Answering questions on Distance Reiki


What is Distance Reiki?

Once a Reiki student has studied and received his / her certificate for Second Degree Reiki, he / she has been given the tools required to perform Distance Reiki.

Energy therapy, such as Reiki, transcends time and space. This makes it possible for a practitioner of Distance Reiki to perform a therapy session without the client being in the same room as him / her. The client does not even have to be in the same country or on the same continent.

Although I am based in South Africa, I have performed a Reiki therapy session on a client living in France.

For the client it is a non-intrusive way of receiving Reiki therapy without having to physically go to the practitioner for an actual hands-on session. The practitioner is able to connect to the energy of the client using basic information of the client (usually full name and date of birth), and using Reiki symbols and methods he / she has been taught, the practitioner is able to carry on the session from a distance.

What is the process for Distance Reiki?

A new client will need to complete a Client Form and email it, along with proof of payment for the session to the practitioner. A time and date will then be set for the session.

The client will need to be able to set an hour aside where he / she can lie down and rest in a calm or meditative state (it is okay if you are so calm that you fall asleep, this will not affect your therapy). He / she cannot have any disturbances or be near to any switched on / plugged in electronics for the duration of the hour (cellphone included) the electro-magnetic fields will negatively impact the therapy session.

During that time the practitioner will connect to the client’s personal energy. He / she will clear and strengthen the chakras and energy fields (known as the aura). He / she will then send healing energy to the chakras and any other part of the body that may require attention. Any negative, emotional chords will be cut and removed from the client’s energy centres.

Quite often a client will actually feel physical sensations as the practitioner performs a Distance Reiki therapy session.

Once the hour long session is complete, the client is advised to drink a glass of water, this performs two purposes. Firstly, drinking the water helps to ground the client’s personal energy. Secondly, after a Reiki therapy session the body will begin to detox itself and the water helps this process along. For the next three days the client should make sure to drink at least two litres of water per day and cut back on nicotine, caffeine and alcohol intake.

Because of the energy exchange after a session, the client sometimes develops a minor headache. The best solution for this is to rub Lavender or Rose oil on the temples and or place an Amethyst or Rose quartz over the third eye chakra.

During the Distance Reiki therapy session the client is welcome to place a clear quartz or amethyst over the third eye to strengthen his / her connection to the practitioner.

After the session is completed an email will be sent to the client from the Reiki practitioner describing what happened during the session. The practitioner will mention if there were any areas of concern and any exercises or actions the client can take to work on these areas.

If there are to be any follow up sessions, the client should wait at least a week before making an appointment to allow the body to detox and to ensure the therapy has taken full effect.

Should you have any further queries, please feel free to email me directly.

Journaling with Runes




One of the biggest challenges when starting to write in your spiritual journal may be that you feel you have nothing to write.

Using a form of divination in your daily life can allow you to grow. It helps you to understand where you are currently in your life and how you can move forward. It also gives you the opportunity to ask your Spiritual Guardians, Guides and Angels for advice and guidance and you have the tools necessary to receive an answer.

Using these divination tools to start the journaling process can take you even one step further. In your Spiritual Journal you can write down what happened in your reading, in the case of Runes, which ones you drew and what they represented, and you can receive messages from your Guides.

Then you go one step further, and you continue to write about the reading and any personal interpretations that come to mind. Simply just write, let it flow.

From this point you will be able to look to your Inner Strength and your Intuition for further guidance in daily matters. Perhaps there is someone or something that has been bothering you. It is also usually in moments like these when light is shed on all manner of matters, sometimes even things you didn’t realize were bothering you.

You are then able to work through problems and find solutions, to live a greater spiritual life, and to be able to find balance and harmony within yourself and in your life.

Before you realise it, you will be writing in your Spiritual Journal on a daily basis. One of the joys of tapping into your own “Inner Wisdom” is quite often you will crave more of it. This is because once you have tapped into that part of yourself, you begin to realise your own personal potential for growth and just how limitless it really is.

If there is a day when you just really don’t feel like drawing runes and writing in your journal, then that is the time when you absolutely must do just that. A lot of times you will find that there is an underlying reason for not wanting to draw runes or write in your journal. A lot of the time that reason is Fear. There may be something you are afraid to face or find out the answer to. Don’t allow this fear to take a hold in your life, or whatever it is they may be preventing you from your rune journaling. Do it anyway, moving forward is the only way you will be able to remove any obstacles and continue to grow as a spiritual being. Even if all you do is draw one single rune and write it and its meaning down that day, you are still taking the step to continue moving forward.

Drawing Runes

There are two basic layouts I like to use when drawing runes for rune journaling, which I am going to share with you.

