Chapter 12 – Ley Lines, Earth Lines and Energy Wells As soon as you get a rough idea of the general orientation of the grid, it is preferable to walk in a direction perpendicular to the lines. You will then have a clear rotation of the rods each time you cross the lines. (If you were to walk nearly parallel to the lines, your rods would barely swing at the crucial time of crossing.) A good idea is to have a roll of sticky tape with you. Stick some on the floor each time you cross a line to remember its location. Since the lines make a roughly perpendicular grid, you will most often find two groups of lines, the lines of each group being parallel to each other. Once you have explored all the parallel lines of one group, start walking perpendicular to them, to explore the second part of the grid. Now, what if you find a line that does not fit with the grid, a line that is diagonal, for instance? It indicates that you have located something additional to the natural grid, such as an electric cable, a water pipe, or even an underground creek. Go (even more) into your eye, tune into the line, and try to find out what it is. Electric cables usually make moderate lines. Underground water creates the type of lines that make you sick when you tune into them. Water pipes are somewhere in between the two, depending on the volume of water flowing through.
12.10 Dowsing the lines: do's and don'ts • If your rods go on swinging around even before you start walking, consider the possibility that you may actually be standing on a line! Take one or two steps and try again. • Suppose you find a line that is due to a cable, and there is no cable under the floor, what can that mean? Possibly the cable is in the ceiling! The lines are not only generated above a cable or a pipe, but also below them. • Do not dowse the lines for too long a period in one day. Unless you are very trained, the practice can be exhausting when pursued for more than half an hour. There is a simple reason for this: to perceive something, you have to tune into it. If you want to dowse the lines you have to connect with their energy. Since these lines are noxious by nature, one can easily understand why dowsing is a tiring sport. For this reason, it is not advisable to dowse for lines when you are low in energy or depressed. Dowsing is not a good activity for pregnant women, or for children.
