I have my own home made pendulum my mothers old wedding ring and a string. When I am on my own nothing happens but as soon as my husband has it, and I ask the questions it works.
I must be honest I have never seen anything out of the ordinary or heard voices, so for me this was kind of nice to know that there really are spirits out there.
Next step for me is my own Quigi board, apparently you find a lot of spirits that just like to chat because they can but every now and then you will find a spirit that has important messages to reveal.
Remember to treat your pendulum with respect and the spirit that have share his/her knowledge with you.
May the light always shine on you
