I have long been noted amongst my friend circle for entertaining guest with my Divinity Games. Some guest never return, others I have to tell them when the party is over. One of my repeat guest moved to Pennsylvania, about five hours away. After repeated request, we decided to make the journey for the weekend. We arrived at dark and was escorted the last back road trek with an awaiting caravan. We were tired and my partner retired immediately. Our host was excited and raring to go for the night. I tried to hang, just for politeness sake. As the evening wore, so did the host couple's tempers. Now I remembered why I was reluctant to visit. The host couple were constantly in a power struggle. In an attempt to tone down the evening, I lowered the lights and asked the couple to sit at opposite ends of the dinning table. I lite one of the many candles placed about and set it in the middle of the table. The mood quietened immediately. Great maybe this will work, I thought as I asked the host to remove his massive gold chain from around his neck and place it through his wedding ban. He was instructed to place his elbow on the table and allow it to swing from his thumb and fingers. Concentrating, he tried to focus on making it not move. Having no luck he touched it to the table, then raised it slowly. It began to move again. I instructed him to not be concerned about the movement, but ask it which movement was for yes and which movement was for no. As the shining motions took their course, I told him to ask it yes and no questions. After the third mental question, I was asked to sit back from the table so as to not influence the motion. No problem, now that they were entertained with a new toy, I was ready to retire.
I rose to excuse myself as the hostess began asking the candle reflecting object questions, "Did Jim stop at the bar on his way home this evening?" Which was the topic of one of the previous loud discussions. The wedding band at the end of the chain still being held by the host, rose with such force it pulled the chain in a vertical position. I could see the shock and disbelief come over his face as he released the chain allowing it to hit the door across the room. Immediately he retreated to his room. The hostess was still staring at the pile of shinning gold from across the room. I turned on the lights, blew out the candle and asked if she was going to get the expensive jewelry from the floor. Silently, she shook her head from side to side. I picked up the jewelry and placed it in the middle of the table and retired.
The next morning I awoke to the smell of fresh coffee and breakfast. My partner and the host were playing chef. The jewelry was gone from the center of the table. I asked had it been put away to a safe place and the host nodded the affirmative and changed the subject. That was the last time I used the Pendulum around guest. I only used it in private or with a individual I knew was ready to accept seeing the magic that was with in their own psychic nature.
