  -> Thank you LittleBalu (neat name :).
agree franglish: mental divining
45 mins
  -> Thank you 'franglish' :)!
agree Armorel Young: yes, definitely - pendeln as in using a pendulum (for dowsing) (and I'd go for dowsing rather than divining - pendulum users of my acquaintance call it dowsing)
1 hr
  -> Thank you Armorel! - And I agree with your point on 'dowsing'. - Carmen
