Some folks call it witchcraft, but the art of dowsing, or water witching, is more of a science than it is magic. By using a forked stick, a pendulum, rod or other device, dowsers can locate underground streams of water and treasure - gold or other precious metals.

The search for water is the most common use for dowsing, especially during a drought. However, as the art becomes more refined, some people can find missing people, lost aircraft or ships and those mysterious energy fields called ley lines. Some people don't even have to leave their homes. They can dowse things out using a map!

Although the majority of dowsers do use some type of device to focus their energy, this has little bearing on what they do. Dowsing is done by using the subconscious mind. The subconscious knows and is aware of far more than a lot of people give it credit for.

"Dowsing is the marriage of the scientific and the intuitive" says Lori McDonald who designs pendulums for dowsing.

Larry Lynch doesn't believe in magic. He's a water witch, but he prefers the name "dowser." He says it's all connected to the electrical charges in the body and to the fact that a person's body is made up of 90% water.

Dowsing is an ancient craft. Cave drawings in Africa depict dowsers going about their search for water. There is evidence that dowsing was known in such varied places as ancient China and Egypt.

Dowsing involves the use of the mental, emotional and intuitive faculties concentrated on the desired object. Almost anyone can dowse with varying results and will improve with practice.
