Level 2

If you have already been initiated into Level 1, you can go on to be initiated into Level 2. Level 2 gives you access to three energy symbols, which you can use independently or in combination with Reiki energy to achieve a wide range of effects.
The three symbols are the “Cho Ku Rei”, the “Sei He Ki” and the “Hon Sha Ze Sho Nen”. Translated, this means: the “power symbol”, the “harmonization symbol” and the “distance symbol”.
The possible applications of the three symbols are extremely diverse. The power symbol, for example, can be used for protection, activation or reinforcement. The harmonization symbol can be used to release energetic connections or to bring the unconscious into the conscious, while with the distance symbol you can send Reiki and the symbols through space and time.

The core message of the differences between Level 1 and Level 2 can be described as follows
With Level 1, you work in the here & now depending on the space, i.e. you place your hands in the place where you want Reiki to flow “now”.
With Level 2, you can work in the past & future regardless of space, i.e. you can let Reiki flow at “any” place and at “any” time.

The application possibilities are increased many times over in Level 2. For example, you can send Reiki to the cause of past energetic blockages, which in turn can have effects in the present. Or you can send Reiki into a future situation and thereby change the path to it.

The differences can also be described as follows:
At Level 1, you mainly work on the physical and energetic level.
At Level 2, you work primarily on the emotional and mental level.

Level 2, like all other Levels, is self-contained. Once the three symbols have been activated in you, you can use them for a lifetime without ever needing the Reiki master again. The energy vibrations have been activated and are available to you at any time.
