Pendulums are a powerful and useful divination tools !!

A pendulum can be used for checking the health and spin of the chakras prior to a Reiki session or any time.  When checking the seven major chakras, they will spin in a 6” wide clockwise circle when they are open and “normal”. 

Any other spin is not “normal” and indicates an area that needs extra Reiki or extra work on it.  You always can use color chakra stones in meditation sessions.   These other spins could be horizontal, vertical, diagonal, elliptical, counter-clockwise, or even completely still.
