Raido
Talismans
Astral Dreaming
Astral travel is a
fascinating phenomenon but some spiritual practitioners, even with training and
preparation, struggle to achieve it whilst awake. As a rune with properties of
movement, Raido can assist in travelling through the astral plane. This is more
easily achieved in the dream state and so this talisman is created to make the
transition into astral travel more harmonious.
You will need:
For the charm:
v
Pencil
v
1x
transport charm (broom/car)
v
1x
keyring split ring
v
1x

drops Myrrh
v
1x
1” square piece of paper

What to do:
1.
One
week before you intend to make the talisman, prepare the Raido Oil and charge
it with its purpose:
a)
Pour the base oil into the bottle
b)
Add 3 drops of Myrrh oil, recap the lid and shake vigorously.
c)
Add the ½ tsp Mugwort, recap the lid
and shake vigorously.
d)
Charge 1:
Myrrh & mugwort, bring your charge
To this oil’s power montage
Element of air infused
So its power can be used
e)
Draw a Raido symbol on the paper, roll it up so the symbol is
on the outside and add to the bottle.
f)
Charge 2:
Rune of travel, rune of motion
Raido implement a notion
To this oil as it brews
Power of flight now infuse
g)
Recap the bottle and keep it somewhere cool for at least one
week before using.
2. Cut the ribbons to size and
soak them in the Raido Oil.
3. Make
a double-knot in one end of the ribbon around a pencil so there’s a small loop. Thread this loop through the split ring.
4. Plait the ribbons… as you
do infuse them with your intent by visualising yourself flying through the
astral plane in your chosen mode of transport.
5.
Thread
the transport charm onto the un-knotted end of the plait and tie it into a loop
to match the one at the top. As you do, charge the charm:
A vessel for my astral ride
To aid my flight, be my guide
Let my body rest, restore
But take my mind, make it soar
6.
Neaten
up the loose ends of the knot with scissors.
7. Charge the talisman:
Thoughts and feelings locked away
Those not sensed by light of day
Grant me access in my sleep
So into consciousness they seep
Hang over your bed, or keep
under your pillow to aid is astral travel through dreaming.
Reiki-Raido Healing Stack
Inspired by the fairy stacks of Darren Williams
PHOTOGRAPHS TO BE ADDED LATER –
NEED TO COLLECT MORE STONES
This talisman is a meditation aid and is to
be used to connect to the Universe and send healing to a specific target; it will
invoke not only the energy of Raido but also Reiki energy: the symbols of ‘Cho-Ku-Rei’, ‘Sei-He-Ki’ and ‘Hon-Sha-Ze-Sho-Nen’
which are respectively the Reiki representations of power, emotion
and connection. Magick is the constant changing and blending of Universal
energies charged and executed for a specific task. When these particular
energies are blended they pack quite a punch and I am therefore combining them
for the purpose of healing.
You will need:
- 5x small, smooth, flat stone
- Several coloured markers
- A glue gun
- Decorating items (paint, glitter, etc)
What to do:
1. Wash
the stones and practice stacking them in a sequence which is sturdy as well as
feeling comfortable and being aesthetically pleasing to you.
2. Once you’re comfortable
decorate the stones how you want them to appear… paint, glitter, etc. Leave space in the centre of each stone to
draw your symbols and remember, once they are glued into the stack, you will
only see the edges.
3.
Once
your decorations have dried, draw your symbols… one on each stone –
- 1x Raido;
- 2x Cho-Ku-Rei;
- 1x Se-He-Ki;
- 1x Hon-Sha-Ze-Sho-Nen
Make sure your symbols are
drawn on the stones in the correct order so the energy of the stack will flow
at its strongest.
i) Cho-Ku-Rei (base)
ii) Se-He-KI
iii) Hon-Sha_Ze-Sho-Nen
iv) Cho-Ku-Rei
v) Raido (top)
As you draw the symbols,
visualise their energy infusing the stone… think of what it means, what colour
it is, how it moves, what it does. Let those imaginings run through your hand
into your symbol as it is drawn.
4. Heat the glue gun and begin to assemble your stack. Have all
the symbols facing upward… once assembled the only symbol you will see is Raido
on the top.
This item doesn’t particularly need to be charged –
the symbols, if drawn correctly, are so powerful and imbued with such potent
energy that even I find a charge practically redundant – however, I am a
rhymaholic and incorporate a charge into how I use the stack and so am sharing
what I personally use with this stack…
How to use the Stack
Place the stack in the palm of your dominant hand
and your receptive palm face down over the stack. Close your eyes and take
several deep breaths. Journey to that place between the conscious and sub-conscious
that place between reality and imagination where anything is possible and
recite:
Power of
strength, power of light
Flow from my
aura brilliant and bright
Power to heal,
power to calm
Be an elixir, a
magickal balm
Journey the
spiral of cho-ku-rei
Draw from the
Universe what you may
Continue on to
Sei-He-Ki
Gain its pure
and cleansing energy
Hon-Sha-Ze-Sho-Nen
now find
To shed the
shackles of space and time
And onward
spiral once again
Around the
cho-ku-rei domain
With the gifts
of Reiki blessed
Through Raido
journey on your quest
Visualise the person/animal to which you are
sending healing, see their face; see their energy and where it needs your help.
As well as the redundant charge, I also like to add
a physical element to the healing too – for this I have a picture/photograph of
the one who needs healing. When I recite the following words, I place my
dominant hand, palm down against the photograph as a physical act of giving the
healing. Send this light toward them, see it reach the darkened areas of their
aura, their spirit and watch it cleanse, purify and heal with the white/blue
light of the Universe, Reiki, Raido and you. Recite the following three times
as the energy works:
Power of
strength, power of light
Make this aura
brilliant and bright
Power to heal,
power to calm
Be the elixir,
the magickal balm
Raido Meditations
The inspiration for this meditation is from the episode of Charmed when Phoebe was haunted by her past life and had to go back in time to undo a curse. This however, is for if you want to understand more about yourself.
Confused? Lost? This may be the meditation to help you find your way again. Use Raido as a compass or a sat-nav to give your magick a new direction.
