Re: The Colours of the Sun
Hi Lee
You're very welcome, it's not entirely selfless anyway as I need to practise using Reiki as part of my ongoing training - what's the point of having it if I don't share it :)
Besides, each time a person gives Reiki, they are also receiving healing at the same time.
I began to send it shortly after 1pm, so not sure if you were aware of anything around that time. I always pay close attention to any impressions or images I get, and to any physical sensations - these may or may not mean anything to you, but this is what came to me at the time:
Immediately I started, I could see lots of swirling colours, quite deep jewel-like ones, starting off as a very deep red and violet. There was lots of a sort of mustard-ish, almost amber colour then, and the violet became more predominant. For a split second I saw what looked a little like lightning, or the blue electricity in one of those plasma ball thingies. Shortly afterwards I experienced a stabbing pain low on the left side of my adbomen, again just for a split second.
I *asked* to be given any images or impressions that would be useful or relevant, and again these may or may not mean anything at all to you (could just be random debris from my own subconscious!) - I saw an image of a wave breaking, and not so much saw as sensed, a boat, and then later a kite.
At about that time I was aware of a slight numbness around the nose/mouth area of my face.
As I was about to finish, the sensation that I usually get on the palms of my hands when I give Reiki, became somewhat stronger and much more noticeable, so I waited and continued. I was immediately aware of discomfort and almost pressure around my throat, almost like a lump or a blockage, which remained after moving my head up and down and swallowing several times, and with this the words 'talk' and 'expression' came to me, and the impression of biting back or 'swallowing' words.
(I do know that blockages at the throat chakra can manifest as sore throats and discomfort in that area, and can be in part caused by failure to express oneself or literally to 'speak your truth').
Sorry for going into every little detail, but I've found through experience that a lot of times I'll report some seemingly random impression I've had, only to find that it's relevant. I'm still trying to get to grips with paying attention to these things and not dismissing them...
