Reiki Symbols

Reiki Symbols Revealed

Many Reiki symbols have already been revealed and each of them is thought to possess a unique vibration of energy.

At one point, they didn’t have any names and were numbered from one to five. But later on, each one of them stood for something and here they are.

The first is called Cho Ku Rei and is referred to as the Power Symbol. In simple terms, this means, “put all the power of the universe here.” This allows the user to draw energy from the surroundings so you can focus it where you want it to.

This can be used to aid in manifestation, cleanse negative energies, empower other Reiki symbols, for spiritual protection, spot treatments, and seal the energies after the treatment.

Next is called Sei He Ki also known as the Mental Emotional symbol because it helps those who are suffering from an emotional or mental imbalance.

Sei He Ki means “God and Humanity Become One.” This enables the person to activate Kundalini during meditations, balance between the left and right side of the brain, bring harmony and peace, cleansing, improve one’s memory, clear blockages and align the upper chakras, provide psychic protection, remove addictions, and bad energies and negative vibrations.

The third is called Hon Sha Ze Sho Nen. This is a distance symbol that is used to enable the Reiki channel to be able to channel Reiki at a distance regardless if this event happened in the past, the present, or the future.

This is an aggregate from the 5 Japanese kanji namely; source, origin, person, right or just, correct certainly, and thought or idea. It is also known as a Buddhist chant which means right consciousness is the root of everything.

The fourth symbol is the Tamarasha. It is a balancing and unblocking symbol that may ground and balance energy.

The fifth and last symbol known as Dai Ko Myo is used to initiate a student to various initiatory Reiki degrees. This is considered to be the most powerful symbol and can only be used by Reiki masters.

This symbol is used to heal the soul since it deals with the person’s spiritual self that can cure a disease or illness from the source in the aura or energy fields. It can also provide enlightenment and peace as it allows the person to become more intuitive and psychic.

Each of these symbols is activated by drawing them in the palm of your hand, visualizing it, or spelling the symbol’s name three times. Then this is placed or drawn on the client’s chakra, hands, or wherever this should be treated.

Symbols have power and if you can’t remember how to write it correctly, try recalling the alias because this can also be used to harness that energy. With practice, you will no longer need to remember how they look because you will be able to harness it when needed.

The Role Reiki Symbols Play

One of the significant things that a person planning to get into the practice of Reiki must know is the Reiki symbols. This is because these symbols play a vital role in carrying out this unique form of spiritual and physical healing.

Known as cryptic symbols used in early practices of the traditional Reiki, these symbols were in the shade of controversy for a long time. They were also a source of confusion especially for starters in classes because they were not taught to students until they moved on to the second level of spiritual healing. It took researchers a very long time to decode the original Reiki symbols because different Reiki masters made many variations.

As time went by, more and more Reiki masters wanted to have their variation of Reiki as a form of spiritual healing, thus, leading to many variations of the symbols that were used in the practice of Reiki. To be able to clear the controversy that surrounds Reiki symbols, many Reiki masters came out with a book containing the "supposedly" original Reiki symbols that are used in the practice.

This, somehow, cleared the air of confusion among Reiki students but degraded some Reiki masters who have a higher level of practice because now, even the neophytes can learn the secrets to the Reiki practice that took a long time before they can truly master.

Aiding Effective Practice Of Reiki

Today, there are still many variations of Reiki symbols depending on the school where it is being practiced. However, four symbols remain standard in all Reiki classes. The following include:

The Power Symbol or the "Cho Ku Rei." Translated as "put all the power of the universe here," Cho Ku Rei is used by many Reiki masters because it increases the focus or the power of Reiki. Cho Ku Rei is usually used before beginning the practice of Reiki because it increases Reiki power and is also used at the end of the session for the Reiki healing powers to be sealed. It also cleans and protects the person or other things from possible supernatural assault.
The Mental-Emotional Symbol or the "Sei He Ki." In English, "Sei He Ki" means "God and humanity become one." Reiki practitioners use this symbol in balancing the left and right sides of the brain to be able to achieve peace as well as harmony. Primarily, Sei He Ki is used to aid the healing of imbalanced mental-emotional levels of a person. People who are problematic in the fields of relationships, mental issues, emotional imbalances, lack of memory, and addictive problems are advised to use this Reiki symbol.
The Distance Symbol or the "Hon Sha Ze Sho Nen." This Reiki symbol is used to clear a person's emotional and mental state and aids in enabling the channels slowly. In Kanji, the phrase "Hon Sha Ze Sho Nen" can mean five different meanings that include: origin or source, person, just or right, certainty or correctness, and an idea or thought. Primarily used to send Reiki channels in a distant space or time or space, this symbol is used by more and more Reiki masters to be able to send the power of Reiki in the past or the near and retrieve it when needed.
The Attunement Symbol or the "Dai Ko Myo." This symbol is primarily used to aid the student in achieving different levels or degrees of Reiki power. Also known as a symbol of wisdom and a gift of insight, Dai Ko Myo is considered an effective symbol for cleansing and healing a person's soul and spirit.

Now that the Reiki symbols have been revealed, you will now be able to use them. Just remember that it is the intention that matters because as mentioned earlier, each of them is used for various things.

Reiki symbols have been kept secret until recent times. It is thought that you can't use the symbols until you are attuned to Reiki. These symbols represent the energy and power that is used during a Reiki treatment. They help the practitioner increase the energy flow in some areas if needed. Of course, there are variations to these symbols in the different schools of Reiki. They all represent energy and they all work the same. It is what they mean that gives them their power.

Air over the affected limb or body part and push it down into the body. This helps to anchor the healing intent of the practitioner into the patient's body. You can also use this symbol to charge crystals or even the food you eat at every meal.

Sei he ki is the mental and emotional symbol. It helps the Reiki to harmonize all parts of your psyche together. It is sometimes used for getting rid of bad habits or helping to begin a new regimen in your life.

Hon sha ze sho nen is the distance symbol of Reiki. It helps you connect to issues of the past, present, or future. It can help with some past life issues as well. You can also use the symbol when doing distant treatments for patients who can't travel. Some masters use it at the end of a session to help anchor in your treatment and to say thanks for allowing them to help you in your recovery process.

Dai ku myo is the master symbol. It activates Self-empowerment and opens your spiritual connection. It is believed that this symbol will work at the genetic and cellular levels. It connects us to God as well as our higher selves. This is also the symbol used by Reiki masters to activate the attunement process. It has also been used as a protection symbol. You can draw it on paper or in the air whenever you feel frightened.

Using the right one is the only way you will be able to solve a problem whether it is physical, mental, or psychological.
