E

 

Empowerment - same as Reiju, used by the Reiki Master to put higher frequency Reiki energy into the student to raise their vibrational frequency. Empowerments are different to attunements because they raise the frequency of the student a little at a time where as attunements offer a direct connection to the energy source.

 

Usui-Sensei used empowerments for students he would see very frequently, but for those whom he would not see on a regular basis he would use attunements.
