How Pendulums Help Balance the 7 Chakras (Your energy centers)

Each of the seven chakras vibrates at a unique frequency, influencing your physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. When a chakra is blocked, stagnant, or overactive, it disrupts the flow of life force energy, leading to imbalances in health, mood, and clarity.

Using a pendulum for chakra healing helps to:

✨ Detect which chakras are blocked, weak, or overactive
✨ Clear stagnant energy and restore vibrational balance
✨ Deepen your connection to intuition and self-awareness
✨ Align your body’s energy field for optimal well-being

With pendulum charts, you can quickly and effectively assess your chakra health.

🔮 I created some simple but effective Chakra Dowsing Charts that I have used with clients —they were designed to help you accurately read chakra energy and perform deep healing work. You can also download my free 2025 Chakra Alignment Guide that includes an intention setting journaling page, a full healing checklist, and a daily chakra healing practice. This can compliment the charts and the full practice of bringing your chakras back into balance.

How to Use a Pendulum for Chakra Healing

[Cleanse & Program Your Pendulum]

Before using your pendulum for energy work, it's important to cleanse it to remove any lingering or stagnant energy. You can do this by:

✔️ Smudging with Sage or Palo Santo
✔️ Placing it on a Selenite charging plate
✔️ Holding it under running water (if the material allows)
✔️ Setting an intention to clear its energy

Once cleansed, you can hold your pendulum and state this or something similar:
"My intention is set that this pendulum is working as a tool for divine guidance, energy alignment, and truth-seeking."

[Establish Your Yes/No Responses]

Each pendulum moves uniquely depending on the energy you charge it with. Before starting a session, determine how your pendulum responds to different answers.

✔️ Ask: “Show me YES” – Observe the direction of movement.
✔️ Ask: “Show me NO” – Note the contrasting movement.
✔️ Ask: “Show me NEUTRAL” – Some pendulums may move in a different pattern when no energy is detected

This is a general movement that ensures you receive aligned responses during your chakra dowsing session. Please note that if you are using my pendulum charts, there are specific movements that will establish if a chakra is in fact out of balance.

[Assess Your Chakra Health]

Using a chakra pendulum chart like the ones in my Chakra Dowsing Charts collection (or create one of your own by drawing circles in a vertical line on a piece of paper and write the name of each chakra next to its correlating circle), hover your pendulum over each chakra and ask:

🔹 “Is my Root Chakra balanced?”
🔹 “Is there an energy imbalance in my Solar Plexus Chakra?”

The pendulum’s movement will indicate if a chakra is balanced, weak, blocked, or overactive.

How is this possible? When you connect with the pendulum and ask these intentional questions, you are actually connecting with your higher self / guides / source who already KNOWS what you need. Allow this energy to guide you intuitively.

[Clear & Realign the Chakras]

If your pendulum detects an imbalance, use these techniques to bring yourself back:

- Sound Healing – Use singing bowls or binaural beats to recalibrate your energy.
- Crystals for Chakra Healing – Place a corresponding chakra stone (e.g., Amethyst for Crown, Carnelian for Sacral) on the affected area. I LOVE Hematite for grounding. If we had a chance to chat at the Metaphysical & Wellness Fair in December, we may have used this stone to re-ground you. It's fabulous!!!
- Energy Clearing – Visualize golden light flowing through the chakra to remove blockages and envision your chakras spinning like perfect, bright, colorful spheres.
- Affirmations – Speak high-vibrational affirmations, such as:
"My heart is open and radiates love." (Heart Chakra)
"I trust my intuition and inner wisdom." (Third Eye Chakra)

For a deeper experience, work with my new Sacred Pendulum Chart Collection, which includes additional charts for energy healing, protection, and intuitive guidance and a bonus instruction guide so you can MAKE YOUR OWN pendulum. These are great to give you extra guidance on crystals, elements, timing guidance, emotional guidance and more.

Advanced Techniques: Pendulum Healing & Manifestation

Once you’ve mastered basic chakra dowsing, you can expand your pendulum practice to include:

Manifestation & Intention Setting – Use a pendulum to amplify your affirmations and intentions.
Spirit Guide Communication – Seek divine guidance and insights from your higher self. This is one of my favorite practices and always leads me to the best understanding of my situation and decisions.
Energy Clearing for Spaces – Detect and remove stagnant energy from your home, altar, or sacred space. I use this method of cleansing my home regularly along with a Tibetan singing bowl to determine where I should focus the cleansing.

Pendulums are not just divination tools—they are powerful allies for energy healing, clarity, and transformation. In order to use them successfully you have to be in a mental state of expansion and openness.

Final Thoughts

Pendulum dowsing is very much a sacred practice that empowers you to listen to your energy, heal your chakras, and connect with divine wisdom. Whether you're just starting or looking to deepen your spiritual journey, a pendulum can be a life-changing tool for energetic alignment and self-discovery.
