About this message…

The following is a transcription and audio channeling from the Akashic Records about the Akashic Records.

As my understanding of my soul purpose has shifted and grown, I have felt an increasing desire to share the wisdom of spirit with others through the Akashic Records, which help bring higher consciousness to light, so we can live with more peace, ease and clarity.

Please note, when I open up the Akashic Records and seek higher guidance, the information comes through in a collection of words, metaphors, images, resonance, and guidance. Guidance which is deeply practical, but often presented in surprisingly playful ways (I have found that spirit has a terrific sense of humor). This post is a direct transcription from the records, so please forgive any sentence fragments~ it’s simply how the information came through at the time and sounds a little different than my usual writing voice.

Understanding the Akashic Records

Whenever I open the Akashic Records, I always have an image that comes through that immediately anchors me into the energy of what the records have to share with us at this particular point in time; the imagery is usually light, playful and metaphorical.

The records opened with an image of a group of people in booster seats — as if we are on a rocket or rollercoaster, all lifting up into space and the stars.

When you open the records there is a sense of going upwards energetically —  going up into higher vibrations, accessing higher information from higher realms; there was just this beautiful image of all of us doing that together.

We were in our own seats, on our own little ‘rocket ship in space’ journey, but there was a lot of us lifting up at this time, so that felt very hopeful, optimistic and validating that this information was meant for you.

 

What are the Akashic Records, and what can you tell us to understand the records in a more tangible way?

A way that you might want to think about it is that there is this giant, energetic data system (kind of like a giant energetic computer) that stores the data of all that has transpired — not just on your planet but within the galaxy itself; these records are huge.

This is the master database on all that is transpiring and then also what might come to pass.

What has already happened and what is are a little bit more cemented than what might come to pass, so that still exists in the akasha field — the field of possibilities.

A way that you could think about it is picturing it as a giant computer which stores all the hard drives, all memories, all files and all records. A metaphor came through: when you turn that computer on, you are able to tap into some of this data as appropriate, in order to have a higher understanding of what is happening. The records can be used to understand your individual soul path, they can be used to understand your past lives, your present life and what might come in the future.

There is a vast purpose with the records that I’m seeing here, where they can also be used to access greater information, and they just said “as BethAnne is doing here today in this reading”.

You can tap into something that affects the entire collective — another way they are saying you can think about it is like it is a giant library in the sky; it’s invisible and energetic — again this is a master library that holds every single book ever written, of every deed and of every thought.

What I’m seeing in this library that is really fun and really playful is that some of the shelves have volumes that are again very cemented — these volumes have been written and are waiting to be accessed or waiting for somebody to pull them off the shelf. And then I’m seeing this more playful section. I’m seeing a bright blinking sign that says ‘the future’, (the cemented ones are the past), and what I’m seeing is books that are out on a table and there are pens that are still writing the story; there are things that are still being written.

There is a sense of permeability to the future of the Akashic Records and that is balanced out by a sense of more concrete material from what has already happened. 

And they just said for us specifically, “like what has already happened on your planet and what has happened on the timelines of Earth”.

 

Who is in charge of the records, is there an appointed guardian or keeper of the records?

There is a collective that watches over the Akashic Records, and traditionally this has been called 'The Keepers' — that feels like information that was channeled through long ago about the records, with that vocabulary and term ‘The Keepers’ becoming part of the vernacular records in a way that individuals could understand; they are saying "The Guardians of The Records" — angels and light beings (possibly some ancestors as well) who are Guardians of the Records, and that is also known as The Keepers of the Records. 

What I’m also seeing with the records is like there are tiers, like a layer cake — there is an overall stratosphere of a larger collective of Keepers. Based on the different sections in the library, there might be different groups, different collectives - smaller ones guarding over that.

I’m seeing here clusters of librarians — there’s the librarians who, when you walk into this library, they are the ones at the desk. And then you go through security, and then there are ones whom you check in with (they are kind of like the gateway you cross through) and they are the ones who you check out with as well. As you are wandering through this giant library there might be smaller desks, and individuals there to whom you say “I’m lost, I’m trying to find the Science section” and they say “that way!” or something like that.

And then the last piece that I am seeing is when somebody would pull a book out of the library, it would be authored and published by somebody; there would be a small cluster of people who might be behind that particular book, and that feels very personal to me.

