Dowsing is one of the oldest ways of establishing answers to all those questions. Let's look at the phenomenon of Dowsing – the science and art of searching for....

We all know that everything is created of energy and energy is vibration. Being so then, everything has its own frequency, wavelength and is measurable and detectable. How? To simplify this process we can say that when you ask a question an electrical impulse is being sent to your brain. In response, compatible wavelength is created and another electrical impulse is sent back. That kind of impulses creates a micro-constriction of muscles, which push energy down along your arm and underarm to finally reach the string of your pendulum. If the pendulum is held in proper manner, which means, on the proper distance called “personal wavelength”, it creates leverage which is able to move the pendulum. Since “positive” or “negative” state of our energetic system is represented by different amount of energy, we observe also two totally different movements of pendulum.

The principle of recognizing different level of energy in regards to one's state of mind or attitude is nowadays quite popular, well-known and used by such a techniques like: Kinesiology (Muscle Testing), and Polarity to mention just two. Originally however, it has been known and used in Dowsing for millennium.

Dowsing was practiced as far back as 4,000 years B.C. In ancient cultures such as the Hebrews, Egyptians and Chinese would traditionally used dowsers (called Geomancers at that time) to find the best location for their houses, to heal a sick body and soul or to help with any decision making process.

In Europe, dowsing is called Radiesthesia. The term "Radiesthesia” has been derived from the Latin word “radius” - ray, and the Greek “aesthesis” – sensitivity. It describes the sensitivity to different kind of radiations or vibrations and our ability to search for it.

Over 90% of population today has high enough sensitivity to become a successful Dowser (in the1970’s only 75% of population had this ability). This rapid increase of potentiality has a lot to do with energetic changes in Earth's own energetic field, what most of us recognize as a “Spiritual Awakening”. It does not matter if you are able to move pendulum from the very beginning or if you will need time - it is only a matter of right practice.
The majority of today's Science of Dowsing came from many dedicated European (mostly French) Physicists and Egyptologists. Their outstanding work on vibrations, colors and frequencies proved that by using simply tools one can achieve amazing effects. Andre de Belizal and Leo Chaumery spent time in Egypt researching the phenomenon of pyramids, the Sphinx, thumbs of the Pharos and other ancient structures dicovering the emmisions of energy from those forms. To do that they developed simple but extremely precise instruments based on Sacred Geometry. Along with shapes found inside the Great Pyramid and King's Valley they established a set of tools known today as “Egyptian Pendulums ” or “Healing Pendulums ” due to their extraordinary power generation ability.

At the same time in Europe, a substantial amount of work was being done on Remote Dowsing , called Teleradiesthesia (fr. Abbe Mermet, Enel, Leo Turrenne), where new tools were developed to increase the accuracy of readings and skill enhancement.

Dowsing has been known in Europe for many centuries; due to this Dowsers developed very precise and effective ways to approach not only environmental but also medical problems with time. Along with research done on reshaping and broaden the variety of tools European Dowsers enhanced health assessment methodologies which enable us today to measure not only the state of health, but also the probability of successful treatments. We also have more and more pendulums, which posses healing abilities. Kirlian Photography supports this thesis.

Unfortunately, most of today’s New Age teachings of the different disciplines of Metaphysics do not present a deep enough knowledge about the history of shapes, their evolution, and their vibrational influence on the human energetic system and the process of Creation. Therefore, students wander from one course to another trying their best to put all the puzzles together. So, let's stress it again –dowsing is mostly portrayed as a guessing game depending on prayer and faith, however real Dowsing has nothing in common with it. Dowsing is deeply spiritual and science-based. It is a precise technique allowing the inquirer to get precise answers to questions of either tangible or intangible nature.

What is the Spiritual aspect of Dowsing? How can we check it out? To answer this question we should recall the research done by the University of Vermont on the frequencies of human brain during sleep, different meditation techniques and dowsing. It proved that during any type of activity brain function on one level only (either alpha, beta, theta or delta). ONLY during the process of dowsing brain uses all 4 levels in this same time! In another words it means that when we dowse we search for the answer on all levels of our existence – from conscious level to deeply subconscious levels! Due to this advanced process our pendulum can simply recognizes the Energy of the Source in us.

In conclusion, dowsing has enriched people's lives in so many ways.
To mention just a few it can:
• Answer questions
• Clear the environment
• Find lost objects, minerals, water, etc.
• Changing non-beneficial energies into beneficial once
• Assess health
• Evaluate relationships
• Remove emotional trauma
• Check compatibility with objects, supplements, people, etc.

Dowsing changes peoples lives by teaching them to:
• Think straight
• Formulate their thoughts,
• Be truthful with one’s self.

Will YOU dare to open the door?
