The mind looking
out of the left eye, although reasonably well
connected
with the one looking out of the right eye,
can't actually speak directly to your conscious
mind - except in dreams, poems, music, and
sometimes - if we allow it - in emotions.
Assuming it might know
more about relationships than your conscious
mind, assuming it is not confused by the
bits and can focus better on the flow, you
can sometimes benefit by asking it simple
questions and allowing it to respond.
 . .
One of the oldest and easiest methods to contact the
inner mind is the pendulum.
Sit comfortably at a table, with your elbow
resting on it as shown.
Dangle a pendulum from your tips of your thumb and
forefinger over the center of the Pendulum Way Diagram.
You can print the diagram out by clicking here and then printing from your browser. |
Ask away. Your inner mind (or higher
self, or other hemisphere, or whatever you like to think of it) has 5 possible replies.
-
Yes (the pendulum swings to and away from you),
-
No (side to side),
-
I don't know (counter clockwise),
-
Rephrase the question (clockwise),
-
I won't say anything (it does not move at all).
.
HINTS:
-
To start with, use a paper with the choices printed
on it so you (and the other half) can see what is happening. Click
here to go to a page with the diagram and print it right from your browser.
-
You can use anything for a pendulum weight, a ring,
pendant, or crystal. It works best if you feel an emotional attachment to it. You have to
like whatever it is, feel good about it. If in doubt, try several items and use the one
that works best for you.
-
The thread or chain holding the weight should be long
enough to let you hang it about 20-mm (just under an inch) or less over the diagram. The
thread or chain must be thin and flexible.
-
Use whichever hand feels correct to you, just
be comfortable. It does not work well on a pitching boat or car or in a strong wind.
-
Ask the question and simply observe the pendulum and
see what it does. Let the pendulum move all by itself. Avoid trying to influence the
result in any way. There will be no mistaking the replies. Usually the pendulum will
follow the pattern with amazing regularity. It will answer the questions promptly,
changing directions faster and more smoothly than if you tried to do it conscioulsy. If it
is hesitant or wavering or sloppy, the chances are your conscious mind is mucking it up.
Let go.
-
Start with easy questions that you already know the
answer to until you feel it is working well and easily. Once your inner mind gets the
idea, you won't have to coax it to answer. Let it practice a bit.
-
Don't go buying stocks or betting on horses based on
its replies. Unless, that is, you are a professional in that area to start with and it has
that kind of information available. In this case you are simply conversing with that part
of you that has always supplied you with "hunches" or "intuition" and
you can rely on the answers as well as you can on those other modes of its expression.
The idea is to get to know the part of your mind that does not
speak. It can surprise you with what it knows and it often knows things
"you" don't. However, there is no reason it might not lie to you, or say what it
thinks you want to hear. Be very very nice to the inner voice. Treat it like an
exceedingly good friend, your very best friend, let it know you rely on it to give
helpful, but honest answers. Observe it's replies without judgement calls.
You can ask it whatever you like but try not to get too heavy until
you get to know each other very well.