So when we are talking about some of the greater records versus the records that might be more individual to you, part of what comes through with that is that each of you has members of your team who help you — members of your guides and teams who might help you access your own Akashic Records or somebody who is reading for you, who might appear and help you open records specifically to you.

The answer is multidimensional in the sense that there are the many, then smaller clusters based on what somebody is trying to access.

Again, this feels like collective energy — not just one — this feels like various angels and various light beings all working together to keep the records running, keep them in a protected space and keep the energetic vibration where it needs to be for that.

Where are the records stored, and who has access to them?

The records themselves are multidimensional — I actually heard the word “everywhere”.

I had a very quick conversation with them where I said “that doesn’t make any sense, can you give it to us in different terms?” and what I’m seeing is this beautiful analogy that they are giving us; they are pointing me to the archangels, and when the archangels work with people they have the ability to be everywhere all at the same time — this is something that can be very foreign to the human mind and hard for human beings to understand this, based on our limited perception of self and based on our experiences of self where we can’t be everywhere at once. Some of us probably wish that we could be in multiple places!

There’s this acknowledgement that this is a hard concept to understand, but I’m seeing Archangel Michael coming through, and Archangel Michael is saying “pretend there are a million clones of me and all those clones are also me — and we are also doing everything at the same time supporting all these people”.

There is a sense of not just multidimensionality about them, but interdimensionally — they are between dimensions and able to cross through everything, so there is a sense of the records being stored in a more multidimensional sense.

It’s more about accessing the energetic vibration of it, just as you might access the energetic vibration of an archangel — you might have an archangel that is close to you and supporting you and you might not know that, but if you are actively seeking to work with the archangels, you might start to be able to access that energy, that frequency, in which case that would allow you to step into the presence of that archangel more fully.

That is what I’m feeling with the records - they are kept at a very high energetic vibration, there is a sense they are multidimensional and they are accessed through concentrating your energy there.  

That leads me to the second part of this question - who can access them?

Everybody!

Some of you will feel called to access the records in a deeper way as part of your soul calling, as part of your purpose and how you are called to serve in this world. And they are saying right now “how BethAnne is doing in this reading”; a reading done for the greater collective and for the individuals who listen to it, as opposed to a personal records reading. 

Some of you may feel called to that path — and many of you are on that path; some of you are already working with the records and are familiar with them.

This is what they are showing me with humanity in general — but what they want you to know is that each of you have the right to access your individual records, and what I’m seeing with that is when you are coming at it with purity of intent, with an open heart and genuinely wanting to know the information in there, coming from a place of being willing to receive (as opposed to trying to force the information that’s in there) —

When you come at it with that open heart, there’s a sense that everybody has access to the records — it is your divine birthright to feel empowered and to feel equipped to access your records.

The Akashic Records really are for everybody. I’m going to ask a question that was not written down (out of my own curiosity here!) that kind of segues into what we are talking about—

What are the limitations around accessing the records? What can you help us see?

What I’m seeing is a poison sticker — the stickers with the skull and crossbones; I’m seeing that the biggest limitations to the records is somebody coming in, for lack of a better description: with a toxic intention. Somebody who is coming in with the intention for using the information for ill perhaps — or using the information to further themselves, perhaps for their own agenda; they are giving a good example here of trying to access somebody else’s records that you don’t have permission to.

I’m definitely seeing a big stop sign — ‘turn back, you’re not going to be allowed access to that.’ There is a sense around this that if you are not coming from a place of purity of intent, there is sort of a qualifier here — what they mean by that is that they’re not saying your heart has to be perfect or saying you have to be perfect, they are just saying when you need to go in it needs to be really for ‘I want what is to come through for the highest good’. If you aren’t coming at it from that place, there is a sense that the records are not going to be accessible.

They just clarified this for me: because they are not going to be vibrating at the right resonance to access the records. The records are really kept at a high vibrational frequency — we might describe that frequency as love or the energy of love. So if somebody is not in the energy of love and they are not going into the records for a loving reason — that right there would be a limitation. I saw a sign saying ‘library closed’ — they’d walk up to the library door and they wouldn’t even get through. It would say ‘library closed’ and they’d be turned away or they’d be lost and having a hard time finding the library.

The other piece that came through was that they said “there are just some things you aren’t meant to know” and I’m being prompted to share in this message that as a channel, there are times where I’m opening the records and asking information for the greater collective — for the greater good — and every now and then I will be told by The Keepers that day, who are bringing the information through to me, “that is all you need to know right now” or sometimes they will just go silent and I have learned that, to me, that means I’m not meant to know at this point in time, it might not be mine to know or there might be a reason I’m not being told it. So there is a sense that there are just some things we aren’t meant to know, so that can be a limitation as well.

