Divination With #Dowsing Rods

By Carolyn Naiman

Dowsing Rods have been used for divination for centuries. Although there is evidence suggesting that dowsing was in use 8,000 years ago, the first historically recorded evidence of the use of dowsing dates back to 16th Century Germany. Dowsing rods were included in ceremonial magic rituals. It was believed that dowsing rods could help locate precious metals and hidden objects. For dowsing practitioners of this time, dowsing was considered to be a form magic that was looked upon as something evil and unnatural.

In recent times, dowsing rods are utilized to locate water, minerals, oil, ancient artifacts, ghosts and psychic energy. No one is certain as to how exactly these rods actually work. One theory suggests the dowsing rods radiate energy that is bounced of specific objects or specific places. In this case, a geomagnetic field causes the rods to move towards an object's energy. Others believe that dowsing rods help an individual tap into the psychic energy or energetic vibrations of objects. This is done by concentrating on a particular object which in turn cause the rods to tune into the object's energy. In either case, dowsing remains a popular psychic tool for many people who wish to explore psychic energy or psychic phenomenon.

There are many different types of rods, however, the two most common are v-shaped branches, usually made from hazel or willow twig, and metal rods. The process of dowsing is relatively simple. The dowser holds the branch or rods in his or her hands and concentrates on the object or place they are seeking. They then begin walking, often being led by their third eye or psychic intuition. When the Dowser reaches a point of interest, the dowsing rods move in conjunction. The closer the Dowser is to the desired object, the more the dowsing rods will move.

There are many skeptics who doubt the validity of dowsing. Unfortunately there is very little scientific evidence that suggests how these rods actually work. However, for those who have had success with this psychic tool, swear by its legitimacy and a few dowsers have demonstrated an uncanny ability to locate subterranean sources of water and other types of mineral deposits. In either case, it is a relatively easy practice and is available to anyone who wishes to explore its efficacy.

Science Can't Explain Everything!

By Judy Williams

You will know that if you have spent at least some time reflecting on the world around you, some things cannot be explained in purely scientific terms. Armies of scientists and researchers swarm in labs around the world trying to take the mystery out of every bit of wonder we witness.

What is it that attracts us to a future partner? Scientists will say...tiny, odour sensors in our noses!

What causes shimmering lights in the night sky? Scientists say...sun spots affecting the earth's electromagnetic field.

It is true (I guess) that those things come about due to some sort of cause and effect from physical laws we have devised.

But it takes so much of the magic and mystery out of our lives.

Maybe it's a sunspot...but can I see a sunspot and predict the result? No I can't...All I can see is the mystery and beauty of the results. Can't I just spend some time enjoying the wonder of it?

If I managed to see my future partner across a crowded room and feel an instant 'twinge' does it make it any less magic? Is it worth reflecting on how, despite being born at opposite ends of the earth, we found ourselves in the same place and time at a random event that saw two worlds collide? I think it is. Because no event is a result of just one other event. It is always a combination of physical law and mysterious circumstance.

So is it so surprising that we can divine mysterious things in our gardens?

Take the case of companion planting, particularly in a vegetable garden. Companion planting is when the health and yields of particular plants can be improved by planting specific other plants near them. For instance, peas love being near beans, corn, carrots and cucumbers, but really hate being near onions. Potatoes enjoy the company of beans, peas and cabbage but are unhappy near tomatoes.

Any number of botanists will tell you that there are 'reasons' for this. Some attract the sort of bugs another needs, some have a scent that disturbs the progress of others. But wait a second...doesn't this sound just a little bit like personality?

Is it not possible that some plants just generally get along better with others because... what? They get what they need from them? They enjoy their company? Sound like another species you might be familiar with??

Companion planting is not considered 'scientific' because the results are not consistent and not always provable. Companion guidelines are based on observation and anecdote. Some combinations work better in the northern hemisphere than the southern hemisphere (True! Well, at least, anecdotally it's true). Some plants react contrary to expectations. But could that be due to something else??

The difference between male, female and neutral plants can be startling. You will know yourself that sometimes, two plants started at the same time or from the same magnificent parent plant will turn out completely differently. So now, not only do we have to contend with personality, we have to contend with the sex of a plant.

