Most of us are familiar with the practice of dowsing for water or lost objects. There were even modern day practitioners in the United States who traveled the land during the Dust Bowl period of the Great Depression, offering dowsing services to those suffering from drought and dying crops. Less well known, however, is the art of dowsing used as a form of divination during psychic readings. Yes and no, some can and have used it and some dont at all.

Most of us are familiar with the practice of dowsing for water or lost objects. There were even modern day practitioners in the United States who traveled the land during the Dust Bowl period of the Great Depression, offering dowsing services to those suffering from drought and dying crops. Less well known, however, is the art of dowsing used as a form of divination during psychic readings. Yes and no, some can and have used it and some dont at all.

The number of bones used in aurispicy can be as low as four or greater than sixty, depending upon the preference and skill of the caster. Many psychics with years of experience and heightened attunement to the bones they throw have demonstrated an uncanny ability to maintain very high degrees of accuracy in their psychic readings using the four bone system. Many sets are decorated with symbols that indicate masculine and feminine attributes - an aspect of the art that has been carried over from its geomantic roots.

In the 1600s, Baroness de Beausoleil became well known for travelling through Europe with her husband to locate precious metals by utilizing dowsing. It is recorded that in France alone they unearthed more than 150 instances of gold, silver, and iron, in what has to be considered one of the more lucrative psychic readings in the history of the world - from a purely monetary standpoint, of course. Unfortunately, the duo's activities were brought to a sudden end when they were both thrown into prison for engaging in the occult.

A casting is generally performed in three phases, with each phase determining a different element of the reading. The first casting of the bones will reveal the past and those things which should be learned from the past, while the second throw of the bones provides information about the present state of things. The third, as you might expect, provides details and insights into the future. The information gleaned during these psychic readings will often force the questioner to examine themselves and their lives in a very questioning way.

Today, psychic readings obtained through dowsing are rarely ever seen in public. The practice more often remains in the shadows, practiced on occasion by psychics who use the divining pendulums to discover the answer to questions. Because of dowsing's limitations in the types of questions posed (the instrument can only indicate a yes, no, or neutral response), most serious psychics abstain for the practice, opting instead to use methods and tools that offer a broader range of responses for their clients or their selfs. Regardless if its used today many have successfully used it in the pass so it is a successful tool to say the least!
