AKASHIC RECORDS FAQ
Q: What is an Akashic reading like?
A: We start with a conversation to clarify your focus. Then we do a grounding
meditation, to move from your head into your body and ground your roots in
nurturing Earth energies.
At a point, the guides ‘PING!’ me to your open your Records. As they “log in,” I
say a prayer of respect and gratitude to ask for wisdom, insight and upliftment. As
your records open, I relate what comes through.
Sessions are interactive. You can ask questions. I will continuously bring the
reading back to you and ask you what you are sensing and feeling in your body. You
may feel expanded, as if you’re in a trance. Be prepared to receive and to go
deep. Plan on quiet time alone after.
Q: How does a session start?
A: Every session follows its own right-brain logic. We start with a check-in. You
share your concerns and bring me up to date on changes that have occurred since
your last session.
During the grounding and centering process, we make any needed adjustments in your
energy body to prepare you to receive healing. This includes clearing energetic
debris, working with colored light or sound.
Q: How do I know when the reading is over?
A: The energy changes when the Records start to close. I’ll read a prayer to
ceremonially close your records and seal them until another time. At that point, I
will no longer have access to your Records, until you have another reading.
Q: Do I ask a general question, or does it need to be more specific?
A: The more specific, the better. Provide basic background information. Being
succinct, specific and open about what you need saves time, and supports
receptivity and shared trust. Try not to play hide and seek with your issues.
Q: Can I ask what’s going to happen in my relationship? Or if I’m going to find a
new job?
A: Avoid asking yes or no questions or questions about predicting the future. The
Akashic doesn’t predict the future, though at times, you’ll get indications about
where you’re headed, more like a probability than a prediction.
Q: Once the Records are open, do you just talk, or do I talk too?
A: We are co-creating your experience together. As the reading progresses, I’ll
check in with you. I’ll ask how you feel and guide you to tune in to sensations in
your body and share them with me. This helps you receive healing in a grounded way
that is sustainable and steady.
Q: How can energy get blocked in my body?
A: Here are some ways energy can get blocked in your body:
Suppressed emotions
Shock
Trauma
Surgery under general anesthesia
Drugs and addictions
Blocked nadis or meridian flows
Residue of emotions imprinted from past events, past lives, epigenetic factors from
our ancestors.
Energy cysts—encapsulated suppressed emotions stored in a specific place, causing
pain or dis-ease in your body
Q: How does an Akashic Healing help me release blocked energy?
A: Hidden, denied or suppressed emotions are dense and create stagnation. Akashic
Healings opens space to address discomfort in a spacious way, with greater ease and
grace. As you align with your Higher Self, you can bear witness to your situation
with wisdom and compassion. You’re able to be present with feelings that have felt
too big or too deep to reach.
You’re not going into the shadow alone. Like a deep sea diving partner, I’m with
you, holding a space of safety and support, while the guides work with you. As
powerful as it is, the process is gentle and kind.
We live in a culture where we’re mostly alone with our deep emotions. In an Akashic
Healing, your emotions surface in a safe, supported, respectful ways. You are held
and witnessed without judgment, fear or resistance. The reading helps move emotions
out of density into space. You feel lighter, freer and more loving. You may need to
rest afterward, as if you’d had emotional surgery. Or you may need to DANCE, to
help ground the changes in your nervous system.
It’s common to feel a sense of rebirth and renewal after your healing.
Q: I’ve heard that opening the Akashic Record is like opening Pandora’s Box, that
bad things may come out. Is it safe to have a reading?
A: Yes, you will be kept safe safe. “Bad things” are a slang term for shadow work.
I have written extensively about shadow work below.
Readings address both how you feel and what you need. If you feel anxious before a
reading, tell me. The first time I had a reading, I was afraid of what might come
out. Instead, my reading was loving and kind.
Q: Do I have to believe in past lives to benefit from a reading?
A: No. You don’t have to believe in the literal existence of past lives. Patterns
from past lives come forward when we carry unfinished business that aren’t rooted
in the current lifetime.
Whether or not reincarnation is literally true, past life work is valuable, even if
you see it as metaphor. Unfinished business of the soul can create “problems,”
whose causal effects are not found in this life. I have personally experienced
tremendous benefit from healing misunderstandings and unresolved pain from past
lives. This is true for my clients as well.
I recommend keeping an open mind.
Q: Can the Akashic Record help me with unfinished business from THIS lifetime?
A: Yes! Most of us have plenty of material in our present life to work with. We may
have unfinished business from times times when our needs went unmet. These events
may occur in adulthood, adolescence, childhood, birth or even our time in the womb.
The Akashic Record takes Inner Child work to a whole new level. You learn self-
parenting. You become the wise, wholesome parent your Inner Child didn’t have. You
release fear, resistance and self-judgment when you learn to adore your inner
child.
Q: I do believe in past lives. Can a reading help heal karmic influences?
A: Yes. All significant experiences you have ever had, in this or any lifetime, are
encoded in the Akashic Record. Themes from past lives arise in a reading when you
have unresolved emotions or unfinished lessons, which are affecting you in your
life NOW.
For example, in a past life you may have died feeling guilty about a situation over
which you had no control, such as war or a fire. Despite a deep desire to stop what
was happening and save lives, you were unable to change things. In this lifetime
you may take undue responsibility for people and situations over which you have no
control. You may need to learn to release what you can’t control and to accept what
you don’t want, or to forgive humanity or God. You may need to overcome issues
around guilt and lack of trust, that show up in repeating patterns.
You may find the root cause of repeating patterns in your life. Clients have
overcome limitations such as debilitating shyness due to being ostracized in a past
life.
If you want detailed descriptions about the place and time where a past life is
set, consider working with a hypnotherapist who specializes in PL regressions. In
an Akashic reading, the focus is on the lessons and the healing.
Q: Can I get information about a specific past life about which I already have
partial information?
A: Maybe. If you already know about a past life, you many not need to know more,
even if your ego wants more of the story. Rather than asking about a specific past
life, ask for help with an issue, challenge or need, or a place where you feel
stuck. Trust that you will receive what is in your Highest Good. The focus is not
on information, but on healing through energy transmission.
