Hi Angie
I started with ideomotoric signaling in hypnosis, which may be why I believe it is consious/subconsious communication. Some people give it other explanations...

If you want to learn, there are dowsing groups you could join, but there is also a cute little book called "the pendulum kit" available at new age and alternative bookstores. It is a reasonable way to explore the art. (I often use a necklace or even a rubber band with a paperclip on it!) Almost anything will do, but the little book can give you training and guidance on structuring questions and calibrating responses.

A popular game among women is to dangle a threaded needle over a pregnant friends abdomen, and ask if it is a boy or girl...they get mixed results, because they don't practice seriously, but it is still dowsing!

Hey uniquesoul..
How is your tooth? What ever happened?
Hope it is all better now...
