“If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency, and vibration.” ~ Nicola Tesla.
That says it all, doesn’t it?
We may think we are our physical bodies, but we aren’t. We are powerful vibrational beings who can connect to the nonphysical realms where our angels and guides reside. How do we do this? Through energy.
Everything is energy—not just physical objects but feelings and thoughts. Learning to recognize energy is often the first step we take before we can actively delve into nonphysical realms to explore the “secrets of the universe,” as Tesla says.
The more familiar you are with your energy field, the easier it is to recognize incoming frequencies—vibrations that are not from you. But how do we interpret these vibrations? How do we distinguish between “good” vibrations and some that, well, aren’t so good?
Luckily, there are some basic tools to help us explore this mysterious world of energy. My favorite is something I can buy or even make at home—a pendulum. If you purchase one, I suggest you keep it close; mine stays in my purse or in my pocket. Having a pendulum nearby helps attune it to your energy field.
Don’t want to order one online or go shopping? Check out your jewelry box. Hanging a ring or locket from a necklace chain or a string can be just as effective. If it’s your jewelry, it’s been in your field, so it’s ready to go.
If you are new to seeing the world through the lens of energy, tools like pendulums can reduce the guesswork by helping you with discernment. As you become more comfortable in “reading” energy, you’ll become more confident and you probably won’t rely as much on your pendulum. There are lots of videos online that can help teach you how to use a pendulum, but I like to keep it simple.
Watch the video as I demonstrate how I “train” my pendulum to answer yes and no questions. Practice. Play with it. Before you know it, your pendulum will be like a good friend, giving advice when asked. Have fun!

In ten minutes, my life changed forever. My comfortable six decades of living became unrecognizable. Change brings different perspectives, and I soon discovered I questioned everything I knew, or thought I knew, about life.
Before that August morning, I epitomized normalcy—others might have called my life boring. I went to work each day, came home, read a book, and talked on the phone or sat in front of some sort of electronic screen. My life revolved around my work and my children. In 1987, at the age of thirty-five, my husband died, and I was left to raise my son and daughter by myself. Both are now married with children of their own. Phillip works in the music industry and lives in Nashville, Tennessee, and Cassie lives just a few miles away from me in Naples, Florida. As I look back on my life then, nothing appeared out of the ordinary—not in the way I dressed and spoke, or in my habits, work, friendships, or thoughts. As a psychologist, I differentiated normal from abnormal, and my life represented nothing but the commonplace.
On August 28, 2013, a brief experience changed everything. The foundation of my belief system cracked. I had to suspend my assumptions about the world to make room for different truths. As a result, I careened off life’s comfortable, and perhaps mundane, path. I now view the universe quite differently. Looking back, my life before that ten-minute experience seems as if it belonged to someone else.

The Reluctant Messenger book series leads the reader through a doorway into another dimension that exists simultaneously with what most people would describe as reality. Author Candice Sanderson is a psychologist whose training taught her to engage her world by the physical senses, but that all changed on morning when she began to receive messages from other realms of existence. Follow this ordinary person’s extraordinary journey into the unknown through her books, The Reluctant Messenger: Tales from Beyond Belief and The Reluctant Messenger Returns: An Unexpected Adventure Into the Angelic Realm.
The Reluctant Messenger: Tales from Beyond Belief
The Reluctant Messenger chronicles the spiritual journey of Candice M. Sanderson, a psychologist who inadvertently veered off of life’s comfortable path when she began to receive messages from other realms of existence. Her extraordinary journey into the unknown began early one morning on her commute to work.
As a psychologist, her training had taught her to measure her surroundings by the five physical senses. It something could not be heard, seen, felt, smelled, or tasted, it did not exit. This early-morning commute changed everything. These communications were too strong to ignore, and the clinically-trained psychologist had to work through doubt, fear, and her own professional judgment to acknowledge these messages.
Though reluctant, Candice became a messenger, bringing news of a verifiable spiritual dimension. She learned truths about the fluid nature of time and how near-death experiences could alter timelines. Ascended masters and beings from the angelic realms shared both universal and personal messages of love and hope. Messages from star beings and other galactic entities communicated to her about energy grids that protected our Earth. She learned of the very nature of our existence.
I really loved this video, Candie. It is so perfect for those starting out. I remember when I bought my first pendulum. I had no idea what to do with it but I was so drawn to it. It’s just simple quartz with a few crystals around it but there were so many hanging at the metaphysical store that I didn’t know which one to choose. A woman came over, she was a shopper, and she said to put my hand close to them and see which one I could feel the energy flow coming come. That’s exactly how I chose mine!
Then I got home and excitedly opened the carefully wrapped pendulum. I still had no idea what to do with it. I didn’t know people spun them around in big circles like you see on so many videos so I carefully held mine very still like you do on the video, and nothing happened. Nothing happened when I tried it for a few days, then it started to move. In my mind I connected with the energy of the pendulum and it started to move!
After a few times I began to think it was my reflexes making it move so I tried a little experiment. I tied the chain onto a holder that would hold the pendulum about an inch off the surface. Then I ask my questions, it did not move again. I realized the importance of connecting to the energy inside the pendulum. Everything is energy (even us) and all energy connects. With that in mind, I connected to the pendulum that was hanging on its own. I was not holding it. It began to move! Very slowly at first but it started. That’s how I use my pendulum now.
Vickie, I love your story. Pendulums, like crystals, seem to have a life of their own, and often they choose us, not the other way around. There can be such a great connection with your pendulum–think about it: a wise and trusted friend who connects directly to and through you–with energy.
Absolutely, its kind of like a trusted source for me now. I’ve had, and used, the very same one since metaphysical stores first started to open. They were kind of hippie looking stores back then LOL. It’s like the only one I like.
Love playing with energy!!!
Isn’t it great, Cari? Once I learned to view the world through the lens of energy, my life changed. I can now see the effects of our thoughts and emotions. I see how interactions among people change when the intent from the heart changes. Learning to feel, see, sense energy patterns can be a life-changer!
Absolutely agree, Candie. Once we really understand, and completely believe, that all things are energy and all energy connects, it just changes everything going forward!
