The #1 Habit That quietly erodes your pendulum practice
do you also read oracle cards? If you do you might want to know the #1 habit that may be keeping you playing small
no matter what course you're following, I encourage you to enhance your studies and experience through meeting your inner guide
When you first start working with a pendulum, every movement feels a little magical.
That subtle swing, the gentle pull in one direction - it’s as if the universe is whispering directly to you.
Then… the doubt creeps in.
You ask your question, your pendulum responds… and your mind immediately says,
"Is that right? Did I influence it? Should I check again? Maybe I’ll just ask one more time to be sure…”
Before you know it, you’re questioning almost every answer.
WHY DOUBT CAN SPIRAL OVER TIME
The problem isn’t just in the moment.
When you repeatedly second-guess your pendulum, you train your brain and energy system to expect uncertainty.
Each time you override or re-ask, you send yourself the message: “I can’t fully trust what I receive.”
Over days, weeks, months… that lack of trust grows roots. It doesn’t just impact your pendulum sessions, it starts bleeding into your other intuitive tools, and even your everyday decision-making.
Your pendulum becomes slower to respond.
Your own energy feels clouded.
And instead of strengthening your connection to guidance, you build a habit of hesitating.
WHY IT'S BETTER TO TRUST - EVEN IF YOU'RE "WRONG"
Here’s the thing: trusting your pendulum from the get-go isn’t about being “right” every time.
Sometimes your emotional state, a strong desire for a particular outcome, or a subtle movement in your hand will influence the answer. That’s part of the learning curve.
However, if you always assume you might be wrong, you never give your intuition the chance to grow.
By committing to accept the first answer you receive, you send a powerful message to your subconscious:
“I trust my connection. I trust my inner knowing.”
Even if you later discover the answer wasn’t accurate, you’ve still strengthened your muscle of trust, and that’s what makes your accuracy improve over time.
BUILDING A STRONGER CONNECTION
The most skilled pendulum dowsers aren’t the ones who never make mistakes. They’re the ones who’ve learned to listen without fear, to trust without constant rechecking, and to flow with the information they receive.
Every time you choose trust, you deepen the energetic bridge between your conscious mind and your intuitive self. You also begin to notice patterns - how your pendulum feels when the answer is clear, how your energy shifts when you influence it, and how your body responds when the guidance is strong.
This isn’t just about dowsing. It’s about cultivating the kind of self-trust that ripples into every area of your life.
If you’ve been second-guessing your pendulum lately, consider this your loving nudge:
Take a breath. Ask your question. Receive the answer. And trust it.
Your intuition (like any relationship) flourishes with faith, not constant interrogation.
If you’d like to strengthen that relationship even further, my course Ignite Intuition Pt1: Activate Psychic Gifts and Inner Vision will guide you through powerful practices to build confidence, clarity, and a deeper trust in the wisdom that comes from within.