Q: How can a reading help me?
A: Here are three situations in which an Akashic reading is a great choice:
You are trying to make a big decision.
You have had losses or painful experiences from which you have not fully recovered.
You want to understand the underlying patterns in your life.
Readings are akin to spiritual psychotherapy. Your questions will be answered from
a higher perspective.
Q: What is shadow work?
A: The word “shadow” was used by Carl Jung to describe repressed or disowned parts
of ourselves. Shadow emotions are ones we tend to avoid, such as anger, fear, grief
and hurt. Most of us have had overwhelming experiences we were not equipped to deal
with. Such experiences leave an imprint.
If buried emotions are causing you pain, the pain you already feel is as great as
it can be. Numbness is a sign of pain that has become so intolerable, all feeling
has shut down.This is a protective mechanism that we may need for short periods of
time, but it is not meant to become a lifelong pattern.
The way out of pain is to pass from darkness to Light. I have trained in shadow
work for many years. I can help you find the gift buried there and integrate it
into your heart.
Journeying into your shadow to retrieve what is lost and restore it to wholeness is
what shamans call Soul Retrieval. Soul Retrieval resolves karma, so lessons do not
have to be repeated.
When you are ready to consciously connect with painful emotions, I hold the ground
for you with reassurance, safety and unconditional love.
Q: Do I have to do shadow work?
A: No. There is never any “have to” in this work. Many sessions have no shadow
work.
Q: When do you recommend email readings?
A: Email is the best option in situations that makes it hard to be on the phone.
This can be due to travel, lack of privacy, illness or surgery. And some people
simply prefer the written word as a means of transmission.
Q: How can an Akashic reading help me through surgery?
Through the Akashic record, we can “pre-pave” the way to a better outcome with ease
and grace. I call this pre-paving. Walking your psyche step by step through the
process to come creates energetic pathways in your field, and prepares your nervous
system. Your subconscious mind has a powerful effect on your body and your health.
It’s highly beneficial to prepare for big events, such as:
surgery
wedding
PhD dissertation
asking for a promotion
optimizing your severance package
preparing for birth
preparing for death
helping a loved one cross over during and after death has occurred
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------
What’s it like to have a reading?
When you wish to access your records you usually have a question or questions on
your mind. This serves to magnetize you to the information.
Like a modern day reference library, information is cross indexed in many ways.
Unlike a library, the Akashic Records are alive. Moreover, the beings called Record
Keepers ensoul both the record and the holder of the record. This is why you will
feel such a loving support in a session.
The Record Keepers are beings that reside in a non-duality mode where their joy,
humor, intelligence and unconditional love permeate their communications. Their
intelligence shows up through the insight the ARI Guides.
Our guides hear specific words that are often provided literally as dictation.
One of the primary differences of this tradition is that Akashic Records
International Guides are NOT consultants! We are guides, and scribes.
We carry the wisdom and information of the Guides without bias or opinion.
ARI Guides always begin with opening remarks. This sets the tone for your remaining
session.
Opening Remarks are a download directly from the Guides who are responding to your
thoughts or questions you have when you decide to have a session.
Opening Remarks often validate the authenticity of your reading in the moment.
Where/How are readings done?
Usually Phone or Skype or Facetime. In-person readings may be requested with a
Guide in your area. Check our Guides’ profiles for locations. When you register for
your reading, be sure to indicate that you want an in-person reading and we will
send you her contact information.
How long is my session?
Generally the session is about 50 minutes.
This decision is best made when your appointment is confirmed, so that we can
schedule in the extra time.
We may stop, and pause, collecting, centering the information that is provided.
We work with our Higher Self and guides who then make a space for YOUR GUIDES to
channel through.
What if our session takes longer than the regular 50 minutes?
We find that most people start to repeat their questions after 50 minutes, so we
encourage your session to be 50 minutes.
Occasionally a longer session is needed.
Please let us know if you feel you need more time, as we will be happy to book an
additional session time at your appointment time.
Will you record my reading?
Yes, we are equipped to record your session and send you an electronic sound file
within a few days of your session.
There is an additional fee for this of $15.
Do you take clients from other countries?
Yes. We will work with you by phone, Skype,Facetime (IPhone) or email.
Can you answer questions for my family members?
Only as they pertain to you.
Other family members may wish to have their own reading.
Will the ARI Guide remember details?
Our guides are in the background and generally do not remember the reading.
If you remind us, or ask a question afterwards then perhaps memories will be
available.
This information is not moving through the conscious mind, so it’s not remembered
mentally.
It is stored in “hearing memory” rather than cognitive memory of our guide.
What types of information do you need to get started?
We require your full legal name.
If you are a Jr. or Sr or share the same first and last name of a family member, we
will ask you provide us your middle name.
We do NOT ask for birth information nor details of your situation until your
sessions unfolds.
What is the number of questions permitted?
You may ask as many questions as you wish.
Usually, though, a person tends to start repeating the questions after about an
hour.
What’s the number of readings possible?
Actually we recommend multiple readings over a period of time.
As you shift and follow the advice of the record keepers, your own personal growth
reflects the need for new information based on you becoming the best YOU following
the guidance of your record keepers.
A great multiple to start with is to sign up for three readings and then space them
four to six weeks apart.
What’s the different between an Akashic Records reading and a psychic or intuitive
reading, or angel card reading?
Your Akashic Record Guides are to give you the big picture of your life, your plan,
what’s working, what’s missing. It’s a wisdom channel of everything you know about
yourself that allows you to see yourself from a loving, supportive space.
Akashic Records Guides launch from Fifth Dimension, a place of non-polarity, which
means their personality and opinions are out of the way – and are asking for direct
assistance and oversight from the Ascended Masters for oversight.You will be
addressed by your loving, gentle guides who advise you from a place of
unconditional love and acceptance.
Although an Akashic Records Session isn’t a psychic reading, predictions may be
available although predictive information often comes through.

Frequently asked Questions about Akashic Records readings
Akashic Records FAQ
Before you have your first Akashic Records reading with Neil there may be certain
questions that you ask yourself. These questions may be about your uncertainties or
fears that you might have concerning the readings. Let us explore some of them:
How do I decide what questions I should ask?
