WEBVTT 1 00:00:17.320 --> 00:00:20.760 Hello, and welcome to Psychic Teachers. I'm your host. 2 00:00:20.519 --> 00:00:23.839 Samantha Fay, and I'm Deb Bowen, and we're. 3 00:00:23.679 --> 00:00:25.879 Happy to have you join us. This week, we're going 4 00:00:25.920 --> 00:00:29.760 to be talking about psychic tools. Now, in theory, the 5 00:00:29.800 --> 00:00:33.840 only psychic tool you'll ever need is you. Our body mind, 6 00:00:33.920 --> 00:00:36.799 spirit when working in harmony, is the best psychic tool 7 00:00:36.840 --> 00:00:40.280 you can rely on. However, we're also human, and from 8 00:00:40.320 --> 00:00:43.759 time to time we can doubt ourselves, become tired, or 9 00:00:43.920 --> 00:00:46.240 just find out that we're too close to a situation 10 00:00:46.439 --> 00:00:50.159 to get good solid intuitive guidance. This is why learning 11 00:00:50.159 --> 00:00:53.119 a psychic tool or two will be very good for you. 12 00:00:53.840 --> 00:00:55.640 Practice a few of the ones we're going to discuss 13 00:00:55.679 --> 00:00:59.119 this week and see which resonates for you. Now, Deb, 14 00:00:59.399 --> 00:01:02.640 I think you'll agreed that the greatest obstacle to awakening 15 00:01:02.719 --> 00:01:05.120 our intuition is our own self doubt. 16 00:01:05.239 --> 00:01:07.120 Don't you think absolutely? 17 00:01:07.439 --> 00:01:10.840 It's so hard to overcome that nagging voice that says 18 00:01:10.879 --> 00:01:13.400 you're getting this wrong? Who do you think you are? 19 00:01:13.560 --> 00:01:16.599 You can't do this? But utilizing tools to help you 20 00:01:16.719 --> 00:01:19.120 learn to work with your intuition will help you learn 21 00:01:19.200 --> 00:01:22.159 to trust your instincts. I know I've told this story 22 00:01:22.519 --> 00:01:25.000 maybe five hundred times on the show, but I think 23 00:01:25.000 --> 00:01:27.400 it's worth repeating because it's one I think about all 24 00:01:27.439 --> 00:01:30.719 the time. There's an old legend about the god's meeting 25 00:01:30.760 --> 00:01:34.280 to decide where they should hide the wisdom inherent in 26 00:01:34.439 --> 00:01:37.280 all of us humans. They were worried that we would 27 00:01:37.319 --> 00:01:40.760 discover how much power we actually had and would never 28 00:01:40.840 --> 00:01:44.040 need the gods again. So they met and decided to 29 00:01:44.120 --> 00:01:47.000 hide this power. One god wanted to hide it on 30 00:01:47.079 --> 00:01:49.640 top of a mountain, but the others argued that humans 31 00:01:49.640 --> 00:01:52.120 would climb to the top and discover the secrets of 32 00:01:52.159 --> 00:01:55.120 their greatness. Another god wanted to hide it in the 33 00:01:55.159 --> 00:01:58.319 depths of the ocean. Some suggested it should be buried 34 00:01:58.319 --> 00:01:58.840 in a cave. 35 00:01:59.400 --> 00:02:00.439 They read that. 36 00:02:00.480 --> 00:02:04.120 Humans were so smart and curious that they would eventually 37 00:02:04.239 --> 00:02:09.039 find this secret wisdom. Finally, when God said, no, we 38 00:02:09.120 --> 00:02:11.680 will hide it in the heart of man, he will 39 00:02:11.719 --> 00:02:15.280 never look there. And that story always resonates with me 40 00:02:15.439 --> 00:02:18.759 because in all the esoteric studies deb and I have done, 41 00:02:19.520 --> 00:02:23.360 it always comes back to those same two words, know thyself, 42 00:02:24.439 --> 00:02:28.319 It's all inside of us. When you learn to embrace 43 00:02:28.360 --> 00:02:31.879 your intuition and trust the still small voice inside you, 44 00:02:32.039 --> 00:02:35.280 unlock the secrets of your soul. As you start to 45 00:02:35.319 --> 00:02:38.599 embrace your intuition, you will feel more confident and empowered. 46 00:02:39.280 --> 00:02:42.560 And by studying these tools, you'll gradually strengthen your sixth 47 00:02:42.560 --> 00:02:46.879 sense and learn to be your own psychic. So the 48 00:02:46.919 --> 00:02:50.000 first tool we want to talk about is my personal favorite, 49 00:02:50.199 --> 00:02:54.639 which is psychometry. Psychometry is the ability to read an 50 00:02:54.719 --> 00:02:59.280 object connected to someone when we wear or carry something 51 00:02:59.360 --> 00:03:01.879 for a while, really anything. It doesn't have to be 52 00:03:01.919 --> 00:03:04.840 a special piece of cherish jewelry. It can be your car, keys, 53 00:03:04.879 --> 00:03:08.759 your phone, your watch. Our energy attaches to this object. 