Bringing it back to what they’ve told me — they do want you to feel equipped and empowered that you have the right to access your own records. You have the right to begin to work with that energy as you feel called.

 

How is our intuition connected to the Akashic Records?

Part of how the Akashic Records are accessed is through your intuitive knowing; it is through sensory experiences that are linked to your understanding of your intuition, such as seeing images, perceiving, sensing or feeling things.

The records are not linear in a way that your ‘thinking brain’ (your brain that is used to analyzing) is going to be able to grab on to — it’s just that it is a different vibration.

So that part of the brain that overthinks and tries to interpret or makes sense — the minute it begins to collect data, what I’m feeling is that part doesn’t really work well with the records. Not when you are going in.

So, what I’m seeing is this really strong link to our intuitive self and our receptivity. When we are in our intuitive self, we are allowing for our intuitive sensing; listening to what our body might tell us, what we might feel or what we might perceive, what might flash through our mind — there is a sense that this is what allows for receptivity and the Akashic Records are really about receiving.

They are less about interpreting in the moment and more about being open to receiving the information that comes through.

So, what I’m feeling with that is that anything that you do, anything that anybody does to validate their intuitive sensing and to understand how their intuition works serves them in working with the records, because the information comes through in a non-linear, intuitive sense, that is based on experiences and visualization — it’s based on just knowing something, based on a little bit of instinct; don’t overthink it, just go with your gut, blurt out what is coming to you.

All of that feels very connected to the intuitive self and that is really the part of you which is more easily able to access the records; and they just pointed out to me - “your intuitive self is strongly connected to your heart”.

Since the Akashic Records are kept at the vibration of love, when you are in your heart, you are accessing that intuitive self, so it’s easier to be able to get into the records.

They just said “you can’t think your way into the records''; they are giving me a really funny example— who hasn’t seen that cartoon where somebody is there thinking “if I think hard enough this Kleenex box will move across the room” and there’s sort of this one which flies around in spiritual circles from time to time of “who doesn’t want to have that superpower of teleportation or telekinesis” — whatever it is when you can make objects fly with your mind. And they are saying this isn’t that at all.

This is about relaxing into your heart, praying through your heart and allowing your intuition to pour through your hearts and understanding the information that way. It is a slightly different language in that sense, and they are saying that each of you are still equipped to be able to learn, to speak and to work with your own records.

 

Are there ways we can practice enhancing our intuition so that we can work with the records more effectively?

They said “so many ways!” and the next thing I saw was of this image of opening a door to the junk closet that you forgot is there, and you just keep throwing stuff in it and throwing stuff in it — it is getting so full that you barely open the door and you throw stuff in it and slam it because you know all of it is going to come flying out at you — I just saw that door opening and everything comes flying out. That was a funny metaphor.

There are just so many different ways that you can practice that intuition development.

They are saying “many of you have systems in plac— those are fine, those are beautiful — feel empowered to use those systems.” Some of you are just getting going with this so they are saying “anything that you feel drawn to”. Reading about developing your intuition is going to be helpful.

Can you give us one specific practice today that all of us can take with us - one we can use to keep opening our intuition and better understand the records?

This is so beautiful and very simple - they are showing me you sitting down in your spiritual time or journaling time.

{note: it’s coming through the way I do it but you can do this in your own way.}

With your hand on your heart, you're cross-legged, on the ground, allowing yourself to be open — allow yourself to open up to the wisdom.

And I’m seeing each of us setting the intention of entering the Akashic Records, and really focusing on the Akashic Records; there are certain prayers sometimes that are recommended to open them but I’m not even feeling a big prayer for us, I’m feeling a simple “dear spirit, dear guides, please support me” and just stepping up to the hallway of the records. We are stepping up to the entrance to that library door, just asking to step through.

If you are new to this and never done this before, it might feel a bit overwhelming and really big, so think of it this way: this is a practice they are giving us; allowing us to walk up to the steps of the library, opening the door and stepping into the door. I’m seeing as you are walking up these steps — that is you sitting on the ground, hand on heart, open heart — being relaxed in some sort of meditative state of place for you.

