THE TEMPLAR DEGREE

The Templar Degree is the symbol of Oneness and the manifestation of Christ Consciousness into our world.  The symbol was received through a transmission from the Ascended Master Sananda and Archangels Metatron and Melchizedek in July of 1998 by Reiki Master/Teacher, Darla Traylor.  The attunement is to be shared with those Reiki practitioners who feel called to receive it.  We extend our gratitude to the Ascended Realms for sharing this Divine symbol with us.

THE TEMPLAR ATTUNEMENT:

Each individual is anointed with the following oils in order as given on their 6th Chakra/Third Eye:

Spruce - Grounds the body, creating the balance and the opening necessary to receive and to give.  Also helps to release emotional blocks.

Juniper - Evokes feelings of health, love and peace and assists in elevating one?s spiritual awareness.

Frankincense  - Helps enhance one's communion with the Creator and promotes a positive attitude.

Myrrh  - Promotes spiritual awareness and is a True Gift as given to the Christ child.  When we open our hearts and minds to receive the gifts, they will be given unto us.

While "ascension into Christ consciousness" usually takes a bit more effort than one attunement, the ritual itself is a truly glorious experience for any open individual.  Whether you are left feeling very quiet and serene or utterly !transplendent!, this is truly one of the most positive experiences you'll encounter on your reiki path.  I know that it was for me!!  Much more work is to come, but it is, nevertheless, a POWERFUL affirmation of your intent!

AFTER HAVING RECEIVED SEVERAL DIFFERENT REIKI ATTUNEMENTS, I can now say with certainty that the Templar is by far my favorite!  It has a calming quality and invokes such a peaceful and beautiful energy... this is a valuable stepping stone for any reiki practitioner!  

The information on this page is the extent of the knowledge that I have to share on this wonderful attunement.  There is little to know - but much to explore even so!
THE TEMPLAR SYMBOL
USUI REIKI:  I do not have much to say regarding this reiki discipline.  While it is the most common form form of reiki "taught", I think it is important to remember that "Usui Reiki" is only labelled as such due to the man that re-introduced reiki to the western world.  This is certainly something for which Mikao Usui deserves recognition and respect, but unfortunately we have nearly deified him and written his philosophies in stone at the expense of our own.  We have forgotten that he was just a man, and that we are as worthy of expression through our healing selves as he was.

So I offer the same advice that I give to potential students when they question the instruction given by their own teacher: INTUITION is as important a learning tool as a healing tool.  Take what you need and allow yourself the freedom to let go that which does not work for you.  Take the initiative to find out how you are going to work best because your own personal technique is certainly not going to come from blindly following orders without giving a thought to your own instinct.

UNIVERSAL LIFE ENERGY is a pretty all-encompassing thing.  This is not something that Usui discovered. That would be impossible - it is the stuff of the universe itself.   At best he merely re-discovered this wonderful reminder of our true healing potential.  So whether you are practicing Usui, Seichim, KarunaKi or any other discipline, remember that REIKI is like ice cream - it all has the same base, it just comes in several different flavours!
THE 5 REIKI SYMBOLS
My greatest motivation for sharing these symbols is the UNNECESSARY deification they have received by so many other "traditional" practitioners.  To me, the attitude (and paranoia!) with which the reiki symbols are passed on and "taught" is akin to looking upon a statue of Christ or Buddha and claiming that all the power of that individual is wrapped up in that statue.  Well, obviously that is hogwash.  So is placing more importance in the symbols than necessary.
They can be very effective tools for anyone that is confident in their visualization practice.  But for anyone else that is going to worry about their memory or "using a symbol" incorrectly, that influx of negative energy through doubt will only compromise the positive energy work they are intending to do.  
All the power of reiki is NOT wrapped up in these symbols.  Choosing to use them as little or as much as you wish - and in whatever means YOU are comfortable with - isn't what empowers your reiki practice, your clear and sincere INTENT is what drives your healing energy.
