If you record all the times you receive a "signal", and then write down the result, you will find that it is the same result as guessing. Dowsing is quite compelling because it is easy to deceive yourself that the movement of the rods is due to an external influence, when in fact it is caused by the ideomotor effect. This effect is produced from the unconscious mind. When you combine this with selective memory, it then becomes a trick of the mind. Try a double-blind test, and the "effect" will go away. It's only an illusion.

So the copper that i found is a product from the unconscious mind ??
Coins that i have found are a product from the unconscious mind ????
The only that i know is that i take the L Rods and i find coins etc. I have found more coins with the rods than with metal detectors.
I have not problem if the coins that i found are from dowsing method or from unconscious mind. Please find a method so the unconscious mind to help us for finding coins treasures etc without the need of metal detectors.