54 00:03:09.360 --> 00:03:11.800 Many intuitors can hold this object and pick up on 55 00:03:11.919 --> 00:03:15.919 information connected to the wearer. The word is derived from 56 00:03:15.919 --> 00:03:19.639 the Greek words psyche, meaning soul and metron, meaning measure. 57 00:03:20.639 --> 00:03:24.520 Joseph Buchanan coined the term in eighteen forty two. He 58 00:03:24.560 --> 00:03:27.439 conducted an experiment with his students where he placed different 59 00:03:27.520 --> 00:03:30.639 drugs and vials and how the students hold the vials 60 00:03:30.639 --> 00:03:33.680 and identify the drugs based on what they sensed from 61 00:03:33.719 --> 00:03:37.879 simply holding the vials. The success rate was greater than chance. 62 00:03:38.599 --> 00:03:43.199 Buchanan believed all objects had souls which retained memory. In 63 00:03:43.280 --> 00:03:47.520 nineteen nineteen, a German doctor named Gustav Pagantenker discovered that 64 00:03:47.599 --> 00:03:50.680 one of his patients, Maria raised a Zerald, could put 65 00:03:50.680 --> 00:03:53.719 herself into a trance while holding an object and could 66 00:03:53.759 --> 00:03:57.680 tell information about the owner's past, prison and future. Doctor 67 00:03:57.680 --> 00:04:01.280 Paginhiker believed objects held onto the vi vibrations of the wearer, 68 00:04:01.759 --> 00:04:04.840 and this is what the intuitives were reading while holding 69 00:04:04.840 --> 00:04:09.039 the object. Rosemary Allen Giley says information is passed to 70 00:04:09.080 --> 00:04:13.599 the intuitive through vibrations imbued into the objects by emotions 71 00:04:13.639 --> 00:04:17.160 and actions in the past. Now, I think this is 72 00:04:17.199 --> 00:04:19.839 a really cool description of psychometry. It comes from an 73 00:04:19.920 --> 00:04:24.519 article in Mystica where they write the connection between psychometry 74 00:04:24.560 --> 00:04:27.560 and aurs is based on the theory that the human 75 00:04:27.639 --> 00:04:31.600 mind radiates in all directions and around the entire body, 76 00:04:31.959 --> 00:04:36.120 which impresses everything within its orbit. All objects, no matter 77 00:04:36.160 --> 00:04:40.000 how solid they appear, are porous, containing small or even 78 00:04:40.079 --> 00:04:44.079 minute holes. These minute crevices in the object's surface collect 79 00:04:44.279 --> 00:04:47.480 minute fragments of the mental aura of the person possessing 80 00:04:47.519 --> 00:04:51.399 the object. Since the brain generates the aura, then something 81 00:04:51.439 --> 00:04:56.279 worn near the head would transmit better vibrations. Now that's 82 00:04:56.319 --> 00:04:58.560 something I hadn't thought about. Deb To ask for a 83 00:04:58.680 --> 00:05:01.160 necklace as a post to a brace little ring. 84 00:05:01.959 --> 00:05:05.199 That's an interesting comment, Samantha. And when you finish telling 85 00:05:05.279 --> 00:05:07.360 us about this article, I want to tell you a 86 00:05:07.399 --> 00:05:08.839 story about a student of mind. 87 00:05:09.079 --> 00:05:13.519 Okay, this idea that time is a man made concept 88 00:05:14.240 --> 00:05:16.959 really makes us think about psychometry as a psychic tool 89 00:05:16.959 --> 00:05:20.680 in a different way, because if time is simply just 90 00:05:20.839 --> 00:05:24.360 created by us, then it's perceivable that these objects hold 91 00:05:24.480 --> 00:05:29.639 vibrations that are very much alive, Meaning when you use psychometry, 92 00:05:30.040 --> 00:05:33.240 you're able to tap into the past, present, and future. 