Katya Ki

Everyone who’s interested in energy healing sooner or later starts thinking about receiving their Reiki Attunement – the initiation into Reiki System. There are many different opinions about if we can practice Reiki without an Attunement since we are all connected with the Universal energy Source, or not; if it’s necessary to receive the attunement from a Reiki Master or can we receive self-initiation from our Higher Self into Reiki system. Also, some people are not even sure what a Reiki Attunement is. In this article, I’ll try to explain the meaning and the purpose of the Reiki Attunement. After reading the article, you’ll be able to make your own decision on if you need the attunement or not.

So What Is the Reiki Attunement?

Introduction to the Reiki System always starts with the Reiki Attunement. A student receives the attunement from a Reiki Master Teacher. The Attunement is the initiation into spiritual tradition. This is an ancient way of transferring energy and sacred knowledge from one person to another, which cannot be transferred by means of words.

During the initiation, the reiki student goes through a process of adjustment. The result of this is the raising of his entire energy system to a higher vibration level. After the Reiki Attunement, a person acquires not only the theoretical and practical knowledge transferred to him by the Master-Teacher, but also he acquires his inner knowledge and revealing of his own potential in energy management. This internal knowledge over time takes the form of the practitioner’s special abilities, not only in the field of healing but also in the creation of his or her own reality.

Usually, when people say “the Reiki Attunement” they mean the ceremony of the initiation into the Reiki System. However, the Attunement is carried out by the Universal Energy in response to the intention of the Reiki Master, according to a certain methodology. That is, the transfer of internal knowledge and the revealing of internal capacity is carried out directly by Reiki.
The Reiki Attunement is a great mystery, during which there is a complete transformation of the student’s energy body. As a result, the student creates a deeper and stronger contact with his Higher Self. The Attunement, in fact, is a direct flow of divine (Universal) Energy pouring out upon man.

Misunderstanding Of The Reiki Attunement

Many people, even those ones who practice Reiki for years, have a misleading understanding of what the Reiki Attunement is. The most common belief is that the Reiki Attunement opens up energy channels and connects a person with energy Source. But it is very important to understand that the Attunement does not open and does not form any energy channels, as well as it does not connect a person to any kind of energy source.

The Reiki Attunement reveals the energy potential, establishes a direct connection between a person and the Primary source of Reiki. Thus, people who have received the initiation, become themselves a source of Reiki. Therefore, it is important to realize that a Reiki practitioner is not a conductor of divine Energy, but its source himself!

The main goal of Reiki practice is to be a pure source of divine energy. The healing process is possible only when the practitioner realizes his unity and integrity with Reiki.

The Reiki Attunement Ceremony

This Ceremony can be compared to a spiritual awakening. The initiation itself does not implement anything in man, but only reveals the inner potential, develops and enhances abilities inherent in each human being from birth.

During initiation, each student receives only what he/she needs, what he/she is ready for. So the sensations during the Attunement can be different. Some people feel the flow of energy, others feel the presence of the guardian angels, for some, the process of initiation is accompanied by visions, dizziness, feeling of loss of sense of reality, and some people simply don’t feel anything. Sensations during the attunement reflect only the level of development and openness of a particular student. Any comparison of sensations is incorrect since the process of accepting the initiation is very individual.

Daily Reiki Practice

The Attunement is a fundamental element of Reiki, however, by itself, without other components, it is useless. We can draw a parallel between the setting of a musical instrument and the Reiki Attunement. A musical instrument itself is useless if the person doesn’t know how to play it. In order to learn how to play, you need constant practice. The same is so in Reiki – in order to get any result, to see miracles and to develop special abilities, it’s necessary to practice Reiki every day.

After the Attunement, the energy must be integrated into all energy bodies. This process takes time. The less pure your thoughts and intentions are, the more energy blocks you have, the longer the period of time must pass from the first-degree initiation to the second one. Otherwise, the healing cleansing caused by the initiation may be incomplete due to the overlap of different crisis stages at different levels from the initiations of different degrees.

What Is The Healing Cleansing?

The healing cleansing is the process of your energy bodies cleansing. This process always happens, but every person can feel it in different ways. Cleansing can take place physically, emotionally and mentally.

