Discovery of Hon Sha Ze Sho Nen, the Temporal Symbol of Reiki

Hon Sha Ze Sho Nen is the third symbol learned in most Reiki courses, and is arguably one of the most powerful you will find.

Its name simply translates to “neither past nor present nor future”. This tells us a lot about the powers of this lucky symbol, intrinsically linked to time.

Today, we are going to discover together a pattern capable of making us break the barrier of time in a way that no one else has been able to achieve.

According to certain theories, our consciousness and our mind are at the source of the perception of time, which is therefore only an internal construction of each living being. It is precisely on this idea that the symbol of Hon Sha Ze Sho Nen is based.

Our minds are sometimes unbalanced. We all experience situations where a certain instability causes us emotional suffering and mental distress. By working properly on our internal energies, we can overcome these barriers and rebalance ourselves. It would be exactly the same with our perception of time.

More precisely, Hon Sha Ze Sho Nen would have the power to help us. This symbol of reiki will in any case allow you to break with a past that is too painful and to detach us from certain anxieties linked to the future.

In short, this oh-so-intriguing symbol is found on several products that we offer on our site, such as these natural stones marked with Reiki emblems which have great energetic powers.

Hon Sha Ze Sho Nen and the Akashic Records

Some wise men have testified to how, when our relationship with time reaches a point of paroxysmal harmony, it can be controlled or, at least, how certain journeys are made possible.

This is about access to the famous Akashic archives, a sphere of consciousness supposed to contain an archive of everything that has been, everything that is and everything that will be. Using these Akashic records (or annals), we can reprogram the direction of our major issues by sending Reiki energy into the past, when a specific adversity began to manifest.

In other words, the energy of Hon Sha Ze Sho Nen would allow us to go back in time. This would then help us to have a clearer vision of a trauma in the past, and to prevent it from recurring in the future.

Access to the Akashic records is a subject that has fascinated many mystics. If this kind of consideration, you will undoubtedly find interesting tools (interesting because they facilitate certain spiritual practices) in this part of our site dedicated to meditation.

Regardless, considering that the present and the future are interacting spaces of time, we can also send Reiki energy into the future, programming its action on our understanding of a previously planned and expected event..

How does Hon Sha Ze Sho Nen work?

According to some, the process that we have just described to you corresponds to the release of old emotions stored in our subconscious, so that, thanks to Hon Sha Ze Sho Nen, we create a change in our mental pattern, eliminating the damage caused by the past events. All this would be possible.

It can be used in the moments before an important occasion in our life, such as a job interview, a court hearing, a work meeting, a specific exam or a long-awaited trip for example, in order to be sure to detach ourselves from possible obstacles left by our past.

This symbol of Reiki can also be used to treat certain less tangible things, such as relationships between two people which, thanks to Hon Sha Ze Sho Nen, will be the place of more understanding, tolerance, relaxation and harmony (again once, by an effect resulting from detachment from the past and its suffering).

Using Hon Sha Ze Sho Nen

While the Cho Ku Rei symbol (another Reiki symbol we have discussed on our site) is energetically independent, the effectiveness of Hon Sha Ze Sho Nen will depend on an “activator”. It turns out that Cho Ku Rei was partly created with this in mind.

Concretely, to discover all the powers of Hon Sha Ze Sho Nen, it is recommended to use it in conjunction with Cho Ku Rei.

If in doubt about the symbol to use for care or work on energies, do not hesitate to seek the advice of an expert. This will help you avoid many minor problems, as well as other, much more serious ones.

When we clearly perceive that the triggering factor of an imbalance that we are experiencing is centered on a past event and that we want to resolve it in order to improve our future, Hon Sha Ze Sho Nen is in any case perfectly designated.

In any case, it is one of the lucky symbols with the highest energy that you can find on our site, and in the world in general. Successfully activating it, however, will be a challenge that only a seasoned Reiki practitioner will be able to take on!

The path taken by the symbols of Reiki

There is one thing to understand about our subject: Reiki was an oral tradition.

During their learning, students (as long as the teacher is at least serious) cannot take anything written home, not even the symbols they trace during lessons.

So, when some people arrive home, they no longer remember exactly the curves of the symbol they were taught. Repeat this phenomenon dozens and dozens of times across several centuries and you end up with tons of different versions of the same symbols. Hon Sha Ze Sho Nen is no exception to the rule.

Another aspect that contributed to there being so many interpretations is the fact that some teachers assumed that the symbols were sacred, and therefore could not show and teach them to those who did not have reaches a certain level of energetic and spiritual mastery.

Therefore, you will always need to check your sources if one day you find yourself having to use the symbols of Reiki.
