In the spiritual field we hear such terms as good and evil, light and dark, positive and negative. These define the dual aspects of energy with more emphasis put on the minus side than on the positive. To me this often puts one in a mode of emotional fear of those sides of the energy field we find displeasing. What we have a hard time with is realizing that energy is, after all, energy. I have come to view these as discordant energies. That is to say those dual aspects in which we see energy is unbalanced. They have become conflicting, incompatible, or disagreeing in their nature, or simply not in accord with one another.

Viewing energy in this manner removes the fear factor and moves it to the clearing or balancing stage.

Our purpose then, in dowsing, is to find this discordant energy on ones self or ones environment and to bring it to its proper balance. Since we are using the pendulum, let’s begin with the basic protocol for determining permission to use your pendulum.

The yes or no response, and the clearing and energizing direction. You need first to determine yes/no, forward/backwards, or side to side. For clearing, the pendulum should circle counterclockwise, and when energizing it should rotate clockwise, or sunwise. When you have these set you are ready to begin. Asking the May I, Should I, Can I questions will determine if you can do this with the pendulum.

Since we are in the process of clearing the environment – whether a room, house, or land – it would be advisable to begin this preparation by checking and or balancing yourself. When you have asked the proper questions about yourself and then corrected and balanced those energies, you are ready to begin working in the outer environment, your room, your house, your land, etc.

Questions you may ask are as follows:

• Are there any discordant energies in this room? Determine what they are.
• Are they stagnant or blocked energies?
• Are they entities or attachments to the furniture?
• Are they portals? Vortices, doorways, or gateways, etc.
• Are they serving a purpose? Can they be sealed, or closed?
• Can they be placed in a protective energy so that they won’t interfere?
• Is there ghost or other dimensional entities present?
• Are they causing problems?
• Do they need assistance to move on?
