The Power of Dowsing for Guidance and Insight with Bill Gee
In this episode of the Divine Lifestyles podcast, Tara Michalski engages in a profound conversation with Bill, an experienced energy healer and dowsing expert. With over 20 years of experience, Bill is a certified Reiki master and teacher, co-creator of the Time Temple charts, and an accomplished author and speaker. The episode delves into the ancient practice of dowsing, exploring its historical roots and its modern applications in personal healing and self-discovery.
Historical Significance of Dowsing
Bill begins by explaining that dowsing has been practiced for centuries, with evidence found in ancient cave drawings depicting individuals using dowsing tools, such as a "weirding wand" or two pieces of wood. While Bill primarily uses a pendulum for his dowsing work, he also incorporates other tools like L rods and Y rods. He emphasizes that dowsing can be as simple as using one's intuition or even the body itself through techniques like applied kinesiology, also known as muscle testing.
Pendulums: A common tool in dowsing, pendulums are used to receive answers to specific questions by interpreting their movements.
L Rods and Y Rods: These tools are often used to locate energy fields or water sources.
Applied Kinesiology (Muscle Testing): This technique involves using the body's muscle responses to determine the presence of imbalances or to answer questions.
Bill is a member of the American Society of Dowsing, which has been active since 1961. He shares that he will be a featured speaker at an upcoming convention, where he will discuss "dowsing the shadow" and teach a dowsing chart focused on personal narratives using literary archetypes.
The Role of the Ego and Subconscious
Tara expresses her curiosity about how dowsing can help individuals uncover their shadow selves. Bill explains that the ego often creates stories and rationalizations to deflect attention from internal issues, assigning blame to external factors. He describes the subconscious as a part of oneself that seeks to communicate important messages, urging individuals to pay attention to their inner experiences.
Identifying and Acknowledging the Shadow Self
Through dowsing, individuals can identify and acknowledge aspects of their shadow selves without judgment. Bill emphasizes the importance of giving these parts of oneself permission to be acknowledged and released. By doing so, healing can occur on a subconscious level, allowing individuals to let go of burdens that may have prompted them to seek dowsing in the first place.
Practical Steps for Dowsing the Shadow Self
Set Clear Intentions: Before beginning a dowsing session, set a clear intention to uncover and understand aspects of your shadow self.
Use a Pendulum or Other Dowsing Tool: Choose a tool that resonates with you and use it to ask specific questions about your inner experiences.
Interpret the Responses: Pay attention to the movements of the pendulum or the responses from muscle testing. These responses can provide insights into hidden aspects of yourself.
Acknowledge Without Judgment: When uncovering aspects of your shadow self, approach them with compassion and without judgment. This allows for healing and release.
Bringing Awareness to the Shadow Self
Tara and Bill discuss the significance of awareness in the dowsing process. By bringing awareness to the shadow self and allowing it to be seen without judgment, individuals can release it. Bill notes that this process can be intense, as the ego resists confronting uncomfortable truths. However, once individuals acknowledge these truths, they often find that the issues that once seemed significant become less daunting.
Transformative Insights Through Dowsing
Bill shares that many clients come to him feeling stuck in negative situations, such as a job they dislike. Through dowsing, he helps them realize that the problem may not lie solely in their external circumstances but rather in their own choices and perceptions. This realization can lead to transformative insights and empower individuals to make conscious decisions about their lives.
Spiritual Response Therapy (SRT)
The conversation shifts to the various dowsing charts that Bill has created, which he uses in his sessions. He explains that his journey began with the Spiritual Response Therapy (SRT) system, developed by Robert Detzler in the late 1980s. This system consists of 36 charts that explore the journey of the soul. Bill has been working with SRT since 2003 and has since expanded his practice to include other chart systems.
Twin Flame Within Restructuring
Bill's wife, an acupuncturist, introduced him to esoteric acupuncture and Chinese cosmology, which inspired them to create their own set of charts called the "Twin Flame Within Restructuring." These charts focus on understanding the relationship with oneself through the lens of Chinese cosmology.
Time Temple Charts
One of their most significant creations is the Time Temple charts, which integrate Chinese cosmology with concepts of time travel and the teachings of the Law of One, a channeled communication that emphasizes the interconnectedness of all beings. Bill explains that the Time Temple charts help individuals understand what influences their present moment and facilitate deeper insights into their spiritual journeys.
Creating Dowsing Charts
Bill explains that the process of creating these charts begins with identifying the questions they want to answer. For instance, when developing the Twin Flame Within charts, they explored the relationship with oneself through Chinese cosmology. Bill uses dowsing to gather insights and create phrases that narrate the story of one's relationship with themselves.
Concept of Akashic Dowsing
Bill introduces the concept of "Akashic Dowsing," which involves reading the soul record through dowsing. He explains that anyone can practice this technique using their personal library at home. By asking the pendulum to guide them to a specific book and page, individuals can uncover insights relevant to their questions.
Practical Steps for Akashic Dowsing
Choose a Book: Select a book from your personal library that you feel drawn to.
Set an Intention: Clearly state your intention or question before beginning the dowsing process.
Use a Pendulum: Ask the pendulum to guide you to a specific book and page that holds the answer to your question.
Interpret the Information: Read the selected page and interpret the information in the context of your question.
Demonstration of Dowsing
Towards the end of the episode, Tara invites Bill to demonstrate dowsing. Although he is initially in a room without books, he quickly retrieves a book titled "Alchemical Healing" by Nikki Scally. This demonstration highlights the practical application of dowsing and how it can be used to access information and insights.
The episode concludes with Tara expressing gratitude for Bill's insights and the transformative potential of dowsing. Listeners are encouraged to explore their own shadow selves and consider how dowsing might assist them in their personal healing journeys. The conversation serves as an invitation to dive deeper into self-awareness and embrace the power of love and acceptance in the healing process.
