Absolutely. Anyone is able to start working with symbols in their meditation or healing and the techniques are really very simple and easy to learn. These techniques are very flexible and empowering and can really help with any meditation practice to become more peaceful, more fun and more effective.
And interestingly enough, working with symbols is normally a very good practice for those who feel that they have a busy or overactive mind. In this case, the symbols will help to bring us more inner peace and calming energies into our practice. Symbols are also great for anyone regardless of previous meditation, healing or spiritual understanding.
Before we are able to start practising with any symbols in our healing, it is very important that we receive what is referred to as an attunement for that particular practice. Without the attunement, the symbols are basically just drawings on a piece of paper and really won't help us very much in our meditation or healing. The attunement effectively gives us access to these healing frequencies so that when we call on the symbol for healing assistance, the love and healing light is then able to shine.
The attunement must be taken from someone who is of a vibratory understanding of the frequencies being worked with noting that you will feel a better connection to the energies if your attunement is received from an experienced Master. Attunements can also be a great way for us to move to higher and higher vibrations of energy, thus it is a very important part of any healing practice. The attunement also helps to remove negative karma from within both the attunement giver and receiver and is normally a very nice, relaxing and sacred experience. You can find more information about the attunement in our FAQ section.
