Reiki Symbols

       Reiki symbols are basically Sanskrit derived Japanese forms that help improve the flow of Life Force Energy. These symbols are an art essential part of Reiki practice and they used to be secret and revealed only to Reiki students who are initiated into the advance or master level. However, with the technology available today it's hard to keep anything secret, so information about them can easily found on the internet.

       Although these symbols apparently may seem not have any special power in and of themselves, using them after attunement helps a practioner focus the Reiki energies. The primary three symbols are used in traditional Reiki are Cho Ku Rei or the Reiki Power Symbol, Sei He Ki or the Emotional and Mental Healing Symbol and Hon Sha Ze Sho Nen or the Distance Healing Symbol
