Looking at the Possibilities in PENDULUM MAGIC for BEGINNERS

Nick Howes
PENDULUM MAGIC FOR BEGINNERS - Power to Achieve All Goals, Richard Webster, Llewellyn, 2008, 218pp, index,diagrams, notes, suggested reading.

An excellent beginners guide to use of the pendulum.

Anybody can get a pendulum to function, but not necessarily accurately from the beginning. Although some people ascribe the movements to spiritual influence, it is more reasonably fewlt by many that the autonomic muscular reflexes of your hand which holds the string with the weight on the end -- crystal, wood screw, washer, spare glass eye, whatever -- makes the weight move back and forth, even if you are not willing it. If you are psychically plugged in, your subconscious ideally influences those subtle motions and provides useful information. Anybody can do it. Give it a try.

Beginning Skills

In this book Webster offers advice on how to help assure the information becomes useful. Among other things, he describes one- and two-person pratice activities that allow you to hone your skills. Through regular use a few minutes daily, he says, you can bring your skills to maturity in about a year.

Many books suggest that a pendulum is mainly used to locate things and often stops soon after that.

There is more. I've seen a pendulum used to answer questions about the future and to contact spirits.

More Than Location

Webster definitely addresses the topic of locating missing objects -- and people -- but goes on to cover so much more. The book emphasizes how pendulums can used in detecting and treating health problems, to explore past lives, communicate with ghosts, help recall your dreams, to test food for allergic potential, divine the future with dominoes and pendulum, and it can also prove useful in connection with auras, home, and garden, while producing world peace and bringing about the return of the Donny and Marie Show. The guy deserves credit for his broad approach to the topic.

There's even an advanced pendulum magic chapter which covers the author's own system linking the pendulum and Huna magic of Hawaii.

An inspiring book that delves deeply into areas other than using pendulums to locate things.
