how many attunements for each level???

Hi there Butterfly!

I was only attuned twice for each level - one was distantly and one was personally. I am now a reiki master too, and I do the same - one distant and one personal attunement ceremony. As long as the symbols are intentionally and actually placed in the student's aura, then the reiki energy is then free to flow.... There are so many different variations aren't there, and I was quite confused - as sometimes there seems to be information overload!! However.... now i go with my gut and follow my instinct much more. I know what i personally do works for me, I follow the reiki principles in my life and i am happy with my personal reiki practice, so that's good enough for me!!

As far as the Raku symbol goes, i was attuned with it too, and i was taught that this was an extra strength supplement power symbol... so when the power symbol needs a power boost, or you need an instant blast of reiki raku can be used!

Hope that helps!!!
Hugs,
Dipti xx

thank you

thank you for your reply, yes i do find it very confusing too, so i will go by intuition and intent...sometimes getting other peoples opinion can help ,but can also make it even more confusing:confused:..ive just started writing my manuals up even that it stressful,when i was given mine it was only 4pages lol..blesings x

Hiya

My attunement consisted of one at each level, following the Diane Stein book and method, which I now use. You might find the aetw Reiki site useful: [DLMURL] http://www.aetw.org/Reiki [/DLMURL] it's full of free stuff you can use and good links.

Good luck with your next course!

hi

Hi Chris,i can't seen to open up that website you recommended..x

well ive now found out that level 1,2 and masters, there are 4 attunements to be given for each,is this right? i cant even remember my attunements but im sure they wasn't four,may be 2..so can someone advise me on this, also what is ment by the four attunements are for each level?:confused:,level of what? do they mean spiritual level?dont mean to sound dumb but my master was very uninformative and now has disappeared of the face of the earth.

I don't want to sound mean, but if I was taking a Reiki course and the Reiki master said that, I would be really concerned about their ability to teach me Reiki. Do you not think it would be a good idea to actually take a good Reiki masters course so you can teach Reiki well? It just seems really unfair to your students. Just my honest opinion, no offence meant.

The issue of attunements is dependent on the type or style of Reiki you are teaching. Since you cannot get hold of your Reiki master, do you have any contact details of the other students on your masters course? Maybe they could help you? The other thing you could do is ask if any HP members locally to you are teaching a masters course in the near future and see if you could sit in on it for free? Failing that, you may want to re-take your masters course with a Reiki master that you feel more comfortable with.

Hi Julesk, thank you! yes i see the concern on my limited teaching ability at my masters level, but unlike my master i want to do the teaching/attunements to a high standard,hence why i'm on here getting other peoples opinions and advice, which is what this forum is used for?.I have two students coming to me next month but unless i feel confident i will postpone till i do. At the moment im retaking my masters level and attunement to boost what knowledge i do have. bright blessings

Amount of Attunements

I've recently finished my master teacher level, and was given examples of several different attunements. I was informed to spend time trying each one and eventually I would become more comfortable with a particular style, and my intuition would begin to play a large part of each attunement. the most important part is not the ritual you go through but the intent behind it. I was given a short example to practice and a very long example, where every symbol was put into each chakra point from behind and in front of the student, and onto the palms and the backs of the hands.
There are some good examples in Dianne Steins book and online by peggy jentoff

thank you workev, i will look in my diane stein book, and check out that that site,there are so many different ways, but have decided to go with whats best for me and most comfortable with, its all down to intent at the end of it..blessings

I have found with all things in reiki that simple is best. The minute we try to over-complicate things, we get tangled up and intent is unclear. With your manuals and your attunements, go back to basics, go within yourself and ask your self what feels *right*. Go with your inutition and trust that reiki knows what it is doing and where to go.

NB - I was interested in Dipti's comment about Raku! I was taught it was simply a symbol to draw down the back to close the session... since I know a little about symbolism and how the word 'raku' is applied to a firing technique in Japan, I was understandably a little perplexed. Same when I found that the symbol Yod was Seikem in origin and not Usui as I'd been told...

Hi all,

With the Raku, I was taught that this is used for the initiation ceremony as well as DKM. And, as a master, you can use it as a "blast", not if you haven't been attuned to the master level. Does that make sense??!:confused:

I'm so thankful this forum exists, it's such a great source of support! 😀

Please correct me if this isn't the case!

Hmm, thank you. I shall have to sit with the symbol's energy and see what it tells me.
