Attunements and Activations On a journey of learning that involves healing and other metaphysical activities we come across these two words. They are often used interchangeably by many teachers, healers and metaphysical students when talking about what they have done or can do for you. What are "Attunements" and "Activations" and how do they assist us or can they be detrimental to us? They can: 1. Provide energy they do not have. (and hopefully need) 2. Connect energies within oneself that are inactive, or not fully active. 3. Connect the individual to something outside them that can affect them. 4. Place openings in energy fields that other energies can come through. (often to things not intended by the recipient nor the individual doing the procedure) 5. Connect to the person doing the activations/attunement. This should be looked at very carefully. When connecting to another person you are also connecting to whatever they connect to. 6. For other purposes you are not aware of. I resonate with #1 and #2. I am very discerning of #3 and exclude those in #4, #5 and #6 as they lead to control over people and can create many problems in our lives. #6 is the most important to look into. When completing activations at sacred sites much can happen. There is both positive and negative energy there to affect you. What is being done can be greatly influenced by what you do not see or feel. What is the intent of each activation and how is it site specific? How does it assist those being activated/attuned? Whose needs are being fed, on what levels? What may be a truth on one level is not on another. Are activations/attunements permanent? NO, unless you believe they are. Anyone who tells you they are permanent is either unaware of what can be undone or has other reasons for saying so. Anything that can be done can be undone. If you do not like what an attunement brings you, have it removed. Enjoy the benefits of attunements from healing Modalities. One example is Reiki, the attunements are the connection to that healing energy. Another is The Reconnection. (see information on those healing modalities) The list is endless as new ones are constantly being created for many purposes. Attunements can also create openings in your energy fields. Some healing modalities such as Consegrity teach that openings created by attunements should be closed. I understand concerns over having any openings in our energy fields.
