'he two ma*or problems were the time it took and the very limited information obtainable from an animal and its owner for homeopathic prescribing. +or instance, it was not unusual to have a cat presented with a complaint of several days of lethargy and anore(ia and with no other obvious symptoms. " physical e(am often revealed nothing out of the ordinary and )uestioning the client concerning the cat-s behavior and personality often resulted in ./he is *ust a normal cat/0 I did have some success with cases using my familiarity with remedies, but for the vast ma*ority of my patients, I had no idea which remedy might be appropriate. "t this point I almost gave up on the idea of treating the animals homeopathically. &owever, as so often happens when you need someone or something to point the way, I stumbled on a book by Machaelle Small 1right, entitled %o2creative Science. I3m going to have to digress here so you can see how I applied Machaelle3s ideas to the use of the pendulum in homeopathy. Machaelle is a very interesting woman. She decided many years ago that she wanted to repeat the e(periment that was done in +indhorn, Scotland in the early 4567s. 8riefly, a gentleman named Peter %addy, living in the coastal areas of +indhorn, Scotland with very barren soil, began growing an incredible vegetable garden. &e worked the soil himself and began talking to the evas of gardens. &e eventually ended up growing vegetables that were not only bursting with good health, but were often 92: times their normal si;e, including incredible <7lb cabbages0 It was so ama;ing that he became famous. People came from all over the world to see his garden and books were written about it. ='hey have a website > ?. Machaelle discovered the books about +indhorn and wanted to create a similar garden, and also to understand what it was all about. 'hus she entered into a relationship with $ature and the various evas. She has written many books as a result. I read all of her books and two of them were most helpful in my endeavors with homeopathy. @ne of these books is about healing with the assistance of $ature. It is entitled, .M"P > 'he %o2creative 1hite 8rotherhood Medical "ssistance Program/. 'he other book is called .Aarden 1orkbook > %o2creative Bnergy Processes for Aardening, "griculture and Cife/. In her work, Machaelle uses !inesiology. I tried her method but had limited success. &owever since the pendulum is really another form of !inesiology and one with which I was familiar, I decided to try using it to communicate with the various entities involved in healing. I took ideas from the above two books and combined them into a system that works for me. I would strongly suggest that anyone wishing to try my method, read these two books first. 1. Using a pendulum . 'his part is really very simple. #ou hold the pendulum in your dominant hand grasping the chain between your thumb and first finger. &old your hand about chest high and say yes. 'he pendulum should rotate clockwise as viewed from above. 'hen say .no/ and the pendulum should rotate counterclockwise. I use a rose )uart; pendulum. I do not know if the type of crystal makes any difference. 'hese pendulums are ine(pensive and can be obtained easily online. I suggest that only you handle your pendulum and that you keep it in a safe place. " nice bo( will do. 2. Connecting with your team. +irst I announce out loud =it doesn3t have to be real loud0? that I wish to open a healing )uestion session. I ask to connect with ". 'he @verlighting eva of &ealing, 8. Pan, %. My &igher Self, . 'he 1hite 8rotherhood Medical 'eam =I use the veterinary branch?. "fter asking to connect to the @verlighting eva of &ealing, I ask if we are connected. If the pendulum indicates .yes/, I move on to the ne(t, till all four are connected. 3. Asking the question. 'his would seem to be relatively easy, but in reality, it can be very tricky. 1hat you are attempting to do is communicate with non2incarnate entities. 'hey will understand Bnglish but will take you very literally. If you ask if you can do something, they will not understand that you mean .is that the best thing to do/ but literally, / are you able to do a certain thing/. #ou must be very precise and careful in you wording. 'his often takes much practice. In the beginning I used to get #es #es #es #es on everything I asked. 'hen $@ $@ $@ on the same )uestions. I would get very frustrated and think that this techni)ue would not work at all. It does take patience, practice and a lot of faith. If you are getting a lot of inconsistent answers, ask if you need to change your line of )uestioning. +or e(ample, I occasionally include the higher self of the patient in my group and ask if the patient wishes to be treatedDhealed. Sometimes the answer is no. "lso remember that you can easily influence the #es 2$o answers if you have very strong pre2conceived ideas about the answers. 'ry and keep you mind neutral when asking about remedies. I love it most when I receive a .no/ answer to a remedy that I was sure was the correct one0 'o find the appropriate remedy I have made up a list of the most commonly used remedies along with the most common potencies. I have two pages of remedies which cover nearly E7F of the needed remedies. I suspect that with people, the list would be much longer. I first ask

+indhorn.org

if there is a homeopathic remedy suitable for that particular case. If yes, I then ask if it is on my list. If yes, the ne(t )uestion is, .Is it on the first page-/. If no, is it on the second page. If yes, I then ask which letter it starts with. Since you can only get a yes or no, this process is a bit laborious. If the second page begins with !ali "rs., I would ask, .does the name of the remedy start with !-/. If it does not, I ask if the name starts with C and so on until I located the e(act remedy. I then ask in the same manner for potency and fre)uency. If the remedy is not on my list, I then go to a full list of remedies from a te(tbook or other source and try and locate it there. 4. Ending the session. It is really important to disconnect from your group when you are finished. 1hen opening a session you are connecting with a higher vibrational energy. If you do not disconnect you may feel very drained later on. 'o disconnect you simply state that you wish to close your session and disconnect from the @verlighting eva of &ealing. 'hen ask your pendulum if you are disconnected. If yes, go on to the ne(t member of the group until all are disconnected. I always thank each one for their assistance as I know I could not achieve the good results I am getting would their aid. &ow and why does this work- I am not sure I am going to be able to give a good answer in this short paper. I would definitely recommend reading Machaelle3s books. She often asks $ature these types of )uestions and gets very complicated answers. +irstly, I have to say that I don-t believe that human beings are the only intelligences in this Universe or that only three2dimensional physical beings e(ist. I suspect the Universe is full of an infinite variety of physical and non2physical beings. 'he key here is to ask the most appropriate entity your )uestion. Machaelle 1right appears to have found a good source of information for all natural phenomena including healing. I also tried her techni)ue with gardening and while I never got <7 pound cabbages, I did manage to get a bountiful garden, where I had failed in the previous 4G years0 I hope this paper may be of some help to a few brave souls. "lways remember, there are many many ways to do anything in life. Using the pendulum to find an appropriate remedy has worked for me. It is not necessarily the only way or the best way, *ust one way.
