Dowsing Dowsing is a simple technique for investigating a variety of situations. Dowsing has traditionally been associated with the search for water, and is still used in many parts of the world ~ including Britain ~ for that purpose. In the early days of the industrial revolution, dowsing was also used to locate minerals. Besides locating water, dowsing can used by many other disciplines, including archaeology. The main organisation concerned with dowsing in the UK is the British Society of Dowsers, whose website contains a wealth of information on dowsing, dowsers and related activities. History The definitive history of dowsing is set out in The Divining Hand, a book by Christopher Bird. When dowsing it is very important to have a clear question in mind. For example
However, if you are searching for drinkable water via dowsing, your question must be more precise, such as
Many dowsing tools have been developed. Some of the more common include :
The Y Rod The
L Rod
or a precise point, e.g.
The Pendulum All the dowsing tools move due to the involuntary and imperceptible muscle movements of the person holding them. The dowsing tools emphasise the movement. There might be a small movement in the arm muscles, but the rods make that movement visible.
In relation to buildings and the environment, Ced uses dowsing
to identify detrimental and beneficial lines of 'energy' crossing a
property. Detrimental lines can be an indicator of what is known as
'Geopathic Stress' being present.
Dowsing and Healing A dowser Ced has learnt a great deal from regarding this is Joey Korn, an American dowser who uses dowsing tools as a form of healing intervention, and also to indicate that healing is taking place. Joey has developed a simple ~ but extremely effective ~ form of healing intervention using a combination of dowsing and verbal 'requests', or prayers. Joey's approach is fully set out in his book "Dowsing ~ A Path to Englightenment", which is available from the office of the British Society of Dowsers (www.britishdowsers.org). So convinced is Ced of the quality and accessibility of Joey's work that on two occasions he have brought him over from America to teach in the UK. Joey's approach is set out in his book and on his very interesting website at www.dowsers.com. Joey also has a strong interest in health, including the benefits of Celtic Sea Salt (www.dowsers.com/page9.html) Ced has written a number of articles for Dowsing Today, the Journal of the British Society of Dowsers. Two concerning Health are
In the health context, dowsing can be used as an
aid to investigating the situation, and also as an aid to
intervention.
