Dowsing

Most people find the very idea of dowsing bizarre, yet with a little practice they can learn how to find buried objects or underground water for themselves. Our dowsing books collection shows how to make divining rods and gives some practical advice on developing latent dowsing skills.

This ancient method of divination comprises the practical art of seeking answers and interpreting them by using dowsing rods or a pendulum.

Used by many civilizations in the search for water and minerals, dowsing is today an equally respected form of interpreting energy fields that vibrate between the human body and the outside world.

Dowsing can be learned by anyone willing to focus, experiment and practice their responses. Equipped with common sense and an enquiring mind, you can tune into the frequency of a particular target; by developing different responses from the rod or pendulum you will discover how to improve the quality of your life and that of others.

Few people realise that water divining is only one aspect of dowsing and dowsing is one of the few areas of the paranormal that has results with a real practical value.

Everything about the origin of dowsing is obscure. Even the term has no history. In fact the first real mention of the use of the diving rod in dowsing was not published until 1430CE, in a German manuscript written by a mine surveyor.

Below are our recommended dosing books showing how to practice the art of dowsing and how to use dowsing for divination.