93 00:05:33.399 --> 00:05:35.959 If you want to try psychometry for yourself, you want 94 00:05:36.000 --> 00:05:39.079 to start by grounding your energy. Then you want to 95 00:05:39.079 --> 00:05:43.240 open your chakras and then spin your energy centers, go 96 00:05:43.279 --> 00:05:46.720 to your meditative place in your mind, and then physically 97 00:05:46.800 --> 00:05:49.639 hold the object to your solar plexus and see what 98 00:05:49.720 --> 00:05:54.800 you feel. Just pay attention to any feelings emotions that 99 00:05:54.879 --> 00:05:58.360 come to mind. You might feel anxious, peaceful at rest. 100 00:05:58.959 --> 00:06:02.680 You might feel happy or sad. You might feel remorseful 101 00:06:02.920 --> 00:06:07.480 or melancholy. Just pay attention to any emotion that floods 102 00:06:07.480 --> 00:06:10.759 through you. Next, you can hold the object near your 103 00:06:10.759 --> 00:06:14.759 throat chakra and see what you intuitively hear. Does a 104 00:06:14.800 --> 00:06:17.480 song pop into your head. Do you hear a saying 105 00:06:17.600 --> 00:06:21.279 your grandma always used to tell you. Finally, bring the 106 00:06:21.319 --> 00:06:24.560 object to your third eye and pay attention to what 107 00:06:24.639 --> 00:06:29.240 you see. Write down any symbols, colors, images, memories that 108 00:06:29.279 --> 00:06:33.800 come to mind. These might be very quick flashes, almost 109 00:06:33.839 --> 00:06:35.959 like trying to catch a dream upon waking. 110 00:06:36.680 --> 00:06:37.680 Write it all down. 111 00:06:38.680 --> 00:06:41.000 Now, if you don't have an object, you can also 112 00:06:41.079 --> 00:06:44.879 have the person sign their name. Our signature holds a 113 00:06:45.040 --> 00:06:48.639 lot of our energy. I think psychometry is one of 114 00:06:48.680 --> 00:06:52.360 the best psychic tools to use because it allows your 115 00:06:52.399 --> 00:06:56.079 brain to focus on holding this object while your intuitive 116 00:06:56.120 --> 00:06:59.879 mind can soar and really become a receptor for it. 117 00:07:00.000 --> 00:07:04.439 Psychic information, absolutely true, and I think psychometry is a 118 00:07:04.480 --> 00:07:08.199 fascinating tool really in so many ways. And what you 119 00:07:08.240 --> 00:07:10.160 point out I think is true. I had a student 120 00:07:10.199 --> 00:07:13.480 some years ago that I was testing with various objects, 121 00:07:13.560 --> 00:07:16.519 and I put in front of her a silver pin 122 00:07:17.360 --> 00:07:21.000 like a lady would wear on her lapel of her jacket. 123 00:07:21.759 --> 00:07:26.759 And I put a bracelet made of yarn that was 124 00:07:26.879 --> 00:07:30.720 popular back in the nineties that they came from Guatemala, 125 00:07:31.000 --> 00:07:33.600 and kids everywhere wore were these bracelets in the nineties. 126 00:07:34.000 --> 00:07:35.839 And I put those two objects in front of her, 127 00:07:35.959 --> 00:07:38.199 and I said, jell me, what comes up. And so 128 00:07:38.439 --> 00:07:41.480 she picked up the pin and she held it and 129 00:07:41.519 --> 00:07:43.920 she did exactly what I had taught her to do, 130 00:07:43.959 --> 00:07:46.480 exactly what you have just suggested to our listeners to do. 131 00:07:47.279 --> 00:07:51.800 And she said, this pen belonged to your mother, and 132 00:07:51.879 --> 00:07:55.040 I can see her, and she told me exactly what 133 00:07:55.079 --> 00:07:58.639 my mom looked like in the days when she wore them. Well, 134 00:07:58.680 --> 00:08:01.399 I'm thinking, okay, ladies don't wear pins like that anymore, 135 00:08:01.480 --> 00:08:04.319 so that might be kind of okay, maybe so. But 136 00:08:04.360 --> 00:08:08.720 she picked up the bracelet and she held it and 137 00:08:08.759 --> 00:08:14.680 she started to cry, and she said the bracelet wasn't 138 00:08:14.759 --> 00:08:18.439 used as a bracelet, It was a collar for your cat, Merlin. 139 00:08:19.720 --> 00:08:20.240 She was right. 140 00:08:21.199 --> 00:08:24.720 I just love that she could do that. That is wonderful, 141 00:08:25.199 --> 00:08:25.759 really was. 142 00:08:26.800 --> 00:08:27.000 You know. 143 00:08:27.040 --> 00:08:30.079 That's why psychometry is so cool, because it not only 144 00:08:30.120 --> 00:08:33.480 links us to the person's energy, but it can link 145 00:08:33.559 --> 00:08:36.480 us to the other side. That was Merlin coming through 146 00:08:36.519 --> 00:08:38.080 to say hello to you. 147 00:08:38.080 --> 00:08:40.080 You bet it, absolutely so. 148 00:08:40.200 --> 00:08:43.000 I just want to add psychometry I think is an 149 00:08:43.080 --> 00:08:44.759 excellent tool for mediums. 150 00:08:45.120 --> 00:08:48.480 Oh yeah, yeah. And what you say about past president 151 00:08:48.600 --> 00:08:51.480 future I think is also absolutely true. I've never tested 152 00:08:51.519 --> 00:08:54.799 it for the future. But I think that's an interesting thought. 