This pendulum is great for all those yes/no questions. Simply hold it by its chain over your open palm, clear your mind and focus and begin by asking it "show me yes" and notice its reaction it might spin clockwise or side to side etc, then ask it to stop and focus till it does. Repeat until you are confident, then follow the same procedure for "show me no". Then begin by asking questions that you know the answer to to check the response. Then ask the questions you realy want to know!