And then I’m seeing the opening of the door — this is you saying “spirit guides, I’m here for the highest good, I want my highest good and I want to understand how my records feel … help me sense them, help me feel them, help me understand what it feels like to open my Akashic Records”.

I’m seeing you sitting with that intent and putting it out there for as much as you need to. And then, what I’m seeing is as you step through that door, you pay attention to what comes through.

How do the records feel to you? Do you notice anything? Do you get a visual image? Do you feel anything in your body, does your heart feel more open?

That is a really good exercise they are giving us to begin to develop your intuition and work with your intuition that also supports you feeling equipped to feel like you can begin to walk through that door, and step into your Akashic Records - so you are going to walk up the stairs as you sit down in your meditation time and get grounded and get into your heart.

You're going to open the library door by saying a prayer — I’m hearing it just needs to be sincere, with love and asking your guides to help and support you, asking if you can gain entrance to your records. Then you are going to step through that door and take a look around — pay attention to anything you sense; I’m feeling this is a very good practice that you can do.

Don’t expect the first time you’ll get something but also don’t expect that you won’t. There is sort of this sense of ‘release the expectation’ — keep coming back to this exercise and keep trying again and again. I’m feeling that maybe one day you’ll see stars in your mind's eye - stars everywhere — and you write that down and you say “well, that felt good”.

They are saying “whatever comes through, always say thank you” and “may I use this information in love.” just to close that circle, and close the energy.

I’m seeing the next day you have a sense of a library because you listened to this channeling, and this time it is coming through as a library in your mind. And then I’m seeing the next time you go in: the image shifts or you feel something in your heart, and I’m seeing you making a note in your journal of ‘how did it feel this time?’; learning to anchor in that energy in you and feeling empowered to go into that energy.

That’s a beautiful practice that each of you can do!

 

Are there blocks that keep us from understanding the records, and if so, how can we overcome them?

As always, the biggest block is ourselves. We are almost always our own limitation.

I get that answer from them a lot — I’m seeing the biggest block isn’t willingness — for anybody who is really seeking with an open heart — it is not closed off to you.

If you are seeking with an open heart, no matter how intuitive you think you are or you aren’t — this isn’t about having to be a certain something on a spiritual path; they are saying “that’s a preconceived notion that humans have kind of put to this — to separate out people who can do this and who can’t”.

It really is an open heart and a willingness to learn this information; they are saying it is really like “a new language”.

And that’s really the biggest block — just not knowing the language. It’s not knowing how the information might come through. It’s not being familiar with what might come through — that’s the hardest piece for people; they are showing me that you might have an experience in the records and then you question your experience — you question your mind —  you question and you doubt yourself because you aren’t used to working with these frequencies and you might not be used to working with your intuition in this kind of manner.

So that is really the biggest block — I’m getting again is that the best way to overcome this is practice.

They are kind of saying “this is like anything else”, it’s something you can build. They are showing me someone that is just starting to swim — when they first get in the water they don’t know how to swim!

So they have to start taking swimming lessons, maybe they have floaties and a kickboard and they are really scared. As they continue to practice swimming, the floaties can come off, and the kickboard can be put down. They may be able to swim a lap or something like that — I’m seeing somebody build from a baby beginner swimmer to a more equipped swimmer who is now really in flow and really knows what they are doing — the water is no longer scary, it is very joyful.

There’s a very practical piece here. Practice! If you want to learn this, find practices around it. Allow yourself the opportunity to grow, allow yourself the opportunity to be a beginner, allow yourself the opportunity to have a beginner’s mind and allow yourself the opportunity not to know, to question.

Then there is the sense of ‘this is the beauty of it’ - if you stay with it, you get to begin to see what comes through. And you will notice you’ll start to gain traction and when you gain more confidence, you’ll notice that as you do that ‘stepping through the library door’ exercise, you’ll feel a real shift inside of yourself because you are practicing and you can feel it in your body.

You will notice that more images might open up, or you might notice that now you are feeling empowered to ask a few questions about your life. And because you’ve practiced walking through the library door, and you understand how your intuition and your guides bring the messages through, you ask these questions and more messages come through, across your intuitive line and the way that your intuition understands.

Those are the things that you can build up to, so it’s really about practicing and giving yourself a chance - they are saying “some of you might not even give yourself the chance to sink or swim” as you think you can’t do it. But give yourself the chance to learn to swim. You might be surprised by what comes from it.

