The Mahatma Reiki Symbols

One of the unique qualities of Mahatma Reiki, that is also true of Usui and the other forms of Reiki is the process of "attunements". You can read every book on Reiki and study the symbols but you will not have Reiki. It is during the process of the attunement that a Master/Teacher passes on the gift of Reiki. You become attuned to the frequency of Reiki, and will experience this healing power in your hands and body, profound peace plus an expanded level of awareness. Therefore to receive Mahatma Reiki, you will need to experience an attunement from a qualified Master/Teacher, usually in a class.

The more you use your Reiki, the stronger it becomes. The divine intelligence of this light energy flows through your crown chakra, down the chakras through to the heart and out the arms to the hands. You receive a treatment every time you give one. During the attunement process the chakras (or energy vortexes) in the body are opened and balanced and the symbols are placed in these chakras. Beings of Light work through the Reiki Master/Teacher to align the individual to the frequency of the Reiki you are working with. Mahatma Reiki is a very high frequency of energy. Reiki students who have learned other forms, report the difference in the power they feel immediately. New students to Reiki, also feel this profound peace and experience heat in their hands and a heightened level of awareness.

The symbols act as a bridge between our human existence and spiritual frequencies of energy. Through altered states of consciousness, such as meditation or prayer when doing hands on healing, we can access this highly refined, spiritual energy. What the symbols do in the attunement process is give you instant access to these spiritual energies. You will experience deep states of meditation as the energy flows through you, and prayer certainly empowers the process through right intention. However, with Reiki, neither is necessary, for you to experience a direct, instantaneous connection to God/Spirit the universal presence in this tangible way.

In each of the 3 Mahatma Reiki levels, you will receive three symbols, totaling nine in all. Each of these symbols is a profound empowerment, and gives you more tools in your spiritual toolbox with which to release the old and integrate the new. In the fourth level, should you choose it, you learn how to pass the attunements and to facilitate others experience with this energy.

In the first level, as in the Usui system, the first symbol is to bring in the power. The second symbol, Mara, is the Holy Mother symbol that enhances acceptance of the divine feminine within each of us. A beautiful symbol and energy that assists us to create our wholeness through healing and balancing that within us that has been denied or suppressed. The third symbol in Mahatma Reiki 1 is Zoh Vah. Zoh Vah is both a distant healing symbol and a powerful relationship healer. Referred to as the "love doctor", this symbol gently and powerfully cleans up any kind of disharmony in relationship. It assists one to release past negative residue from relationships that we may still be carrying with us, and is very effective in releasing past life issues. A loving and powerful symbol, Zoh Vah also enhances telepathic communication and intuition.

The second level of Mahatma Reiki, is a further expansion of your awareness. Symbol 4 called Jupiter releases the blockages to experiencing "abundance". The feeling of having more than enough of whatever it is that we might need in the moment. This 'more than we need in the moment' relates to every aspect of our life, not just money. With the embodiment of abundance also comes true freedom. The realization that the I Am Presence freely creates Good in our lives, without us having done anything other than realize it can happen. Such a joyous and heavenly experience is referred to as Grace.

The fifth symbol called Christ Light is truly powerful. It strengthens our connection to the God Light and fosters unconditional love in all circumstances. It neutralizes any disharmony and brings the healing of the Christ. Using this symbol in treatments and meditation, enhances on a soul level the qualities of the Christ Consciousness and Principle.

The sixth symbol is a profound empowerment called Trinity. Using this symbol empowers and cleanses the physical, etheric and soul of any impurities that may act as barricades to Ascension. Trinity greatly enhances treatments and meditation and expands our consciousness.

The seventh symbol called Ah-ra-mose- profoundly connects you to the original perfection of the spiritual cellular blueprint of the body, making this a very powerful symbol for physical healing. The eighth symbol Sekhmet can bring you into Goddess/God consciousness, and help facilitate information from higher source. The ninth and last symbol in this incredible system is Sa-ra-aten. This symbol opens the soul's eye, enabling one to feel greater compassion and see the good in any situation or person. It helps facilitate soul consciousness.

From reading this you can see the power and balance of having this powerful system at your daily disposal. The key for the new millenium is to access our own connection to God /All that Is, so that we get our own answers from within. Mahatma Reiki gives you the tools to do this and much more. You'll begin to live in the "I AM Presence" - the consciousness of God.  This is the daily experience of inner peace and joy that shows up in your life also as creative excitement in manifesting your heart's desires.
