How to Make a Pendulum Chart

To make a simple "Yes/No" pendulum chart, use a standard-size sheet of paper and any drawing utensil you like. From a portrait vantage point, use the protractor to draw two small circles halfway down the paper, one circle on the left side and one on the right. At the top center, draw an oblong box and another at the bottom center. In the small left circle, write "Yes." In the right small circle, write, "No." In the top oblong, write, "Not at this time." In the bottom oblong, write, "Maybe." Use a "Yes/No" pendulum chart for simple questions.

Create a pendulum relationship chart. Placing a standard sheet of paper in landscape position, draw a half-circle that extends the full length and width of the paper. Draw a smaller half-circle within the boundary of the first half-circle, leaving space to write between the two. Divide the section between the two half-circles into four equal sections. Write "Emotional," "Mental," Spiritual," and "Physical" (one in each division). Divide the inside of the smaller half-circle into three equal pie sections. Write "Short," "Medium, " and "Long" (one in each section). Relationship questions for this type of pendulum chart might include "What type of relationship is this?" and "How long will we be together?"

Draw a numbered pendulum chart to test a pendulum. Use a standard sheet of paper in landscape position. Draw a half-circle that extends the length and width of the page. Divide the half-circle into 10 equal pie slices. Make a dividing mark midway between each division. Number each division of 10 as percentages, up to 100 percent. Holding a pendulum over the chart, ask, "How accurate is this pendulum?" Depending on the answer, you may need to balance your pendulum.