Before you begin, spend a moment taking a few deep, slow breaths in and out. Quietly listen to your own breath and allow yourself to feel calm and centred. You don’t want to draw any runes while feeling rushed and chaotic.

While still in their bag, shake and mix your runes around. Think about the reason for your reading, and ask any questions you have for your guides.

Below I am going to give you the meanings of the different runes, before you select a rune or let them “fall” spend a short moments thinking about the meaning behind the runes position and how it is relevant to your reading. During this time continue to mix up the runes.

Layout 1: In-depth reading

In front of you, clear the area where you will be reading your runes. Make sure the surface is as flat and even as possible. Use something to create a circle (I like to use a length of chord). This circle should be no wider than 20cm to 30cm in diameter.

Remember: The wider the diameter the more likely you will be working with more runes and will have a longer reading.

Reach into your bag of runes and draw just one single rune. This will be your Significator rune. Basically it will be the rune that represents You, where you and your personal energy are right now in your life. Place this rune in the centre of the circle you created.

Then continue to shake around your runes for a moment, in their bag, while asking what it is you want to know from them. When you are ready, open your bag and let the runes “fall where they may” in the circle you have created.

Remove any runes that have fallen outside of the circle and any that have fallen upside down or on their sides, the ones that are left will be the ones that will form your reading.

The runes that fall closest to the Significator rune are the ones that represent your Past or Source. They represent what has happened to you that has the most affect over you with regards to the purpose of your reading and where you are currently.

The runes that have fallen in-between the Past runes and the edge of the circle represent your Present or Action. They show you where you are at the moment, what you need to work through and any actions you need to take in order to move forward.

Any runes very close to or touching the marker of your circle represents your Future or Outcome. These runes tell you what is more than likely to happen if you continue on your current path, and perhaps what you should look at if you decide you wish to change this outcome.




Layout 2: Short reading

This is a much simpler version for you to work with, especially if perhaps you do not have a lot of time available.

This time around, you won’t need the circle as you will be drawing each rune individually from your bag.

As with the previous layout, first draw your Significator rune and place it in front of you. Then shuffle your runes around and draw a single rune out for your Past / Source, draw a rune for your Present / Action and lastly draw a rune for your Future / Outcome.

Once you have finished your reading, if any of the three areas don’t quite make sense, you can always mix your bag of runes around and ask for a rune to bring clarification on the matter. Draw it from your bag and place it below the rune you are looking for clarification on.



Using your runes for journaling can help you in so many ways on a personal and spiritual level. It will also help you to get to know your runes very well. They will become charged with your energy and one day you might find that they almost feel like they are a part of you. You might even find that you no longer need to use a book, or source, of interpretation to know what they mean, because you already know, both in your heart and mind, what they mean.

I do have one small rule when it comes to this type of journaling. That is to remember to have fun! Don’t take it too seriously and don’t let it feel like it’s a chore, nobody likes chores! It is a fun tool to use to become the best person that you can be.

Distance Reiki Healing



Email me on thewiccaseries@gmail.com for more information


A Review from one of my clients with regards to Distance Reiki:


I love pampering myself with a reiki session, or using it to help me when I'm in the process of healing after illness or injury, but there are two things that I find a bit difficult about going to hands-on sessions (excuse the pun!)

1) Time! Not only for the session itself, but also for the drive there and home. This is all the more true since I most often feel I could benefit from a little helping energy hand when I'm under a lot of stress and I don't have a lot of time

2) Many people still regard energy healing as strange, and it's always extra pressure having to imply that my appointment is for medical purposes without specifying when dealing with colleagues, etc - just hassle I don't need.

Distance reiki is the answer to both these problems - and when I tried it, it really worked too!

During my hour session I felt wonderfully relaxed and calm, lying on my own bed with my favourite candle burning. I felt tingling in specific body parts at times that corresponded to when Nathalie was working on those problem areas, and subsequently I was able to release a lot of tension from another area that she pointed out to me.

The experience is definitely gentler than hands-on reiki, but still powerful enough to make a difference. And it's really lovely being able to do it in the comfort of my own home, with no additional time needed.

I think this is the ideal gift for a friend or for yourself - what better than some pampering in the comfort of your own home - for the price of two scented candles!

Remember he also offers sessions to small groups of five people upwards and you can approach him to do one of those sessions/talks at for instance a meditation circle, book club meeting or function. Below is a breakdown of the sessions and what it entails. At the moment all sessions are held at Misty Moon in Centurion unless other arrangements are made. SKYPE sessions are also an option - contact him for arrangements and prices.

Introduction
When I realized that I love working with people so much, I created the Frans-Carel.com brand by amalgamating the knowledge I acquired over time in the business world. I started to explore what it is that people encounter as struggles and obstacles in their lives. I looked at everyday people with everyday problems and created a simple solution for each problem that a person may face. I working really hard to take all walks of life into account in my coaching methodology which incorporates a Holistic Life approach.
I take a full spectrum look at the bigger picture in one person's life and expand on it. I find the person's strengths and apply those traits towards acquiring their self-made goals.
Sub-sets include relationships, parents, students, families, men and executives.

