Your Complete SRT Problem-Solving Guide

You're using SRT but running into issues. Your pendulum won't move, blocks won't clear, or you're getting confusing answers. This comprehensive troubleshooting guide addresses every common SRT problem with practical solutions, plus answers to the most frequently asked questions about Spiritual Response Therapy.

Pendulum Problems

Problem: Pendulum Won't Move

Possible causes:

• You're holding too tightly
• Your arm/hand is tense
• You're trying too hard
• You don't have permission to work on this issue
• You're not grounded
• Pendulum needs cleansing

Solutions:

• Relax your grip—hold chain lightly between thumb and forefinger
• Rest your elbow on table for stability
• Take 3 deep breaths and release expectation
• Ask: "May I, Can I, Should I work on this?" (if NO, respect it)
• Ground yourself—visualize roots into earth
• Cleanse pendulum with sage smoke or moonlight
• Try different pendulum

Problem: Pendulum Gives Inconsistent Answers

Possible causes:

• You're too attached to specific outcome
• Question is unclear or too complex
• You're not grounded or centered
• Pendulum needs recalibration
• The answer genuinely is "maybe" or "unclear"

Solutions:

• Check your emotional state—are you desperate for specific answer?
• Rephrase question more clearly and simply
• Ground and center before trying again
• Recalibrate: "Show me YES" "Show me NO"
• Accept that some situations are genuinely uncertain
• Ask: "Is the answer unclear because [reason]?"

Problem: Pendulum Swings Wildly or Erratically

Possible causes:

• Strong energy or emotion around the question
• Entity interference
• You're not grounded
• Environmental energy is chaotic

Solutions:

• Ground yourself deeply
• Set stronger protection
• Clear the space with sage
• Check for entity presence: "Is there an entity interfering?"
• Move to different location
• Take break and try later

Clearing Problems

Problem: Block Won't Clear

Possible causes:

• There's a deeper block underneath preventing clearing
• Block is serving a protective purpose
• You don't have permission to clear it yet
• Clearing statement wasn't spoken with enough authority
• There are multiple layers you haven't addressed

Solutions:

• Ask: "Is there a block preventing me from clearing this block?" (meta-block)
• Ask: "What is this block protecting me from?"
• Ask: "Do I have permission to clear this now?"
• Repeat clearing statement with more authority and conviction
• Ask: "How many layers does this block have?"
• Call in Archangel Michael or spiritual support
• Consider working with professional SRT practitioner

Problem: Block Keeps Coming Back

Possible causes:

• You didn't clear all related blocks
• You didn't clear across all timelines/dimensions
• There's an entity recreating the block
• You have a subconscious investment in keeping the block
• Environmental factors keep reinstalling it

Solutions:

• Ask: "Are there related blocks I missed?"
• Use multi-dimensional clearing: "across all timelines, all dimensions"
• Check for entities: "Is an entity recreating this block?"
• Ask: "What benefit am I getting from this block?"
• Ask: "What in my environment is reinstalling this?"
• Seal the clearing: "This block cannot return. I am permanently free."

Problem: Feeling Worse After Clearing

Why this happens:

• Clearing brings up emotions for processing
• Energy shifts can feel uncomfortable temporarily
• You're experiencing healing crisis
• Old patterns are resisting change

What to do:

• This is usually temporary (24-48 hours)
• Rest, hydrate, be gentle with yourself
• Journal emotions that arise
• Ground frequently
• Don't clear more—allow integration
• If it persists beyond 48 hours, seek support

Chart and Protocol Problems

Problem: Don't Know Which Chart to Use

Solution:

• Always start with High Self Chart
• Let pendulum guide you to correct category
• Trust the process—chart system is designed to navigate you
• If confused, ask: "Which chart should I use?"

Problem: Pendulum Indicates Multiple Categories

Understanding:

• This means there are multiple blocks to clear
• Not a problem—just more work to do

Solution:

• Ask: "Which block should I clear first?"
• Clear that one completely
• Return to High Self Chart
• Clear next block
• Continue until all cleared

Problem: Can't Find the Right Clearing Statement

Solution:

• Use general clearing template: "I now clear [block] completely and permanently. It is done."
• Speak with authority—intention matters more than exact words
• Create your own clearing statements based on SRT principles
• Trust your Higher Self to guide the words

Accuracy and Trust Issues

Problem: Don't Trust the Answers

Why this happens:

• You're new and building confidence
• Answers contradict what you want to hear
• You're second-guessing your intuition

Solutions:

• Test with questions you know answers to
• Track accuracy over time—keep journal
• Verify answers with other divination methods
• Remember: pendulum accesses YOUR Higher Self—trust yourself
• Practice builds confidence

Problem: Answers Don't Match Reality

Possible reasons:

• You're influencing pendulum with your desires
• Question was unclear
• Timing has changed outcome
• Free will (yours or others') altered situation
• You misinterpreted the answer

Solutions:

• Check your bias—are you wanting specific answer?
• Ask clearer, more specific questions
• Remember: SRT shows possibilities, not fixed fate
• Review how you interpreted—was there another meaning?
• Learn from mismatches to improve accuracy

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use SRT on myself or do I need a practitioner?

