What are the Reiki symbols?
There are four symbols used in Usui Shiki Ryoho Reiki, and four symbols used in Komyo Reik Kai. Practitioners learn three of the symbols (for both systems) when attuned to Reiki II, and the last at the Master Level. The symbols are used to magnify and focus the healing energy during a session. They are also used to activate the Reiki energy in the palms of the student during an attunement. The symbols vary slightly per system of Reiki, but serve the same general purpose. You will not find the symbols published anywhere as they are sacred to Reiki practitioners.
