Dowsing with Frank in New Mexico
A friend of mine dowses with a pendulum, and two weeks ago she worked with me to teach me how to use a pendulum. It didn’t go so well for me; as soon as I asked a question, I ‘heard’ the answer in my head whilst the pendulum bobbed up and down.
Many sources define dowsing as the act of finding underground water or minerals with a divining rod. Dowsing is not confined to water or minerals. It has been explained to me that it can be used when searching for basically anything, including answers.
The past weekend, my husband and I were delighted to have a wonderful dowser, Frank Geisel, come to the house to dowse for water.
Frank began by asking detailed questions about what we were looking for – this set his parameters for dowsing.
Next, without batting an eye, Frank handed me a pair of L-rods, gave me a quick tutoring session, and said, “Let’s go.” I was so tickled…I could do it!
The main key for successful dowsing is – as is with any other energy work – be specific. You will get exactly what you ask for.
While Frank dowsed with a pendulum and the L-rods, I watched the energy interactions. The following is what I perceived:I heard him specify his parameters; I ‘saw’ his energy expand, search – and through his subconscious and tools, respond.
When he received an answer, I ‘looked’ to confirm his findings. He was spot on.
Now, you’re probably asking yourself, “Well, Jan, why didn’t you just ‘look’ in the first place to find the water source?”
A few responses come to mind: “I didn’t think of it” and “It’s currently not my specialty”. But I am leaning towards, “What learning experience would I have gained doing that?” I wasn’t about to drill approx. 250 feet into the ground to see if I was accurate at something I hadn’t tried before. Ha.
However, through this experience, I learned some interesting things and met a really cool guy – how neat is that?
And, to top it off, Frank teaches dowsing classes at the New Mexico Farm & Ranch Heritage Museum in Las Cruces, NM – which I have requested to be added to the list to learn from him.

Hi Jan. You mention you “heard” the answer as soon as you picked up the pendulum – well, I call it deviceless dowsing and that’s what most advanced pendulum users experience. For many dowsers – dowsing pendulum gives that material confirmation, sort of an anchor that bridges the metaphysical with the physical.
If it bothers you – you may try holding your pendulum on a fairly short string – this way the reaction is much faster.
(Sorry for the delay, I was traveling)
Thank you Chris! I will try that.
Also, what I have tried was a rather large wooden pendulum – and can get that sucker going! Ha.
