Getting into the Swing of Energy: Pendulum 101

You are ever more whilst on this planet a conduit for Energy. Which means you can use the tool that you were given - a body - along with the tool of the pendulum to receive guidance about pretty much anything. Ask away!

I'm Lizanne Flynn. I'm a master healer who works with both Animals and humans, individually and together in reuniting body and soul within themselves. I also

form a bridge for the relationships between Earthlings so that the ripple effect of energetic shifts by each is deeply honored and valued.

I'm an animal communicator, medium, and medical intuitive, and  I use the tools of shamanic journeying and soul retrieval 

to support all Earthlings in their recovery from past trauma. I'm certified as a Reiki Master Teacher and as a canine massage therapist. This is the Animals' iView 

podcast.

I was introduced to the use of a pendulum in 2008 and honestly, my use of them has had a bit of a swing itself over the past 15 years. Currently I have a pendulum

in every room of my home and when I'm out and about in public, I have a key chain - a miniature Eiffel Tower that my sons brought back to me from a trip abroad to

Paris when they were younger - that I use. Say in the grocery store if I want to know what supplements and/or other ingestible foods are in the highest and best

good for my body at this point in time. And that's the magic phrase to use to start your conversation with your pendulum - this X whatever X is in my highest and

best good at this point in time. That says to Energy/the Universe - look at the energy of this object and tell me if it serves me  in this moment. You'll notice that

while that is a yes/no question as far as results go, it's not a "should I take this supplement?" question. Being a good partner with Energy dictates that putting a few

really good parameters in place communicates your intention in asking Energy in the first place. It becomes a well-aimed arrow, I'm  hearing, versus a blast from a

shotgun aimed wildly in any direction. As members of the Animals' iView Academy will tell you, the Universe can be a heck of an effective partner to work with via

Energy and you are asked to bring your very best game, if you will, to the forefront. Because as pure as your intention can get, that's exactly how the Energy will be

returned to you in the form of guidance. And that in itself is where humans often get tripped up - we're expecting an answer, gosh darn it - and the Universe says "

hold my beer while I provide you with the guidance you can use as a member of  highly intelligent species with which to make your own choices." Because Energy 

and the

Universe will not ever take the choices away from you that you're here to make on your own. And while some of you might think - oh I'd loove for someone else to 

make these perceived touch choices for me, that's not why we're here. Because I have a hunch that just as soon as someone else makes a choice for you, there 

perhaps will be a bit of blame, justify and defend going on our part as a species. Because we so value our individual awareness above any collective awareness

and gee, if I want to muck it up myself, I will do just that, thank you very much! As witnessed by a rapidly approaching earthquake-tornado-tsunami type of shift by

Earth Herself due to our "choices". Before I move on, let me add a caveat to "highest and best good". As an example, if I were to use my keychain and ask "should

I take this new supplement" and I receive a yes as guidance or perhaps think "oh, okay - I've got my answer" and then I go home, take the supplement and end up

having to go to the ER, I might be prone to blame the Universe and/or Energy or even think - as I heard recently from a client - that the pendulum somehow lied! 

As the pendulum is connected to your bioelectric field that science believes every being has and on this, my frenemy and I agree, not because I believe it as well

but because I've felt and experienced it. So I KNOW that it's accurate for me. As this is a fixed design planet containing light and contrast to light that partner

with each other in balance within duality to achieve unity, the "highest and best good" can be interpreted by humans to be only something that we want. After all

the Universe wants us to only have the highest and best good, right? Maybe it's in the definition of the word best right before good? Because what's in my highest

and best good with the earlier example of the supplement might just be for me to be more judicious in my intake of supplements, research before I buy and to not

fall for the latest and greatest. All in an effort to perhaps - hypothetically - slow the steadily (my perception) increasing symptoms of MS after 30 years in this body

I chose in this lifetime. It could be that I need to be more compassionate with myself, work more closely with my neurologist, tell them what I'm doing (they're fairly

lenient with me after all these years of working together). And it could also be a matter of timing - perhaps the supplement is meant for a later time or an earlier

time when my body was more amenable to that particular substance. You can see how it can get a bit murky with this highest and best good thingy. All the more

reason to state that up front and understand that when you embrace a not-knowing you will likely get more information that you need and clear information that you

can most importantly apply. Because we're big on our actions right - we're big on "moving forward" because we forget to also stand still in the moment. 

The first pendulum I referenced was a round metal washer with a hole in the middle of it and it was suspended by a piece of thread. Yep, super low tech and it was 

given as part of my canine massage certification course. I still have it in all of my original coursework and case studies - it's fun to look back at where we've been,

right? - from time to time. Both light and contrast light will be present and I do remember seeing a photo of Wolf on the wall of this small classroom/studio. As I

had already been doing animal communication for a couple of years, I might have anticipated what happened next and yet was still really surprised by the message

received in a clairaudient - clear-hearing - way - "so, you're finally here - welcome". As you might feel right now, the energy of Wolf was a bit impatient, wanted to

let me know that they'd been waiting for me and belatedly remembered the importance of pack relationships and social niceties as it were. 

