Your first try
Start with the rods.
Find a calm, quiet place. Hold one rod in each hand, loosely, so each one can swing. Ask a clear question. Then walk slowly and watch.
In the user manual, rods that cross usually mean yes. Rods that move apart often mean no.
Hold them loosely
Close your hand lightly around each handle. The rod turns inside it, so do not squeeze.
Keep them level
Elbows in, rods pointing ahead, with space between them.
Ask, then wait
Ask one clear question. Give the rods time to move, or stay still.
Pendulum and board
Give the pendulum somewhere to point.
A pendulum on its own just swings one way or another. The wooden board gives that swing a place to point: Yes, No, Maybe or Unknown.
Rest your elbow
Sit at a table and rest your elbow, so your hand stays still.
Hold it over the centre
Hold the top of the chain. Let the quartz hang just above the sun in the middle.
Watch the swing
Ask a clear question and see where it moves. The centre means neutral or undecided.

Before you buy
Honest answers.
Dowsing is a quiet, personal practice. Here is what to expect.
Does dowsing really work?
Dowsing is a personal practice, not a measuring tool. Small hand movements you do not notice can move rods and pendulums. Many people use it for reflection and curiosity. We can't promise any answer, and you should not rely on dowsing for important decisions.
Are the rods real copper?
Yes. Each rod is 99.9% copper. Copper darkens naturally over time. Wipe the rods with a soft, dry cloth and keep them away from harsh chemicals.
How do I hold the rods?
Loosely. Close your hand lightly around each handle, so the rod can turn inside it. Keep the rods level and apart. If a rod does not turn freely, email us at hello@paranormic.com.
Is it good for beginners?
Yes. The printed user manual walks you through your first try. The video walkthrough and the manual are free in our resource library.
Is it safe for children?
This is not a toy. Keep it out of reach of children. Some edges are sharp, so handle the rods with care.
