A beginner pendulum guide from preparation to daily practice.

1. Teach me "the first step of using a pendulum" in a beginner-friendly way: how to prepare the pendulum, how to relax, how to set the question, how to observe the swing direction, and how to avoid over-interpretation.
2. I want to learn the pendulum but do not want it to be complicated. Explain how to start practicing in a simple, stable, beginner-friendly way.
3. Based on the principle "there are many pendulum forms; finding what suits you matters most," compare the pros and cons of crystal pendulums, necklaces, pendants, and a needle/thread setup.
4. Design a pre-use pendulum checklist: environment, mindset, tool, question, record sheet, ending method, and safety boundary.
5. Explain the pendulum from a "connecting with the subconscious" angle: it can be a tool for self-awareness and intuition practice, but should not be treated as an absolute command. Give beginner instructions.
6. Generate a 7-day pendulum beginner practice plan, each day including one calibration exercise, one simple question, one record, and one review.
