Definition: A form of divination, dowsing involves using some stick, rod or other device to locate things underground - usually water, oil, or buried treasure. Dowsing for water is also called water witching. Dowsers have offered all sorts of paranormal explanations and even scientific explanations (like some form of magnetism) for what happens, but that presumes that dowsing actually works. In reality, no controlled, scientific experiments have ever provided evidence that a dowser can find hidden water, oil, gold or anything else.