153 00:08:55.759 --> 00:08:58.639 So let's move on, Samantha. Let's talk about pendulums because 154 00:08:58.720 --> 00:09:04.320 I love pendulums. Basically, a pendulum is anything that weighs, 155 00:09:04.360 --> 00:09:07.159 something that you put on a string that can move 156 00:09:07.200 --> 00:09:10.960 back and forth. That's really what it is. They've been 157 00:09:11.080 --> 00:09:16.360 used throughout history to find water, gold, treasures, and so 158 00:09:16.519 --> 00:09:19.279 much more. Did you know that during World War II 159 00:09:19.639 --> 00:09:23.639 they were used to locate hidden bombs. Miners in South 160 00:09:23.679 --> 00:09:28.519 Africa use pendulums to find precious metals. I have a 161 00:09:28.519 --> 00:09:30.840 friend who uses a pendulum to tell her what is 162 00:09:30.879 --> 00:09:34.559 the most healthy vegetables in the grocery store. She goes 163 00:09:34.600 --> 00:09:37.519 into our local health food store with her pendulum every week. 164 00:09:38.559 --> 00:09:44.480 How does a pendulum work? Crystal Vault's website says, quite simply, 165 00:09:44.720 --> 00:09:49.320 a pendulum reacts to your subconscious mind. When held properly, 166 00:09:49.720 --> 00:09:53.559 the pendulum will react to very small nerve reactions in 167 00:09:53.600 --> 00:09:57.840 your fingers that are generated by your unconscious mind. In 168 00:09:57.919 --> 00:10:02.279 response to a question that you put Different nerve reactions 169 00:10:02.360 --> 00:10:07.639 will be detected depending on what your subconscious mind knows. Now, 170 00:10:07.679 --> 00:10:10.600 these nerve reactions are transmitted to your fingers from your 171 00:10:10.679 --> 00:10:14.799 unconscious mind and through your fingers to the chain holding 172 00:10:14.799 --> 00:10:20.120 the weight of the pendulum. These tiny nerve transmissions affect 173 00:10:20.200 --> 00:10:23.600 the chain and are then transmitted through the chain to 174 00:10:23.960 --> 00:10:27.799 the weight, causing it to move in some direction. To 175 00:10:27.879 --> 00:10:30.919 debunk a common myth, a pendulum is not moved by 176 00:10:30.919 --> 00:10:35.039 some spirit or by magic. It is moved by your mind, 177 00:10:35.840 --> 00:10:39.519 just the parts you can't normally communicate with very well. 178 00:10:39.600 --> 00:10:43.159 But there is some magic in the process. If we 179 00:10:43.200 --> 00:10:45.840 can figure out how to interpret the signals from the 180 00:10:45.879 --> 00:10:49.759 subconscious mind, we can communicate with it, and it can 181 00:10:49.759 --> 00:10:53.320 tell us things our conscious mind doesn't know, and that's 182 00:10:53.360 --> 00:10:58.039 the magic. Most pendulums found in metaphysical source today are 183 00:10:58.039 --> 00:11:01.440 made from some kind of crystal on a chain. Pendulums 184 00:11:01.480 --> 00:11:07.279 typically give the currant a yes, no, maybe, don't know answer, 185 00:11:08.039 --> 00:11:10.399 and they can be a really good starting point in 186 00:11:10.480 --> 00:11:14.279 working with your intuitive ability. So I know that a 187 00:11:14.320 --> 00:11:18.080 lot of times folks will who want to delve into 188 00:11:18.120 --> 00:11:21.559 the world of intuitive work will begin with a pendulum, 189 00:11:21.600 --> 00:11:25.360 because once you create a relationship with a pendulum, and 190 00:11:25.360 --> 00:11:27.720 I'll talk about that in a minute, you really do 191 00:11:27.799 --> 00:11:30.840 have the good starting point for a good way to 192 00:11:31.000 --> 00:11:36.000 test your connections to information. So here's what you need 193 00:11:36.039 --> 00:11:39.159 to do. Once you get a pendulum, hold it in 194 00:11:39.200 --> 00:11:43.120 your hand. Allow the top three inches or so of 195 00:11:43.159 --> 00:11:46.080 the chain to drape over your fingers as you hold 196 00:11:46.120 --> 00:11:49.279 it dangling between your thumb and your forefinger. A lot 197 00:11:49.320 --> 00:11:52.639 of pendulum chains these days have a little stone sometimes, 198 00:11:52.720 --> 00:11:54.960 or a knot or something that helps you to hold 199 00:11:54.960 --> 00:11:59.360 it steady between your fingers. Ask the pendulum to show 200 00:11:59.399 --> 00:12:03.879 you it's direction that it plans to move in for yes, 201 00:12:04.679 --> 