Sample_questions_akashic_records
The reading is based on your questions. You should ask open-ended questions that
don’t require one-word answers, otherwise, it may be a very short reading.
Questions should begin with why, what, how,
etc.
For example: Why do I feel this way about a certain event? Why am I stuck in this
situation that I don’t like? How would a move help my progress? What sort of job
should I look for? What is my highest potential and how can I reach it? Is there a
path that I can follow and if so, can you give me some direction?
These sorts of questions help me to open up pathways and solutions for you. If your
questions are too general such as “Why is everything in my life so bad? Then the
answers may also be quite generic. It would be much more beneficial for you to look
at specific areas of your life that you require answers for. Ask about things that
matter to you, about how you can make improvements to your life and how you can
discover things about yourself. These sorts of questions allow the Akashic Records
to provide clarity for your life’s journey.
What if I am not sure that I want to hear the answers?
The Akashic Records are non- judgmental. You would not receive any answers that
would cause you distress or negativity. The records shine a light on your path to
bring clarity and break down blocks and limitations in your life.
But will I have karmic debt and how do I deal with this?
The Akashic Records will reveal any karma that needs untangling or healing. This,
in turn, starts a gentle process of healing so that you become untangled from any
karma that you may have caused. If any situation needs to be corrected then you
will be shown a positive way to achieve this.
What will I do with the information that I receive if I don’t feel strong enough to
act on it?
The information that you receive will be given to you in such a way that you don’t
need to do anything if you don’t want to. It is not a process of commands or steps
that you must follow. You will receive constructive advice on how to improve the
situations that concern you. You may also be shown why those situations arose and
any karma that caused them.
Would I get to know more than what I asked for and if I did would you tell me?
Sometimes a lot of information comes through that wasn’t originally asked for. This
information is to help you along your life journey. The Records would not provide
any information that would be difficult for you to process.
Clients often tell me that I am direct in the answers that I give but also very
gentle as well. Sometimes clients tell me that I tell them things that they hadn’t
anticipated but it was the best thing that I could have told them. For example, a
lot of clients want me to tell them that they will meet their soul mate within a
certain period of time
. When I tell them that maybe they are looking in the wrong places or need to
change some of their criteria, it is like a “wake up call”. It may not be what they
wanted to hear at that time but it was they needed to hear to find their soul mate.
What do I do with the information I receive after the reading?
Akashci Records idea
There is no commitment for you to do anything at all! You will receive guidance
regarding various parts of your life journey but it is entirely up to you whether
you follow the advice or not. There is no judgment, whatsoever. I would strongly
recommend that you listen to the recording, at least, a couple of times. This will
help you to process the information that you have been given. Then write down the
points that hold the most importance to you. This will reinforce the advice and
its’ worth to you. Also, you will be able to easily refer to it without having to
try and find it again within the recording. Just let the information sink in and
allow your mind to process it at your own pace. Notice how your life unfolds after
the reading! You can act on, or discard, any, or all, information that is shared
during the reading.
Summary
I hope that this helps to alleviate some of the main concerns for new or
prospective clients. During an Akashic Records reading with me, I will give you
both spiritual and practical advice on how to reach your highest potential.
However, you should remember that it is only a reading and there is no obligation
for you to follow any of the information or advice given to you. The Akashic
Records do not give information that will unnerve or frighten you in any way. They
are full of supportive and constructive guidance for your enlightenment on your
journey through this life. If you are thinking of having an Akashic Records reading
with me, please allow me to reassure you that you will be happy that you did! If
you require any further information then please explore the rest of my website.

Reading the Akashic Records for Your Soul
When Ashley Wood started her first podcast, Manifest This, she wanted to talk about
food and wellness. That lasted about one episode. Pregnant for the first time, Wood
was feeling a strange pull to develop the psychic gifts that she’d first begun
exploring as a child. A friend mentioned How to Read the Akashic Records by Linda
Howe, a 1997 publication known to spiritual navigators as the handbook to the
nonphysical, vibrational library called the Akashic records. Those who frequent it
say this space contains every thought, emotion, and experience that has ever
happened to every soul that has ever existed. Or: It’s a Google search for your
soul, says Wood. Opening the records sparked electricity and an odd feeling of
remembrance—Wood says it was like coming home.
Later, Wood channeled that energy into readings for other people. She provides
information from the time your soul was created—if you believe in going there, Wood
pulls out vivid images of past lives—to the future possibilities yet to manifest.
What do you do with this, besides past life voyeurism? Wood’s clients use what
resonates to guide them in all sorts of ways: when building a business, starting a
new project, moving apartments. She believes the Akashic records can become the
most powerful tool in your spiritual kit.
A Q&A with Ashley Wood
Q
What kind of information is available to you when you open the Akashic records?
A
We can find information from the time your soul was created, about your past lives,
present situations, and future possibilities as well. It’s always revealed to you
what you need to learn in that moment, at that time, to support you on your
journey.
The records are a unique modality. The information is 100 percent focused on that
person whose records are open, so if you want to learn about someone else, you have
to first ask for consent to go into their records. Anything you learn about someone
else will be through the perception of your record or your interpretation of that
person. You don’t learn about anyone else’s soul’s path.
You can also use the records for business. You can use it for a creative process.
You can open up the record of a physical space by entering the address as opposed
to the name of the person into the prayer. If you’re going to go in just for
yourself, you can ask about career, finances, love, inspiration. People have used
them to write books and screenplays. What you can learn in that space is infinite.
Q
How do you learn to read the Akashic records?
A
Anyone can learn to read the Akashic records because it is a history of our souls.
You do not have to be psychic. The degree and amount of information you receive
will vary based on your own personal and unique gifts, but everybody has this
access. Some people are very detail-oriented, so maybe they receive more-complex
information. Some people see through color, or they might experience messages
through music or dance. But everyone has the ability to tap into their records and
learn this.