Everyday Coaching
Life is complicated enough, so therefore the formula to Your Life Coaching has to be simple. Build a rectangular faceted pyramid. Fill each facet with the individual's wants, goals, dreams and imagination.
The foundation of the pyramid is the person's inner self. The first step is to build up an upright pyramid, representing the giving & building of self.
We duplicate the initial pyramid in an inverted manner to symbolize the learning or receiving of success and greatness.
Thirdly we enforce the plans and structures with a hexagonal pyramid structure – to support the insides.
We are looking at the various aspects of a person on mental and emotional level and then combine the physical and spiritual to strengthen the newly emerging persona. Without this step, “A fool's plan, remains a leaf in the wind”

1 Introduction Session
We look at the various aspects of your Life, at the present moment, and we determine where you are, right now. Without a departure point we cannot plot a course to your success. We look at each of the basic areas of your Life. We plot where you feel you are at the moment.
We start identifying your Strengths and areas that need a bit of extra effort to get a balanced and holistic lifeline”.

2 Strength Session
In the initial session we determine where you were at the start of our proceedings. Now we identify the tools that you have. We map the use of the tool / strength and we identify the impact of your life. And see how we can incorporate your strength in detail towards your short, medium and long term goals.

3 Thriving Session
We have now identified the base of your pyramid, now we look start with each facet starting with applying your strength in terms of not only surviving your Life, but thriving in it. Each session here after we use the simple “Four Anchor” methodology. First we imagine, identify our wants then set our goals to reach our dreams. This is the simplest method of applying the principals you acquire here and incorporating them into your life.

4 Belief Session
All of us have a belief structure. We have to analyse this structure to incorporate your strength/s and apply our Four Anchor methodology to it. We have to perhaps tweak the beliefs that is in place to make our way-forward towards your goals using the tools we identified.

5 Certainty & Control Session
We want to know what is certain, fixed and what we can count upon. We call this a fundamental human truth. We want to have certainty about our Life. Here we identify the things you can count on in your Life. These may include material, emotional, mental and spiritual aspects that we can always fall back on when things go a bit awry.

6 Uncertainty & Release Session
We have to know what the variables of our Life are. We have to identify what are the things we have no control over. We learn how to integrate our strengths towards an uncertain outcome and letting go with the Breath technique. Not an acronym, but a literal application of balancing your immediate environment.

7 Achievement Session
We want to be recognized. We want to reach a level or point where we can review our progress and be complimented on what we have achieved. Here we learn to identify the milestones and mile markers on our Life Path to instigate a series of congratulatory, festive and honorary processes to rejoice in one thing, You.

8 Connections Session
We are part of something, all of us. We are part of groups, communities and collectives. Here we wander a slight bit outside ourselves and we identify the resources and assets that we can utilize to achieve our goals, dreams and aspirations.

9 Growth Session
You need to Grow. Like a tree we reach for the sun and nothing will stop us from growing the next inch.
We look to the projected Life plan and identify smaller pieces that can make the process of Change and pleasant and joyous one. Identifying our comfort zone and identifying where we will find the magic of life.

10 Worth Session
You and the world need to know what you are worth. You need to recognize and appreciate how far you have come on this road to Success. We teach you, how to appreciate you and see how your strengths have grown. We look at what you can do now, how things have evolved. We celebrate your contribution to the World.

11 Evaluate Session
It is time to take stock. We review the tools you have acquired. We see how your progress is towards your initial goals. We evaluate which of those goals still apply. We assess your progress to see where small tweaks needs to be applied for you to enter your new chapter.

12 Cement Session
We have the tools, resources, assets and plans in place. We know how to manage the variants, it is time.
Now we mix the first batch of cement to make our Life building a sound structure. The first element is non-Judgement. We look how to observations can be your greatest weapon or your greatness downfall. Be open to the new of life.

13 Embrace Session
No one can imagine more elaborate greatness than You. Your life is in your hands. We look at how we can expand the imagination into your life and how we can link it to your success plans.

14 Outcome Session
We all have hopes, we want things to go a certain way, but when Life takes another direction, all our hard work falls apart. We learn how non-Attachment can help us to remain open. Open to the bigger
and better part of Success. We learn to watch and notice the changes before they happen. We learn what we can control and what is beyond our reach.

15 There is More Session
There is ALWAYS more success waiting for you. Life does not want you to struggle and survive. Life wants abundance, prosperity and joy in all areas of your Life. Now it is time to recognize your greater picture in Success.
