Using dowsing rods as a tool

[fireflydancing]

I wonder if other people use dowsing rods to confirm or dismiss memories from past lives.

I recently bought a pair of dowsing rods. I was motivated by my mother's passing this summer. I thought it was a way to keep in contact with her. From there I experimented with all kinds of energies willing to talk with me through the rods.
It's fascinating to do.

The biggest problem is that traditionally there are only 'yes' and 'no' answers. You hold a copper rod in each hand and they move in a certain way to say 'yes-no'. It is not easy to get a 'why' answer.

In a meditative state, I went through possible past life memories, and a lot of information got confirmed but not all. There is also telepathy involved because of the sudden inspiration to ask certain questions. Which creates AHA moments.

What are your experiences in this field? Do you trust the answers? Sometimes they are strange but not impossible. I hardly had any contradicting answers, even if the same question was asked in different sessions.

I think that's great firefly! I don't have experience using these tools but if I knew you in person I'd love to try them together. Maybe, if I ever come across them, I could try. The big take-away for me, looking in, is the level of stillness and sensing you are able to achieve creating those AHA moments. Becoming aware of that relationship, the guiding Intelligence, that's the biggest discovery. I think this intuitive-styled system is similar for people who practice tarot, iChing, etc.

The tools are just that, but recognizing and growing with the driving forces behind the tools is where the money is at.

I think this would be fun for you too, Cloud Potato. You don't have to invest money to make some dowsing rods. It's not difficult to find some tutorials online to make yourself a pair. Or order some for cheap on Amazon or another webshop.

And you are right to compare it to other practices like tarot etc. I think using dowsing rods is the most elemental form to communicate because of the limited possibilities. For now, I use the rods for relatively simple (binary) questions and to get to know the different types of energies willing to communicate with me.

I already tried a new path. First establishing contact and affirmation about the energy communicating with me and followed with a meditative state in which the communication continues. That was amazing. An unexpected plot twist happened.

Edit: The last sentence sounds too weird for the last sentence of a post. I'll explain it. I went into meditation and instead of me asking questions to this energy, I was asked questions instead. Like: what things in your life made you proud of yourself? And I sank into long-lost memories of my entire life. Almost like a life review after death, but of course, I am still alive. I remembered so many incidences, so many people I hadn't thought about in years, remembered their names, faces, and situations.
In daily life, my memory is bad. I was excited to jump into my own past and relive endless scenes starting from a very young age (this life).

I believe that, when inquiring for knowledge and guidance, you have to firstly consciously put aside all your beliefs, expectations, feelings, in order to reduce the distortions of what you get. You have to firstly completely "empty your cup" to make room for it to be refilled.

Hi Firefly,

Dowsing is most like the use of a pendulum in being very simple to do and giving primarily yes/no answers. Usually with the pendulum it is clockwise or counterclockwise, with one being "yes" and the other being "no". Some say that a third alternative "maybe" is available with the pendulum when a back-and-forth motion is executed. As I recall, Brian Stalin is very big on dowsing/pendulum use, considering this to be more reliable than hypnotic regression. One of our long-time members (KenJ) also believed in dowsing, though I don't think he used it for PL explorations.

Cordially,
S&S

True. However, your confusion might become extremely high at a certain point. Well, that happens to me. I use the dowsing rods as a way of channeling highly evolved spirits.
I got answers that went outside my comfort zone and against my expectations. Then I started reading some work of Dolores Cannon and I found words, stories, and experiences that were in line with the answers I got with my channeling by dowsing rods.

I am a bit cheeky and ask different entities the same questions but I usually get the same answers again.
