The power of Black Tourmaline is in its ability to protect you from the negative energies that surround us. It can be used to guard against environmental dangers, giving it an important role for those who want protection at all times; whether during home and work- even on your lunch break! Use this stone liberally around yourself with other stones for increased vitality, positivity & grounding qualities.
A pendulum is a weighted crystal or metal point with a chain attached. Use it as an intuitive divination tool to answer questions, make decisions and get spiritual guidance. To use a pendulum, first cleanse it and spend some time with it to attune your energy. Hold it by the end of the chain, with the pendulum dangling, and ask it to show you your yes, no, and maybe/unclear answer. Then once you understand the direction of each answer, you can begin asking questions. It is best to ask yes or no questions rather than open-ended questions. This practice is also known as "Dowsing".
