A handcrafted, six-sided obsidian point hangs from a fine silver chain, with a small obsidian bead at the top to hold between your fingers. More than a tool, it’s a small work of art to keep on your altar.
Crystal point
Approx. 1.5 in (3.8 cm) long
Chain
Approx. 8 in (20.32 cm) silver chain with crystal
Includes
1 obsidian crystal pendulum
All sizes are approximate; each one-of-a-kind pendulum varies slightly with the natural crystal.
Holding it
Pick the hand that feels right.
Hold your pendulum in either hand. Your dominant hand gives greater control. Your non-dominant hand is said to leave you more open to receiving the pendulum’s energy. Try both and keep whichever feels natural.
First reading
Find its yes and its no.
Cleanse
Hold it under cold running water for about thirty seconds while picturing negative or stagnant energy washing away, rest it in sunlight or moonlight to recharge, or pass it through sage or palo santo smoke.
Calibrate
Sit quietly and let it hang freely from its chain. Ask a question you know is yes, such as “Is my name [your name]?”, and watch how it moves. Then ask one you know is no.
Test
Ask “Show me yes” and “Show me no.” It may swing in a circle, back and forth or on a diagonal. A smooth, consistent motion is a good sign the pendulum is a match for you, and you’ll read it more easily over time.
In practice, cleansing and calibrating matter most before first use; cleanse it regularly after that to keep its energy clear and its answers accurate.
Obsidian, for grounding and protection.
Crystal pendulums are sought after for energy work and spiritual clarity, and many crystal lovers use them for guidance, divination, meditation and decision-making, for personal growth, and for a sense of connection to higher energies. Each crystal is chosen for its own intention: in crystal tradition, obsidian stands for grounding, transformation and protection, a powerful stone said to ground you and clear negative energy.
Drawn to more than one stone? The 9-Crystals Pendulums Set brings all nine pendulums in the collection together, each with its own velvet pouch.
Crystals have been prized for centuries for their beauty and believed metaphysical properties; Spirit Magicka makes no guarantee of any mystical or healing effect.
Your pendulum
A steady companion for every reading.
Keep it on your altar or nightstand for quiet decisions, or give it to someone just beginning their own practice.
