Pendulums

Definition:

Pendulums are objects attached at the end of a string or metal chain. When suspended from a stationary position the pendulum will swing back and forth or in a circular motion. A holistic healer will use a pendulum for measuring energy fields or as a dowsing tool for divination purposes.
Pronunciation: pend-ju-lum
