Lepidolite Pendulum
A Pendulum benefits from crystal energy. While a simple piece of string and a button make a simple divining pendulum, a faceted crystal point at the end of a chain adds a rich dimension to your dowsing practices.
Pendulums are often used as tools for spiritual healing and inner growth. Defined as objects attached at the end of a string or metal chain, when suspended from a stationary position, a pendulum will swing back and forth or in a circular motion.
To begin, stand or sit comfortably allowing the pendulum to swing freely. Hold the pendulum with your dominant hand in front of you – or rest your elbow on a table to keep your hand steady. To determine the Yes response, simply think or say “Show me a yes” and to determine a no response, simply think or say “Show me a no.”
Please Note: Since these are made of genuine crystals, variance does occur in size, shape, and color.