It remains one of my most favorite validations because

it was so unexpected and reaffirming. The energy of the pendulum can feel like that - if you allow it to work with you by providing it with all of the applicable 

information in a solid intention. I'm not talking wordy as in "okay, Universe - it is in my highest and best good to go the grocery store on 2nd avenue first then to go

to the vitamin store on 4th second and then to the bakery on 5th street third at this point in time." Then again, maybe that's a good test so that you'll experience how

incredibly all-encompassing both the knowledge and the wisdom you have at your disposal via a metal washer on a piece of thread can be. As I stated before, both of

the statements of "highest and best good" and "at this point in time" allows the Universe to locate the right building, if you will, in a city and that within that building,

the right room of guidance based on your parameters. Because that room will contain both light and contrast to light you can certainly ask about all kinds of things -

pretty much anything that belongs within the purview of human experience. Relationships - "it's in my highest and best good to go on a date with X at this point in

time" - career - "it's in my highest and best good to make this job change at this point in time" - health - "it's in my highest and best good at this point in time to take

this supplement". Et cetera. You and your experience are intimately known to the Universe and as we've talked about before, Energy is either on or off and it will not

ever lie to you. So often we get impatient with our life path and the not knowing that we want the comfort of knowing everything will be all right - and it will be. It's

just that any aspect of a thing about which you are not aware can seem like it's springing out at you, attacking and otherwise may cause you to mistrust the pendulum.

And to that I say - with consistent use, the pendulum will feel like a destination as your body as a whole will sense the energy move from the center of your body and

down your arm. And in the beginning it may help if you close your eyes after you make the HBG - highest and best good and - TPIT - this point in time - statement. So

that the in this case the watched pendulum will start to boil - er, I mean move.

Before you begin, stand with your feet about hip distance apart and bring your arms with elbows into your sides parallel in front of you, hands facing each other. Take

a couple of deep breaths and again perhaps, closing your eyes, move your palms slowly closer together in front of your body. Stop when your palms feel heat or 

tension. That's your own bioelectric field you're holding in between your hands and you can visualize it as a little ball of energy. Move it around if you want and then

move your palms away from each other. You might feel a cooling sensation on your palms as they have less of this field compressed between them. This may take

a couple of times before you get the hang of it, don't despair or worry - just repeat until eureka, you've got it. Now find your pendulum. You can go for one of the fancy

schmancy ones and remember, it's not about the crystal or the chain or anything other than you working with energy. Heck I've had clients use their own necklace in a

pinch. With your dominant hand, make a loose fist with the thumb resting on top of your forefinger, knuckles pointing out. The thumb will be the holder of 

the pendulum with the longer end hanging up and over the loose fist and knuckles. The shorter end will drape over the back of your fingers and just dangle there as it

doesn't move. This should feel easy and light - I'll put an public domain image in the podcast notes so you  all can see what it should look like. The reason for 

the draping over vs holding one end like between thumb and forefinger - I think - is so that energy can move freely and any minute movement of your arm itself isn't 

going to "override" if you will the actual energy. Or that you think you want a yes and without awareness your body and Energy interpret that intention and give you

what you asked for - kinda defeats the purpose, right? So - think loosely and feel loosely so that the better you'll be to shift and flow with the energy when it arrives.

Now you're ready to receive what is your body's yes movement and no movement which will not ever vary. Because you are being in fixed physical form, with the above

parameters are in place - solid intention, HBG and TPIT - the yes and no will stay the same. It's the question that will change which I find reassuring in a way. Because

I know I can count on a solid yes or a solid now without guessing on my part, the whole point really. Say something you know to be true- "I am X years old putting a

number value in X" - close your eyes and after about 15 seconds open them to see how the pendulum is moving. It may be slight or it may be a big swing - that

doesn't matter right now. And most importantly - don't freak out! This is energy everybody - your newish best friend. Notice if it's in a circle or not, that circle could be

clockwise or counterclockwise, it could be a swing back and forth, notice if that's left to right horizontally or vertically. Then it helps to make a statement - my "yes"

is in a clockwise circle. Ta Da! Now - say something you know to be not true - "my name is Madonna" which is an inside joke from my first ever muscle testing - and

yes, this is a bit muscle testing-ish, more on that in another podcast. Notice now with this untrue statement or a "no" answer the direction and movement of the

pendulum. It could be quite different from the "yes" or maybe just the direction changed. Once you've got the "no" direction say my "no" is a horizontal swing. Which

just happens to be my no as the circle is my yes. Another Ta Da and a rousing Huzzah for working with a pendulum maybe for your first time ever! The keys to the

Universe are now yours for the taking to use judiciously and with sober intent. Remember, it takes consistent use of the tool of the pendulum to begin to feel

comfortable as you start to watch it and better yet start to feel it move perhaps even before your intention has been fully formed in your brain. Yep, I've definitely

had that happen and now to the even thornier issue of trusting the yes or no. 

Here's the thing. No matter how many times you pose the statement to the Universe using energy via the pendulum, the answer will likely remain the same. Be very

careful about your spelling, people! Because if you alter even a word throughout the pendulum use - say "it's in my HBG to BUY rather than "take" this supplement at

this point in time", you'll get what you put in. And then when you end up taking the supplement immediately upon getting home and end up in the ER a few hours

later, you may not realize what changed. You asked about buying it vs taking it and to Energy that's everything in one word. Sure you may try to justify or defend - well,

of course I was going to take it, what difference did it make if I only asked about buying, that's inferred, isn't it" And - nope - just a one word answer back, lol, from

the Universe itself. This isn't about mind reading, it isn't about magic per se, it isn't about shaking a magic 8 ball, this is truly about having a one on one conversation

with Energy using the tools - plural - of your body and an extension of that body, the pendulum. Because after all, your body doesn't lie to you either - it just that we

sometimes don't like what it has to say. The more you tune into the energy that IS you and have fun with maybe starting with less serious questions first - like,

it's in my highest and best good to have ice cream for dessert" you'll begin to appreciate how constant you are as your own source of energy that communes at will

that last part is so key! with the Universe at large. Who really does want only your highest and best good - always. And at least, that's how the Animals see it.