I know what you're thinking. Well, I think I know what you're thinking...how do you tell the sex of a plant? It's very unscientific, but so far, pretty reliable in its results. Hold a pendulum over the plant. This can be a needle on a thread, a seashell on fishing tackle, a necklace, whatever. The pendulum will move of it's own accord to indicate the sex of the plant.

Try it. The really healthy plants will be female (positive). They will make the pendulum move in a clockwise circle over the top of it. The male (negative) plant will make the pendulum move from side to side. If the pendulum doesn't move at all, the plant is neutral or the soil is lifeless. Forget it. Nothing is going to come out of that.

It's called dowsing and is the same method that has people finding water using a Y shaped pointed stick. Scientific? Nope. Does that mean it doesn't work? Not at all.

So here we are with two startling propositions. That your vegetable plants have both a sex and a personality that will determine at least in part, how they turn out despite your input. Geez, that's starting to sound a lot like my kids! (who will turn out very different from me, despite the magnificent parenting stock!!)

What does it mean for you as a gardener? The same thing it means for you as a parent.

Nurture your plants. Give them everything you think they will need to succeed.

Read advice books as required, but understand that observation will be your best guide.

Do not despair. Do not give up. It's about the journey, not the destination.

Understand that not all things can be understood. Sometimes, it's just the wonder of nature.
Enjoy yourself.

Judy Williams (http://www.no-dig-vegetablegarden.com) splits her time between being a big time media executive and alternative lifestyle earth mother. This accurately reflects her split 'Gemini' nature. She refuses to give up on the notion she can have it all.

Unlock Your Intuition - The Power of the Pendulum

Unlock Your Intuition - The Power of the Pendulum
By Bente Hewitt

Using a pendulum is a form of 'kinesiology.' As with muscle testing, your own 'body spirit' or 'body angel' who is in charge of moving the subtle energy around your body, responds to your thoughts and words using that energy to move the pendulum and answer your questions.

Historically, dowsing (the use of a pendulum for answers) has been known for its ability to locate water, gold, oil and other minerals, but it has also been used in many instances involving issues of life and death. Many people have used the pendulum to detect allergies and other ailments, and even to accurately determine the gender and birth date of unborn babies (baby gender prediction).

Throughout history, people have turned to the pendulum to guide them when their lives were at stake. In dire circumstances during the Vietnam War, some U.S. marines were taught to use a pendulum to locate underground mines and tunnels.

Some people say that the pendulum creates a bridge between the logical and intuitive parts of the mind. Some say that the pendulum connects them with a higher power and call it "divining" as the information is believed to come from a divine source. Research by many scientists indicates that the pendulum responds to electromagnetic energy that radiates from everything on Earth. No one knows for sure how the pendulum works, but the important thing is that it does work! As Thomas Edison is said to have replied when asked about electricity: "I don't know what it is, but it's there, let's use it."

Another way of looking at it is realizing that a TV antenna can pick up invisible rays and translate them into pictures, so perhaps the inherent electrical current of the brain can also act as a receiver for which the pendulum serves as a transmitter.

But regardless, even if you do not understand how the pendulum works, just as most people don't know the inner workings of a television or telephone, you can still benefit from its use. You do not have to be psychic to use a pendulum; there is nothing magical or mystical despite the fact that friends and family are always amazed at its uncanny accuracy.

The most inexpensive pendulum can be made for less than a penny by tying a small object such as a small nut on the end of a piece of string. Expensive pendulums can be made from the finest of crystals. The crystals are believed to possess certain energies that are compatible with the user's energies to get the best results.

What makes it work? Tiny muscles in your finger tips are connected to the motor centers of the brain and it is these motor centers that are affected by unconscious thoughts. Your unconscious thoughts cause the tiny muscles in your fingers to react and thus move the pendulum. This is called the idiomatic response. The pendulum then becomes a direct link to your unconscious. And the unconscious is where thoughts and memories are stored that your conscious is unaware of. The pendulum is a means of connecting with those hidden truths and memories. You try...