00:12:07.799 and wait for it to move. Let me make another 202 00:12:07.840 --> 00:12:12.360 suggestion here. Before you ask the pendulum its directions, ask 203 00:12:12.440 --> 00:12:15.559 the pendulum if it's willing to work with you. And 204 00:12:15.600 --> 00:12:17.960 I know that may sound like an odd thing to do, 205 00:12:18.360 --> 00:12:22.240 but it's important to at least build begin to build 206 00:12:22.639 --> 00:12:27.600 some kind of an energetic connection with the pendulum, because really, 207 00:12:27.639 --> 00:12:30.480 in some ways you are using psychometry with your own tool. 208 00:12:30.519 --> 00:12:34.720 Gar and I remember when I was buying my first pendulum. 209 00:12:35.399 --> 00:12:37.799 I went to a bunch of pendulums before I found 210 00:12:37.799 --> 00:12:41.320 the one that really felt like it was the right 211 00:12:41.360 --> 00:12:44.320 pendulum for me. And I felt that by the way 212 00:12:44.519 --> 00:12:48.000 it just vibrated a little bit in my hand. So 213 00:12:48.159 --> 00:12:51.679 once I got that squared away, then I moved into 214 00:12:51.879 --> 00:12:54.039 the show me which direction is. Yes. 215 00:12:55.279 --> 00:12:58.639 That's a great suggestion, doub because as you say that, 216 00:12:58.720 --> 00:13:02.039 I'm thinking way back when I was doing my own 217 00:13:02.080 --> 00:13:05.360 intuitive development and my friends and I started the Seekers group. 218 00:13:06.000 --> 00:13:08.360 You know, each month someone would host and present on 219 00:13:08.399 --> 00:13:10.879 a topic. And so one month one of the friends 220 00:13:10.960 --> 00:13:13.279 presented on how to make your own pendulum. So that 221 00:13:13.440 --> 00:13:16.279 was super fun, and she had brought little kits and 222 00:13:16.360 --> 00:13:20.279 we made her own pendulums. I made a hematite pendulum 223 00:13:20.840 --> 00:13:23.799 and that has always worked really well for me with 224 00:13:23.960 --> 00:13:28.360 intuitive guidance, and so then I thought, well, I made 225 00:13:28.440 --> 00:13:30.679 this for myself, and it's hematite, and I have so 226 00:13:30.759 --> 00:13:33.840 much hematite. So then I bought like a fancy chakra 227 00:13:34.360 --> 00:13:36.559 pendulum with all the different crystals and it has a 228 00:13:36.600 --> 00:13:40.399 beautiful amethyst at the bottom, and that one does not 229 00:13:40.519 --> 00:13:44.559 work as well for intuitive guidance. And so finally I said, 230 00:13:45.080 --> 00:13:47.440 are you here to work with me for something else? 231 00:13:48.240 --> 00:13:51.399 And it did its swaying for yes. And so I've 232 00:13:51.480 --> 00:13:55.559 learned that my hematite is good for my intuitive guidance, 233 00:13:55.840 --> 00:13:59.399 and my chakra pendulum is what I use for energy 234 00:13:59.440 --> 00:14:01.759 healing when I do reiki on someone and I'm trying 235 00:14:01.799 --> 00:14:04.919 to figure out which chakras are blocked or open or 236 00:14:04.960 --> 00:14:07.559 need work on. So that's a really good point. Some 237 00:14:07.600 --> 00:14:11.080 pendulums do want to work with you, some maybe don't 238 00:14:11.120 --> 00:14:13.799 resonate with you, and others will want to work with 239 00:14:13.840 --> 00:14:16.799 you for different reasons, either intuition or healing. 240 00:14:17.480 --> 00:14:20.039 True, absolutely, and you know it does not need to 241 00:14:20.080 --> 00:14:22.440 be a fancy half dollar crystal. You can put a 242 00:14:22.480 --> 00:14:25.639 safety pin on a string and you've got a pendulum. 243 00:14:25.679 --> 00:14:28.440 Well, yeah, what's the old trick when you're pregnant and 244 00:14:28.519 --> 00:14:31.000 you put what is it a button on the end 245 00:14:31.000 --> 00:14:33.159 of a string and you hold it over a woman's womb. 246 00:14:33.519 --> 00:14:35.480 Maybe it is a button. I can't remember, but yes, 247 00:14:35.559 --> 00:14:39.559 I mean good golic, So lots of things anyway, So Samantha, 248 00:14:39.919 --> 00:14:43.279 let's assume that you've got your pendulum, and you want 249 00:14:43.320 --> 00:14:47.799 to begin to really communicate with your pendulum, because in 250 00:14:47.799 --> 00:14:51.080 many ways, working with a pendulum is working with your 251 00:14:51.120 --> 00:14:55.720 own energy field and your own