Fire Serpent Symbol

In Raku Kei Reiki and in Karuna Reiki there is a Tibetan symbol used that in English is called the FIRE SERPENT Symbol.

It always seemed incongruent to me to have generally all the symbols in their native tongue but have a very powerful symbol spoken in English.

So I did some searching and discovered the Tibetan name for the symbol.

Here is the information I found.

Nin Giz Zida (See Also Fire Serpent) - A "Tibetan" symbol used in the Usui/Tibetan tradition. The Fire Serpent represents the "Sleeping Serpent" coiling at the base of the spine. The fire Serpent is used during an attunement with horizontal line over top of crown, snaking down the spine, and spiraling clockwise at base of spine; grounds energy into lower (feet to tailbone) body.

By reversing the spiral (counter-clockwise) starting at base of spine, snaking up spine and ending with horizontal line over the crown; it pushes energy up to four upper chakras. It does not allow energy to escape out of crown chakra. The fire serpent connects and opens all chakras. It opens the central channel allowing the flow of Kundalini fire. It can be used in healing or meditation for more balance and receptivity.

Wanna know something interesting? I started painting symbols that resembled the Raku/Nin Giz Zida about a year if not more before I actually learned to practice Reiki. I was obsessed with this symbol.

When I received my in person Usui Reiki/Raku Kei Master initiation this symbol was used in me. I had never seen this symbol before. Of course it was only recently (this week) as I was looking at old paintings that I noticed the resemblence. I found this Nin Giz Zida to be very powerful. Likened unto an energetic lightening bolt.

New Day New Compassion

Just for today I seek to be more compassionate not only to myself but to my fellow human beings.

The theme of compassion and unconditional love has been tracing in and around my life especially the last two Gregorian years.

Compassion calls one to let go of their fears and worries and to step for in unconditional love and mercy. These are qualities that exist in all of us from the time of our birth. As a result of various stresses and pains that have struck us throughout our lives many of us have constricted not allowing compassion and unconditional love to manifest.

The practice of Reiki is a wonderful healing method that begins within. The new Reiki practitioner is called to first work towards healing his or herself before attempting to help others to enter their own healing.

The process of healing requires that one steps forward in compassion and love whether the healing is taking place within (self healing) or with out by assisting others in their personal healing. Healing is a process which can take place on one level or several levels. Various levels of healing include spiritual, emotional, mental and physical.

Karuna Ki Reiki has been a beautiful practice in my life. I feel more and more called to manifest it in my life on a daily basis as I feel called towards a greater and greater amount of compassion and unconditional love. That compassion and love which I so readily shared as a child but somehow closed up as I became an adult.

As I am working towards calling more compassionate energy into my life I also feel that this is a Universal need and not just my own.

Early in 2008 I was initiated into Karuna Ki Reiki. I have found that Karuna Ki Do offers much to one's Reiki practice once it is employed.

Now, today, I have decided to offer Karuna Ki Reiki Attunements to those who are interested in this practice of connecting with the compassion, unconditional love and mercy of the Source of Life.

You may find below more information on Karuna Ki Reiki and my attunements. Please feel free to email me. If you are interested in ordering the attunements we will work together on scheduling attunements for simulataneous attunement and acceptance of the attunements.

Fees are for the block of time I set aside for attunement, continued support and for handsigned certificate that will be mailed to you.

The Karuna Ki Reiki attunements are offered to Usui Reiki Master level practitioners.

Karuna Ki Reiki

Karuna Ki is an art that was developed from Vincent Amador’s practices with Karuna Reiki(R) and the Karuna Symbols.

Karuna Ki is the Way of Compassionate Energy and a Healing and Meditative practice using the Karuna Ki energy and symbols to be the Divine Heart of Compassion.

Karuna Ki shares the symbols and early development with Karuna Reiki (R), and Tera Mai-Reiki(R).

Karuna Ki has new attunements and Karuna Ki Do meditations, and is a new development apart from either Karuna Reiki(R) and Tera Mai-Reiki(R).

The basic principle of Karuna Ki is the connection to (and becoming) the embodiment of compassion both for healing self and others, and to send healing and compassion to all creation. The attunement and subsequent meditations link us to the compassion of God (which we all already are and have!), and it is through this power that we heal.

Karuna Ki Reiki Attunement Levels:

Karuna Ki Reiki Master**Karuna Ki Reiki Level One **Karuna Ki Reiki Level Two
