In the process of working with the Law of Attraction, you may seek a clear and immediate response to a question. Pendulums are believed to operate as transmitters of psychic energy. They represent intuitive information expressed by your higher self or God-self through the channel of intuition. Veteran pendulum dowsers swear that the more you use the pendulum (thus relying on your intuitive powers), the more your psychic powers will develop. Your pendulum should be considered a personal sacred object or tool. You should not let others handle it and you should keep it in a velvet or silk bag when you are not using it.

In order to get the answers you seek about your life, you first must understand how to interpret the way your pendulum responds to your questions. There are a variety of ways of working with the pendulum, but the following method takes the guesswork out of what the basic yes/no pattern might look like.

When you are ready to start working with the pendulum, establish your ground rules. Tell your higher self or your angels or guides that a clockwise circle indicates a yes answer and counterclockwise indicates a no. Show them by deliberately swinging the pendulum in each of those directions. Ask them to show you when they are ready by demonstrating a yes response. Watch the pendulum start to swing in a clockwise circular pattern. When it does, thank them for demonstrating that they are present and ready. Ask your first question.

Many pendulum users also ask to be shown what a maybe response looks like. It may be a forty-five degree movement, side to side, or some other pattern distinctively different from the circular yes and no patterns.
