This unique product only available from Oswald The Runemaker is an advanced dowsing or "pendling" tool for use in divination or discovery. The design has been developed in co-operation with my good friend and colleague Mark Porter of Casa Grande, AZ. 

It is an octahedral pendulum about 3in x 2in (100 x 50 mm). It is crafted from solid wood and the original tree bark is often retained on the central vertices. The faces of the pendulum bear the eight runes most appropriate for sending and receiving. The top is fitted with a little metal ring and a 10 inch length of chain terminating in a small wooden fob decorated with the Oswald bindrune logo. A small 12-page introductory booklet is supplied with the pendulum. The 8 runes have been empowered by runic ritual to perform the dowsing function.

Beware of imitations! You may find other versions of the runic pendulum on the www, but the original Oswald pendulum is the only one that has been empowered by runic ritual.

The upper surfaces bear the four “sending” runes:

• Ansuz, the Messenger Rune

• Ingwaz, the Rune of Harmony

• Ihwaz, the Rune of Defense

• Ehwaz, the Rune of Momentum

And the lower surfaces bear the four “receiving” runes:

• Raido, the Traveller’s Rune

• Berkanan, the Rune of Growth

• Dagaz, the Rune of Transformation

• Sowilo, the Rune of Revelation

The pendulum can be used to locate objects, or for giving yes and no answers to questions. It may also help to identify an illness or highlight a dietary deficiency. A pendulum held over a map or sketch may find the position of a person, building or object.

Before use, the pendulum will have to be "set up" and attuned to your psyche, so I have included a 12 page booklet giving advice on this procedure, together with some basic  instruction on dowsing.  

Ley lines can also be dowsed by pendulum.  These are lines of energy which criss-cross the surface of the earth. Ancient religious sites and many churches that are built on older sacred sites are situated on Ley lines. They can be positive or negative in nature. Some are large and powerful while others are smaller and weaker.

Living or working on a negative line can have an adverse effect on some people who feel ill or depressed as a result. If you know where the Ley line is, you can move your living or working location away to one side of the line. Some times a few yards is sufficient, but I have heard of victims actually moving to another house!

There is an excellent introduction to pendulum dowsing at:

 http://mypage.direct.ca/j/jliving/landmine.htm, an article by an ex-army engineer officer who used the system for locating unexploded landmines in military service.

(Genuine purchasers please note: in order to protect the pendulum design from unauthorized copying I have included a couple of deliberate mistakes in the pictures and the description. Pendulums made to the above specifications will be unlikely to produce accurate results.)
