Discover your Birth Time
Here’s a fun and intuitive way to discover your birth time.
All you need is a pendulum (for this exercise called “dowsing”), and there are lots of ways to make a “pendulum” with everyday items. Try a piece of thread or dental floss threaded thru a needle and stuck into a cork. Hold the string from the top and let the cork bob back and forth. That’s a simple pendulum. If you are wearing a pendant on a chain, take that off, and that’s a pendulum. Instant dowsing…And check out our lovely new gemstone pendant offerings below.
I like the create really quick charts like the one above then add a few graphics to “pretty” it up.
With your elbow steady on a desk or table, hold the pendulum so that it points over the center of this chart where all the lines converge. Then start by asking a question, “What time of day was I born?”
Give it a chance to start moving and don’t jump at the first swinging, wait a bit and see. The confirmation will come. Let’s say you get a steady swing between “afternoon” and “dinner.” Good!
Now draw a new chart that has the hours of 2pm, 3pm, 4pm, etc…thru dinner hour. Dowse again. You can finetune this process all the way to the minute with a few different tries.
