person and determine how far out it extends from the
human body.
Have the test person sit in a chair while you slowly
move the pendulum around her/his body. For beginners,
it is easiest to find the aura around the head and
shoulders. Begin by holding the pendulum about 4 to 6
inches away from the top of the head. Ask the pendulum
to show you where the person's aura is. It will respond
with a Yes movement if it is within the aura field. Move
the pendulum out an inch or so more, and ask the same
question again. Repeat this until you have reached the
outer limits of the aura, when the pendulum will answer
with a No motion. You also can do this with plants,
animals, and inanimate objects, such as rocks.
You may find that certain areas of a person's aura may
be closer to the body or much farther out than the
average range of the aura. This is an indication of a
disease or potential illness. When you discover such a
depression or flare, you then must use your pendulum to
