Although there are other symbols used by some Reiki schools, there are only four that are in use in all schools. These four symbols are Cho Ki Rei, Sei Hei Ki, Hon Sha Ze Sho Zen, and Dai Ko Myo.
Western Reiki schools have slightly different meanings for each of these symbols than Japanese schools. Also, in Western schools, the symbols are referred to by their actual names. In Japanese schools, they are simply referred to by their numbers, as in first, second, third, and fourth.
We’re going to take a look at the four different symbols, including their functions, and the effects they can have on you when used.
Cho Ki Rei (pronounced cho koo ray) is also known as the power symbol. It is used for focusing energy, connecting you with the earth, purifying the body or inanimate objects, and it can also add additional power when used in conjunction with other symbols.
Its primary purposes include making an individual feel more grounded, the protection of an individual, the healing of illnesses and pain, and to purify things like rooms, homes, places, or food.
Sei Hei Ki (pronounced say hay kee) is known as the mental symbol or emotional symbol. It used to purify the spirit, the mind, and emotions, empowering the spiritual mind, and for promoting balance and harmony.
The primary purposes of this symbol are for healing mental issues such as depression, grief, or anger, to treat addictions or bad habits, and to promote love, forgiveness, and empathy.
Hon Sha Ze Sho Nen (pronounced hahn shah zay show nen) is known as the distance symbol. This particular symbol is a little more difficult to learn and master than the two previous symbols.
This symbol is used to connect the spirit to new levels of space and time, and to unify individuals within this realm. It is said that this symbol can project the Reiki to other locations or times, to connect with a higher power, and to connect with your soul or the soul of another person.
Dai Ko Myo (pronounced die ko mee-oh) is known as the Master symbol. It is considered the symbol of empowerment and mastership, and is the final symbol that must be mastered to attain the title of Reiki Master.
The symbol is primarily used to pass attunements, to aid in meditation, and it is used during Reiki treatments.

Reiki guides can come from the Angelic Realm; they can be Ascended Masters; or they may even have been our teachers here on Earth who have since crossed over. As a Reiki practitioner, one nice way to deepen your practice is by developing a relationship with your Reiki guides. Reiki guides can be thought of as intermediaries between yourself and Source. You may ask, “who are these Reiki guides”? Reiki guides are those in spirit form who assist us in our healing work here on Earth.
How do you know which Reiki Guide to call upon? If you have been trained in Usui Reiki, Dr. Usui and Mrs. Takata are always available to act as Reiki guides for you. In addition, the Ascended Masters Jesus, Mother Mary, Kwan Yin, Buddha, and St. Germain, and the Archangels Michael and Raphael are always at the ready to help and guide you in your healing work. One good way of identifying a reiki guide is to consider who you are drawn to; have you always prayed to Mother Mary, or were you especially drawn to Mrs. Takata when you were introduced to her during your Level 1 training? These are clues that you can use in determining who is making themself available to you as a Reiki guide.
Well, now that you have a sense of who your Reiki guide, or guides, may be, how do you begin to connect and work with them? A simple way to begin developing a relationship with your Reiki guide is to get a picture of that individual or individuals and began sending Reiki to them on a regular basis. When you send Reiki to a spiritual being, the Reiki energy will come back to you tenfold. Try it; it’s really amazing!
You can also create a small space in your home in order to honor your Reiki guide. This can be an altar of sorts, where you can place your guide’ picture, as well as anything else that resonates with you, such as a stone, crystal, or flower. By doing this, you will raise the vibration in that area, which will in turn raise your vibration, and help you to bridge the gap between your self and your Reiki guide.
Try saying a prayer asking for your Reiki guide’s help and assistance before every healing session. Say whatever feels right to you. When you begin connecting with your Reiki guide in this way, you will likely notice their presence in other areas of your life as well. After you have invited your Reiki guide into your life, it will be up to you to pay close attention to their presence and to accept and act upon their help. After all, their job is to assist us in aligning with our highest path and purpose, which is our healing work here on Earth. When we invite them in, they can assist us in everything we do, making our life here on Earth Divine.
