How can you find water or spirits with no electrical equipment? How about two pieces of metal. This is called dowsing and definitely did not start this way. To find out where this started, as we know it, we have to go all the way back to Germany in the 1600’s. This is where modern dowsing started by looking for metals. Yes, metals, not water. However.. for the full history we have to go back even further. Origins of Dowsing Rods In the year 1518, Martin Luther, a professor of was a German professor of theology, priest, author, composer, Augustian monk, and a seminal figure in the Reformation. Luther was ordained to the priesthood in 1507, he was quoted as saying, “ dowsing for metals is an act that broke the first commandment.” A 1550 edition of Cosmographia shows a wood carving of someone using a y shaped stick dowsing for metals. Although there isn’t enough context behind it, it was very clear what was happening. So, in conclusion the first instances of dowsing were specifically for finding metals and ores. Water and energy dowsing worked its way into dowsing later on down the road. dowsing rods come in two different forms. The first form is a simple y shaped stick, this is what was depicted in the wood carving in the Cosmographia. It is easier to find a stick shaped like this to make something specifically for this purpose. The shape of the stick also made it easy to handle, since dowsing can take some time. The second form of the dowsing rod is two L shaped pieces of metal, usually copper. Although it is unclear if copper works better for divining. Copper was widely used so it was easier to get a hold of, and to form. This is where the term dowsing rods came from instead of rod, because there are two. The two rods are easier to hold, making it easier to concentrate on the rods movement instead of the weight of the stick. It is important to note that these two rods act differently which is why you have to know.. How dowsing rods work Dowsing rods are used as a spiritual tool. Locking on to the energy of minerals, stones, water, and energy, depending on what you are looking for. The two different dowsing rods for sale are Y and L rods. The two types of rods have two different ways of showing you what you are looking for. The Y shaped rod is held in both hands and slightly pointed up. While you move around the thing you are looking for will pull the tip of the rod down towards the ground. If the rod pulls quick enough it could snap, making the L rods a much more forgiving choice. The L shaped rod is different in the fact that the rods have to cross each other to show you where the energy is. You hold the rods parallel with each other and parallel with the ground, once you have found something the rods will cross over each other forming an x. For anyone wondering, this is a very weird feeling when it happens. Just so you know. I have personally never felt the energy from the rods only saw the movement, but have heard of others feeling it, including what was explained as a tingling feeling. Why people use dowsing rods?
Divining rods have had many uses throughout history. The original use, we believe, is to find minerals, gems, and ores. Finding these metals was essential to make things that were needed in the past. Today with the advancements of technology it is much easier to find these things, so this tradition has been phased out. They most widely known reason is to find water. Living in different climates and in harsh conditions has caused many people to search for ways to find the things they need. Including astrology to find direction, tracking to find food, and dowsing to find water. While there are ways for people to find water with technology, some people stick to the old method of dowsing. Dowsing has been said to have been a very reliable tactic for finding water. This technique is used to find water lines, underground lakes and streams, or any forms of water in extremely dry environments and conditions. The newest reason is for finding energy. Spiritual energy is what it finds, not electrical energy. This is why I believe there are so many dowsing rods for sale. Spiritual energy is energy from ghost, demons, and anything in the middle. Since it is believed that ghost feed of fear and other emotions, it is also acceptable to believe that these entities give of this same energy. So where do you go to find these...
