there is something called dowsing. in this people take some stick or
pendulum or something in there hands and match the vibrations and
predict things.

it is really being used mostly to predict the existance of water under
the earth.

though its scientific basis has not been theorised till date.

in absence of any scientific explanation, it gets clubbed with
doomsayers who had said that this earthquake occurred die to total lunar
eclipse last month and due to saturn and jupiter turning maargi (direct)
from vakri (retrograde) a day before earthquake.
