Reiki Symbols

Reiki Symbols

Below are some of the Reiki Symbols that I use in the traditional Usui Reiki training. Different systems of Reiki offer different symbols.

Cho Ku Rei

Pronounced Choke-koo-ray

 

This symbol is used when you need to increase the power of Reiki energy. Takata Sensei called this the "Invocation of Universal Power".

 

You may use this symbol to "sandwich" other symbols

 

You may draw this symbol over your head (crown chakra) to improve memory, clarity or to locate lost objects.

 

Draw the Cho Ku Reiki on your palms before placing them on a hand position in a healing session.

 Drawing Cho Ku Reiki in the counterclockwise position "increases" the energy of Reiki. Drawing Cho Ku Rei in the clockwise position "decreases" the energy of the client. Be careful which you choose to do. Spirit blessed me with the knowledge of several other ways to use this symbol both for myself and in my healing sessions. I have included all these different ways in my book, Usui Reiki, Level Two manual. Visit www.lulu.com/Francine to preview book.

 

Hon-Sha-Ze-Sho-Nen

Pronounced Hone-sha-zay-sho-nen.

 

Called the Mental symbol and is used in long distant healing.

 

This symbol means "No past, No present, No future".

 

This symbol transcends time and can be used to heal past traumas or to send Reiki into the future for a specific event or happening.

This symbol contains 5 seperate symbols each with its own meaning. Their possible meanings are as follows:

Hon-Basis, Source, Origin, Principle, Essential thing

Sha-Person

Ze-Right, Just

Sho-Correct, Proper, Exact, Certain

Nen-Idea, Thought, Mind, Wish

 

Sei-He-Ki

Pronounced Say-hay-key

 

This is the Emotional Symbol and is used to clear mental or emotional blockages and affirm the positive in oneself or client.

 Be cautious in using this symbol in that it brings blocked emotions to the surface. Be sure that this is in the best interest of your client as painful and traumatic events could surface that the client is not prepared to deal with at that time.

This symbol is great to use on Alzheimer's patients or those suffering from memory loss.

Raku

Pronounced Ra-koo

 This symbol is used in the Master level of Reiki in the attunement process. It is used to seal the attunement process by closing the chakras of the student and to ground the student. It also plays a part in seperating the energies of the student and that of the master after the attunement has been completed thus ending the attunement process.

I have also used this symbol successfully in the break down of kidney stones. Using the Raku as a "laser" by focusing the energy on a specific spot or area. Be sure you know what you are doing if you plan on using the Raku symbol in this way. Breaking down a blood clot can have the clot travel to the client's lungs or brain and kill them. If you are unsure of how to use this symbol then don't use the symbol at all or ask the advice of a seasoned Reiki master.

Fire Serpent
The Fire Serpent is used in the beginning of the attunement process. It is drawn down the back of the client and is used to open the chakras.

I have used this symbol in opening the chakras of my clients when doing chakra balancing and toning healing sessions. When finished you just retrace the symbol from the bottom up to close the chakras.

Double Cho-Ku-Rei

Drawing the Cho-Ku-Reiki symbol in a clockwise fashion takes energy out.

 

Drawing the Cho-Ku-Reiki in a counterclockwise fashion puts energy in.

 

I have already used this symbol on a client who had an overactive chakra on the front and an underactive chakra on the back. I performed this simultaneously with one hand going in one direction and the other going in the opposite direction. This created a "balance" in the chakra.

 (This is true for those who are drawn to the Tibetans. If you are drawn to paganism the opposite will hold true for you.)

 

Modern Reiki Symbol

The Reiki symbol consists of TWO symbols:

 

"Rei" which has several meaning and conotations including: universal, spiritual, ghost, life, universal life force, etc.

 "Ki" which means energy, breath, etc.

So together "Reiki" can translate to mean "Universal Life Force Energy".