psychometry basically. So you 252 00:14:55.720 --> 00:14:59.559 want to hold it in your hand loosely gently. Most 253 00:14:59.600 --> 00:15:02.320 pendulum these days that I've seen have a little beat 254 00:15:02.360 --> 00:15:05.799 at the top or another stone that fits between your fingers, 255 00:15:05.799 --> 00:15:07.639 so that you've got a nice way to hold it 256 00:15:07.879 --> 00:15:10.240 and you want to ask your pendulum to show you 257 00:15:10.639 --> 00:15:14.159 its direction that it will move to indicate yes for 258 00:15:14.240 --> 00:15:17.440 an answer, and to show you no, and to show 259 00:15:17.480 --> 00:15:21.320 you I don't know or maybe, and ask the pendulum 260 00:15:21.360 --> 00:15:25.519 to be consistent with that. Consistency with the pendulum is 261 00:15:25.519 --> 00:15:28.720 one of the most important aspects of working with a 262 00:15:28.840 --> 00:15:33.399 pendulum is that you know that every time that pendulum 263 00:15:33.440 --> 00:15:36.559 moves in a particular direction that is a yes answer 264 00:15:36.759 --> 00:15:40.240 or a no answer or whatever. For example, my pendulum 265 00:15:40.360 --> 00:15:43.600 moves back and forth right to left for noe. It 266 00:15:43.639 --> 00:15:48.159 moves in a circle for yes, and it moves and 267 00:15:48.200 --> 00:15:50.679 you would think this would be counterintuitive, but it moves 268 00:15:50.879 --> 00:15:53.799 backwards and forwards, away from me and towards me for 269 00:15:54.159 --> 00:15:55.399 I don't know or maybe. 270 00:15:55.720 --> 00:16:00.279 See that's important because mine goes love to write for no, 271 00:16:00.639 --> 00:16:02.840 it goes back and forth for yes, and then it 272 00:16:02.960 --> 00:16:05.080 just bounces on the end of the chain for I 273 00:16:05.080 --> 00:16:06.080 don't know or maybe. 274 00:16:07.120 --> 00:16:10.320 Isn't that interesting? But there's a fourth possibility. And I 275 00:16:10.399 --> 00:16:17.279 learned this in stone Hinge. I held my pendulum. This 276 00:16:17.320 --> 00:16:18.600 is one of the things I wanted to do for 277 00:16:18.679 --> 00:16:22.440 so many years. When I went to Stonehenge, I took 278 00:16:22.480 --> 00:16:26.399 off my shoes before I entered that circle, and I 279 00:16:26.600 --> 00:16:30.000 stood at the Kingstone in the center of Stonehenge. I 280 00:16:30.039 --> 00:16:34.480 held my pendulum over that stone and it vibrated in 281 00:16:34.559 --> 00:16:37.240 my hand. I can't even describe it to you. It 282 00:16:37.279 --> 00:16:40.879 was this amazing fast vibration and I thought, Wow, I 283 00:16:41.000 --> 00:16:46.039 wonder what this is about. What I learned was that 284 00:16:46.039 --> 00:16:50.440 that's what pendulums typically do when placed over lay lines. 285 00:16:50.759 --> 00:16:53.039 So I found that to be true at Stone Hinge. 286 00:16:53.279 --> 00:16:56.240 I found it to be true over the high altar 287 00:16:56.360 --> 00:17:00.240 at Glastonbury Abbey and some other places in London where 288 00:17:00.399 --> 00:17:04.759 lay lines had run through. What's important is that you 289 00:17:05.079 --> 00:17:09.400 build that relationship of the answers with your pendulum, and 290 00:17:09.440 --> 00:17:12.079 you can test it, test it. Ask it questions you 291 00:17:12.200 --> 00:17:16.839 know the answer to, and ask it false questions. You know, 292 00:17:17.039 --> 00:17:21.240 is my name Mary for example, if your name is Jane, 293 00:17:21.319 --> 00:17:24.119 and see what it does? Or is the sky yellow? 294 00:17:25.000 --> 00:17:29.759 Pay attention to setting out your intent with the pendulum 295 00:17:29.960 --> 00:17:33.680 and the movements that your pendulum will make. If your 296 00:17:33.680 --> 00:17:39.119 pendulum really swings quickly and widely, for example, and different 297 00:17:39.160 --> 00:17:42.519 than it normally does, it indicates sometimes that there is 298 00:17:42.559 --> 00:17:47.039 a strong energy around the question you've asked. And sometimes 299 00:17:47.079 --> 00:17:51.119 if it moves just a little, it indicates waning energy 300 00:17:51.680 --> 00:17:56.000 or that the answer could change. So just know that 301 00:17:56.079 --> 00:17:59.960 there are nuances to the answers that you may get 302 00:18:00.079 --> 00:18:03.920 from your pendulum. And