Reiki and the "As Above"



The ‘As Above' energy is the stars, the planets, the sky, the air, the mind and the universal space above us. So, why would Reiki make a difference?  Reiki is a tool specific to the energetics of alchemy, like an antenna that connects us immediately to a frequency. This radio signal brings the amazing quantum energy into sync with that particular signal. Cho-Ku-Rei, for example, is the power switch that allows energy to flow and channels the light universal vibrations to come directly into us. Dr. Usui’s initiation of this energy is such a tremendous gift for us. In Shamanic practices, earth medicine brings together the “As Above” with the “So Below” to show us connection and contrast.

Everything has contrast, with two sides, such as positive-negative, light-dark, and yin-yang. It provides balance to all things, and without it, how would we know all the possibilities that could exist, ‘good’ or ‘bad’? In the moments of navigating the world as it is today, we have these fantastic Reiki tools at our disposal at all times. Cho-ku-Rei allows me to empower myself to connect with my inner medicine wheel, observe energy that may not be flowing well, and be grounded. This one symbol can do so much. Even when I connect to the alignment of the planets and their movement through the cosmos, it magnifies a truth and brings it closer to me. Light or shadow, it does not matter. I have learned to hear and experience everything, not just the pleasant things. I learn from the contrast of experiencing the 'unpleasant things’ too. What I have definitely found is the next direction or experience that will move me forward on my path, whether smooth or bumpy.  I practiced this during my mini holiday last week. 

Although it was great to go back to my childhood home and see friends and family again, I couldn't wait to return to my sanctuary. The energy in this new location, from this group of people, was random and unpredictable for me. By engaging with my Reiki and Earth Medicine tools, I was able to remain grounded in the moment, and I needed less time to realign and settle back into my routine upon returning home. I especially noticed that through this work, I was able to discern what was not mine to do, and I avoided getting entangled in energies that were not mine either. I was able to remain neutral, with no story and no fuss. I simply moved the timeline to where I desired to be. Cho-Ku Rei does this immediately.

When invoking the Cho-ku-Rei symbol, take your time and do it with intention and focus.  Pause and wait to feel the energy.  Really, DO NOT RUSH. Feel it, know it, and understand it. Even if we are seasoned masters and have been doing it for a long time, this is all the more reason to do this step with intentional clarity and smoothness. As the veils are so very, very thin, you may be surprised by the magic and how reality can change into beauty so quickly. If we spend too much time in a single state when we're out in the world, we can get stuck. If we no longer like this experience, we sometimes forget that we have the power and tools to change it. Reiki keeps us tuned and connected to creating our desired reality. 

Tips for aligning with the “As Above”:

1. Invoke Reiki. Use the Cho-ku-Rei and Sei-he-ki symbols and ground them into the Earth. Be slow and precise, and pause for at least 40 to 90 seconds after you invoke the emblem.
2. Energy flow. Breathe and move the energy down to the one-point (Tan Tien).
3. Observe. Notice what you are feeling, knowing and experiencing.
4. Reframe. Lose judgment and get out of right and wrong.
5. Ceremonies. Continue with rituals that help you connect to the elements, especially air—the mind.
6. Time out. Remove yourself and listen to what the body is relaying, then take action to mitigate any energy loss. Do not allow yourself to give away or lose energy because your ego is struggling with the energy of others.

If you need help facilitating any steps or still feel stuck, reach out. A little guidance will take you far. Alternatively, try a Tarot/Oracle Reading from Ki Lifestyle and a Shamanic Akashic Record reading. Shamanic and Reiki sessions are also available for assemblage shifting or other issues. These tools help gain insight, identify what keeps you stuck, and create strategies to achieve your goals.
