[meme] December Blogging Day 12: Most Powerful Reiki Experience
tw: past traumatic event (Boston Marathon Bombing), grey magic, abuse reference
Dec 12th Your most powerful reiki experience (
ahavah)
I have two linked ones that I never talk about because for me it's intensely personal, but they're some of the more powerful ones.
Both of these are direct quotes from from my reiki/tulpamancy/daemonism/magic tumblr journal.

Thank god it’s over or well not over but the start is less harrowing now.
Right when the news picked up again, I decided somewhat intuitively to sit down and do a 15-minute distant session gearing protection toward the security folks. Lots of empowerment symbols interspersed with a peppering of mental-emotional symbols. I pulled 3 proxies and my reiki box into my little circle. That channeling came out in a RUSH through me. The only other time I’ve felt that much reiki rush through me was when i was working on my friend Matt back on the 8th!
When that rush died down, I dunno intuition decided it wanted to call in some grey magic. So I tied an intercession to one of my justice-oriented deities (a fictional deity at that)* onto a series of mental-emotional symbols, since as one of my other friends says, grey magic is a great lure and good at drawing out stuff that’s hiding and i think i read somewhere that you can use the mental-emotional symbol to gain clarity and FIND things.
I dunno, I figured the strings attached to this deity are worth pulling (he’s a grim healer in his own right, so reiki still works with him in my head).

I think my heart is growing a size.
I’ve been regularly sending reiki to my city and to the victims of last Monday….
But yesterday it occurred to me to ask Reiki if it would be willing to go to Tsarnaev and his family and if they don’t wish the energy freely given, to send it where it would do the most good.
It was Earth Day. I figured the Universe would know best.
Maybe some people would think ill of it. That why the fuck would I send healing and prayer to a criminal. But then I am reminded that one of my patron Goddesses is Kuan Yin and one of her most poignant prayers that I’ve ever found is Kuan Yin’s Prayer for the Abuser.
It’s the hardest thing in the world to show compassion for the most vile people in the universe but it’s the kindest and most right thing to do. The alternate route that the universe needs to take globally. And I’m glad to play my part in drawing the dream of peace to reality. Even when it means not being liked for what I do.
*Note: Fictional deity in question was Kushiel