Answer: You can absolutely use SRT on yourself. That's the beauty of it—it's a self-clearing tool. However, for very deep or complex issues, a trained practitioner can be helpful because they're not emotionally attached to your blocks.

How long does it take to learn SRT?

Answer: You can start using basic SRT immediately after learning the chart system (a few hours of study). Mastery takes practice—most people feel confident after 30 days of regular use. Advanced techniques take months to years to master.

Do I need official SRT charts or can I create my own?

Answer: Official charts are comprehensive and recommended, but you can create your own based on SRT principles. Many practitioners use a combination of official charts and custom charts for specific needs.

Can I clear blocks for other people?

Answer: Only with their explicit permission AND permission from their Higher Self. Never clear for someone without consent—it's energetic violation. You can always clear YOUR side of relationship dynamics without permission.

How often should I do SRT clearing?

Answer: Daily quick clearing (5-10 minutes), weekly deeper session (30-60 minutes), monthly comprehensive clearing (90+ minutes). Adjust based on your needs and what you're working through.

Is SRT safe? Can I harm myself?

Answer: When done properly with permission from your Higher Self and appropriate protection, SRT is safe. The system has built-in safeguards. Always ask permission, set protection, and trust the process.

What if I clear something I shouldn't have?

Answer: If you have permission from your Higher Self, you won't clear something that shouldn't be cleared. Your Higher Self protects you. That said, if you feel you made a mistake, you can ask your Higher Self to restore what was cleared.

Can SRT replace therapy or medical treatment?

Answer: No. SRT is a spiritual clearing tool, not a replacement for professional medical or psychological care. Use it as a complement to, not substitute for, appropriate professional help.

Why do some blocks take multiple sessions to clear?

Answer: Deep blocks often have multiple layers, related blocks, or serve protective purposes that must be addressed gradually. Some blocks are so foundational that clearing them all at once would be destabilizing. Trust the process.

Can children use SRT?

Answer: Teenagers can learn SRT with guidance. Young children should have clearing done by a parent or practitioner. The key is developmental readiness to understand the concepts and take responsibility for the work.

What's the difference between SRT and other clearing methods?

Answer: SRT is systematic and uses charts to identify specific blocks precisely. Other methods may be more intuitive or general. SRT's strength is its precision and completeness—you know exactly what you're clearing and can verify it's gone.

Do I need to believe in SRT for it to work?

Answer: You need to be open to it working, but you don't need blind faith. Approach it with curiosity and willingness to test it. Track your results. Let your experience build your belief.

Can I use SRT while on medication or in therapy?

Answer: Yes, SRT can complement medical treatment and therapy. However, inform your healthcare providers about all practices you're using. Never stop prescribed treatment without medical guidance.

What if my pendulum says I don't have permission to clear something?

Answer: Respect it. There's a reason—wrong timing, deeper work needed first, or the block is serving a protective purpose. Ask: "When will I have permission?" or "What do I need to do first?"

Can I do SRT while pregnant?

Answer: Yes, but be gentle. Avoid intense clearing sessions. Focus on light maintenance clearing. Always ask permission from your Higher Self. If in doubt, wait until after pregnancy.

When to Seek Professional Help

Consider working with a certified SRT practitioner if:

• You have very deep trauma or complex blocks
• You're too emotionally attached to clear objectively
• Blocks won't clear despite proper technique
• You want to learn advanced techniques
• You're experiencing crisis or emergency
• You want verification of your self-clearing work

The Bottom Line

Most SRT problems have simple solutions. Pendulum won't move? Relax and ground. Block won't clear? Check for deeper layers or meta-blocks. Getting inconsistent answers? Check your bias and rephrase questions. Feeling worse after clearing? Allow integration time.

SRT is a skill that improves with practice. Be patient with yourself. Track your results. Learn from challenges. Trust the process.

Your Higher Self knows what you need. The pendulum is the communication device. The charts are the language. The clearing protocols are the tools. Together, they give you everything you need to clear what's blocking you.

When in doubt, ask your Higher Self. The answer is always there.
