
was not what your asked. I suspect that many apparent wrong answers
really were correct to the literal interpretation of the question.
Make the question a definite request for information existing somewhere,
and not for an opinion of the past, present or future. If you do
to be compared to an agreed upon reference. (As compared to ...
) An example of an incomplete question: "Do you have enough
money?" The answer will be random cause I did not specify what
it is for or when. If instead I asked: "Do you have enough
money, in your pocket right now, for a $1 ice cream cone?"
You could then give a very definite and accurate answer. Carefully
plan your questions.
4. Life's Lessons and
Restricted Areas: not to interfere with anyone's 'Lessons in Life"
or possibly their "Karma" or other unknown areas, that
are best left alone. Always ask your Dowsing System May I, Can I,
If the answer is NO, then tactful voidance is advisable.
5. Privacy: If we are
tuning into the subconscious, then we have access to a lot of information.
Never (except under very special circumstances) dowse a person without
their personal request. It's like looking at their personal diary
without their permission. Some persons know how to shield themselves,
but most do not. Always respect personal privacy.
6. Apparent Universal
Law: Be aware that there seems to be a universal law of cause and
effect, or what you plant, you will reap, or Karma, or what you
send out will somehow return to you, etc. (1) Always dowse for the
best good of others. (2) Never try to use this gift for evil or
selfish gain. (3) It's OK to dowse for your or others needs. (4)
Always remember it's a gift to cherish and give.
7. Diagnosing: Do Not
diagnose or give medical advice of any kind!! Always advise anyone
to seek appropriate medical advice if they think they have a problem.
Caution - See* bottom of this page.
8. Sharing with Others:
Gradually and discreetly share with those who want to know. But
be unknown to those it might frighten or offend.
9. Open Mind: Always
keep your mind open to new ideas and look for ways to improve. Be
a life-long student, it will being much excitement and joy to you
and your friends. If I may, please let me interject just a touch
of philosophy: Don't let your personal feelings interfere with your
looking and listening. Just remember that one of the main reasons
you believe and feel the way you do is because of the time (epoch,
period, era) of your birth, and its geographic and ethnic location.
This is further influenced by your particular experiences, educational
and religious background. Don't let your beliefs block examining
new ideas. Also, remember that a person's judgment is no better
than their information.
10. Keep it Simple: Try
to keep all aspects of your dowsing as simple as you can. Be sure
to practice and enjoy your dowsing.