if you are using your pendulum 303 00:18:04.000 --> 00:18:07.359 for yes no answers, that's great and that's a good 304 00:18:07.359 --> 00:18:11.039 way to start. You can also began, as you mentioned earlier, 305 00:18:11.440 --> 00:18:15.359 use your pendulum to help you see and it literally 306 00:18:15.400 --> 00:18:19.519 you can see blocked chakras and what you might want 307 00:18:19.559 --> 00:18:23.160 to do for them. You can use charts. I've seen 308 00:18:23.400 --> 00:18:27.599 great charts of how pendulums will help you to differentiate 309 00:18:27.880 --> 00:18:31.640 the nuances of answers, many things that you can do 310 00:18:31.680 --> 00:18:33.799 if you're interested in learning more and looking at some 311 00:18:33.880 --> 00:18:37.759 of those charts. La at crystal inks has some great 312 00:18:37.799 --> 00:18:42.279 information on that, and that's crystalinks dot com slash pendulum. 313 00:18:43.160 --> 00:18:45.680 We're just touching the tip of the iceberg here. I mean, 314 00:18:45.720 --> 00:18:48.920 there are whole books, you know that are been written 315 00:18:48.920 --> 00:18:51.359 on each of these psychic tools. So we hope this 316 00:18:51.440 --> 00:18:53.880 inspires you to dive and do some more research on 317 00:18:53.920 --> 00:18:58.240 your own. People have used pendulums to find people, to 318 00:18:58.359 --> 00:19:01.960 find locations, to find all sorts of cool things. So 319 00:19:02.039 --> 00:19:05.039 you can hold a pendulum over a map. You can 320 00:19:05.079 --> 00:19:07.839 create your own chart where you right, yes, no, maybe 321 00:19:08.000 --> 00:19:11.279 or not now and hold the pendulum over that. There's 322 00:19:11.359 --> 00:19:13.759 so many different things you can do. And let's take 323 00:19:13.799 --> 00:19:16.400 a quick break and then we'll talk about another one 324 00:19:16.440 --> 00:19:18.359 of my favorite psychic tools, crystals. 325 00:19:20.559 --> 00:19:23.720 Hi, everybody, I wanted to let you know that I 326 00:19:23.759 --> 00:19:26.799 am working on some new courses coming up in the 327 00:19:26.839 --> 00:19:30.400 near future, but in the meantime, I'm also offering some 328 00:19:30.440 --> 00:19:33.640 other things that you might be interested in. For example, 329 00:19:33.759 --> 00:19:38.200 on my website you can find links to numerology reports, 330 00:19:38.880 --> 00:19:43.039 animal guide reports, and e booklets about guarding with the 331 00:19:43.079 --> 00:19:46.559 Spirit of the Plant Kingdom, with working with moon energy, 332 00:19:47.039 --> 00:19:50.559 working with the major arcana, and crystals. So take a 333 00:19:50.599 --> 00:19:54.039 look at my website step Bowen dot com. And while 334 00:19:54.039 --> 00:19:56.799 you're there on my website, i'd love it if you 335 00:19:56.920 --> 00:20:01.079 subscribe to my free substack and visit with Merlin's picture 336 00:20:01.200 --> 00:20:04.440 on my website homepage. I think you'll like looking at him. 337 00:20:04.920 --> 00:20:08.000 Stepbowen dot com. Thanks so much, everybody. 338 00:20:11.799 --> 00:20:15.640 Let's get into our next crystal tool. Okay, So, crystals 339 00:20:15.680 --> 00:20:18.119 are not only a gift from the Earth that can 340 00:20:18.160 --> 00:20:21.160 help us increase our vibrations and open our third eye 341 00:20:21.200 --> 00:20:24.960 and protect our spiritual energy plus charge up our whole 342 00:20:25.000 --> 00:20:28.359 room and house with positive vibes. They can also help 343 00:20:28.440 --> 00:20:31.599 us with our intuition. Crystals have been used throughout the 344 00:20:31.680 --> 00:20:35.720 ages as talismans for protection, adornments and temples, and symbols 345 00:20:35.720 --> 00:20:38.720 of loyalty and love. We all know they're used in 346 00:20:38.759 --> 00:20:41.559 watches and computers, but they can also be used to 347 00:20:41.640 --> 00:20:46.359 jumpstart your psychic ability. Crystals work within our oric field 348 00:20:46.480 --> 00:20:50.160 and serve as a conduit for energy flow, So you 349 00:20:50.200 --> 00:20:55.440 can use crystals to enhance your meditation to awaken your 350 00:20:55.519 --> 00:20:58.640 third eye. Think about it this way. This is how 351 00:20:58.680 --> 00:21:01.920 I like to explain crystals. A crystal vibrates at a 352 00:21:01.960 --> 00:21:05.039 fixed rate. So let's just make up a scale of 353 00:21:05.160 --> 00:21:08.039 zero to ten. So let's say a rose quartz always 354 00:21:08.119 --> 00:21:11.400 vibrates at a seven, and let's say a cid trene 355 00:21:11.480 --> 00:21:14.000 always vibrates at an eight. I'm making these up, but 356 00:21:14.200 --> 00:21:17.359 just for example, they vibrate at a fixed rate. It 357 00:21:17.440 --> 00:21:21.160 never changes. We, on the other hand, we vibrate at 358 00:21:21.200 --> 00:21:24.200 all sorts of different rates. We might wake up vibrating 359 00:21:24.240 --> 00:21:26.480 at an eight. This is going to be a great day. 360 00:21:26.519 --> 00:21:29.559 Everything's fine, and when we go to bed, we might 361 00:21:29.599 --> 00:21:33.480 be vibrating at a two because life happens and our 362 00:21:33.640 --> 00:21:37.640 energy goes up and it goes down when in science 363 00:21:37.640 --> 00:21:41.640 has proven this. When we are within the energetic vibration 364 00:21:41.839 --> 00:21:46.920 of a crystal, our vibrations and the crystals vibrations meet 365 00:21:47.000 --> 00:21:52.440 and connect and the crystal harmonizes our vibration to match 366 00:21:52.519 --> 00:21:56.000 its own. Isn't that cool? I mean, that's how amazing 367 00:21:56.039 --> 00:21:58.799 crystals are. So if you're feeling low, you can go 368 00:21:58.880 --> 00:22:02.880 to a high vibrational like clear quartz and pull your 369 00:22:03.000 --> 00:22:06.240 energy up. If you're feeling way too up and you 370 00:22:06.279 --> 00:22:08.680 need to ground yourself, you can go to a jasper 371 00:22:08.799 --> 00:22:13.359 or heematite and balance your energy out. So crystals can 372 00:22:13.400 --> 00:22:17.079 do so much for us. When we wear or carry 373 00:22:17.119 --> 00:22:21.599 crystals with us, they are sinking our energetic fields and 374 00:22:21.799 --> 00:22:25.279 helping us to awaken our intuition. So there are several 375 00:22:25.319 --> 00:22:29.160 ways you can use crystals to enhance your intuition. One 376 00:22:29.279 --> 00:22:32.240 I think that most people think about is crystal scrying. 377 00:22:33.279 --> 00:22:37.160 This is an ancient technique that goes back five thousand years. 378 00:22:37.759 --> 00:22:42.039 It involves staring into a crystal, allowing one to access 379 00:22:42.079 --> 00:22:46.519 the unconscious mind and higher levels of intuition. Queen Elizabeth 380 00:22:46.559 --> 00:22:50.599 the first astrologer John d He used an obsidian for scrying. 381 00:22:51.160 --> 00:22:53.400 Gene Dixon, who we've talked about on the show. Also, 382 00:22:54.079 --> 00:22:57.599 she's the one who's famous for predicting John F. Kennedy's assassination. 383 00:22:58.440 --> 00:23:02.240 She used a crystal ball to get her scrying psychic information. 384 00:23:03.400 --> 00:23:06.920 So scrying involves the act of relaxing your mind so 385 00:23:06.960 --> 00:23:10.359 that you can connect with your intuitive guidance. The word 386 00:23:10.440 --> 00:23:13.279 comes from the Old English to scry, which means to 387 00:23:13.359 --> 00:23:17.400 reveal mystics. Throughout the ages have used water or crystals 388 00:23:17.400 --> 00:23:20.839 to practice crying. No Sardamis used a bowl of water 389 00:23:20.960 --> 00:23:25.119 to see his visions. Scrying allows the conscious mind to 390 00:23:25.160 --> 00:23:28.279 relax that you can get into a deeper, more trance 391 00:23:28.440 --> 00:23:31.839 like state. When I first learned about scrying, I thought 392 00:23:31.839 --> 00:23:34.640 the images and visions would appear in the crystal. 393 00:23:34.240 --> 00:23:35.640 Ball or the bowl of water. 394 00:23:36.359 --> 00:23:39.920 But what actually happens is that the images, information, and 395 00:23:40.039 --> 00:23:44.240 messages appear in your mind's eye. The act of scrying 396 00:23:44.279 --> 00:23:48.200 is simply to allow your monkey mind, your overthinking, anxious, 397 00:23:48.319 --> 00:23:50.480 go go go mind, to relax so that you can 398 00:23:50.559 --> 00:23:53.839 tap into your super conscious or higher self for guidance 399 00:23:53.880 --> 00:23:57.720 and information. So if you'd like to try scrying, you 400 00:23:57.799 --> 00:24:00.920 can either fill a shallow bowl with water or look 401 00:24:00.960 --> 00:24:03.640
