Mystical Techniques: Pendulums

A pendulum is a simple tool to create- a cord or chain with usually a crystal attached to the end. This divination tool is usually focused on yes/no questions. If the pendulum is made by the user it typically increases the bond between tool and user. There are two different variations to how they are typically read. The clockwise/counter clockwise and back-and-forth style.

How it is used:

Hold it gently within your hand, typically between your fingers so the pendulum and cord can dangle freely.

Focus your energy down the cord to build a connection. It is important to program it before you ask any questions. Some people use the clockwise/counter clockwise style with back or forth direction as a maybe.

Back and forth in a vertical direction means yes, side to side for no, clockwise for maybe.

For both variations, the pendulum standing still means no answer.

You can practice a few times to get the hang of it.

Empty your mind and focus on a yes/no question (for example: Will I have a good day today?)

Watch the direction of the pendulum’s turn.

An example of the clockwise/counter clockwise version:

Will I have a good day today? Turns clockwise. Yes, I will have a good day today!

Please note: Pendulums tend to follow your energy, if you are emotionally invested in the answer it will give you the answer you want. Remember to stay objective when working with your pendulum.

It is believed that placing dream catchers above the place where you sleep will catch your nightmares and will bring good dreams to you. An Objibwe legend speaks of the origin of the dreamcatcher that is associated with the Spider Woman, known as Asibikaashi: Asibikaashi took care of the children and the people, as the Ojibwe Nation spread to North America it became difficult for her to reach all of the children. So the mothers and grandmothers began to weave magical webs for the children and the infants. These were originally made from willow hoops and sinew, or cordage from plants. Eventually the “spider webs” were made of fine yarns and nettle fiber. These dream catchers were said to “catch any harm that might be in the air as a spider web catches and holds whatever comes in contact with...

Creature of the Month: Barbegazi

"Frozen Beards" Can be found: High mountainous regions of France and Switzerland Description: These Gnome-like creatures are known for their icicle coated beards and white fur garments. Their names are Swiss for “frozen beards”. Their large feet enable them to ski or use snow shoes. They are also quite useful for digging- out of avalanches or to conceal themselves within the thick snowy regions. They live in networks of caves and tunnels. Little is known about their lifestyle and tend to appear only when blizzards or freezing temperatures have forced mountaineers from the higher altitudes. Their attitude towards humans is friendly and helpful but credit is usually given to St Bernard Dogs or other rescue canines.They give warnings of avalanches by whistling or hooting.
