I'm going to update things in this thread as time permits.
Dowsing is a word created in the 17th century from Germans who were using the method for some of their apocarthy. It's from the word "deuter" which means "to show".
The actual action of dowsing is literally using a tool to 'Show the way'. Dowsing in short is using the soul to connect to an "All-Knowing" level. Everyone does not have this ability (see here).
However, the skill is one that goes back before Bible-recorded times, is referred to time and agin in the Bible as a "staff leading the way" for example, and is a technique that touches every religion in existance on Earth today.

I've said this in response to posts time and again, but I've never dedicated a thread to this comment, so I will here.
There is understandably the misconception that dowsing is 'out there' some possessed ouija board contusion. The fact of the matter is, it's something we ALL do in some form, just we don't hone it because modern science and the 'church' have negated its importance.
Anytime you have a hunch...a 'little voice'...something telling you that you want to do something one way vs. another- that is dowsing--> reaching a higher, intangible level of understanding and interpretation.
In days not too long ago even, dowsing was THE way to find water, precious minerals and metals. All dowsing is about it learning how to make that 'voice' a little louder, how to make sure that hunch is right. We've all had a hunch not be right...but the dowsing skill helps hone it to where it's dead-on.
It's really such a travesty that dowsing has such a bad name. There's not one soul on this Earth who wouldn't benefit from good Guidance.
I'd be happy to discuss the why the Church defamed dowsing so....if someone is so interested. It's quite the cover up that Christians of old WERE dowsers and it's really nothing, nothing to be ashamed of to do.
I think that using a pendulum is a good way to start building up that intuition b/c it's really hard to just start 'feeling'. Gotta walk b4 u run. But some can use muscle resistance on their body vs. a pendulum and learn the same thing. After a time, it turns to hunches and p's and body dowsing aren't even necessary.
