New Pedulum

I bought a pendulum - it was exhausting tying to get yes / no answers from Tarot. The first two times I used it I asked questions I know the answers to make sure I would understand the answers. All week I asked pendulum if a certain person was going to have a surprise meeting with me today and the answer all week was 'Yes". No one came to meet me today. How could this happen?

Perhaps your strong desire for this meeting influenced your answer. I have found with pendulum work that can happen. It can sometimes be hard, but you need to totally clear your mind of what you desire before asking the questions.

I use my pendulum without the spirit board sometimes I program my left hand to receive the message yes or no up and down yes left right no then I hang my pendulum above my palm and I ask it a question which direction to move gives me my answer that’s if I don’t have my spirit board with me

Hi @TommMaxx2,

Great to hear from you! Hope you’re doing well.

You’re right, tarot is a tricky method to try to get yes/no questions! The cards can be mysterious and like to present multiple paths and ways to interpret them. For me personally, I actually think this open presentation of tarot is a more accurate way to scry the future, as I don’t believe there is one set path set in stone, but rather a multitude of possibilities ahead that may change depending on our current decisions.

In your case, everytime you read the pendulum perhaps you were on the path to meet with someone. But then, at the last minute, something changed - through their free will, your actions, or maybe the intervention of the divine. While a pendulum can only tell someone “yes” or “no”, your tarot may have been trying to hint that multiple paths were waiting ahead. Additionally, when asked, tarot could potentially provide advice to help you stay on the path you wish to be on, or, alternatively, what you need to do to make something happen that wouldn’t if things stay as they currently are.


Anyways, take my thoughts with a grain of salt - I’ve always struggled to connect with the pendulum. It may just be me not finding the right tool, or it might be my own beliefs and practice not aligning with its energy.

Just wanted to offer up another thought. You’ve got some great suggestions from pendulum experts - I hope you can find the answer you seek!

Blessed be :sparkles:
