Black Tourmaline Pendulum, 6-Sided

Hold it still, ask a clear question, and watch which way it swings.

Hold it over the center of a pendulum board or mat and let it move toward an answer. A board helps when you're new or still learning to trust your answers.

After you draw, ask it to confirm your read of a card.

Move it slowly over a map and watch where the swing changes.

Ask it which day, candle or ingredient fits a working.

Hold it over each chakra and watch how it moves.

Let it circle in each corner of a room to help clear stuck energy.

Watch the swing to settle your attention before you meditate.

Add a pendulum board or mat so it's ready to use.

Drape the chain over the pointer finger of your receptive hand and hold it with your thumb. Ask a few questions you already know the answers to, like "Is the wall in front of me white?", and watch how it swings for yes, no and maybe that day. Our pendulum guide walks through it step by step.

Cleanse it the way you cleanse crystals. Smoke and sound are safe for any pendulum, so check the guide before you use water. Hang it on a small hook or necklace stand so the chain doesn't tangle.
