Modern day dowsers seem\nto concentrate much of their work on what are variously termed \u201cEarth\nenergies\u201d. These come in various forms, having various names, but generally are\nthought of as lines of \u201cinfluence\u201d (if simplified, rather like the dowsing line\nabove an underground stream). They seem to be only detectable by dowsing,\nalthough there has been some suggestion that some instruments, such as scintillation\ncounters, or magnetometers also respond to them. Much has been written about\nthese energies, because there is a concern about the effects of them on people\u2019s\nhealth. The general idea is that long exposure to them, is associated with a\nvariety of both physical and mental health complaints. For instance, such\nprolonged exposure might occur if one\u2019s bed is located over. Therefore, many\ndowsers concern themselves with the detection of these energies, on behalf of\nother people, so that some intervention can be made to prevent, or at least\nalleviate, the harmful effects. It is a very big subject, which we can only\ntouch upon. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Some dowsers claim that people have had an understanding of Earth energies from prehistoric times. The current day interest appears to stem from the work by a German dowser named Freiherr von Pohl, who was active in the 1930s.\u00a0 He described the effects of these Earth energies on plants and animals. From all these observations he considered that they would be harmful to humans. He then made a study of a town named Vilsbiburg, which was considered to have a high incidence of cancer deaths. Von Pohl dowsed the town and postulated\u00a0 an association between cancer deaths and subterranean water. His results were published in his book in 1932. This link shows some of his results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
