Reiki is the universal life force energy available all around us. Reiki is a form of healing and reiki symbols have a purpose to awaken aspects of that energy. We can use symbols as a way to access a part or parts of our own or the universal energy in order to facilitate healing in ourselves or others or in the universe as a whole. Oracle and healing stones act as an aid or guide to help us access this energy.
Rune Stone Sets
Scrying or divination with oracle and runes stones goes back to at least the second century AD, before the Latin alphabet was widely adopted. It is thought rune and oracle symbols were first used for communication, as symbols of courage and battle victory, symbols for protection, prayer and ritual and then later for divination purposes. The symbols were even used just for decorative purposes. The Nordic countries are probably most associated with runes. Symbols have been found carved on large stones particularly in Sweden, though there are obvious links to the Celtic Ogham stones and to Olde English and Welsh as well as having wider reaches across the old Lithuania, Finland and the Rhineland.
