Some 30 odd years ago, our Kathleen Ann Milner had asked God to re-connect her to her higher self, and to her intuitive healing abilities that she possessed as a young girl. Although she had taken Traditional Western Reiki, she knew that bits were missing. She had a consciousness raising enlightenment with Buddha, wherein it is said, she was given information similar to Dr Usui’s during his enlightenment. This included the missing Reiki and Seichem symbols and a different method of attunement.
Tera-Mai Reiki & Seichem was born!
Seichem, pronounced “say keem”, is reputedly one of the healing arts practised in ancient Egypt. There are others known as Sekhem, Seichim and SKHM. As Tera-Mai healing is energy channelling, it has no association with religion, faith or belief system and can be received and practised by anyone who requests to be healed or energised. Healing can be given as a “hands on” treatment to people, animals, all living things and even electrical appliances! It can also be sent across time and space to those not able to attend a session personally. This is known as distant or absent healing
The Five Elemental Healing Rays
Tera-Mai – Earth Mother
Reiki (earth) is experienced as heat or cold, just as the Earth can be hot or cold. It can influence and benefit physical, mental and emotional health. Other characteristics of Earth energy are those of grounding and foundation. Reiki forms the base through which the other elemental rays may operate.
Sophi-el (water) is felt as a gentle, pulsing coolness. It helps to heal deep emotional issues, opens the heart to love and enhances intuitive issues. Sophi-el may help with deep rage and bottled up anger, addictions etc., and in combination with the other rays, it can bring in energies of joy and love.
Additionally, Sophi-el enhances the healer’s psychic awareness and intuitive abilities, thereby helping them to “know” where to place their hands, or what advice or message to give a client if that’s appropriate to improve the effectiveness of the treatment.
Angeliclight (air and spirit) feels like cool, gentle breeze and can facilitate mental and spiritual healing. It is a two-fold ray, working with both the element air, and the Angelic realm. It helps to re-establish one’s link with the energies of the Angelic realm, and the Higher Self of both the Healer and the Healee.
After being initiated into Angeliclight, celestial Angels are able to project themselves over the healer, they may gently oversee and facilitate the healing. Refer to the books “Hands of Light and Light Emerging” by Barbara Ann Brennan, there are some wonderful paintings of our helpers. These energies are also known as our Reiki Guides and students are encouraged to discover who they are, and to invite them to help move or guide their hands. Quite often a client will say that they could feel more than one pair of hands on them.
Sakara (fire) is experienced as a tingling, rather like an electric current. It also works in the aura, helping to transmute heavy, negative blockages. Sakara repairs the physical body and is the vessel which holds the Angeliclight for the healer. Sakara brings a Rainbow of protective light which surrounds the aura.
These spiritually guided rays work individually or altogether, depending on the needs of the recipient.
Attunements
In order to channel these elemental rays of love and light, you must be attuned to them by a Tera-Mai Master. Being initiated into these rays accelerates your own personal and spiritual growth and development.
Tera-Mai is a system of standardised attunements ensuring the quality and pureness of the energy.
Tera-Mai is an international organisation and we have here in the UK, the Tera-Mai Healers Association, which you can join if you wish once you start your training. The Association, run events during the year and these often include visits and workshops by the founder of Tera-Mai, Kathleen Milner. We also have a newsletter in which you are kept in touch with other Reiki’s and you can ask questions, write articles and exchange stories.
Sadly, most of the Traditional Western Reiki forms are without backup, often with skimpy one day tuition, and so to add even more reason to choose Tera-Mai, you also can purchase videos, DVDs, cassettes, books and leaflets.
Furthermore, Teaching Masters of the Association agree only to give the attunements in the strict form that Kathleen Milner has passed on to us.This means that all Tera-Mai Master Teacher’s attunements will be compatible with each other, unlike Traditional Western Reiki and fringe Reiki, where teachers are free to tweak and interfere with the universal attunements, hence you will see all sorts of incompatible Reiki forms popping up all over the place.
Now for the REALLY good bit! You don’t just get Reiki, you also are attuned to Seichem. Reiki allows you to channel the healing energies of the Element Earth. Seichem adds Water, Wind, Fire and Ether, the Five Elements. So you will be channelling more than just the Earth element. It goes without saying that this wider spectrum of vibrations may well be more beneficial than Reiki alone.
Also included in my tuition is the attunement to the Silver Violet Flame at 1st Degree, to help with the removal and transmutation of negative energies, and at 2nd Degree, you are given the Egyptian YOD attunement, connecting the Rainbow Bridge to your Higher Self, helping you to develop your intuition.
Sooner or later, it will be necessary to have recognised qualifications in order to practise professionally, as EEC legislation is just around the corner. The Tera-Mai Healers Association has a working party set up to cover this aspect so that when the time comes, our Qualifications, Standards and Code of Conduct will be accepted. To comply with new standards, I also include basic Anatomy and Physiology in 1st Degree training.
Tera-Mai Training
In order to comfortably assimilate the energies of higher vibrations, the initiations are taken in three stages, known as degrees. Comprehensive training, handouts and manuals are included in the courses.
1st Degree You will be personally attuned to the healing rays of Reiki, Sakara, Sophi-el and Angeliclight. Reiki and Seichem are explained, and during meditations you may meet your Reiki guides and develop your Self. You are taught how to give treatments to yourself, friends, family and all living things.
2nd Degree This attunement enables you to channel even more energy.You are introduced to, and given the sacred symbols of Reiki & Seichem, and taught how to send and programme healing through time and space. On completion of case studies and certification, you may then work professionally for fees etc.
3rd Degree This is known as the Mastership level and is a very powerful initiation. Many students experience greater spiritual and psychic awareness as a result of becoming a Master Healer.
Tera-Mai is a natural, holistic and safe system of healing, even for babies, pregnant woman, the elderly and after surgery. Tera-Mai Reiki & Seichem can help us to move through the blockages that prevent our lives from flowing as they should. The energies enhance and empower our own natural ability to heal ourselves.
