Hi
Do you consider it possible to access the collective power of a symbol without being attuned to it?
Is it important that you are aware of the purpose/use/focus of a symbol to access its power?
Please share your experience and opinion.
love
Michael

Hi Michael Great question ;D I don't believe that you have to be attuned to a symbol to access the power of it. I often meditate on symbols that I am not attuned to, it is a great way to experience many different sensations. For me, I think it is best to have a bit of knowledge about the symbol to get the full experience of it, but then I've never tried it with a symbol that I haven't done a bit of research on beforehand ;D Maybe I'll hunt for a symbol that I've not come across before and try it out ;D love stef  |

Please share your experience and opinion. love Michael Yes, I most definately think it's possible - the symbols are simply focal points for the universal energy which everyone has access to all the time - most people just don't know they have this access. There is no purpose/use/focus of a symbol other than what I place on that symbol - the purpose/use/focus comes from my thought not from the symbol. You could use this "(*_*)" as a symbol and give it a purpose if that is your intent. My experience has been to use whatever 'symbol' comes to my mind to help draw the focus into my intent. namaste |

Hi Michael,
Two very good replies so not much left for me to say ;D intent is the key to using any symbol you don't have to be attuned to use them ;D
love,
Mick

So is it safe to say that even Level 1 student use these symbols during the healing session (CKR in particular)? The reason why i ask is because i read somewhere that some tradisional Reiki school only allow the student to use the symbol after Level 2 attunement.
Thanks in advance!

Hi argonauty, Yes you can use the CKR or any of the reiki symbols you were attuned using all the symbols in your reiki 1 attunement..  tradisional Reiki schools will tell you that you can't use them or do distant healing but you can anyone can, you try it and see what happens love, mick |

Hi argonauty Some people still teach that the symbols are sacred and should be kept secret......but they aren't, many of the symbols have been on display in Buddhist temples for hundreds of years. The symbols are there to help us focus our intent, they are available for all to use, whatever level or style of Reiki you are attuned to......and even if you are not attuned to Reiki, there is no reason why you can't use the symbols for meditation. love stef |

I did some experimenting with a friend, she is not attuned but I showed her some of the Symbols and she could use them getting the same result as I did when testing. But then that she is a healer already but she uses a portal of light to heal instead of Reiki.

reiki may not give you what you want, but it will give you what you need..
