CS asks:
“What do you know about a technique called dowsing or water witching, supposedly to locate water under the ground, but also to locate things with a rod in a Y shape? It does not seem like something harmful to be in search of water. However, there is also something called dowsing with a pendulum made out of a metal like brass or other materials that is attached to a string. Apparently, you would tell it that if it swings in a circle, this means 'yes' and if it swings in a straight line, this means 'no'; and then you ask it a question and your answer is the direction that it swings. I have seen this done and it seems like something one should not be doing. I am not sure if I should tell the people that are doing it that it is wrong or not.”

M asks: “
Have you ever heard about stacking rocks or stones? This seems to be a recent fad being seen in areas large and small. I'm just wondering how much connection the habit has to New Age beliefs. I have seen small structures being built along our walkway in our neighborhood. I wondered what would be a proper way to respond to their existence, or if I should ignore them.”

It was only a year ago, just before COVID-19 was unleashed upon the world, when Pope Francis warned the faithful not to trust in magic and psychics for guidance – so why are so many people turning to psychics in record numbers during this frightening time when they should be turning to God instead?

Is the Star of Bethlehem that appeared in the sky last night the same star that guided the Wise Men to Jesus more than two thousand years ago? And if so, why can’t we use the stars to guide us in life, just like the Wise Men?
