Episode Details

In this episode of the Skeptic Metaphysician podcast, Will and Karen (the skeptics) ask me about Akashic Records Readings.

What Are the Akashic Records?

The first question and a great place to start was what are the Akashic Records? Many religions talk about a Book of Life and some actually talk about past lives like Buddhism, Jainism, and Judaism (according to Kabbalah).

There is a record in your book of everything you’ve done in this life and all your past lives. If you believe in reincarnation, then you know you come to earth to learn lessons and work through karma to lift your spirit, grow aspects of your soul and raise your vibration.

The Akashic Records track everything you’ve done with all the details. However, when I go into the Records, I’m looking for the big picture to help you solve a problem, find a solution, or better understand a situation.

Will asked if it’s like the Harry Potter library that goes on forever and my answer was, “Yes!” Some call it a temple, others call it a library. This is where the information comes from for Akashic Records readings.

How to Access the Akashic Records

His next question is how do I access the records and should he be worried about it? We had a good laugh. The way I do this is the same way I open my mind to intuition and mediumship. I tune in and ask a question for my client.

Someone might want to know why she had a tough relationship with her brother or other family member. Having a specific question helps me have something to focus on because my personal reason for doing this is to find solutions wherever I can. I’m looking for past lives reasons why something is happening now.

So, I’ll look for where a problem started, how it happened, what’s been the situation in previous lives, and how you might resolve the issue today. Will said I was like a cosmic problem solver – that sounded good to me!

Akashic Records Reading Example

Will wanted an example of how Akashic Records readings work. I told him about a young Japanese woman who came to me at a psychic fair years ago. ( I don’t work at fairs now.) This woman was curious about her most recent incarnation before this life. In accessing her information, I saw she was an American sailor who died in the bombing of Pearl Harbor.

Next she asked why she was afraid of loud noises and fireworks and why she had a fear of drowning. You can see how these phobias came from her untimely, watery death in her past life.

In this case, I was shocked by the bravery of her soul to come back as a Japanese woman – the people responsible for her death in that earlier life. Isn’t that amazing?

Choosing Life Lessons

Karen asked if I believe we choose who we come back as. As I understand the process, we make agreements to
