The Society was formed in 1993 by a group of like-minded people wanting to explore and encourage the different aspects and uses of Dowsing and Divining. Our aim is to learn for ourselves and teach others, the many aspects of dowsing/divining.  To further this aim, we hold practice sessions and/or invite excellent speakers plus our popular Summer field trips Meetings are held in Bronwydd Village Hall on fourth Sunday of the month unless it is the Bank Holiday, then 3rd Sunday. Time: 1.45 – 4.45  Annual Membership is available at just £20 a year Dowsing is a useful and interesting practice that almost anyone can learn.  It’s thought to have originated in Egypt or even earlier.  Many companies use the services of experienced dowsers to search for water, minerals, oil, electricity cables etc.  Some people dowse the safety of their food, and check for geopathic stress in their surroundings, but this is a personal belief and not yet scientifically proven.  Why not come along and find out for yourself?  Entrance is £6 for members and £7 for non-members* including a welcome cuppa and a biscuit in the break. No equipment is necessary, just bring yourselves. Second visit for non-members will be £10 because we really like people to join us :-)
