    I draw mine pretty small i guess.

    It'd be interesting to see if the female practitioners thought size matters, in Reiki? Very Happy

    That's an interesting question. If I draw a symbol
    in the air & it's about the size of my fist, I have
    not used much energy to draw it but If I draw a very
    large symbol in the air about 16" x 16" I use more energy....
    but I sense that you may be asking if I use a small symbol
    vs a big symbol during an attunment that there's a difference
    in energy being passed on to the recipient.

    IMO a symbol is part of the rituals that help us focus on
    balance & harmony. Each symbol has its own meaning and color.
    Energy is exchanged between the teacher & student. The size
    of the symbol does not carry more/less energy as it is just a
    symbolic expression. cyclops

    Very funny Wayne...lol

    The magik of the symbol is known to us by the connection we realize through being attuned to it, and by it`s use. I cannot see this being relevant to what size you choose, when you draw it. In fact, if one see`s a symbol in their minds eye clearly, it may not be necessary to draw it at all. I say this in regard to connecting with the energies represented by the symbol, I would always draw a symbol while attuning someone.
    This is a personal opinion. not backed up by anything or any source of info. I have a tendency to draw big ones, for whatever reason...However, saying it`s name or jumon associated with the symbol, does seem to enhance the mental/physical sensations i feel when working with the symbols...I would have to say...generally speaking, that size does not matter.

    you daft sod! I would have responded but me computer was playing silly beggars!!.......

    my response would have been, size does NOT matter, it is how one chooses to use it that does.....regarding all aspects of your thought process!! ahahaha

    ~~

    to be honest I very very rarely draw the symbols with my hands......I tend to draw them with my mind....

    and Solas, out of curiousity you mentioned that each symbol has their own colour?? care to elaborate a little.?... I have 'seen' the symbols in different colours but not always the same colour each time... I mostly see them as a beautiful silvery sparkling Light ....

    and I often find when working with people, particular symbols automatically draw themselves.......as though the recipient is needing the energy connection that that particular symbol can attribute.... and when I try and draw another symbol my mind wont let me.... anyone had this experience??

    When I was introduced to the symbols and their meanings
    Cho Ku Rei was green in color, Sei He Ki was purple &
    the Hon Sha Ze Sho Nen was gold....the Aura & Chakra's
    all seem to have similar colors...... Silvery Sparkling

    thats interesting Solas, there were no implications of specific colours connected to the symbols when I was introduced to them ........although I used to see a lot of purple energy when first working with Reiki...........and a client receiving distant reiki saw lots and lots of purple........but different people see different things.......

    I wonder if any others were introduced to sepcific clours for the symbols??

    Lavender is the color that I'm drawn too.
    Very few of my clients see colors. I'm
    told by other practitioners that color
    represent your spirituality.

    It seems that folks add their own touch
    when teaching. Some add crystals and other
    artifacts when teaching Reiki. There's got
    to be close to 200 different version of
    the Reiki System. IMO what really counts is
    that healing takes place. I know that many
    folks do want to be teach as close to DR Usui's
    style. I understand that his style was simple
    & passive.

    I just came across an article that states Black
    is a mystery color in Japan. I'll post the article
    in the coffee section sunny

    dear Shakti ~ Rising,

    when i had learned reiki it was said ckr for white,Shk for pink, dkm ( purpal), hszsn( gold) but in the begining i saw all symbol in white but after many year and constration of perticular colour i started to see the colour, now i can see the same colour but it takes time. So i am agree with you but chi-colas is also right.


    great keep it up

    Good god! You're not being politically correct, are you? How dare anyone invoke the words 'right or wrong' in Reiki!!! Blasphemy, hehe.

    Colour of a symbol, wasn't told that either. If given a choice, i'd have liked to know exactly why i place symbols in a head, instead. Suspect .

    don't get smart boy!! ahahah....when I said theres no right or wrong I was of course referring to how one sees colours regarding the symbols...as stated on that one, there can only be subjective experience...

    I would like to know everything about the attunement process from the attuners perspective...as I only took one part of my 'masters ' level where I 'received' the Master attunement but part two is wheere we would have been taught that...and I still haven't found the right person I want to take me to that level yet..

    exactly what are you able to share without 'letting out the secret or 'tainting' the sacredness in anyway...??

    Exactly, as in what the process is? On James' site, level 1 initiaton is similar to what i learned.

    There's many ways of explaining what goes on. Any way is cool. I try to look as deep as i can, that's good for me, perhaps useful for others also, i feel.

    In Reiki we got Usui sensei. He had this fantastic mystical experience. Cause of it, he could do miraculous things. He decided to emulate this, in initiaitons. and to pass some of this experience on. some might be deep, and say pass on some of his very own consciousness. This is why lineage is so important, and to be so respected, imo.

    Usui sensei empowered 2 symbols, and two Japanese phrases, to emulate certain abilities he had, to emulate a certain experience. What a teacher does, in initiaton, is place these lineage empowered symbols within another. To spiritually empower the other person.

    Whereabouts the symbols are placed can vary. Although, in the main, there's 3 key areas. IMO, the importance, or relevance to these placements in Reiki, is crucial. This doesn't mean if i intiated your nose, it wouldn't work. We gotta remember, folks whom have already recieved a spiritual empowerment, such as in Reiki, especially into DKM, can do things like Reiju, which confers some of it possibly, with less symbol influence. What i'm getting at here, is that it may seem that its not important where to place symbols, but if they're placed in key areas, there may be a difference. It may be sublte, or may take years, or more hard work, to realise.