Here's How to Use a Pendulum:

1. Choose A Pendulum: Allow a pendulum to choose you. If you like the way it looks or feels, it is meant for you.

2. Cleanse Your Pendulum: You may cleanse it by holding it under running cold tap water, soaking it in sea salt, or setting a mental intention to free it of 'picked up energies.'

3. Understand the Directional Swings of Your Pendulum: Pendulums swing in vertical straight lines, horizontal straight lines, and in circular movements.

4. Define the Directional Swings of Your Pendulum: Assign each directional swing a "response" by first asking the pendulum to show you what certain responses look like. Prop your elbow on the table, with the pendulum between your thumb and forefinger, Ask: What does a NO look like? What does a YES look like? or Say "My name is (your name)." This should give you a YES response. Asking it the wrong name should give you a NO response.

Pendulum Response Examples:

-vertical swing signifies NO -horizontal swing signifies YES -circular movement signifies NEUTRAL

5. Prepare Your Questions: A question should be one that can be answered with a positive, negative or neutral response. Good Example Question: Is this cereal beneficial for my body?

Poor Example Question: Will I have a boy or a girl?

6. Ask Your Questions: Be prepared to ask several questions in order to receive enough information to aid you in your quest for answers. You may need to ask several questions about the same subject in order to get accurate information. For example:

-Is this cereal beneficial for my body? Response: No -Is the oat flour in the cereal beneficial for my body? Response: Yes (oats are ok) -Is the barley in the cereal beneficial for my body? Response: Yes (barley is ok)

Is the corn flour in the cereal beneficial for my body? Response: No (there is your answer. Your body cannot tolerate corn products at this time.) Remember your body can tolerate some foods one day and not the next. Therefore it is important to use your pendulum daily if on a special food program.

7. Between Questions: Make sure to completely stop any pendulum motion between questions to clear any lingering energies that pertain to the previous question.

8. Have fun. Keep an open mind!

Gustav Von Pohl - The Man Behind a Radical Idea

By Nigel Percyand Maggie Percy

von Pohl, or, to give him his full title, Freiherr Gustav von Pohl, may not be a name which trips off your tongue. He might not have made any impression on your life so far. Or, perhaps, there's a dimly sounding bell at the back of your mind but you have no real clue what it might be trying to help you remember.

If any of those are true for you, then that's a shame. Because Gustav von Pohl has a very important role to play in ideas about disease, especially cancer.

Now, before you make any assumptions, it should be made clear that von Pohl was not a doctor or, as far as I know, associated with any medical discipline at all. What he discovered, however, has made some doctors re-think everything they've learned about disease and made others turn their backs on the ideas and research which his findings instigated.

Being the cause of two opposing reactions should be reason enough to learn more about him.

His expertise was as a dowser. He was able to find water using a dowsing tool. It is an old practice, much valued in certain parts of the world. He was also able to locate unhealthy places in the environment.

But the most important attribute for us was his questioning nature.

The focus of his interest was the small town of Vilsbiburg in his native Germany. What made this town so interesting to von Pohl was the health of the inhabitants.

This small town in Bavaria only had 3,300 people living there, yet, in the previous ten years there had been 54 deaths from cancer. More sadly, 42 of the houses had a history of seven deaths from cancer. This death rate from cancer was the highest in Bavaria.

It set von Pohl thinking. He had heard about geological faults as being a possible cause of illness and he thought that maybe something like that could explain the deaths.

He sought and gained permission to use his dowsing skills to see if he could locate areas underground which would explain the deaths.

The authorities welcomed the interest but were determined not to prejudice him in any way. After all, they had a very good reason for finding out what was happening.

So it was that, in 1929, from January 13th to the 19th, von Pohl dowsed the whole area of the town. He was accompanied by a police escort who made sure that he didn't speak to anyone and he wasn't allowed to discuss with anyone what he was finding.

He marked his findings, the places he dowsed as being unhealthy, on a map.

On a copy of the map, the town's Medical Officer of Health, a Herr Bernhuber, also marked the sites of the cancer victims.

When the two maps were compared, the beds of all 54 cancer victims were found to be over the areas which von Pohl had marked.

