Hello Beautiful souls,
Today I’d like to explain what the Akashic Records are and why we would want to access them.
A few years ago when I started my journey of deep healing through some shadow work, I wasn’t yet familiar with the Akashic Records and what it was. I realize that if I’d have known sooner it might have helped speed up the process.
Working with the Akashic Realm is an excellent tool for personal growth and healing.
With some some practice and concentration many of us can all access the Akashic Realm, and you will find it is well worth the effort.
The Akashic Realm
So what really is the Akashic Realm?
The Akashic realm is a place in the etheric plane – or astral realm – that holds the collective Akashic Records for all of humanity.
It is the “Book of Life” which holds a dimension of wisdom that goes beyond what anyone can access through their personal Akashic Records.
Akasha (derived from a Sanskrit word) literally translates into “primary substance” or a “hidden place – to be”. This substance is a vibrational light – or thread – that holds imprints of every thought, word, and deed of all beings in the universe since the beginning of time. in other words the Soul of the World – and the Essence of all things.
The Records have been recognized in every Spiritual tradition and have been referenced since thousands of years. They were accessed by ancient people of various cultures, including the Druids, Egyptians, Christians, Mayans, Indians, Chaldeans, Greeks, Chinese, Hebrews, Tibetans, and other peoples of the Himalaya.
In this Realm there are divine spiritual beings who are referred to as the Guardians or Keepers of the Akashic Records. These Guardians help us access our Akashic Records, and protect the information contained there.
Your personal Akashic records – and why access them
Each one of us has a personal Akashic Record. It’s our soul’s “database” where everything that ever transpired – or will transpire – is recorded and processed through time and space. Our records support our soul’s growth, and is a safe space to access for information and healing.
Intuitive teacher and author Linda Howe, who leads workshops on accessing the Akashic records, says: “Today, the Records are no longer the exclusive domain of saints, scholars, and mystics. The collective consciousness of humanity has been growing, evolving, and maturing.” I have learned so much from Linda Howe, and her methods on how to access the records really worked for me.
It’s important to realize that there is no one right way to access the Akashic records. I use prayer and meditation like most people do, but you will have to find what works best for you. It’s through a centered, grounded state that you can allow yourself to receive the knowledge and wisdom stored there.
Your angelic guides, ancestors, and loved ones that passed will also be there when you access your records to give you guidance. You might see figures or shapes, or written words, or you could hear voices speaking – but usually you will receive information through an inner knowing, a sort of sixth sense.
When I first began my visits to the Akashic Records, I was working on my own personal healing. I realized that it can be hard to be objective when working on our own soul’s journey – our inner critic of self doubt can easily distract us.
This is why I also asked for help from other oracles that were already familiar with the Akashic realm, to help and support me in my journey. I later realized that while anyone can access their own records, sometimes it really helps to have another read them for us initially to help us become familiar with how it works.
In all my Soul sessions for others I help them see what is already there – but that their self doubt was possibly blocking or hiding. I help support their journey towards awareness and healing.
Spiritual healing can only happen through self-acceptance and processing what the records bring up to be released. They never impose themselves on us or interfere with our choices. They don’t tell us what to do, they simply offer guidance from a place of compassion and love, responding to our cry of help and assistance.
The Akashic Records can help us heal and grow by providing us with the understanding we need to move forward in our lives. They empower us so we can create a real change, release any self-limiting beliefs, and find our way back to our innermost self.
I really hope this article gave you some insight and understanding on this realm, and that it will help you continue to grow in your soul’s path and life’s journey.
With so much love and light,
Katrina
