Willow Dousing
Several womyn have asked me to explain water witching. This is very simple and u can easily do it. First, BE Happy! Then find a beautiful happy Willow Tree with a forked branch in need of pruning. U want a 3/8 to 1/4 inch diameter forked branch with the 3 branches each about a foot long. When U find Ms Willow talk to Her, tell Her what is going on and ask Her help. Clear off any downed branches or tree trash near Her. Snip your branch. Put alittle unflavored chap stick or tree paint on this wound. Ask Her help ~ a gift being good at this point. Piss/nitrogen is great! Now, several feet from Her trunk begin to wave your wand holding the 2 branches lightly with your fingertips with the stalk part pointing slightly downward in front of U. Slowly walk around your tree feeling for slight pulls with your fingertips. When U feel a pull begin to walk following it to the tip. This is a willow root and just full of water. Continue around Ms Willow and find her 3 major roots (usually) and trace them. Sing with Her. Thank Her. If U need further instruction, ask another Willow in a wetter area. If U ever have a problem in differing soil types or lithologies, go ask any Willow in that soil type/area. Only Willows will work and only Willows can teach U! Tip ~ take off shoes, close your eyes let Mother Nature gently pull U around!
The way this works is the surface tension of water or her dipole moment. (Google dipole moment of water) The field engineer's test for "pure water" is to float a dime or a paper clip on a cup of water. It will float ~ some bottled distilled water will work. It's why a drop of water stands up like a half sphere and doesn't run flat. If one puts 2 drops of water very very near each other but not touching, they will move together over time and join. It's why bubbles hold together when U fart in the bathtub!!!
To determine water purity underground, look on any telephone pole and note 10 gage pure copper wire. Go to a hardware store and buy 3 feet of 10 or 12 gage pure copper wire. Bigger wire uses more but works better. Fold in half and twist the connected tip 3 times. Pull apart ends and hold loosely in your fingertips. By going over sewer lines or near polluted sites U can quickly get it ~ esp. if you had a good Ms Willow teacher. Then go back over your Willow found water veins. The purer the water the more Willow wands will pull and the more chemically polluted the more the copper wand will pull. (bacteria has no effect) Go play on known water sources! Trace a Florida spring!!!! Find the direction the impurities are coming from. Willow wands will keep about a week if wrapped in a wet towel and refrigerated.
