The Mystical Art Of Pendulum Divination
Divination, the ancient spiritual practice of seeking knowledge of the future and the unknown through supernatural means, has been an integral part of human history for millennia.
From the casting of lots practiced in various forms by indigenous and aboriginal cultures around the world using bones, stones, shells, and other natural objects, to the Tarot of 15th century Europe, to today’s cyber-divination and AI-powered fortune-telling, various tools have been used to connect with the spirit realm and uncover one’s destiny.
Among these tools, one of the most accessible and easy-to-use traditional methods of divination is the pendulum. The best part is that this simple yet powerful tool is already within reach, tucked away in your jewelry box or craft kit.
A pendulum is simply a weighted object attached to a chain, string, or cord. It can be as elaborate or as simple as you like – a crystal dangling from a silver chain, a beloved piece of jewelry, or even a simple stone tied to a piece of string. The key is to choose an object with some weight to it so that it will swing freely when held aloft.
Pendulum divination is a form of dowsing, a practice that dates back thousands of years and has been used to locate water, minerals, and even lost objects. Dowsing works by tapping into the subconscious mind, which is connected to universal consciousness and the spirit realm. When using a pendulum for divination, you are essentially asking your subconscious to communicate with you through the movements of the pendulum.
A Step-by-Step Guide To Crystal Gazing
Crystal gazing is a psychic practice rooted in ancient traditions. This form of divination, known as “scrying,” isn’t just about predicting what’s to come; it’s a profound tool for gaining insight into your life and understanding deeper truths about yourself.
With patience and practice, anyone can harness the power of a crystal ball to explore the depths of their subconscious and gain valuable perspectives.
Crystal gazing, or scrying, has deep roots in ancient traditions and has been practiced in various cultures throughout history. The use of reflective surfaces for divination can be traced back to ancient civilizations such as the Egyptians and Greeks, who used polished stones and water to gain insight.
The practice gained prominence during the Middle Ages, particularly in Europe, where crystal balls became symbolic tools for seers and alchemists. This psychic art is closely associated with the occult and often linked to the mystical traditions of astrology and prophecy. By the 19th century, scrying had become a popular psychic practice, inspired by the rise of spiritualism and the exploration of psychic abilities.
Among the notable figures in the history of scrying are several renowned psychics and diviners. One of the most famous was Nostradamus, the 16th-century French astrologer and physician known for his prophetic visions, accessed through various divinatory methods, including scrying using a bowl of water.
Enhance Your Spiritual Practice With Rune Yoga
As a professional psychic advisor, my days are filled with interpreting runes, connecting with energies, and guiding others through their life challenges and spiritual journeys.
To restore my own energy, maintain my inner balance, and ensure my holistic well-being, I engage in various spiritual self-care practices that nourish my own mind, body, and soul.
One of my favorite pursuits used to be traditional Indian yoga, until I discovered its Norse-Germanic counterpart known as Rune Yoga, Rune Standing, Rune Stances or Runic Postures.
Rune yoga is an ancient practice that essentially blends the ancient wisdom of the runes with the holistic benefits of similar mind-body traditions such as yoga, tai chi, qigong, pilates, and aikido.
Traditional yoga has always been a sanctuary for me, a place to reconnect with my body and mind.
But as I became so deeply immersed in the world of runes for my work, I found my way to rune yoga as an alternative practice that felt like a natural extension of my interests and professional experience.
Runes are the letters in a set of related alphabets, known as the runic alphabet, that were used to write various Germanic languages before the adoption of the Latin alphabet.
They were used primarily in Northern Europe, Scandinavia, the British Isles, and Iceland from about the 2nd to the 17th centuries. The word “rune” itself comes from the Old Norse word rún, meaning “secret” or “mystery,” underscoring their mystical and symbolic significance in ancient times.
The Subtle Psychic Power Of Flower Essences
Flower essences are one of my favorite spiritual resources. These vibrational imprints of flowers in water, preserved with alcohol, are a powerful tool for personal and spiritual development. They have been used for centuries to promote emotional well-being, balance and healing.
I come from a long line of female herbalists on my mother’s side of the family. They were seers, healers and mystics who combined their psychic gifts with natural healing practices.
That’s why I’ve always been interested in the metaphysical properties of plants, especially herbs and flowers. I love to alchemize them into tinctures, potions and remedies!
