Labradorite is a feldspar (plagioclase) mineral traditionally associated with intuition and protection. This faceted pendulum is cut from natural labradorite so that each flat facet catches the light and flashes with blue and gold labradorescence as it swings. It is sized and weighted for hands-on dowsing work.

How to use it Hold the chain loosely between thumb and forefinger, letting the pendulum hang still, then ask a simple yes/no question and observe the direction of swing. Some people calibrate the pendulum first by asking a known-true and known-false question to learn its personal 'yes' and 'no'. It also works well simply worn as a pocket piece or kept near a pendulum board. Care & cleansing Labradorite is a moderately soft feldspar, so keep the pendulum away from hard knocks and abrasive cleaners. A quick rinse under lukewarm water is fine, but avoid long soaks or dishwashers, which can dull the flash over time. Many people also cleanse with smoke, sound, or a rest on a selenite plate rather than water.
