Hon Sha Ze Sho Nen Massage
Hon Sha Ze Sho Nen Massage(hon-shaw-ze-show-nen) is known as the “Distance” symbol in Reiki. It’s most commonly used in distant healing sessions, but it is certainly not limited to this practice. Just as with the other symbols used in Usui Reiki, many people have their own interpretation of what it means.
I believe that this symbol represents Oneness, and when used in a healing session, has the power to unite the healer and the recipient at a subconscious level that can allow a deep healing to take place.
Hon Sha Ze Nen Massage symbolizes the Sun, and although many of us may view the sun just as an object in the sky – we have to realize that the ancients worshipped it for a reason. The sun is a living and conscious being, and it flows it’s life essence through everything, giving all living creatures life. Without the sun, we would not survive.
This symbol, when used with Reiki transcends space and time. It is not restricted by our conscious belief about time. Use the Hon-sha-ze-sho-nen to send Reiki to a person on the other side of the world, or to another place in time! Past, present or future events can be healed and effected positively by the symbol. Heal an event in the past that you wish could have been different, and see how it effects your present moment!