The records are typically accessed through a prayer called the Pathway Prayer. The
prayer is a vibrational frequency composed of specific sounds that allow you to
access the Akashic records. My program How to Read the Akashic Records shows you
how to do it my way. It gives a lot more freedom on rules and how to go about
entering the records. When you are able to unlock this encyclopedia of support, you
have that for the rest of your life. It is like having a guide in your back pocket.
That being said, it might be too intense for people to have that amount of
information. That access might intimidate them.
Q
What is your method of accessing the records?
A
There is an energetic frequency that runs through our bodies. I call it the line,
and it comes from the highest realm in the universe where the Akashic records
exist. Through this line, you’re receiving messages 24/7. When you pick up on these
messages, it feels like an intuitive hit or an inner knowing. The line is almost
like an inner filing system for yourself. That’s the difference between working
with the records. You’re not reading the Akashic records for other people, but the
messages you receive may be about someone else.
When I started working with the records, I was struggling to put this all together.
I was told by my guides in the records that my purpose in this life is to modernize
the Akashic records, to make them accessible and easy. So I teach a free line
activation, and anyone can do it at any time. It’s a breathwork and movement
practice.
My workshop series Clear the Line helps you open the line for a deeper level of
psychic awareness. It walks you through hypnotic meditations and journaling to peel
back the limiting beliefs you have about yourself so you can know yourself with a
soul-level awareness. When you are at your soul’s core, you are your most powerful—
that’s your guiding light, showing you where to go and how to lead your own life.
Personally, I believe that everyone is accessing the records at all times. Even if
we are completely unaware, we are always getting these messages through our soul.
Even at our lowest points we can pray and get access to this energy.
Q
How can we learn about our past lives through the line?
A
I’ve done 500 readings at this point, and when I bring up past lives, people say,
“I’ve had that memory since I was a child” or “I have that dream all the time.” So
we put together this workshop to piece together your past life memories and gain an
understanding that for deep healing, you’ve come into this life with past life
existences and past life memories and past life things to heal. Everything is
connected, and you can find this within the line.

FAQs about Akashic Records Readings
Published on April 20, 2021
Karishma Manchanda

Bestselling Author, Originator of Healing with Akashic Records, Transformational
Hypnotherapist, Past Life Therapist & Spiritual Life Coach
Before you have your first consultation with me on Akashic Records or Soul
Profiling, there may be certain questions that you may be asking yourself. These
questions may be about your uncertainties or doubts you might have concerning the
readings.
Let us explore some of them:
How do I decide what questions I should ask?
While most of the client’s approach to seek guidance, it is important to note that
the future remains fluidic. Even if an Akashic Records Consultant does a future
reading for you, it may not exactly manifest as such since the reading is based on
your current energies. Each day we go through so many experiences. Every experience
alters our energy signature and thus the future changes. Besides, future reading
presents one of the many possibilities that exist as your future. So, if you may
ask me, is Akashic Records best for predictions, my response perhaps be a no!
However, it is worth noting that the blocks to what you wish to manifest as your
future is where your attention should be. Once you can recognize the karmic blocks
that hinder the manifestation of the future you wish to create, the energy starts
to shift. We recommend opting for a Soul Profiling Report that details out your
present energy signature, karmic blocks, lifetime themes, chakra assessment, and
most importantly, assess in case you are carrying any foreign energies such as
black magic, wayward or disembodied spirit etc. It also presents in case there may
be any karmic blocks coming from past lives as the report itself includes a
detailed analysis of your core issue. This information is retrieved from your
Akashic Records. Curses, oaths, vows taken in a past life may have a deep impact on
the current situation and must be released with our signature Karmic Clearing
Sessions.
So, what kind of questions can be asked?
Questions should begin with why what, how, etc. Questions such as when and by whom
are not usually answered by the Records, and there are valid reasons for this.
Akashic Records do not operate in a linear timeline. This means, anything that has
happened even a minute ago or a hundred past lives ago will still be considered as
your past. Names of people who have done something wrong to you such as ‘who sent
this evil eye or did black magic to me?’ are also not answered.
This is typically for two reasons. One: the realm of akasha is non-judgemental and
all-loving. It provides only as much information as you are ready to face. Besides,
one must understand that it is we who attract such things from others due to our
karmic baggage. Our free will and soul contract contributed to manifest this
blockage, thus there is no point blaming someone else, Second, the names are also
not revealed so that it does not cause to establish rivalry or create further
karmic entanglement with that person. The Akasha is a high vibratory instrument to
assist you in your personal development and spiritual growth- not the other way
round.
When we can heal the karma based on the information received, we pave the path for
newer opportunities. This happens because we start to use the Law of Attraction to
our advantage. As your karmic clearing sessions proceed, you will find more peace,
calm, and surrender too, which is a by-product of the karmic clearing.
What if I am not sure that I want to hear the answers?
The Akashic Records are non- judgmental. You would not receive any answers that
would cause you distress or negativity. The records shine a light on your path to
bring clarity and break down blocks and limitations in your life. The records never
reveal what you are not ready for. It must always be remembered that the Akashic
Records offer us a tool to alleviate our sufferings and become conscious beings of
light. The records will never present any information that may put you into a
downward, negative spiral or create more karmic baggage.
But will I have karmic debt and how do I deal with this?
The Akashic Records will reveal any karma that needs untangling or healing. This,
in turn, starts a gentle process of healing so that you become untangled from any
karma that you may have caused. If any situation needs to be corrected, then you
will be shown a positive way to achieve this. You may opt for Karmic Clearing
Sessions from an Akashic Records Consultant or become an Akashic Records
Practitioner to heal yourself. Allow your soul to guide you!
What will I do with the information that I receive if I do not feel strong enough
to act on it?
The information that you receive will be given to you in such a way that you do not
need to do anything if you do not want to. It is not a process of commands or steps
that you must follow. You will receive constructive advice on how to improve the
situations that concern you. You may also be shown why those situations arose and
any karma that caused them. Those who really wish to upgrade their karma are
advised to opt for Karmic Clearing Sessions. or become an Akashic Records
Practitioner to heal themselves.
Besides, it must be understood that the information from the Akashic Records is
provided to you for a reason. If your Soul was not ready for karmic entanglement,
it would have not reached this place. There is nothing called coincidence in life.
