How To Use A Crysta Pendulum
Crystal pendulums are an amazing tool to have in your crystal toolbox. These energy tools are used to communicate with the spirit via your higher self. The pointed end of the pendulum allows for your energy to be pulled in to help answer questions about yourself.
What is a crystal pendulum?
When you are looking for a bit of guidance, a crystal pendulum can help you clarify, raise your awareness, or give you a better understanding of something. You can ask your pendulum a variety of questions as long as they are about yourself—from life and health to love and career, your pendulum can answer simple and complex questions.
It’s important to remember that the pendulum can only answer yes or no questions, so make sure you phrase your question in a way that will give you the clearest possible answer. You are just a passive participant when using the pendulum—it’s not like flipping a coin where you are taking action.
Instead, the pendulum connects with your energy and it is that energy that moves the pendulum.
How to use your crystal pendulum
There are a few simple steps that will help you successfully use your crystal pendulum.
Clear it
I always recommend clearing your pendulum before you use it. A lot of energy flows through a pendulum with each use, so to ensure you get the most accurate results, you want to start with a clean slate. Not sure how to clear your crystal pendulum? Here are my 5 favorite ways to clear crystals.
Get your questions ready
When you are working with your pendulum, I suggest focusing on one topic that you need guidance on. But, I think it is important to prepare more than one question on that topic to ask during your session. This will help you gain as much insight as possible into the situation at hand and allow you to feel confident in what you’ve learned.
Ask a simple question
It’s important to get to know the directional swings of your pendulum—it isn’t as easy as saying a swing to the left means yes, while a right means no. By asking questions that you already have a definite answer to, you can learn how your pendulum responds to your energy. Try “Is my name ______” or “Do I live in __________”. This will help you get to know how your pendulum will communicate with you.
Keep an open mind
It’s important to keep an open mind and to stay relaxed while you are working with your pendulum. Remember, it feeds off of your energy! So the more open you are, the easier it will be for your pendulum to communicate with you. I also recommend that you release any attachment to the answer/outcome. A crystal pendulum is just a tool—it relays to you what you already know. As they say, we have all the answers inside of us. Stay open, stay positive, and the crystal pendulum will become an invaluable guide.
