Pendulums can aid in psychic development by offering a way to 'double check' the messages you get, or as an oracle for communicating with your Higher Sources.

Hold it still in your hands dangling the heavier end while asking for help from your Teachers and Guides. Ask first to confirm your first name. When the pendulum begins to circle in the clock-wise direction, you have an affirmative answer. Ask other yes-no questions you know the answer to in order to establish a base when you are first getting started.

Then ask your Guides any question at all once you get a bit of practice behind you.
