Now that you have had a chance to experiment in several different dowsing techniques, you can choose what's best for you. Once you have determined whether it's the pendulum, the Y-rods, the L-rods, the bobber rod, or your own fingers, you can search out your best tool.

One option is to find a family heirloom such as a special gold chain that means a lot to you and will be the most sensitive to use. You can also purchase or make dowsing tools; rely on your psychic intuition to pick out something that feels right. It is important for you to have something that is comfortable to you and also that gives a strong answer. At the same time, you want to remember that it is not the tool that provides the answers. Those come through your unconscious and your Universal Mind. It is also a good idea to find a small dowsing tool that you can easily carry with you at all times. A pendulum fits into your pocket or pocketbook, where another type of rod may not.

Once you've picked out a reliable dowsing tool that responds well to your questions and returns good information on things you are searching for, you can use it to look for other psychic tools. Use your dowsing tool to select a good crystal ball, rune set, or a tarot deck. Take your dowsing implement to a psychic store that sells some of these aids. Let your dowsing tool and your intuition help in the selection. For instance, you can ask your dowsing rod for a “yes” or “no” answer to the question of whether a specific psychic tool is right for you to use.

If you find that dowsing is one of your psychic gifts, the more you use it, the more it will work for you and others in your life.
