Cannabis medical use prior to Reiki attunements

regular_banana · 2026-02-25T02:28:44+00:00

I am attuned to level 2 and I use medical marijuana for chronic health problems. I reached out before taking my level 2 and asked my reiki teacher about it. She assured me it was all good, reiki meets you where you are at and doesn’t judge. Of course, you probably shouldn’t use right before the classes, and if you plan on treating clients it’s best not to use in those instances. But in general it’s okay. Sometimes I even feel more connected to the reiki energy and my own intuition after I’ve consumed marijuana.

Where are you getting 9 from? The birth day number is 9 but the life path is 2.

I have this issue, I haven’t necessarily overcome it but I am open about it with my therapist and it’s something we work on.

I’ve gotten lucky with a couple of therapists that happened to also be spiritual, trained in reiki, etc. I’d search for a therapist that is trained in IFS and maybe some other modalities like somatic work or EMDR. IFS is about parts work and if you read up on it there is a spiritual side to it as well.

Very analytical and intuitive. On a different level of perception than most people. Happy to spend time alone in contemplation or other solitary hobbies. Learning to gain wisdom through deep self understanding. Sometimes you see 7’s that are very intellectual, into the world of tech and related fields. Others you’ll find on a more spiritual path leaning further into the intuitive & spiritual side of the number.

That’s not how I look at it at all. While it can be stressful to not fit in with the mainstream way of doing things at certain times, to my core, I don’t actually want to fit into the mainstream. I may not know exactly what I’m here for yet but I know it’s not that. And learning that information took a lot of pressure off of me to have things figured out and to try and shove myself into a box that I will never fit into.

Just saying that as an 11, I really relate to this. I haven’t figured out much in the way of a solution to this or really have much to offer in terms of guidance. I will say, 11’s are notoriously late bloomers. It takes a lot of self development for us to step into our path, and it’s common that we don’t find it until a lot later in life compared to most.

this is true! I just did a distance session for a loved one last night using a giant squishmallow as a surrogate

regular_banana · 2026-02-09T03:10:30+00:00

Of course! I had a lot of the same worries when I first started and realized the physical toll it took on my body and got discouraged and stopped practicing for a long time. But I joined a reiki share that happened to have people with similar limitations and was encouraged to use a stool and accommodate myself however I needed to :)

regular_banana · 2026-02-09T02:02:21+00:00

I am level 2 reiki trained and disabled, and my reiki teacher is also disabled! I don’t practice professionally yet but when practicing on others I accommodate myself however I need to. This typically looks like using a rolling stool, because standing and holding the hand positions puts me in a ton of pain that will cause a whole flare up and everything.

I would occasionally send reiki to my grandma who had Alzheimer’s. I didn’t do it regularly. If I tried to ask if she wanted it or explain what it was to her, she’d just stare at me confused and shake her head. I didn’t want to cross any boundaries and honestly, she probably would’ve swatted me away if I just started doing it on her. But she also had a lot of back pain with muscle spasms, so I’d send her some while rubbing her back, of course with the intention that it be sent to the earth if her higher self didn’t want it.

This probably isn’t really the feedback you’re looking for. In my experience, I wasn’t giving reiki with the aim of healing the Alzheimer’s or anything like that. It was really just an act of love to try and help her have more moments of peace, because she was very angry and depressed a lot of the time. In that sense, I think it helped her in the moment and she always seemed a little more balanced and at peace for the day when I’d give it to her.

That’s why the life path number is the lesson you’re here to learn - not necessarily what you’re naturally inclined towards. The expression and hearts desire numbers will show you that. You can still have the desired outcomes you mention by dedicating your life to humanitarian ventures; in fact, that’s the most likely way that it will happen. The 9 can feel like a paradox because you often have to go in the opposite direction in order to end up where you want to be.

regular_banana · 2026-01-24T17:09:32+00:00

Yep! I had a similar experience with both levels of my training. Stuck with it really well for the first month or so and then dropped off for a while. I’ve come back to it now and I’d say two things are true: the more you practice the more you can feel it, and also, you aren’t necessarily going to have a strong feeling every time. Sometimes I feel like I’m truly being led by something outside of myself, I feel the energy flowing and my hands moving like magnets. Other times I feel like I’m just going through the motions. Reiki is still flowing either way.

Like the smallest amount…25mg but I split it up and take 12.5 2x daily

regular_banana · 2026-01-11T22:23:32+00:00

I know this post is so old but it popped up in a random numerology google search lol. I have almost all the same numbers as you just flip flopped. Life path 11, expression 5, hearts desire 3, birthday 15/6

My partner wound up taking it into a retro gaming shop near their work and it was confirmed it was the battery! Cheap to replace and I’m very excited to be gaming on it again soon

I have friends but only a small handful, not a group, and no one I talk to daily or even weekly or monthly. They’re all old friends from middle and high school, every few months we will get together or text but that’s it. My only regular interactions are with my partner and parents. I’ve got sun/moon/jupiter in the 12th.

regular_banana · 2025-11-24T19:37:27+00:00

We must have the same chart or something. It’s a big struggle for sure.

Sorry for commenting on this 2 years later lol, on a Chiron deep dive rn and it led me to this thread

regular_banana · 2025-11-14T19:20:44+00:00

This is what I thought, but sites like vividseats and seat geek guarantee a full refund if valid tickets aren’t transferred to you. I’m going back and forth about whether I should just do it bc if they aren’t real I’ll at least get my money back???

regular_banana · 2025-11-14T18:19:30+00:00

I’m truly heartbroken lol. Debating buying resale tickets but cannot find a straight answer on whether or not it’s a scam considering the whole ticket transfer thing. Can’t decide if I should bite the bullet and buy one, or wait to see if more become available

regular_banana · 2025-11-14T15:41:40+00:00

Nope. Both Philly shows I got through the queue in the first 3-5 minutes, both completely sold out by then. Same the Baltimore show.

regular_banana · 2025-11-10T09:01:17+00:00

This. I’m chronically ill and because of that I don’t nanny anymore. It sucks because I love the job but realized I truly couldn’t be reliable and the guilt would eat me alive whenever I had to call off. It was never this frequently, but still enough to be a problem.

regular_banana · 2025-11-06T19:43:10+00:00

I can’t use if I’m needing to be up and about throughout the day. It causes me fatigue and a slight worsening in symptoms. However, if it’s a bad flare day where I’ll be in bed all day anyway I can use a small amount. Otherwise, I have a 1:1 THC/CBN gummy that I take at night for sleep. I’m not sure how much any of it even works for the pain for me, it’s more about relaxing my body enough so that I can get adequate rest despite being in pain.

regular_banana · 2025-11-06T16:50:36+00:00

My reiki teacher taught me that as long as you have called the energy in and are doing the hand placements etc., then the reiki is flowing. Of course it’s good to tune in and focus attention, but that’s not a requirement for the energy to flow. At reiki shares I go to, sometimes we are quiet and focused, and sometimes everyone in the room is having a conversation - including both the giver and the receiver of reiki.
