Dowsing talent runs in my family, back beyond my birth. My grandmother "witched" a well for drinking water on their farm, which served the family of nine kids plus a couple dozen next generation grandkids - and it's probably still working today, although when I was in my teens, it was starting to get a bit sulphurish. My grandfather used a willow bow to find oil on their property - a well that pumped for about 25 years. That's how I knew that it was possible to do this.
When living in Northern Ontario, about 10 miles outside of Sudbury, we had purchased a new home, with a drilled well. A year after moving in, we had to install a filtration device to filter out the sand, and eventually, it couldn't keep up with the sand. We hired someone to come and dig another well - they started to go down and hit bedrock in several points.
Thinking of the idea of "witching" out a well, since my grandmother had such success, but lacking the willow branches, I decided to go "high tech" and used two coat-hangers, which I straightened, except for a handle for each, and dipped the ends in some water. Then I systematically started moving across our front yard. About 10 feet from where the well contractor was attempting to dig, the wands went crazy, moving back and forth across one another. Since he appeared to only be guessing at where to go down next (with each drilling making a bigger mess of my lawn
), I insisted he poke down where the wands indicated.
The next day we had our well, with lots of really nice water - just a touch of sulphur to sweeten it. In the next week, 5 of our neighbours, who had also been experiencing water woes, also had new wells. I tramped the entire neighbourhood and mapped the underground water source.
About 11 years ago, while living in Windsor for a while, I had problems sleeping in a certain room and felt this might have something to do with water running under the property. I used the same technique as above to find out (and later had confirmed from old maps) that the house was built over an underground stream. By placing magnets on the underside of the bed, I was able to counteract the bad energy flow, and finally got a good nights rest. Unforunately, because my mother occasionally sleeps in that bed, and she having a pace-maker, I had to remove the magnets - so now when I visit, I end up with a back-ache again.
I've also used a pendulum with a map to find my son's stolen car in Toronto. He called from Windsor to say it had been stolen while parked in the home driveway - the keys were in it because he had just unloaded some purchases and had intended to move it immediately, so had left it running, with an "acquaintance" sitting in the front seat. The kid took off with the car, and later called to say he needed it to get to Toronto to see his girlfriend. Because he knew who had stolen it, my son had a general idea of where it might be, although no specific address. I plumbed the map with my pendulum and got an initial "hit", so re-drew the area in a more close-up fashion a couple of times, with subsequent smaller areas enlarged (this was before internet and google-maps - 1986
), and when I was reasonably sure, grabbed a friend and drove clear across Toronto to the area. We found the car in less than half an hour, found a police officer to assist us, and the kid who "borrowed" it surrendered the keys when he saw that we had found the car. The constable had a bit of a time wrapping his head around just how I had managed to find the car.
I use a pendulum to help determine hypnotizability of some of my clients. I find those who have a strong affinity for allowing the plumb to operate without pushing the results are the best subjects for somnambulism, and getting quick results from hypnotic suggestion.
Cheers!
