Dowsing
Dowsing, sometimes called divining or water witching, refers to practices which some people claim enables them to detect hidden water, metals, gemstones or other objects, usually obstructed by land or sometimes located on a map. Most commonly, the movement or vibrations of apparatus, such as a Y-shaped twig, an L-shaped rod or a pendulum, is used in the practice. Some practitioners use no apparatus at all.
