A Reiki Master is ready to proceed to these Higher Degrees when:

• She/he has a sense that there is 'more to learn'
  
  
• They find that the symbols they are currently using 'come to them' rather than needing to think about using them
  

Each degree, with an average of 5 hours per course, has a specific purpose, attunement, and 6 to 10 attuned symbols.


An example would be the following 4th degree course:
