Reiki Meditation and Prayer

For Summer Solstice, I did a meditation, and prayer.

The results of the Meditation are going to send me searching for something when I get a chance.

I also sent Reiki out towards both the Goddess and God.

I did some praying, for blessings, I had a union of a cousin, this weekend, among other things.

I took alot of pictures on Solstice.

I've used Reiki to help heal Bentley's stitches this past week.

Thoughts

Today I did a meditation. For 30 Minutes. Need to keep in mind, I need to either wear some slippers or some socks, b/c my feet get cold.

I watched two shows being Mediums: We See Dead People and Psychic Children: Their Sixth Sense. Throughout the morning.

My meditation was all over the map this morning, most likely b/c I haven't done my meditations like I should.

Activated Reiki. I didn't do so much w/ the symbols of Reiki, as activate my chakras, try and clear them out. My throat chakra was more work. It looked dark. Which most likely comes from the fact that I do not speak when I should, or that I keep things back. I usually wait a bit til it comes to a point I can't wait any longer.

Then I went down and out through the feet.

I saw yellow light, starting on the outside of my vision, and moving inwards. Like a yellow ring, and then it condenses to a yellow ball. I visualized my self in a stone round chair, w/ grass at my feet. Woods around me.

I say snakes. I python. I thought of wolves.

I thought of charging a white quartz and putting it w/ my bamboo, at the bottom of the dish w/ the rocks and water.

I thought about doing a garden w/ the symbols of reiki w/ it. I trying to think of ways to incorporate the Reiki into my art.

Towards the end of the Meditation, closed my chakras, and looked outside. At the tree and the rain coming down.

1300-1330pm Sunday June 3rd.

Memorial Day

On this day, the Memorial Day for the United States.

I offer this prayer.

I offer and send this Reiki, for the Men and Women in the Armed forces. I offer this Reiki for those who are left behind. I ask that Goddess Bridget watch over the families, and guide those that have passed to where they need to be.

Goddess Bless.

Walking

Today I did some walking, about 30 minutes and 1.020 miles.

During my walk I felt this great need to give some Reiki to one of the willows on my walk. The last major storm that we had come through did a great deal of work on the trees.

I just felt a great need to do some Reiki for her.

Thoughts

The moon was great, so beautiful, coming into work today, moments like those, make me wish I brought my camera with me. And I thought about bringing it too.

*-*-*-

I did a little ritual / prayer on May 1. And I enjoy using Reiki during rituals and prayer. The warmth I feel when doing Reiki is excellent and awe inspiring.

I find more and more that I enjoy talking to the Goddess. I find it comforting.

Lately though, w/ my reading into Native American and US relations, and current events I find that I have more questions then answers, and I find it comforting that I can talk to Her.

I find myself right w/ my choice to follow this path. And comfortable in my choice to be a pagan.

April 20, Prayer

Last night, I did pray again.

When I pray, or offer to Goddess Brigit, I use my Reiki with it. That is what I did.

I had a very good cry, it's what was, I felt needed, I needed to let it out, b/c I've been keeping it in all week, I would read the news, and get tears, but I wouldn't let it out.

Last night I let it out.

Goddess bless, those who have passed on, help there families, friends, and communities, move on.

I don't know what to ask for Cho, so I leave it up to Her, because I don't know what to ask.

Observations over the last 2 Days

Monday, April 16th

9:30am: A flash of Sensation of Wood, of being in the woods, of the smell of the Earth. Like reminding me of something, or a call.

11:30am and throughout my shift: A felt like crying while at work today, and still do. About the shooting at VA Tech. While I was was saying a prayer, and kept saying prayers throughout the morning I felt like crying.

Who do you answer a calling?

I lit candles after work, and before bed. For those that died today, as well as for the families, friends, and the all that were affected, including the gunman and his family. His family is going to get hit hard as well, being that it was their son or brother or cousin, that did this, but they may never have closure, as well as many affected by this, b/c the person who did this, killed himself.

Please understand in reference to the crying. I don't usually cry, I don't cry at funerals, I just don't cry, but lately, since starting Reiki, and meditations, my emotional side as been coming out of the shadow. Where I've hidden her most of my life. Emotions were not something I would release, not in public anyway.

Tuesday, April 17th

As I was getting ready for work on Tuesday, I smelled the Earth again. As I was leaving my room I smelled the hint of Rose w/ it. Was this from the incense that previous night. Or was it an acknowledgment.

I did another prayer tonight. I lit a candle for each direction, and burned more incense. Again for the families, and all those affected by this tragedy.

Is this because I'm more comfortable w/ who I am? Or my path?

Today

Today after work,

I felt again the need to send some Reiki Energy and to Pray, not only for the people who were killed but also for the the person who shot them, and their families and Friends.

I lit 6 candles, 1 for each direction, and 2 addl ones.

Lit some Rose Incense.

Prayed, sent some Reiki and teared up a little.

Goddess Bless.

VA Tech Shooting

I consider Minnesota and Wisconsin my home, but Virginia was my home for 13 yrs.