Despite this, it made little news and sparked little interest until the following year when the Berlin Center for Cancer Research published the findings in their journal.

This started a rash of interest in people, particularly medical doctors, trying to disprove the findings. Despite many attempts, no-one was able to disprove von Pohl's conclusion that disease is primarily associated with location.

Nearly 100 years later, research still shows that his basic assumption is true. We can and do become ill because of where we live. And yet, despite the overwhelming evidence that humans are affected in a variety of ways by the environment, no significant medical body has had the courage to invest time and money in this field. It is probably true to think that von Pohl would be dismayed by the lack of follow-through. But his interest and his skills pointed the way to a revolution in medicine which only some few souls are brave enough to follow.

So it is that Freiherr Gustav von Pohl, a man with the interest to follow an idea and to use his skill to explore it, set off a whole new area of medical research. An area which is still largely unexplored and unacknowledged.

The #Divine Database by Doni Shultz

By Ben Sanderson

With The Divine Database, Doni Shultz has opened a door for people to explore the classic process of dowsing as a means of improving and enhancing your current lot in life. In many centuries, past dowsing was employed as a means of divination to discover sources of food, water, shelter, and other means of sustenance. As time wore on, technology replaced dowsing as a process for such discovery. Doni Shultz has not opted to reexamine this classic process and employ it to attain success in life.

In ancient days, a spiritual power was tapped into and this power helped enhance their potential for survival. In many ways, this spiritual power opens the door to attaining a higher level of consciousness. This allows you to ascertain the information you need in order to answer any question in life.

The Divine Database: How to Use Dowsing to Make Wise Choices with Confidence shows displays many of the steps that can be employed to tap into the power of dowsing. Once you have tapped into this power, you will be surprised as how you will be able to deal with the many complex problems and challenges associated with life.

At the most basic level, this process will help restore your mind to a level that is primed for effective function. When you are able to free the mind from various "psychological noise" that can hamper clarity, you will find your mind operates in a much better and easier way.

Once you have achieved such clarity of mind, you have the potential to make it work for you effectively. Those that may have suffered many varied setbacks on their career path will discover that access to The Divine Database may boost their potential to achieve tremendous rewards on the job. There is no longer a reason to feel trapped in a particular job. Doni Shultz has opened pathways that have been closed for centuries. Exploring the theories and techniques put forth in this book/audio series may prove enormously helpful. Actually, the process could prove to be more than helpful. It could prove to be life changing. Certainly, that would be a welcome alternative to whatever position you may currently find yourself.

It is also important to point out that The Divine Database is not just a tome that defines what the process is. Doni Shultz also presents a clear program regarding how to cultivate the process and truly make it work for you. A solid roadmap in this regard is put forth and those willing to follow the roadmap will discover the entire process to be enlightening and rewarding. This is a work that can change your life for the better. All you need to do is put the advice presented in it to practice.

The Divine Database by Doni Shultz truly is a work of inspired brilliance. It presents insight into a process of personal improvement that had previously been lost to history. That alone makes it an intriguing work well worth examining.

Indigo Testing

By Dr. Janine Talty, DO

As the Indigo adults begin to identify themselves based on lists of characteristics found on the Internet and in some printed texts, where can they go to get validation for their suppositions? Who can they ask? How can they verify beyond a reasonable doubt if in fact they qualify to fit in this very narrow classification? Most have felt so ostracized by societal norms, how dare they actually consider they might finally fit into a recognized category. And most importantly, where can they go to find others of the same persuasion?

Finding a test to verify my supposition that I was an Indigo person became both my passion and biggest frustration when I came to suspect that I might be one of these people. How could I truly know for certain? In the metaphysical literature many were repeating a statement that was originally made by Drunvalo Melchizedek that people of this persuasion had upgraded DNA that explained their supernatural traits and abilities. He said these new beings had 26 base pairs of the DNA in the "on" position versus the usual 24 of normal people. As a physician I took his statement to heart but need to scientifically verify it before I could repeat it and perhaps find a simple blood test to test for it. I followed this lead all the way to the Human Genome Project that has been researching DNA characteristics since 1990 in an attempt to identify the 20,000 to 25,000 genes in human DNA but also to determine the sequence of the 3 billion base pairs that make it up. If anyone could verify these statements, they certainly seem capable I thought. I spoke to three different geneticists who had no idea what I was referring to. They needed to know which specific gene I was describing. Not having that specific information my only lead crumbled.

