What are the Akashic Records and why would we want to remember past lives

The Akashic Records are the ethereal records of all events, lives, actions, feelings and experiences that have ever occurred since the beginning of time, and it may even contain the possibilities if what will occur.

There are versions of these records mentioned in most religions and spiritual belief systems. In Christianity they are called the Book of Life (“In the last days these books shall be opened.”). In the Tibetan tradition there are the Etheric Records and in Jewish beliefs the Book of Remembrance.

I believe that our souls reincarnate as a way to expand the consciousness of our Source/God/Universal Consciousness that we are all a part of. I believe God experiences through us and our different incarnations.

We forget most of our other lifetimes when we are born into this life. We are probably meant to mostly forget because if we remembered everything it would possibly interfere with the new life experience we are having, especially if we are not ready for that information.

Each life is meant to feel new. However, our higher selves still remember everything and uses the memories and wisdom from all of our lives to guide us in this life. These memories are also stored in our subconscious and we have access to them.

Because we are all one in true Reality, I do not think it is as simple as one soul reincarnating in specific lifetimes, although I believe our soul's blueprint relate more to certain lives than others.

In my view, we move in soul groups and several different individuals may be able to tap into the same historical lifetime. It is bigger than just one isolated soul's journey, which can easily be used as an ego tool to make ourselves special in relation to others. When we tap into universal consciousness, we expand our view and we are then able to tap into more than we expected.

Even so, I really do believe we see actual historical lifetimes when we experience a past life regression and for those of us who are really interested in history, this is a gold mine of knowledge.

So why would we want to access these memories now? I think many of us are open and ready to receive some of this information about our soul’s many lives, to open our book of life, to expand our view of who we are and to realise our oneness with everyone and everything. It moves us beyond our limited perception of ourselves and opens us to a new way of looking at life.

If you are one of those who is ready for this I invite you to book a Past Life Regression Hypnotherapy session with me. Click here for more information and to book sessions.
