Guest guest Posted August 15, 2000 Report Share Posted August 15, 2000 Hi Glaucely: Where did you hear that Reiki flows counterclockwise? I have been working with Reiki for around seven years, and although I will admit I have not done any studying of this specifically, I have never heard this. The only time I am aware of using the energy in a counterclockwise fashion is by focusing with symbols, and that is more of a winding up than a counterclockwise movement. The energy itself does not do it. Reiki is an energy that has a sort of alternate flow to the current, as opposed to a direct flow. It starts when it wants and can vary greatly in concentration, although most people report heat and tingling, both practitioners and receivers. Could you clarify a little bit more about what you are asking, and perhaps your lineage of Reiki so that I can have a better idea where this information is coming from?

Guest guest Posted August 16, 2000 Report Share Posted August 16, 2000 Hi Caroline and Glaucely, When I was first taught Reiki in 1992, I was taught that the energy is a white light, counterclockwise spiraling energy. My RM who taught this was taught by Virginia Samdahl (who I was told was very, very precise in her teaching) (Lineage is Reiki Alliance). The one connection I see is the spiral within the ChoKuRei...counterclockwise spiral. One of my students during his first attunement also saw the energy come in as a white light in a counterclockwise spiral - and this was without being told anything about it beforehand. We were also taught that, with Reiki, to " put the energy in " to always use counterclockwise spiral movements and that to use clockwise spiral movements would " take energy out " . Of course this makes it confusing with other energy work where to " take out " you would use counterclockwise movements and to put in, clockwise.
