Life has never been limited to the narrowband emissions that we use for radios and televisions; it has always used broadband – the whole electromagnetic spectrum. The number of frequencies that carry information that life can detect is thus exceptionally large.
All organisms, in fact, possess mechanisms to ‘fine tune’ their internal electromagnetic dial in order to enhance the signals they receive. As the signal is fine tuned, it gets stronger, and more and more background noise entrains to the signal, making it stronger still. This process is so powerful that a weak signal’s strength can be increased ten thousand times. - Stephen Harrod Buhner
I like reading these words. They tell a story about how we pluck information from the air and about how our communication with other life forms and spirits grows stronger with practice. Thanks Stephen!
I’ve settled on the metaphor of a cell phone to help describe what dowsing is. Stephen’s words take it much further.
First, we’re not talking about a small range of signals receivable by a cell phone – we can receive all signals across a very broad spectrum. Like our cell phone frequencies, these frequencies carry information. The number of frequencies carrying information is HUGE!
Which could add up to a lot of background noise and static – sound like your daily life? – if we weren’t able to tune in to specific frequencies to pull specific information we need or want.
How cool is it that the more we narrow our tuning, the more the background noise cooperates with us to amplify our intended target information?
Suddenly the idea of picking up a message from your dog while you’re off on vacation doesn’t seem that far fetched. Connecting with your deceased parent doesn’t either. With intention, focus, and practice, we’re able to attract exactly the information we seek.
We’re simply built that way.
