Water dowsing

[Matthew Storrs]

I like to keep my mind open to this kind of thing, I went through a water pipe in a field, Was sorting it out myself when a bloke from South west water turned up, apparently the pipe also fed neighbours horse trough so they called them.

Anyway he looked at the hole where I can gone through the pipe and 3 meters away preceeded to walk over the area with his dowsing rods- "oh there it is" he says and I watched his rods move together. I thought is was quite impressive at the time, but it only twigged when i was going home that i had capped off the water pipe where I had broke it only 2 days earlier- there would have been no water at all in the pipe he 'located'

 

Anyone do this sort of thing- I have tried it in the past with very little results but perhaps I wasn't in the right mindset!

Seen it done to locate a water pipe to a house. Can only comment on what I saw and it works. Funnily enough I couldnt make the rods move?

My brother can do it.

He doesn't believe in dowsing, doesn't like it, and doesn't understand it, but he can do it.

Just a pair of bent wires and he'll find waterpipes, drainpipes etc

Same as. My sister couldn't wear a wristwatch (to much electricity in her body) or something like that, anyway the watch would stop working. Probably the same thing when it comes to dowsing.

I've done loads of dowsing/divining. It works a treat.

 

Water companies the length and breadth of the country employ full time dowsers.

That's interesting eggs- must admit I was quite surprised to see the water hoard turn up with dowsing rods. Maybe I will have another go- proper handy skill to have.

Hmm, interesting must have a crack, put those wire coat hangers to good use...

 

Strange how it works for some