Sometimes deep shame and guilt to face self, present circumstances render us from
choosing to heal our blocks. This may manifest as not having enough money to enrol
for a course or karmic clearing. While in certain cases, money may actually be an
issue, but the soul will find a way out to organize money. But in most other cases,
procrastination pours in! It must be understood that it is not because of limited
funds but the resistance of your own self to face your karma due to deep shame and
guilt because of which the Karma was created in the first place.
I thus advise you to gather courage, be wise, and stand for what your soul is
aligning you for.
Will I get to know more than what I asked for?
Once you register for the Soul Profiling, we align a telephonic consultation to
understand your issue. You are encouraged to provide us with as much information as
necessary for the session, restraining the conversation to the core issue. This
helps us tap into your energies better. There is other information that is also
required such as your full legal name, DOB, close up photograph etc.
During the session, when we connect to your Akashic Records, sometimes a lot of
information comes through that was not originally asked for. This information is to
help you along your life journey. The Akashic Records would not provide any
information that would be difficult for you to process or something that you are
not ready to face.
Sometimes clients tell me that I tell them things that they had not anticipated but
it was the best thing that I could have told them. For example, a lot of clients
want me to tell them that they will meet their soul mate within a certain period.
During the consultation session, when I educate them about karma they need to
clarify first in order to manifest their soul mate, they are sold! Sometimes, the
response is, “Ahaa, I knew something like this was the reason”, or “I completely
resonate with this etc”. Much of the times, it is like a “wake up call”. It may not
be what they wanted to hear at that time, but it was they needed to hear know.
What do I do with the information I receive after the reading?
There is no commitment for you to do anything at all!
You will receive guidance regarding various parts of your life journey, but it is
entirely up to you whether you follow the advice or not. There is no judgment,
whatsoever. I would strongly recommend that you listen to the recording/read the
details shared in the Soul Profiling, at least, a couple of times. This will help
you to process the information that you have been given.
Our recommendations for karmic clearing and crystal prescriptions also form a part
of the soul profiling report. When your Soul is ready, it will automatically guide
you. Just remain in awareness and be open to what you are intuitively guided
towards, and most importantly, act on it!
I hope that this helps to alleviate some of the main concerns for new or
prospective clients. However, you should remember that it is only a reading and
there is no obligation for you to follow any of the information or advice was given
to you. The Akashic Records do not give information that will unnerve or frighten
you in any way. They are full of supportive and constructive guidance for your
enlightenment on your journey through this life. If you are thinking of having an
Akashic Records reading with me, please allow me to reassure you that you will be
happy that you did!
If you require any further information, then please explore the rest of my website.
There are lots more articles about the Akashic Records and other spiritual matters,
karmic blocks and much more.
Alternatively, you still have not found the answers that you were looking for then
please get in touch with me.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What exactly are the Akashic Records anyway?
A: The Akashic Records are the vibrational recordings of everything you’ve ever
thought, felt, done or said in every life you’ve had since you first individuated
as a soul. That includes every life on every planet, in every dimension, plane or
realm, probably starting thousands of years ago.
Q: What kinds of questions can I ask?
A: You can ask questions about almost anything you can think of regarding your
health, career, relationships, life purpose, self-esteem and abundance or lack
thereof. Once you schedule a consultation, a list of questions will be sent to you
to help you formulate your own list for the session.
Q: What if I don’t know what to ask?
A: We can always ask your Akashic Record Keepers what they want you to know at this
time and go from there.
Q: Can you tell me about my future?
A: If the actions and decisions we make daily did not alter the future, then yes, I
could. However, the future is not written in stone, it is a fluid moving energy
governed by your own free will. You get to choose what your future is and you can
change it any moment of any day. You can, though, use the information received
during a reading to make better decisions for your future and that is the key.
Q: Can you read my child’s records?
A: For various reasons, I do not offer readings for anyone under 18 years old.
Q: Is the consultation confidential?
A: Yes, the information received during a consultation is from your own soul’s
records and is intended for your own soul’s growth. You may share the results of
your reading with your friends or family as you choose, but I will always keep your
consultation strictly confidential.
Q: What is the point of having an Akashic Record consultation?
A: The whole reason for having an Akashic Record consultation is to find out who
you are at a Soul level, what have you done, where have you been, why do you feel
trapped or held down or even abandoned, why do you believe what you believe about
your present self? We can also identify and clear the blocks and/or restrictions
that are holding you back from living the life you have always dreamed of.
Q: What religion are the Akashic Records tied to?
A: Virtually every ancient religion makes reference to an Akashic library, an
energetic database that contains every Soul’s records. Christianity calls it the
Book of Life, the Jewish tradition refers to it as the Book of Remembrance. More
importantly, it is essential that you adopt an open mind to the information that
your Soul would have you know!
Q: Do we need to be in the same room for the consultation?
A: No, since the records are energetically contained, I can access your information
from anywhere in the world. Consultations are conducted via conference call
(instructions provided when your appointment is booked).

Akashic FAQ
YOUR PREPARATION
The more prepared you are coming into an Akashic Records reading, the better. The
Records are best engaged with you being conscious, responsible, and deliberate.
Plan your questions ahead of time – you can certainly come up with new ones,
follow-ups, and clarifying questions in the moment, but I invite you to put some
thought into what you want to ask ahead of time.
“When” questions often don’t get the sort of response people hope for because time
is such an illusion. Time does not exist in the Records as they are eternal. They
exist everywhere, all at once – there is nothing but an infinite here and now.
Questions of “what,” “why,” or “how” often work best. The Records really enjoy
answering about specifics. If you ask vague, general questions, that is often the
sort of answer you will receive. If you ask “yes” or “no” questions, you will get
abrupt responses.
Avoid asking questions containing “supposed to”, “must do.” Such questions deprive
you of your natural freedom of choice and imply a level of judgment that does not
exist in the Akashic Records.
During the call
Your Masters and Teachers in the Records will help guide you to the information
that would serve you most, and I may ask questions on your behalf if I feel they
are wanting to share something but you haven’t framed a question in a manner to
receive such information. The Keepers of the Records will never give you
information you are not ready for, and often, more important than the words they
share is the energy they are embedded in.