It wasn't until I met Dr. Richard Boylan who has been researching what he calls the Star Kids and Star Seeds for nearly 25 years when I found my conformational tests. He developed a 54 question questionnaire along with a technique using dowsing rods that measures the individual's bio-electromagnetic-photic field. Both combined give a high correlation of accuracy. The technology of dowsing for underground water or buried electrical lines is well accepted. Using the dowsing rods to measure the size and distance of the body's bio-electromagnetic-photic field is not so well known, but very accurate with if performed by a skilled dowser. The questionnaire can be found either on his website; under "star kids questionnaire" at drboylan.com, or in my recently published book Indigo Awakening; A Doctor's Memoir Of Forging An Authentic Life In A Turbulent World.

Dowsing can be easily learned by taking either two pieces of metal wire from a coat hanger or copper wire bent at a 90 degree angle, holding them lightly between your bent index finger and thumb pointed at the individual and simply ask the rods to show you a "yes" (they will separate out laterally) or a "no" (they will come together and cross). Concentration with intension is imperative for this exercise. If your grip is too tight they will not be free to move so it is always more accurate to place the portion of the wire you are holding in drinking straws so they move more freely. Once you have become proficient at communicating with your rods, stand at least 30 feet from the person you are attempting to measure and walk slowly toward them all the while asking the rods to show you the outermost margin of the person's electromagnetic field. When the rods separate to the outside is where you begin your counting the distance away from the individual.

According to Dr. Boylan, a "regular USDA human's" electromagnetic field can be measured 18" - 20" off the body. A Star Kid or Star Seed (Indigo; Blue Ray) is three meters (6 feet) and above. The largest field he has ever measured was an Italian young man at 54 feet. In my practice of physically "derailed" Indigo adults, I commonly find 15 to 22 feet.

How To Use #DowsingRods

By Kum Martin

Dowsing is a technique to divinate water under the ground. This technique originated in Germany in the fifteenth century, and is also referred to as water witching. Nowadays, diviners use dowsing rod to discover water as well as minerals, and buried artifacts and treasures. At times this technique is also used to locate missing people.

There is a belief that all objects, living and inanimate, have a field of energy that gives out vibrations of different frequencies. The dowsing rod works as an antenna and helps to get capture these vibrations. Another theory assumes that there is a psychic link between the dowser and the object being sought.

Dowsing is an esoteric science and hence, is subject to a lot of suspicion as well as skepticism. However, those who believe in it will be happy to hear that Albert Einstein was a believer of this technique.

So, how does one use a dowsing rod? Well, it depends on the kind of rod being used. There are primarily 2 kinds of rod a person can use. One is the L-shaped rod, while the other is a Y-shaped rod. Also, the purpose of both rods is different.

L-shaped rod is used to detect a supernatural presence. In places that have frequent paranormal activities, L-shaped rods are used. This rod is made out of metal, namely copper, and there is a reason behind this. A pair of rods is used for detecting a supernatural being or presence and the rods get attracted to the magnetic field or electric charge that the supernatural being tends to emit.

On the other hand, the Y-shaped rod is used to divinate water or minerals. The Y part of the rod is held in both hands, while the long tail of the Y is held outwards. When the tail reaches the water or mineral source under the ground, it begins to vibrate and thereby the dowser knows that there is something underneath all the soil, mud or rocks.

You maybe surprised to learn that alternative medicine makes using of this technique. Dowsing is used to find out which vertebra is displaced or which organ in the body is diseased. Thereafter, a treatment plan is made. It is also used to find out which substances a person is allergic to.

It is believed that teenagers between the ages of 14 and 16 years are more sensitive and therefore, they make better dowsers compared to adults. You can practice this technique yourself. Remember, you will have to be patient and persevere in order to get results. But the whole experience will be fun and exciting, especially if your rod gives you results very soon.