Physical body cleansing is a type of the healing cleansing in which a person’s physical condition can temporarily get worse. It often happens that right after the Attunement people get sick. Most often, in the course of this cleansing, the immunity of the person decreases, there is an exacerbation of chronic diseases. The fact is that the human body is overloaded with toxins accumulated over the years, from which the body is urgently eliminating as a result of the Attunement.

Emotional cleansing is a type of the healing cleansing that provokes the emergence of various conflicts around the person. This is a result of his increased emotionality during this time.

Mental cleansing is a type of the healing cleansing which is manifested in the form of an ongoing stream of thoughts or in the form of unpleasant dreams and nightmares. During this kind of the healing cleansing, our thoughts, negative attitudes and beliefs are getting purified.

How To Facilitate The Manifestation Of The Healing Cleansing?

1. Reiki itself can help you with this

Invite Reiki with the intention to mitigate, as much as possible, the symptoms of your healing cleansing.

Place your hands on the part of the body that bothers you the most, or leave your hands in the gassho position. Relax and let the Energy work with you.

In 15 minutes, tell your gratitude to Reiki and your Higher Self for the healing.

2. Drinking water will help you to detox your body faster

In order to help your bodies detox, it is necessary to drink clean water as often as possible with small sips (preferably every 5 minutes).

You can also charge the water with Reiki to raise its vibrations. To do this, invite Reiki, hold your hands over the water (5 minutes) and charge it with positive intentions, such as:
“This water cleanses me from negative thoughts, negative energies, and negative attitudes. It charges me with the energy of love, light, happiness, joy, health, and harmony! I’m in harmony! I am happy!”

3. Praying will help you to adjust to the new vibrations

namaste practice image

In order to quickly adjust to the new vibrations caused by the Reiki Attunement, you should make praying your daily practice! You can read the following prayer during your Reiki sessions and every morning immediately after waking up:

“I tune myself with new high-frequency vibrations of Love, Joy, Unity, and Strength!

I call in my heart and in my life new high-frequency vibrations of the Universe and accept these vibrations in my life with love and joy!

With this appeal, I affirm my intention to advance, self-development and self-improvement!

From now on, every cell of my body is open to the Light of high-frequency vibrations of the Universe!

From now on, every particle of me is filled with Light and vibrations of pure love and transformation!

I accept all changes in myself with gratitude, trust, and love!»

The Bottom Line

The desire of individual students to go as quickly as possible from the first Reiki degree to the second and up, are usually dictated by their ego. It always turns into unexpected and very uncomfortable consequences. The process of healing cleansing in such cases is is set to turbo mode, and the energy of initiation becomes so powerful that it becomes unacceptable for unprepared bodies and levels of consciousness of the student. The results of such haste are always unpredictable and negative.

Don’t take the Reiki Attunement as some kind of “show”. Try to get rid of the expectation of some “miracle”. Only by letting your ego go will you be able to accept the Attunement in a proper way. Eventually, it will lead you to spiritual transformation and the revealing of internal potential.

The December Full Moon: Here’s How It Will Affect You

Published

22 hours ago

December 6, 2022

Katya Ki

The full moon rises on Wednesday, December 7th, 2022. According to Jyotish (Vedic astrology), it occurs in the sign of Taurus. In this article, I will share everything you need to know about the full moon in Taurus and give tips on how to make this time balanced and smooth.

When Is The Full Moon In Taurus?

The full moon will occur on Wednesday, December 7th, 2022, reaching peak illumination at 11:08 PM EST/ 8:08 PM PT.

The Full Moon In Taurus

During the full moon period, we are most affected by the constellation in which the moon resides. The December full moon fills our minds with the energies of the Taurus constellation.

During this time, emotional fluctuations can alternate with laziness and inertia. It is best not to plan events that require rapid response and instant inclusion in the process for this full moon period. This period is more suitable for completing projects that have already been started than for starting new ones.

This is a good time for self-development and spiritual practices.

In order to feel good, it is recommended to pay attention to the diet during the full moon and also a few days before and after it. It is important to reduce the amount of processed foods and give preference to vegetables and fruits. Fasting is not recommended during this full moon because fasting during this time can greatly destabilize the emotional state.

The Full Moon In Rohini Nakshatra

According to Vedic astrology, the December full moon occurs in the lunar mansion of Rohini Nakshatra.