If you don’t understand any answer you receive, I encourage you to ask for more
clarity, ask for it to be rephrased, ask if there is anything more you need to
know, ask if there is a best next step for you take… You can ask follow up
questions, questions that pop into your head in the moment etc, you are not
restricted in asking only questions you prepared ahead of time.
Once I open your record on a call, please do your best not to address me by name. I
am channeling information from Spirit to you. I am saying to you exactly what your
Masters, Teachers, Guides and Loved Ones are telling me. If you say, “Andy, how are
you doing this?” or “Andy, ask them…” it takes me just the slightest bit out of the
experience. You can just ask questions, you don’t need to address anyone. If you
reach a point when you have no more questions, simply say, “I have no more
questions.” Better yet, I recommend asking something like, “Is there anything else
you would like to share with me at this time?”
What can I ask about?
You can ask any question you like, but questions that truly mean something to you,
questions grounded in and chosen with full consciousness, responsibility, and
deliberateness are best. No subject is off-limits. You can ask about any aspect of
your life which you would like healing, guidance, or information on.
Can I ask about other people?
You can only access your own records. Any information you receive about
relationships with others will include only what is in your record about that
person.
What about the future?
An Akashic Record reading is not a form of fortune telling. While there is
information about your past, present and future – the future is dynamic. The
information is about possibilities and potential. There are not predictions about
your future because your free will to choose removes any certainty in predictions.
You can receive information about what is needed to help you move forward to your
ultimate desires.
Your Record is constantly being updated as you exercise your free will; making
choices and taking actions.
Are readings in person or over the phone?
While I can do readings in person, the vast majority of my work is done over the
phone. If you are outside of the United States, we can connect via Skype.
Can anyone get an Akashic Records reading?
Every single person, pet, life-form, business, home… has their own record. Akashic
Records can only be opened with full permission. Therefore I can only work with
people over the age of 18. I can open the record of your business, home, pet…
anything you legally own, but I cannot open the records of your under-age children
for you or them.
What is the difference between an Akashic Records reading and Soul Entrainment®?
In a Soul Entrainment session, you are placed into an deep state of relaxation to
connect with your own soul, ask questions and receive information.
In an Akashic Records reading, I channel information from your Records in response
to questions you ask. So the main difference is who the direct receiver of the
information is.
Can I give an Akashic Records reading as a gift?
Yes, provided the gift recipient is at least 18 years old and wants a reading. You
can’t force a reading on somebody. Also, buying the session does not mean you get
to know anything that happens during it.
When buying a session as a gift, simply enter the name and email of the recipient
in the “Add a message for Andy” box during the PayPal checkout. Once the purchase
is complete, you’ll be brought to a page with a link to book the session. You can
share that calendar link with your gift recipient so they can book the time that is
best for them.
Can I take notes?
Yes, that is recommended. Do not attempt to capture every single word, just what
resonates most with you. Important phrases are often repeated to make sure you
understand them.
Are calls recorded?
I can record calls if you so choose and will get you access to an mp3 file of your
reading within 48 hours of your session. I don’t recommend listening to your call
over and over months or years later. Your reading is very much about where you are
in the exact moment of asking the questions. If you dwell on the information months
or years later you could be stagnating yourself without realizing it.
How often should I have an Akashic Reading?
As with all self-development tools, it is really up to you. You could engage in a
session whenever you have new questions or want more information/guidance. As a
general rule of thumb, I advise at least 4 weeks between readings, to allow the
prior information and energy to integrate and to ensure you don’t overly rely on
the Records. The Akashic Records are not meant to be a crutch to avoid making your
own life decisions. Also, a great question to ask in your session might be,”Is
there an optimum time frame for me to have another reading?” or “Would it serve my
highest good to have additional readings? If so, how often?”
WHAT ARE THE AKASHIC RECORDS?
The following was giving to me when I asked in my own Records:
How can I best describe the Akashic Records to someone in written word?
The records are a higher realm, a vibrational storage place of all of your
thoughts, feelings, actions and choices spanning all of your many lifetimes.
Connecting to your records brings you to a heightened state of vibration. There is
an increase in your energetic scale allowing you to receive not just words and
information, but a higher plane of energy.
Your records are not to keep score or judge you. They are neutral and objective. As
the overall consciousness of humanity increases, more and more people are able to
access the Akashic Records; more and more people are able to receive fully, the
power, blessings, love and support available to them from their Record Keepers,
Masters, Teachers and Loved Ones.
The Records do not tell you what to do, rather empower you to choose what you most
want to do. Your Akashic Record is constantly being updated as you make choices and
take actions. Your future is not set in stone, it is a field of limitless, infinite
possibilities and potential. You are the universe and the universe is you.
Anything else to add?
You are all so loved. It is time for you to realize that the deck of life is
stacked in your favor.

Akashic Record Reading FAQ’s
An Akashic Records reading, is it for me?
If you are open and willing to make changes in your life, then an Akashic Records
reading is for you. Do not set up a session if you want to know exactly what the
future holds for you. Your future is always changeable based on the laws of
probabilities and the actions you take.
However, if you are ready to move forward and make necessary changes in your life…
then you will have an excellent experience with the Akashic Records reading.
Does this reading have to be done in person?
No, the reading works the same over the telephone as in person. The reason the
readings can be done over the phone is that I’m not reading you, I’m reading the
energy of your Records.
What information do I have to provide during an Akashic Record reading?
The answer is either: a lot, none or somewhere in between. You as the client set
the focus of your session. Your session will be based on your intentions. So, you
can choose to provide background information about yourself or give out none. Your
session will be based on your intentions. You can decide to give nothing at all
about yourself. If you only want to see whatever comes up, your session will
represent the most important things you need to know.
Is it different from a tarot reading?
Akashic Readings operate exclusively at the level of the soul, whereas a tarot
reading does not necessarily do so. This information is coming from your collection
of past lives and experiences in your current life. A tarot reading does not go
into the depth or have the scope of an Akashic Record reading. I have heard it
being compared to having numerous sessions with a therapist in just a 1-hour
reading.
