Are you going through a difficult time? Maybe nothing seems to be going right? Can you point out things that are happening in your life that are no longer serving you? We all get tangled up in life from time to time. Through a process called the “burning bowl ceremony,” you can release the burdens that have kept you from going where you want to be.
The burning bowl ceremony may involve the use of reiki to release old habits and make room for new beginnings. Reiki ‘guides’ participate by whispering in your ear inviting you to grow and offering their help in this process. The reiki burning bowl ceremony is a fire ceremony designed to help us clarify our intentions and help us listen to ourselves and our guides, and bring new intentions to help us achieve our goals.
The burning bowl ceremony is used in many traditions. The idea is to write down a negative condition that you would like to see released from your life. Keep this part short and to the point, you don’t want to ramble. The paper is then burned in the container. He then burns a second paper with his new intentions for his life.
Your ceremony can be held indoors or outdoors, with safety in mind at all times. If you don’t have an open fire, place a candle in a fireproof container with sand around it to keep it upright. Light the candle. Prepare as you would if you were giving a healing session. Use symbols, if you have them, and set your intention. Say your invocation to invite your guides to the ceremony. Take time to be still and connect with your heart and write on the paper what you would like to release. He then burns the paper watching it turn to ashes and shoots smoke upwards. Now do the same with your new intentions. Close the ceremony just as you would close a session with a client. Thank your guides and say a prayer, using the symbol of power. Clear your bowl of unwanted energy and remember to take care of it as it is an important healing tool.
The burning bowl ceremony can be performed as many times as necessary. The beginning of each season is a good time to renew this ritual. Know that the Universe clearly hears you and responds. Regularly pay attention to your dreams; create and manifest your life with joy.
