Essene logoI will be performing my end of the Healer attunement for the Modern Order of Essenes at noon and 6 pm Eastern daylight time on Saturday, May 20. If you have already received the Apprentice attunement and want to take the next step, or if you have already received the Healer attunement and would like to receive it a second time -- yes, you can do that -- here's what you need to do. 

Instructions for the Healer Attunement

To receive attunement as an Essene Healer, you will need to have learned and practiced all the Candidate, Apprentice, and Healer lessons, and to have received the Apprentice attunement

You will also need to choose some name of the Divine to invoke in your attunement. This may be a personal or an impersonal name.  If you have a relationship with a deity, you may choose to use the name of that deity. If not, you may use an impersonal term such as “the Divine” or “the Universe” in the relevant place.

If you have a religious or spiritual name distinct from your ordinary name, you may use this in the ritual, and there is a specific place for you to reference this in the attunement. If you intend to use your ordinary name, say your full name instead.

Approximately ten minutes before the attunement:

Dress comfortably, leaving the top of your head uncovered.  Sit in a comfortable position, with room for a person to stand behind as well as in front of you. Activate your palm centers as you have already learned to do.  Then enter into meditation, using whatever method you have practiced.

At the time of the attunement:

Become aware of the initiator standing behind you. Hear the following questions being asked, and give the answers out loud.

            Question:          What is your intention?

            Answer:            To become the Healing Heart of (name of the Divine)

            Question:          By what name do you wish to be initiated?

            Answer:            (States religious or spiritual name, magical motto, or ordinary name)

The initiator then says:

            (Name) become now the Healing Heart of (name of the Divine). 

The initiator traces a secret sign on the crown of your head, and then says:

            (Name) receive now the Breath of (name of the Divine) to activate your Healing Heart. 

The initiator breathes on the crown of your head, and traces four more secret signs, then says:

            This will help you establish the Pillar of Love to support your Healing Heart. 

The initiator moves around you to stand in front of you and says:

            In the name of (name of the Divine), I proclaim you Healer (Name).

This completes the attunement.

After the attunement:

Remain in meditation for a few more minutes to allow the attunement process to complete itself. For the weeks that follow, it is helpful to keep track of any new experiences you may have and to write down any unusual dreams you may recall.

I will be conferring the Master attunement at the same times on Saturday, May 27. I'll be giving instructions for that in advance, of course, but the process is fairly similar to the Healer attunement

I would like to receive this initiation again. I guess the likely effect is to imprint myself strongly with it?

Does it matter if some attunements are done more often than others? In particular, if one has missed the second apprentice attunement, but would now take the healer attunement the second time, could or would that create any imbalances?

Okay, then it follows that self-initiatory rituals like those of AODA can be repeated as well with good efect.

When i performed my candidate and apprentice initiations into AODA i felt that there where many dimensions to it, and i was only recognizing some of them.

Guillem,

Now I‘m confused - the attunement is only going to be later today (Saturday), isn‘t it?

Oh,okay,you are right. For some reason i was totally sure that it was going to be Yesterday! I'm a bit over loaded these days. Any way, at the very least i Practiced it, and i Can still Attend today!

Thank You!
