Charging Your Pendulum
With any new spiritual tool, Its best practice to clear energy and charge the item. This should be done both when you first get the item and also occasionally when you feel it needs a reset.
By charging your pendulum, you establish connection with it. Before charging, first cleanse. One cleansing method is to place the item in a bowl of soil or sea salt overnight. If you have a selenite bowl, you may place your pendulum in it to clear the energy as selenite has fantastic cleansing properties. You can also smoke cleanse by passing the item through the smoke of sacred herbs or incense. Another method is to leave on the windowsill in the moonlight when the moon is in waning phase.
Once you've cleared old energies, it's time to charge your pendulum. This can also be done a number of ways. Go with what feels most authentic for you. Sound baths either by using a singing bowl or tuning fork or even playing a recording can be highly effective. Leaving your pendulum in the sun or under a waxing moon, or even just sitting and focusing on the energy you want it to have can be all you need. Meditate and connect with the pendulum on a spiritual level. Hold the pendulum in your hand and envision white light radiating from the center of the crystal and merging with your aura. Imagine wisdom, truth, and knowledge pulsing through every atom of the pendulum. Ask that it always guide you true, keep you from harm and confusion, and help you tune into your inner guides.