 

With all the change going on in our world, what do we need to know about the records in the year 2020 and beyond? How do they apply to us right now in this time in our life?

On a bigger scale, there is information in the records that can help support humanity in navigating these times right now. That question took a little bit for me to get because they didn’t quite understand my meaning, so they are giving me two meanings here. They were like “BethAnne, that question is too broad!”.

I’m seeing that there is information in the records that collectively can be accessed and brought down (or brought on) to your sphere — in order to give humanity some helpful information at this point in time.

That feels like something that will be more and more relevant for us —

They are saying “more and more relevant for your world because many of you are seeking answers from the beyond and seeking perspective that’s beyond yourself - you are seeking more tangible ways to get that perspective in”.

That’s kind of the bigger picture piece, but the second piece here is individually, moving forward from 2020 and beyond, how are they individually relevant right now?

There is such a mass spiritual awakening going on at this point in time; more and more people are waking up. For some of you, this is a willing awakening - and whether or not you are new to this, or you’ve been at it for a long time - they are saying “some of you are bright eyed and bushy tailed, and there are many others on your planet at this time who are going through a forced awakening who might not be embracing it”.

But what I’m seeing with this mass spiritual awakening going on is a growing interest in intuitive gifts, a growing interest in spiritual knowledge, a growing interest in making a paradigm shift, and they are saying “where some of these things have been relegated to circles that humans might describe as new age or spirituality, some of them are meant to become a little bit more mainstream” — and what I’m feeling with that, is that this is a slow shift; this isn’t something that is going to happen all at once.

But what I am feeling with it is that some of the things that have been pushed to the fringes where only the fringe-people have been doing them and being the wayshowers, I’m seeing some of that wanting to come to a little bit more of the center stream.

This feels tied in with the idea that this is your birthright to be in the records, it’s your birthright to be able to access your records and walk through that library door and see what wisdom is in there for you, and to learn how to do that.

There is a sense that this isn’t meant to be for the few, but it’s meant to be for the many — for those of you who have an open heart and who are seeking a deeper spiritual connection; those of you who really want that for your life.

Is there anything you want us to know today on the records or on our intuition?

“Have fun with it and make it a game” is what comes through.

So, what I’m seeing is that there’s a tendency in human beings to take things very very seriously - especially when it comes to spirituality, there is still a lot of fear there, a lot of disempowerment that has happened.

They are saying “so many of you say all the time that I’m not so spiritual, or I’m just beginning” and there is a lack of ownership about your true nature which is a spiritual being; you are already being spiritual, it’s more that you are now bringing in practices and bringing in awareness, recognizing your truth as a spiritual being.

And so, a part of this is a sense of: could this be fun for you? Could this be playful for you? Or like a game of “yay, I get to try and open my records today - I’m going to try that open through the library door practice that was shared in the channeling and see what comes though, and then I’m just going to write down my perceptions and just allow myself to rift off of that”.

I’m just seeing this sense of playfulness with it. Not taking it as seriously and coming at it lightly. And what they are saying with that is that lightly doesn’t mean cavalierly, carelessly or callously - more of a sense of “yay, I get to go into my heart and practice this thing, and I get to have this concrete way that I can really invite spirit into my life in bigger ways and empower myself”.

I’m seeing a sense of having fun with it and they are giving me something that has often been given to me throughout the years, working with the records: I’m feeling like I need to turn around and this medicine they gave me, I’m going to turn round and give this medicine to you. What I’m feeling is ‘let go of the attachment to be right or wrong’.

They want you to know you aren’t meant to go into this feeling like you have to be right. That’s an expectation you’ve already attached - can you feel how much pressure that is? “I have to be right, I have to get this right” puts so much pressure on you to be right or to feel like you must be a fortune teller or an oracle or something like that; what I’m feeling from them is “can you try and throw that out?”

See it as something joyful you get to experience and something joyful you are going to practice learning, with curiosity, a sense of discovery, a sense of deepening your intuition around the records and if you can let go of the idea of being right or wrong and develop a practice out of it — see what happens; experience is what gives you confidence and experience is what gives you discernment. If you can do that, then it becomes fun, and then it becomes joyful.

And the other piece I’m feeling is that as the records are kept at vibrations of love, joy and bliss - if you can bring that attitude in, it helps you relax and makes it easier to access the information in the first place, because you are coming at it from a space of love and lightness, and not “this is heavy spiritual work I must do” - that feels like it’s going to block you. That’s what they want us to know.
