Chakras are the energy centers of the body. They are located in the astral body along the spine, starting at the base of the spine and running upwards to the crown of the head. The Chakras coincide with a gland in the physical body and each radiate a specific color and energy.
Crystal Healing is a form of healing that uses crystals or gemstones, which are placed around different areas around the body to direct energy flow towards the affected area to heal and restore balance. They help in releasing and clearing negative energy, thereby assisting in energy healing.
Tarot is the storybook of our life, the mirror to our soul, and the key to our inner wisdom. Every spiritual lesson we meet in our lives can be found in the seventy-eight Tarot cards.
Level 1 is a practitioner's initiation into reiki and is open to anyone. The focus during Level 1 is on opening the energy channels on a physical level.
Level 2 gives students the skills to practice reiki on others and open energy channels more deeply. Students also receive their symbols during this level.
In many courses, the Third Degree and Reiki Master are the same designation. However, some teachers separate Level 3 from Reiki Master.
