Akashic Record Reading
How can an Akashic Recording help you?
It can facilitate spiritual growth and evolution
Akashic Records exploration can assist with your spiritual journey and facilitate personal growth. “The Records are thought to contain not only personal information, but also universal wisdom and insights,” says Rauschenberg. Which is all to say, a reading could broaden your perspective on life or the interconnectedness of all beings, and help you find greater alignment with your spiritual path, she says.
It can enhance self-awareness
Aside from realigning your future, an Akashic Records reading can help you better understand your present reality. “By exploring the Akashic Records, you can gain insights into your past experiences, relationships, and patterns,” says Rauschenberg. Such self-awareness can point you toward a deeper understanding of your strengths and weaknesses, and even your core purpose in life.
It can help you process and heal from past trauma
And much in the way that the Akashic Records can highlight your soul’s current reality, this energetic log can also reveal buried aspects of your past and help you process trauma. “The Akashic Records have the ability to heal on multiple levels—emotionally, mentally, and energetically,” says Rauschenberg. That’s because accessing the Records can help you “identify and learn more about past traumas, limiting beliefs, and unresolved emotions,” she explains, which opens the door for healing.

Overview
Akashic Record Readings are thought of as “an energetic library of information that contains the details of your soul and its journey…They span through past lives, present incarnations, and future possibilities.” To be clear, however, the records do not have a physical manifestation; they exist in an energetic realm that you have to experience, she says.
As for the term “Akashic?” It’s derived from the Sanskrit word Ākāśa, which can refer to the fifth element (or “ether”) in Hinduism or “cosmic space” in Buddhism. In modern interpretations, Ākāśa (or Akasha, transliterated into English) is “considered the subtle, spiritual essence that pervades all of space and is the medium through which all things manifest,” says Rauschenberg. “In the context of the Akashic records, the term ‘Akasha’ is extended to refer to a metaphysical ‘library’ or ‘database’ that contains the energetic imprints of all thoughts, emotions, events, and experiences throughout time.” (WellandGood.com)
The history and origin of the Akashic Records
Akashic Records exploration can be traced back to ancient civilizations. “Hindu philosophy and ancient Egyptian and Greek traditions all had notions of a cosmic or celestial archive,” says Rauschenberg. The concept of the Akashic Records as it’s understood today, however, has its roots in Theosophy, a spiritual and religious movement founded in 1875 by Helena Petrovna Blavatsky and Henry Steel Olcott (and stemming from Buddhism and Indian philosophy) that promotes the interconnectedness of all souls and the ability to seek divine truth through personal enlightenment.
Blavatsky is credited with introducing western audiences to the concept of the Akashic Records, which she claimed to have learned from Tibetan monks, as well as spiritual techniques for accessing the Records (like clairvoyance and psychic abilities) and in so doing, connecting to higher consciousness.
During the early 20th century, the American clairvoyant Edgar Cayce, known as the “Sleeping Prophet,” brought more attention to the Akashic Records. “He claimed that he could access the Akashic Records during trance-like states and used this source for his many psychic readings,” says Rauschenberg. “His work contributed to popularizing the concept in the Western spiritual community.”