I have some good friends down in VA and NC, and it touches me in an odd way to hear VA hit the news like here:

http://www.nbc12.com/home/7044827.html

http://www.startribune.com/484/story/1123576.html

http://collegemedia.com
- is VA Tech's Website

I have friends and family who have friends that went to Virginia Tech, my brother goes to games there.

And it just, makes me feel bad when I hear of things like this happening.

So much potential was there in the 33 that were killed, so much potential gone.

*-*-*-*-*

Last night I lit some candles, and some incense for the victims and their families. And sent some Reiki. I felt that I needed to do this, and still need to do this today.

33 People are Dead, and it could have happened anywhere.

This week

On Sunday, I drew the 4 symbols in Reiki that I have learned.

The Power, Emotional, Distance, and Master symbols.

Then I traced over the precepts that I printed from the computer last week.

So now I have these hanging in my room, it helps me meditate easier.

*-*-*

Last night, I was worrying about a check that cleared for 50 cents less than I wrote, normally I wouldn't be so worried about it, except that this check was written to the county, and I would hate to have the county come looking for me for 50 little cents. So the bank will need to be called today.

Anyway, I was worrying about it, then in my mind I recited, 'just for today do not worry' and 'i have the resources to fix this' This helped me get to sleep really well.

Reiki

Yesterday I was brainstorming.

I today I realize a few things.

When I was attuned to level 3a, and Kristin, had attuned me to the master symbol and a meditation.

And I realized today, that doing the meditation, helped me accept my path.

I've always done back rubs, and foot rubs, and scatches of the back. Every one that I've done that with, always commented on how good it felt. One person, Maria, some one I worked w/ at Target, mentioned that she could feel the energy come through, while I did the back rubs for her.

I was always leary about turning my gift into a job, b/c i didn't want to turn something I love to do into something I hated. But Reiki helped me realize, that it wouldn't be something I hated. It would be something I loved to do. The Ren Festival helped to show that as well. It is something I love to do, and the Reiki enhances that.

So I started looking as schools for massage therapy, so I could work w/ that and Reiki.

Reiki has helped w/ meditations, my photography, and dreams both unconsious and consious.

Thank you, Kristin for introducing me to Reiki.

*-*-*-*-*

With this said, I'm going to take a page from a friend and turn this journal into my home for Reiki Journaling, I'll still post on my LJ and 360, but I would like to finish what I start this time.

Planning: Family and School

I'm planning a trip, it's up in the air at this point. But I'm going to put in for the time off, today.

Two trips, one in March and one in May, both to Wisconsin.

I need to email my aunt and my cousin, and see about hooking up w/ one of them and doing some family tree research, which would be the basis of the trip, and maybe even see the two schools I've been interested in seeing in Madison.

We shall see. Right now things are just in the planning stages.

I'm thinking about the leaving Friday after work, and coming back on Tues/Wed. But again, I gotta look at a few things, ask about coming in early and leaving about an hour early and friday so I can leave either before or just as traffic is starting.

But the dates I'm looking at right now, are St Patties day Weekend/following week, and Memorial Day weekend/following week.

I need to find a place to stay, and set some things up, today would be time off scheduling.

That feeling you get...

I ordered Druid Priestess by Emma Restall Orr, off ebay at the end of this last month.

I started reading it, while I was out at my Aunt's place. This morning I was reading bef. the shower, and during the reading, when the Author calls for help during an interview, reading that passage I got a my pringly feeling all the way down my head and on to my shoulders and arms.

It made me think of what happened when I had my first Reiki Session. Except here, I felt the pringly feeling all along the right side after the Reiki Session. Kristin the Reiki Master w/ one of her students, also a master did the session at the Twin Cities Yule Fest, put on by CUUPS, in 2004. Kristin had used a tuning fork, and I haven't had that kind of reaction to it, so I decided to go ahead and

It was then and shortly after that I decided that Reiki was one of the paths for me. And the following January 2005, I became level I and II certified. Reiki has been phanominal in mediations and healing since.

The following Spring in 2006, I rcvd ART level III.

I've decided that I will forgo the Reiki Level IV til after I go to school.

The Big Three O

So yeah, today I turned 30.

Last night I went to bed and meditation on the off chance I zonked out in middle of the meditation, w/ the intention to review and clear out the last year, in my mind.

So this morning I felt very refreshed.

I did a meditation and my goals/intentions for the year. Not going into it, personal and all.

Then about 1215 I left here and went out to see Sarah at Borders, we did do some shopping and had some lupper.

I enjoyed it, and was glad we were able to meet up for a birthday outing.

Today I got Loreena's new cd, a new brain sync cd, the aromatherapy bible, a book by Caitlin R Kiernan "threshold", a cover for Silver dragon, and a tape to play in the car, and a 365 day calendar of pictures from scotland.

Very productive day.

Need to call my brother back and Mark back. Mark to schedule the Astrology reading, and Mike, b/c he called and left a message of happy birthdays.