How do you access my records?
I have received training and have been given a sacred prayer that allows me to open
your Records with your permission.
Will I need more than one reading?
That is up to you, and how much you want and are willing to do for yourself, but
each session will be complete in itself. I have found there is so much information
given that it can be hard to process everything in one reading. Additional readings
can be scheduled for more in-depth work.
What kind of questions can I get answered?
You can ask about choices you are facing, the direction of your life,
relationships, career, health, finances, etc.
What if I’m afraid of what the records will tell me?
The Akashic Records exist in a realm of unconditional love, protected by Keepers
and Guides. In that realm, our fears are transformed. Even being in the records
without asking questions, is a healing and loving experience. We have found that
guidance and direction from the records always come in an uplifting and positive
way. Since it is you who is asking the questions, you determine how much to explore
each subject. These readings are very validating on a deep level.
Is my future predetermined?
No, you always have a choice, which is part of the beauty of being here on earth.
We are here to learn through the choices we make. The Akashic Records can help you
see the consequences of a variety of options, and help you choose the ones that fit
best with your soul’s purpose.
What guarantees do you offer?
Throughout the process, you retain full responsibility for the choices and
decisions you make, and the actions you take as a result of the reading.
---------------------------------------------------------------
What Are The Akashic Records?
Holisticism
“The Records are now open.”
Immediately, my body felt different than when I usually parked my butt on my
meditation cushion.
As the room murmured the last line of The Pathway Prayer together — a mantra said
to open the Akashic Records — I felt something shift inside my mind.
My body felt weighted to the floor, but my head felt light, almost as if the top of
it had been opened up, and it was expanding simultaneously in all directions. I
started to see flashes images that I’d never seen before, then I heard words and
phrases in a calmer and deeper version of my voice. Somehow, I knew with every
fiber of my being that what I had just tapped into was not coming from me … even
though the skeptical voice in my head was muttering, “Maybe you’re making this up.”
I had no idea what I was getting into during my first session opening the Akashic
Records — but I walked away from the experience totally changed. It literally felt
like I had been handed the keys to the Universe… and as a person who sometimes
(ahem, often) finds herself lying awake at 3 a.m. with anxiety about the future, I
truly felt at peace.
If you’d asked me what the Akashic Records were just a few weeks before, I would
have given you a strong side-eye — mostly because I’d done a very cursory Google
search on them, which had yielded some low-key weird stuff. [Think: cults,
charlatans, and fake psychics] It wasn’t until I experienced opening the Records
for myself that I finally “got” what the big deal was. And it turned out it was
nothing like what I had found on my hack job Google search.
In this post, we’re going to dig into everything Akashic — the good, the bad, the
curious. Hopefully, we’ll answer all of your questions about this powerful,
intuitive tool, so you feel empowered to go deeper if you’d like. I’ll also talk
about how I use the Akashic Records on a day-to-day basis in my own work, and how
they might be beneficial for you if you chose to start using them.
Ready? Let’s scroll.
what are the akashic records
OK, seemingly basic question. An excellent place to start.
“What are the Akashic Records?”
When you hear the term Akashic Records, what comes to mind? When I first heard it,
my first thought was of a giant filing cabinet of information. Some people think of
the Akashic Records as a library, or a book. Some think of it as a database.
But according to the Records themselves, they are another dimension called the
Akasha. The Akasha is a higher dimension than the dimension we live in.
I know, it’s weird. But stay with me.
In the Akasha, every thought, idea, and action from the past, present, and future
is stored ad infinitum. If you’re familiar with String Theory, the Akashic Records
is basically like a database of what’s happening in all the universes that are co-
existing together.
The Akashic Records are basically a record of what will happen, is happening, or
has happened. Because they are a higher dimension, the rules of time don’t really
apply. Time is a flat circle to the Akashic Records, so information from 2,000
years ago is as accessible as what happened to you yesterday. And what happened to
you yesterday is as available as what could happen to you — if you stay on the same
destiny trajectory — in 10 years.
how experts describe the akashic records
Interestingly, everything has its own Akashic Record. Your soul has an Akashic
Record, your house has an Akashic Record, your dog, even your relationship! You can
open the specific Records of things to ask questions that pertain to them.
Here’s how Edgar Cayce, the psychic medium who popularized the Records, describes
them:
The Akashic Records, or “The Book of Life,” can be equated to the Universe’s super-
computer system. It is this system that acts as the central storehouse of all
information for every individual who has ever lived upon the earth. More than just
a reservoir of events, the Akashic Records contain every deed, word, feeling,
thought, and intent that has ever occurred at any time in the history of the world.
Much more than simply a memory storehouse, however, these Akashic Records are
interactive in that they have a tremendous influence upon our everyday lives, our
relationships, our feelings and belief systems, and the potential realities we draw
toward us … The Akashic Records contain the entire history of every soul since the
dawn of Creation. These records connect each one of us to one another.
Linda Howe, the author of the incredibly informative book, “How to Read The Akashic
Records,” describes them this way:
The Akashic Records offer empowerment and transformation by lending us exactly the
wisdom, guidance, and energetic support that we need in this lifetime. For
centuries, the Records — the energetic archive of Souls’ past, present, and future
possibilities — were the exclusive domain of mystics, saints, and scholars. No
longer! The collective consciousness of the human race has been growing, evolving,
and maturing. This spiritual independence is marked by individuals who know that
they have direct access to their spiritual Source, and who cultivate that sacred
relationship.
do the akashic records exist?
You made it this far, which means you’re still curious about learning more about
the Records. But you’ve probably got some healthy skepticism around them. GOOD! I
like where your head’s at.
the akashic records show us potential outcomes
If you’re anything like me, the concept of The Akashic Records is intriguing.
Honestly, what really got me interested in the Records was the similarities I saw
between String Theory and quantum mechanics and The Records. The Many Worlds
Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics states that there are parallel universes that
exist side-by-side, and for every action, we take there is an infinite number of
universes that co-exist at the same time, right next to us, in which we did NOT
make that action.
