Dowsing Decisions

Thought for the Week -

While talking with a friend about her next possible business decision she took out a chain with an inverted cone and said "I'll do a dowse on it". She explained "You ask a question and if it swings clockwise it means Yes, if it swings anticlockwise it's No. She then went through a few short questions and I watched the pendulum swing in the Yes and No directions. I was impressed.

She offered it to me to try but I just jokingly swung it in a circle. I didn't want to upset the inner connection which I use for my own decisions. This is a connection with my inner self or Soul and the Holy Spirit or the Universe, you may have hour own name for it.

I'm not sure how to describe it. It is a combination of intuition, outer messages or waking dreams and 'coincidences' or synchronicity. It's an awareness of what is going on around me at this particular moment. When I have a decision to make I'll watch for messages around me or a hunch or how an option feels. If it feels right and there is a message or an image that confirms this, I'll go with it.

This is not something that I decided to start using one day, it has grown over a number of years. I've tested each element bit by bit and when I found that the direction they lead me was a good one, and brought positive results, then I began to trust it.

How do you make your decisions? I used to use my mind but that was hard work and wasn’t bringing many good results. I picked up a few tips from some friends and then worked on them. One of the methods is called Waking Dreams. It basically involves picking up messages from the world around you. I’ll tell you how I use it and give some examples in next week’s blog.
