It may be applied to seek ground water, buried metals or ores, gemstones, oil, claimed radiations (radiesthesia), gravesites, or malign "earth vibrations". It is also known as divining (especially in water divining), doodlebugging (particularly in the United States, in searching for petroleum or treasure) or water finding, or water witching (in the United States). A Y-shaped twig or rod, or two L-shaped ones, called dowsing rods or divining rods are normally used, and the motion of these are said to reveal the location of the target material. The motion of such dowsing devices is generally attributed to random movement, or to the ideomotor phenomenon, a psychological response where a subject makes motions unconsciously.' (Wiki) ***'This book explains the dowsing, or water-divining, phenomenon, its history and present-day application, and also how would-be dowsers can recognize and develop the ability. The author discusses the relative merits of the instruments available, and different aspects such as radiesthesia and map dowsing, as well as astral projection and its link with dowsing.'