You can read more about the Many Worlds Interpretation here, but it relates to the
Akashic Records because they both tell us that there are infinite outcomes for our
actions, but there is an outcome that is *most likely to happen* for every step
that we take. For example, in most universes, if you throw a fork at the wall, it
will hit the wall and fall to the floor. But according to Many Worlds
Interpretation, there might be a universe out there in which you throw a fork at
the wall, and it rebounds right back to you and pokes you in the eye. Or gets
magnetized to the ceiling. Or goes right through the wall. It goes on infinitely.
why are people skeptical about them?
Anyways, people doubt the validity of the Akashic Records for a few reasons. One
reason could be because they ask the Records for an answer about the future, only
to find that it doesn’t come to fruition in the way the Records described.
The thing is, we’re always in control of our own destiny. The Records just tell us
what the most likely outcome is going to be based on the trajectory that we’re
already on. But at any moment, we can decide to forge a new path and redirect our
possible outcomes.
It’s also easy to doubt the Records because it’s WEIRD to hear messages in your
head! You might write off the information that’s coming to you as your own
subconscious thoughts. And you know what, that might be the truth. Honestly, who
knows? You can choose to believe whatever you want.
But either way, by taking the time to tap into the Records, you’re opening yourself
up to a source of knowledge that’s more potent than your conscious mind. Whether
you believe that the information is coming from your highest self, or from the
Akashic Records, is entirely up to you.
are the akashic records real?
So are the Akashic Records real? In my opinion, yes.
what can you ask the akashic records?
The best thing about the Records is that you can use them as a resource whenever
you want answers. Through the Records, we can download information regarding any
imaginable topic and question — as long as the questions are self-focused (if
you’re reading for yourself) and open-ended.
Before we get into why it’s essential to avoid yes or no questions, you need to
learn more about the Recordkeepers. The beings that sort of translate the Akashic
Records into language we can understand are called our Masters, Teachers, and Loved
Ones (MTLOs, for short).
The MTLOs are basically our Spiritual Team. They take our questions to the Records,
and return to us with an answer we can understand.
However, the MTLOs do not suffer fools. They don’t like yes or no questions because
they aren’t fortune tellers — there is never a simple “yes” or “no” answer to most
of our human problems. Your MTLOs love you, and they want to empower you to make
decisions for yourself. They’re kind of like really great mentors: They want you to
learn lessons on your own, but they’re here to guide you on your journey. Sometimes
they deliver information in a way that is almost abrupt — don’t take offense! It’s
just that sometimes our human problems feel very small and silly to them … and they
have a LOT to tell you about IMPORTANT stuff!
The best questions to ask the MTLOs start like:
What?
Why?
How?
It’s helpful to have questions lined up before you open the Records because once
they’re open, there’s a lot of information flowing through you. It’s overwhelming,
and in my experience, you end up getting lost.
Having specific questions helps ground you during your session and keeps you on
track. Plus, it can be hard to remember what actually went down in a session —
you’re sort of channeling, so you might not have the best recall of what transpired
after you close the Records. Writing down the answers to your questions while
you’re in communication with your Records will give you clearer takeaways after
your session.
how to access the akashic records
Before the present day, only very mystical and devout people could tap into the
Akashic Records. But amazing teachers like Linda Howe and Helen Vonderheide are
teaching people like us (mere plebians!) how to open and use the Akashic Records.
linda howe
Linda Howe has written many books on the Records and the predominant modern day
source on how to open them. She’s also created a certification program in which you
can become a Certified Akashic Records Reader. She has a select number of teachers
around the world who can lead certification programs. However, anyone can open the
Records through the Pathway Process Prayer that Linda created — no special
certification needed.
helen vonderheide
Helen Vonderheide is a Master Teacher under Linda Howe, and one of the most
preeminent Certified Akashic Records readers in the United States. She is an
incredible teacher who hosts regular certification programs in Los Angeles. I
learned and became certified as an Akashic Records Reader through Helen, and I just
think she’s the best.
When you’re doing something as freaky as opening up your brain to the Records, it’s
really nice to have an expert like Helen guiding you. As mentioned, it’s not
necessary to become certified to open the Records, but I will tell you that it
certainly helps you become more proficient in the process.
what happens when you open the akashic records?
To open the Records, get in a quiet place with few distractions. Pro-tip: Go to the
bathroom, because if you’re uncomfortable it can be difficult to drop into the
Records.
Once you’re settled, you need to say the Pathway Process Prayer. When you do, you
might feel different than you usually do when you meditate. You might not.
When I open my Records, I feel pressure on the crown of my head, like information
is funneling in at an overwhelming pace.
Sometimes you’ll hear voices, see images, or feel a deep sense of knowing. Other
times, you might need to sit for a while before anything comes through. Everyone is
different, and all people have unique intuitive gifts. If you know that you lean
toward any of the five clairs of clairvoyance, there’s a good chance that’s how
messages from the Records will come through for you.
Once you’ve gotten your bearings, you can start to ask your questions. Be patient —
you might need to rephrase your question if the answer isn’t coming through. Try
not to judge as information flows … sometimes, it really doesn’t make sense. Like,
at all.
One time, I was asking what I needed to do to meet “my person.” Listen, I’m a
Pisces Sun-Pisces Venus, I am almost always looking for love. Anyway, the Records
shot back at me, “Start wearing flowers in your hair.”
I thought that was actually the stupidest thing I’d ever heard. So I asked, “Why?”
And my MTLOs explained that I needed to start taking better care of myself (lol
#dragme) and that I would personally feel happier when I had flowers in my hair,
and that would make me more magnetic to the world around me.
So if something totally ridiculous comes through, or you don’t understand the
message that you get, don’t forget that you can just ask your MTLOs to clarify
themselves. Honestly, that’s just a good life hack. When in doubt, ask for more
clarity.
When you’re done, remember to close your Records.
conclusion
The Akashic Records are a pretty amazing tool that anyone with an open mind can
use. Personally, I’ve opened my own Records to ask about everything from what my
ideal diet is to how much I should charge for freelance copywriting! They’re useful
in so many situations beyond the esoteric.
