At the end of June I will be headed for my Level 1 of Reiki training. At the end of July I plan to attend the Level 2 workshop as well.
To prepare myself, I have been incorporating more yoga and meditation to my life. I felt as though that would be a great way to become more centered. I've also been reading up on chakra's and purchased new crystals that spoke to me.
It never occurred to me to actually read up on what to do. One of the steps I should have done was actually have a reiki session with my Reiki Master who will be teaching the course. I suppose I still have time to do that, but I'm pretty committed to the Level 1 training with him. I will say that is part of the reason I have not signed up for Level 2 with him since I wanted to wait and see how Level 1 went. Everything else I've been reading says to work on your meditation, but it says just the week before. Nope, I'm committed to my meditation (she says on day 4) so I'm going to keep it going all month long! Plus, today is National Meditation Day (did you know that was a thing?) so I'm happy that I've started incorporating this into my daily routine.
What's funny, 15-20 years ago when my Mother started upon her journey with Reiki, I would visit a friend of hers for my sessions. My Mom would always offer me healing, but I never really felt it was ok. To this day she offers to heal, and to this day I love on her for that, but she's done so much for me, I don't think I can ever ask her to do that. Now, as I start my own journey, I understand so much more her desire to help me. That's why we go down this path isn't it? To help others.
I'm very excited which is why I'm writing about this today. I look forward to the training and the internal surprises that are in store for me. I will continue to read up on how to prepare, and will share what I end up doing and learning so that others can learn! See, there's that helping again :)

Welcome and getting started
If you have stumbled upon my blog, I thank you. I realize I will be learning to navigate many tools as I post. I know I will be rather boring in the beginning as I get used to this habit again.
I am just re-finding myself, as one tends to do throughout their lifetime I suppose. I hope to use this blog to help you navigate yourself to the best of your ability...perhaps it will also help our energies combine!
During my meditation last night, I used the basics from the Color Magick (CM) book by Raymond Buckland, I started to see things that I haven't seen in a long time. I felt connected to the spirit world. I also felt a warning, a prepare for battle type warning. Historically when I would meditate in this realm, it was to help find answers. Last night it was simply to be, no questions, no searching, just to recharge and be. Funny how that is when we can receive strong messages. I plan to return to my meditative state this evening and for the next 9 days to see what other messages I receive.
As one who has always connected well with unicorns, seeing a dragon was a surprise. My beautiful open field where my unicorns would greet me, just at the edge of the woods, was not there. Instead, there was a dragon flying around, warning me to prepare for battle. Not battle with him, but battle.
Have you ever completed a CM meditation before? Were your images strong? The messages clear? I realize it's been a while, but I was rather shocked at how clear the messages were to me.
In addition to CM, I embark on my reiki training in less than one month. It's funny, 15 years ago when my Mother was becoming a reiki master, I had no intention of following that path. It's funny how the path finds you...energy has always been something I am aware of. I've used CM in one way, shape or form for years, but I'd let it slide away...and now as I am returning and excited to play with more energy work, I feel like a child, a very excited child knowing she is about to get a new toy. But, I will be cautious and heed the words of the dragon.
