Why is pendulum used as a common tool to hypnotize people?
It is because pendulum swings from left to right and right to left. The person asked to look at the pendulum would need to keep moving his eyes left and right. After a while, the eyes become tired and the mind begins to feel drowsy.
This is when he begins to enter into a trance. And trance state is a phenomena of hypnosis.
