Symbols of Reiho
and Reiki Part II
Published in the June 2000 issue of "The Messenger"
This month’s article lists some fun ways to become sensitive to
energy. They are only intended to help a Reiki practitioner (or any
energy practitioner) to hone their sensitivity to subtle frequencies
of energy. I would suggest you begin experimenting with a few of your
favorite objects around the house. Gather 6 or so objects…. could be a
crystal, a statue, a clock, a stuffed animal, a small plant, a small
fish bowl with fish, a food item or any of your own favorite items. It
is good to have a friend with you for this experiment, who will
blindfold you, so you can’t peek at the objects. It is best to be
blindfolded, so you can’t see the objects. Then you hold your hands
open, palms facing one another (a distance of about 5 inches between),
arms and hands resting lightly on a table-top. Have your friend put
an object on the table between your hands and you just feel the energy
of the object, try to guess which one it is. Have your friend keep
score of your hits and misses. It won’t take long before you will be
getting more right than wrong and then it will be time to move to a
more difficult task.
Next you might want to get a deck of cards and
pick out 5 or 6 of the most commonly-popular ones; perhaps the four
Aces, and a Joker, or maybe four of the face cards (Queens, Kings or
Jacks) and maybe an Ace or Joker. Then have your friend shuffle the
cards, and pick one at a time, place it between your hands to perceive
which card you are holding. Give yourself 3 chances per card. When
you are pretty good at picking the card correctly, it is time to
gather several photos of family and friends… maybe 7 - 10 of people
that you know energetically. Again have your friend place one picture
at a time between your hands and just feel the energy of the person in
the photo, and begin simply by picking the sex, maybe the approximate
age, and then the name of the person you are holding. After some
practice, you will become quite accurate in your speculations. Then
set the objects aside for a while, and gather some friends together
for a ‘free Reiki treatment’. You will have a lot of takers....
Anything for free is quite popular. Placing one at a time on a massage
table or something similar (end of a bed, a cushioned table, a couch,
or carpeted floor, begin to scan their bodies from their head to
their feet, detecting and calling out any energy distortion (could be
hot or cold sensation, tingling, slight push or pull energetically
over a spot, even discomfort in your own body corresponding to the
similar area you are scanning) you feel, having someone write down
each area and what the sensation you feel. When each person has been
scanned, and the sensations recorded, have the recorder read out the
list slowly, asking for a response from the person just scanned as to
the accuracy of the reading. But do tell the person scanned that you
may be picking up energetically on some injury/trauma/surgery in the
distant past, recent past, and you may even pick up on an imbalance
that has not yet manifested in the body. After you have finished
scanning and verifying your sensations, you can finish the gathering
by doing Reiki on the ones that want to receive. If there are other
Reiki practitioners present, they can be invited to help with the
treatments. Now you can go back to the photos of friends and family
members, and scan them at a distance, recording all of the sensations
you experience. Then call, email or write each person asking them if
they are experiencing any imbalance in the area(s) you detected to be
out-of-balance. You can send them a distant treatment individually or
collectively…. time allowing. Now you are ready to extend your
intuitive sense to people you don’t know. Have your friends write down
2 or 3 of their family members or friends who they know to be having
health issues. They will write down as much as they know about each
person’s health on a piece of paper, then fold the paper several
times, so the writing cannot be read, stapled or taped shut, and the
person’s name, age, and location written on the outside of the folded
paper. Then again, put on blindfolds, have your friend hand you one
folded paper at a time, and you intuit the sex of the person, and any
other information written on the outside of the paper. Then you can
hold the papers in your closed hands, visualize the image of the body
of the person whose papers you are holding, and visualize being able
to see energy distortions within, on and around the body. Your friend
will write down your sensations, identifying each intuitive guess with
the name of the person. Then you will set the paper aside, create an
imaginary ‘light body’ (any size) between your hands, and scan the
image with one or both hands to intuit finer, more detailed analyses,
having your friend record that information also. You can remove the
blindfold, and have your friend read through your intuitive renderings
about each person individually, then open the sealed paper to check
the accuracy against the known health issues written inside. Record
the hits and misses.
Now you may want to keep the papers and photos
that you have worked with, and send distant Reiki to each as you have
time. Any intuited information that comes to you during distant
treatment you will want to write down. And then contact the friend or
family member who gave you the person previously unknown to you, tell
them about your findings, and ask them to get up-to-date information
on the condition of the person you worked on. You will be amazed at
the accuracy of your “guesses”. In fact, if you get more than 50% of
the health issues correct, you are definitely in the upper percentage
of sensitively aware practitioners in the world. Keep up the good
work, and let us know how these techniques worked for you.
Blessings
to you in your service to humanity.