The main reason I love flower essences and remedies in particular is that, unlike essential oils and herbal remedies, flower essences are easier and safer to work with on a subtle energy level over the long term, making them particularly effective for enhancing psychic development and spiritual growth.
Flower essences were popularized in the early 20th century by Dr. Edward Bach. He was a British homeopath and bacteriologist who believed that the dew collected from flowers contained the healing properties of the plant. His research led to the creation of the Bach Flower Remedies, a set of 38 essences, each targeting a specific emotional state.
Bach’s remedies were based on the idea that certain flowers have healing properties that can help balance emotional states and promote overall well-being. Dr. Bach believed that emotional and mental states significantly influence physical health, and by addressing negative emotions, one can facilitate healing and prevent illness.
How To Unlock Your Psychic Potential
Many people believe that only a lucky few possess psychic gifts. The truth is that everyone has the potential to develop one or more psychic abilities.
For example, everyone has moments of premonition – whether it’s predicting a phone call or foreseeing the outcome of an event. These intuitive flashes are not mere coincidences, but evidence of our innate psychic awareness.
While it is true that some people are naturally more gifted or talented due to a variety of factors, including genetic predisposition, environmental influences, and personal experiences, everyone can achieve some level of psychic attunement. Just as we all have different talents and potential in music, art or sports, we also have different levels of psychic sensitivity and strength.
Your natural psychic awareness can manifest in many subtle ways that indicates your latent psychic potential. Typical experiences you may have include:
Empathic Sensitivity: You easily pick up on the emotions of others, even when they aren’t explicitly expressed. This deep sense of empathy allows you to feel what others are feeling and to understand their emotions on a deep level.
Energetic Sensitivity: You are very sensitive to the energy of different places. Certain places can feel particularly comforting or unsettling to you, and you can often sense the history or emotional residue in a space.
Using Essential Oils To Enhance Your Psychic Awareness
Essential oils have many esoteric uses beyond traditional aromatherapy. In fact, many experienced spiritual seekers use essential oils in their daily practices. But what is less well known is that these magical oils can also be used to enhance intuition and promote psychic awareness.
Aromatic substances also help increase focus and clarity during meditation, divination, energy healing, and psychic reading. By engaging the sense of smell, you can more effectively anchor your awareness in the present moment, reduce distractions, and promote a state of mindfulness or psychic attunement to open your channels of intuition. I also feel more attuned to subtle energies and spirit presences when I use aromatherapy in my psychic work.
Essential oils are a wonderful spiritual tool that promote relaxation, mental clarity and emotional balance, which in turn creates a conducive environment for exploring your intuition and inner awareness.
Smell is closely linked to the limbic system in the brain, which is associated with emotions, memories, and instinctual responses. When we encounter a particular scent, it can evoke strong emotional or subconscious reactions. In spiritual practices, certain scents can trigger deep-seated feelings or associations, helping to create a particular mental or emotional state conducive to psychic experiences.
Overall, the power of scent and aroma in spiritual and esoteric practices is multifaceted, involving a combination of sensory, psychological, cultural, and symbolic factors. Aromas serve as powerful tools for creating sacred spaces, enhancing psychic experiences, and facilitating inner transformation through their profound influence on the mind, body, and spirit.
The Mystical Properties Of Ancient Amber
Crystals, gemstones, and incense have been widely used in spiritual, esoteric, and healing practices throughout the ages and continue to be popular today.
But there is another type of natural material that does not enjoy the same level of widespread recognition and popularity, despite its unique metaphysical properties and significance in various cultures and mystical traditions.
Resins are less well known and used by modern practitioners. I find that many people are unfamiliar with the various types of resins available and their metaphysical properties.
Compared to crystals, gemstones, and incense, which have gained widespread popularity in recent years, especially through social media and the Internet, resins have received less attention and exposure.
As a result, people may be less likely to encounter resins in their exploration of metaphysical tools and practices.
I also find that people who are at least somewhat familiar with resins tend to associate them with their use as incense. Resins such as frankincense, myrrh, copal, and others are often burned as incense to purify spaces, objects, and individuals. The smoke cleanses negative energies, purifies the aura, and creates a sacred atmosphere for rituals and ceremonies. Continue reading
