The reality is somewhat different. It's a convenient method of wallet-mining, without having to leave the comfort of your own home.

The rods mostly move due to gravity, but occasionally wind and rain causes movement.

Correction ... pseudo-scientific application. In other words, a well known mind trick explained using wish-science.

Wallet mining from the kitchen table, or (if performed in the living room) "armchair dowsing".

The correct interpretation of the reaction of the Rod(s) is different in a mental dowsing application, than it is in a physics application.

The only intertwining of dowsing with physics is via gravity. The rest is a fairyland interpretation.

No idea what that is supposed to mean. It's just meaningless gobbledygook.

O.K. you seem to correctly be making a distinction by not including Map, Photo, & and Information Dowsing in your categorization, so to avoid confusion among viewers I suggest leaving the term "Dowsing," and mind/muscle "ideomotor" response totally out of a discussion of physics, and their effects on Hand held L-Rod(s), lest Skeptics continue to demonstrate their ignorance of these subjects. Swallow your ego's,(don't choke) and decide to become serious about learning, and stop bashing & mocking those who do have at least some working knowledge and show them respect.

That would be a smart thing to do. But why would you want to change the habit of a lifetime?

Now who's being egotistical?

It would be my pleasure.
