Common questions

How do I use a pendulum?

Hold the chain between your thumb and forefinger and keep your arm steady. First ask it to show you 'yes' and 'no' (often a circle or a back-and-forth swing), then ask clear yes-or-no questions. Dowsing is a spiritual and reflective practice.

What is black obsidian associated with?

In crystal traditions, black obsidian is associated with protection, reflection, and grounding. This is spiritual tradition, not a medical claim.

How do I cleanse a pendulum?

Rinse black obsidian briefly under lukewarm water and pat it dry; many people also cleanse crystals with incense or sage smoke, the sound of a singing bowl, or an evening of moonlight.