Rohini is the Moon-ruled nakshatra that has a warm, passionate, and sensual nature. This full moon will create a perfect environment for our creative expression when our creative ideas can bring great gains. But we should not forget that Rohini is also a very materialistic nakshatra that may make our minds overly luxury-oriented so that we may become overly material and less spiritual. Don’t get caught in the illusion of a materialistic world and its possessions.

Vedic seers considered Rohini to be a conductor of cosmic energy that makes it possible to achieve the fulfillment of any desires. Rohini helps to materialize our intentions.

Health-Related Issues

Rohini nakshatra can bring such health-related issues as injuries to the face and neck, sunstroke, heart problems, high blood pressure, fever, pain or swelling about the breast, irregular menses, and aching calf muscles.

Lessons to Learn

The karmic lessons of this full moon are:

Learning how to control our desires;
Developing a sense of security, stability, and protection;
Meditating on the question: “What gives me a sense of satisfaction, what brings me joy?”
Working on eliminating financial blocks from our subconscious mind.
Taking our possessive instincts and jealousy under control.
Working on eliminating greed.

Taurus teaches us how to be more practical with our choices. This is the time when we have to rethink our priorities in life. Maybe it’s time to switch from a city apartment to a piece of land somewhere in the countryside. Or, maybe we should think about how we can become more self-sustainable and live a more simple lifestyle. It’s certainly the time when we have to learn to grow our own food and prepare for possible food shortages in the near future. Use this full moon to analyze your lifestyle and life priorities.

In the context of self-development, this is a great time to expand our consciousness. This is a good time for the following practices:

Shadow work and psychotherapy;
Practices of forgiveness and acceptance;
Solitary meditation;
Practices focused on releasing yourself from the victim mentality.

How to Work With the Full Moon Energy?

If we do not live in the rhythm of the lunar cycle, we most likely will feel mood swings and fatigue during the full moon. Moreover, our emotional and even physical condition may deteriorate. Therefore, it is very important to learn to live in harmony with the Moon, especially when it’s at the peak of its activity.

Spend this time during the full moon doing some introspective work. Don’t let your energy run rampant with trying to make things happen. Time spent in silence, prayer, and meditation will be karmically rewarded. No matter what’s happening around you, stay calm, grounded, and centered.

To harmonize the moon’s influence on our lives, we can perform moon practices and adjust our lifestyle to the moon’s vibrations.

Spiritual Practices For the Full Moon

#1: Filling Up With Lunar Energy

This practice is especially recommended for those who have mood swings and unbalanced emotions.

Instructions:

Place a glass of clean water on the windowsill (or next to the window) so that the moonlight reflects in it. Leave it there for the night.
In the morning, drink that Moon water on an empty stomach. Tell your gratitude to the Moon. Chant the Moon mantra: OM CHANDRAYA NAMAHA (108 times).

#2: Full Moon Mantra Chanting For Attracting Abundance

During the Full Moon, go outside (backyard or patio), and stretch your hands up to the Moon. When looking at the Full Moon, set your intention to attract abundance into your life and repeat the following mantra for 12 minutes: OM SHRAAM SHREEM SHRAUM SAH CHANDRAMASE NAMAHA

#3: Chanting SHRIM Mantra

SHRIM is the mantra of beauty, love, and delight. This is the mantra of Lakshmi, the goddess of abundance, wealth, and beauty. Chanting this mantra helps to expand the sense of beauty and attract love and abundance.

The Bottom Line

Every month the full moon gives us a great opportunity to reconnect with our shadow self, get rid of negative qualities that no longer serve us, and heal. The full moon in Taurus teaches us how to be more practical, creative, and less materialistic. Watch your desires. Don’t let your material possessions control you. But, at the same time, it’s a great time to understand your desires and goals better. Meditate on what you want to accomplish in life and why you want it. This is a great time to visualize and manifest your reality.

The Most Accurate Horoscope for December 2022

The Most Accurate Horoscope for August 2022 Image

This article will share the most accurate horoscope for December 2022 based on the Feng Shui flying stars chart. The horoscope includes predictions for different spheres of life and Chinese zodiac signs and essential tips for protection from negative influences of the month and the activation of positive events and good luck.

Horoscope Based On Chinese Zodiac Signs

I believe that the Chinese Horoscope is one of the most accurate horoscopes you can use to correct the month’s energy in your favor. I follow its recommendations every month, and it helps me attract positive events into my life and prevent unfortunate ones.

