    5.0 out of 5 stars Great for beginners!
    Reviewed in the United States on April 12, 2013

    I have tryed other Divination tools, and decited to give this a try too. This book is well writting for beginners, and I liked the fact that it comes with a Brass Pendulum. I have read that stones and crystal ones can collect energy and store it inside them, but Brass seems to be better at Not doing so.
    Sig takes the time and explains what Dowsing is, then walks you through step by step as you advance. Its very easy to read, and well put together. There are many different chats you can pratice with to hone your ability.

    Chapter 2 So I picked up the pendulum and held it as intructed, and stated asking for the 4 starting movements. This must be the Tool for me, because the pendulum responded very quickly to all 4 movements, Starting point, Yes, No, Maybe. I got a little shakened because I was able to manipulate it on Q.... And I swear i didnt move my hand hhaha... I asked for the starting point, wow there it was, asked for Yes, wow there it was, go faster i said, it moved crazy fast, then i asked Stop, and wow it stopped.. This went on for a while, then i was getting afraid that i wouldnt be able to get a Right answer for the pendulum if I am the one manipulating it. So i put it down and read some more, sure enough Sig had answered my concern.. He said, Think like a kid, ex. Wow, I wonder what the answer can be? and get excited about it...hahha Simple! (if all else fails, read the manual ) ;o)
    Another time, with not that much pratice, I used the pendulum to help me find a hole in a air matteress, that i could Not find with soup and water. And sure enough one of Sig's lessons proved right, the pendulum lead me to the right area where it was. So got the soup and water, sprayed the area Again and There it was, I didnt see it the first 2 times I sprayed hahaha Woohoo

    Anyway, I truely enjoy this book. And I hope these stories give you and idea of what your looking for. Good luck to you.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great book, love the charts!
    Reviewed in the United States on August 5, 2008

    I actually just re-ordered and received this book. I had it when it first came out. If memory serves me correct, a new book should contain a pendulum as well, thus the name "The Pendulum Kit". So if you buy this book, buy it new in case you need a pendulum as well.

    I love the fact that The Pendulum Kit is written in laymans terms, very easy to follow along as your read. Sig lays it out pretty simple, in a way that lets you start using a pendulum after the very first few pages. This book shows you how to personally discover your pendulum movements for YES/NO/MAYBE, whereas some other older books I have read, just assume a certain position for the answers.

    What sets The Pendulum Kit apart from other books is the way in which the author has developed a set of questions to be asked before using the pendulum to assure a much higher success rate. In fact, I have adopted this pattern for years and forgotten where I had learned it from until I re-read the book.

    The book then moves into practical application exercises such as how to tune in, asking basic questions, the coin toss exercise and discussing the influence of emotion and the leading edge concept. All in all, through these exercises and discussions, you can tune into latent skills you might not have known you had through this process, even if you've never used a pendulum before.

    The book also contains several charts, but the charts are very few compared to other books. However, the look of each chart is very attractive. Each chart is comprised of black and silver coloring, which almost makes it appear as a color book. Some of the charts include a World Map, which was seemingly included to help you hone your dowsing skills through a series of map dowsing questions (with the answers in the back of the book), Astrological charts, YES/NO and Percentage charts as well as a Weather chart.

    Out of all the pendulum books I have read, this is one of my fav's...That's why I bought it again. I loaned my original copy to my little brother and haven't see it since:)

    Reviewed in the United States on January 8, 2008

    The pendulum that comes with the book is decent, though it is on a thread which tends to slide from the center, so you may want to check out other pendulums later on.

    The book contains illustrations which demonstrate how to hold a pendulum, establish basic communication signals between your subconscious and the pendulum and it guides you through a step by step recommended questioning process beginning by stating what you would like to accomplish and then asking "Can I?", "May I?", "Am I ready?", and upon getting the answer confirming that the answer you got is true.

    The book contains several exercises and charts (Yes/No/Maybe chart, 0-100% chart, world map, fun astrology charts, and weather chart). Few other dowsing applications are mentioned.

    At the end of the book is a brief overview of using other dowsing tools - L-rod, Y-rod, bobber, as well as dowsing without any devices. You are bound to have some fun with this set and perhaps you decide to continue your learning.

    This is a basic primer on divining with a pendulum. The author provides a system for grounding and aligning with the work and the pendulum and I appreciated that it was thoughtfully done. I would recommend this book for the beginner or someone doing a refresher.

    I bought this book because I've always been interested in different forms of divining and wanted to try my hand at dowsing with a pendulum (I already own dowsing rods). I bought this book used which was my own mistake since it then didn't come with the pendulum so I ended up having to purchase that seperately but overall I think this is a great book for beginners. It's easy to understand and has quite a few exercises for you to practice with as well as different charts for you to play around with. Definitely a great kit to purchase for someone who is just getting into pendulum dowsing.
