Using a pendulum can be a helpful way to tap into your intuition and receive guidance on questions or decisions. To use the 16 Stage Waterdrop Pendulum, hold the chain or cord between your thumb and forefinger, allowing the crystal or gemstone to hang freely. Begin by asking a yes or no question, and observe the direction that the pendulum swings in response. You may find that it swings back and forth, side to side, or in a circular motion. Over time, you may develop your own personal system for interpreting the movements of the pendulum.
