What Is Dowsing?

Dowsing, in general terms, is the art of finding hidden things. Usually, this is accomplished with the aid of a dowsing stick, rods or a pendulum. Also known as divining, water witching, doodlebugging and other names, dowsing is an ancient practice whose origins are lost in long-forgotten history. Artwork from ancient China and Egypt seem to show people using forked tools in what might have been dowsing activities. Dowsing may have been mentioned in the Bible, although not by name, when Moses and Aaron used a "rod" to locate water. The first unambiguous written accounts of dowsing come from the Middle Ages when dowsers in Europe used it to help find coal deposits. During the 15th and 16th centuries, dowsers were often denounced as practitioners of evil. Martin Luther said dowsing was "the work of devil" (and hence the term "water witching").

Does Dowsing Work ?

In more modern times, dowsing has been used to find water for wells, mineral deposits, oil, buried treasure, archaeological artifacts - even missing people. How the dowsing technique was first discovered is unknown, yet those who practice it are unwavering in their affirmations that it works. Numerous accounts of the Successful "Good Works" of Dowsers has painted history .    The fact that dowsing has stayed with society for thousands of years speaks in of itself.

How Does Dowsing Work ?

Some theorize there is a psychic connection established between the dowser and the sought object. All things, living and inanimate, the theory suggests, possess an energy force, a part of the "Living Field". The dowser, by concentrating on the hidden object's field or the energy signature of information , is somehow able to tune in to the energy field force or "vibration" of the object which, in turn, thru a trained subtle reaction, causes the pendulum to swing in a decisive direction, or the dowsing rod or stick to swing . The dowsing tool acts an indicator in reaction to the sensitivity of the dowsers quest, as expressed by informed thoughts , intent and questions.

Skeptics, of course, say that dowsing doesn't work at all. Dowsers who  have a track record of success,   stand in contrast, with good instinct and trained knowledge to apply with their dowsing quests , regularly locate water, minerals and other useful tasks. For the skeptic, there's never enough definitive proof despite, the ever mounting stories of success where the was to be none , and the expansion of Quantum Theory.

A Physicist's Answer

Albert Einstein, however, was convinced of the authenticity of dowsing. He said, "I know very well that many scientists consider dowsing as they do astrology, as a type of ancient superstition. According to my conviction this is, unjustified. The dowsing rod is a simple instrument which shows the uncanny reaction of the human nervous system to certain factors which are unknown to us at this time."