I often hear that astrology doesn’t affect you if you focus on positive things in life and follow the law of attraction rules. Yes, a positive mindset is very crucial; however, according to Eastern teachings, three kinds of luck affect each of us:

human luck;
earth luck;

heaven luck.

Your positive mindset is your human luck which is just 33% of your total luck score. Your heaven luck (another 33%) comes from astrology. And your earth luck (33%) depends on Feng Shui and the energy you surround yourself with.

Of course, you can rely on your human luck and believe that your positive mindset can help you overcome all the obstacles. However, let’s say something negative happened, and somebody yelled at you, or your husband/wife cheated on you, or somebody you love died. How many of us can stay 100% calm and positive in situations like this? You see, when you allow yourself to react to a negative situation in a negative way, you lose your human luck. Now you can rely only on your heaven and earth luck.

Ok, now let’s take a look at your earth luck. Is your house 100% balanced? Is it 100% clean and free of blockages? Does it have all the remedies and protection from negative energy? If your answer is “no,” you can’t rely on your earth luck. And now all that is left is your heaven luck that depends on astrology.

With the help of Chinese astrology, you can fix your situation, protect yourself from the negative influences of the month, and activate good luck! All you need to know is what type of energy rules the month and how to deal with it.

It can be quite dangerous to play around with the energy of the month. After reading my monthly horoscope articles, people who have started to follow all of the Feng Shui recommendations religiously have noticed significant improvements in their lives. Today I want to share with you these priceless recommendations for December 2022. I’m asking you to take everything you’ll read below seriously. It’s essential to get all the protection tools for the month because they are literally lifesavers!

To read your December 2022 horoscope, all you need to know is your Chinese zodiac sign. To do this, you just need to find your date of birth in the Hundred-Year Calendar (click here)!

Abundance Haircuts In December 2022: Good And Bad Days To Cut Your Hair

Published

November 30, 2022

Katya Ki

Abundance Haircuts is a sutra based on the Tibetan calendar. It reveals the negative consequences of cutting your hair on the bad days and the incredible benefits of cutting it on the good days. Dates of Abundance Haircuts are calculated according to extremely complex formulas by experienced Feng Shui Masters.

Most people in the Western world have never heard about abundance haircuts. While for Eastern people, it’s not a new practice. This article will share this powerful sutra and give you a calendar for abundance haircuts in December 2022, with good and bad days for haircuts. Pay attention to what day you’re picking for your next hair appointment – only choose good days for abundance haircuts in December 2022.

Why Is Hair So Important?

Since ancient times, people have given hair a sacred meaning. It was thought that people could connect with the Universe through one’s hair. Hair serves as an “antenna” and “guide” between our world and the world of Heaven. And so far, this knowledge has not lost its relevance. Hair connects us with Higher forces, cosmic energy, God, and Higher consciousness. By connecting through the hair to the Cosmos, we can fill ourselves with the energies of abundance and health.

best days to cut your hair in June 2020 Image

There were many beliefs associated with hair; some of them have survived to the present day. For example: in any case, you should not get a haircut by yourself, as in this case, deformation of your energy field may happen, which can lead to health problems and energy loss. It is also not recommended to get a haircut on the days of a lunar or solar Eclipse: the hair can suffer, weaken, and lose shine and volume.

What Are “Abundance Haircuts”?

It has long been known that there are days when it is especially favorable to cut hair. Among these days, there are days of “Abundance haircuts.”

Abundance haircuts are a special ritual to attract abundance flows into your life. It is good to say abundance affirmations and mantras on this day. So you will strengthen the ritual haircut and make it a more effective and efficient force.

Here are examples of the mantras:

For wealth and abundance: OM TARE TUTTARE TURE MAMA BASU PUSHTIM KURU SOHA
Mantra for vitality and life force increase: OM TARE TUTTARE TURE MARITSE YE TSE BHRUM NRI DZA SOHA
For fame, power, and charisma: OM TARE TUTTARE TURE BODHI CITTA SOHA
Mantra for health and longevity: OM TARE TUTTARE TURE MAMA AYUR PUNYE JNANA PUSHTIM KURU YE SOHA
For magnetism and attractiveness: OM TARE TAM SOHA

If you are not a mantra practitioner, you can use affirmations instead.
