what is initiation?

Let's say you  have found yourself opening up spiritually, and having experiences of feeling energy, seeing energy or spirits and guides, or receiving sudden "knowing", hearing a still voice inside that gives you guidance, and or feeling other people's emotions. Perhaps, you feel a deep calling to serve others and make a positive impact in the world? At the same time all of these new experiences, as beautiful as they are, may also feel overwhelming or even scary  and confusing at times.  It might also feel  difficult for you to trust your gifts and intuition because of a very left brain, logical and linear upbringing and habitual ways of thinking. To help you ground and make sense of it all, and help facilitate further expansion, it is advisable at this point that you start working with an experienced teacher or mentor who can hold space for you on your journey and channel the initiations necessary for your evolutionary path.

One may undergo a spontaneous self-initiation (this is a direct activation or download from Source). More often then not, this is what happens at the very beginning of your journey of awakening, whether  you are consciously aware of it or not. Another way is to go through the process of receiving attunements and activations channelled for you through Source by a teacher, guide or mentor, which in turn helps expand your own connection, folds time, brings deep healing, and amplifies and increases your ability to receive your own downloads. Full circle! Regardless of whether one is brand new on this path or has been on the journey for a while, every time one goes through an initiation (attunement / activation) of some sort, there occurs an expansion and a deepening of awareness, and connection within. It is a spiral dance that never ends.

Depending on the kind of attunement or activation one is receiving, a teacher may perform a series of specific energy manipulations, to help open up one's energy field and infuse power symbols (energetic activation keys) into one's aura. The teacher may also utilize Light Language, or specific energy infused phrases or energetic technologies to download codes of healing and empowerment for one to then be able  use both for themselves, and for working with others. During these processes, the teacher may also provide individual healing sessions and personalized meditations, to make sure that all the new codes and energies properly anchor, ground, and integrate for maximum expansion and benefit.
