Past lives through the Akashic Records
What is the most critical part of your spiritual journey?
Think about it.
For me, it has always been seeking. Seeking to understand how I can be better, learn continuously, and seek more of myself.
My clients always want to know when “we are going to get to the good part.” Here's what a client recently asked me in a session, "Why haven't I connected to any past lives? Where are we going here?" In other words, are we stuck? When are we going to get to the good part? The exciting part?
But what is the good part?
What is the best part of the spiritual journey? I guess the answer is and will remain subjective. For some, it is intuitive development; for others, it's past lives or wanting to feel Spirit more tangibly. By tangibly, I mean in the same way that empaths, psychics, and mediums connect seemingly at will.
I wonder why is it so difficult for us to be where we are in your journey? Why do we allow our ego to take center stage when we are supposed to be evolving soulfully?
I believe we have to address our fascination with spirituality in general. That's why we are so interested in discovering our past lives-- it's provocative. It allows us to be anywhere but here. And more than that, past lives come off as the exclusive part of spirituality reserved for those evolving, and if we are not in some form of FOMO, we aren't really millennials, are we?
But here's the thing.
Our past lives are not whole, they are not without a flawed existence, but they provide proof of our spiritual nature and of Spirit itself. People who are struggling in their current circumstances and those seeking but don't fully understand their connection to spirituality are actually most likely to experience a past life connection. Often when our lives are in complete turmoil, we have fleeting moments or dreams of another time. It is then that our soul searches deeply inside and forces the past self through images in meditation, deja vu, or other random moments as means of letting you know that this existence is not all there is or all that there has ever been.
This incredible paranormal experience helps you access spirituality and begin to open yourself about the world at large.
But if you are like me. You will have this whole otherworldly experience and almost miss it. My first experience with a past life came as I was struggling to learn to meditate correctly. In the beginning, the thought of meditation always made me sleepy. Perhaps because I was not being intentional enough or saving my new practice for too close to bedtime; But, one night, I clearly remember starting mediation and then deciding to lay down instead of staying upright. Just as I was slipping in the space between being asleep and meditating, I saw myself! Not the me I was used to, but a different me in a place that I had never been in a time that was not my present. I will always remember the familiarity but yet the distance between time and space. Other things and people were familiar too! Soon after the experience, I found myself sharing it with a spiritually gifted colleague of mine, and wouldn't you know that version of myself appeared to her as well - I had connected with a past life!
So, how did I connect to a past life?
Here's what I can share about my experience connecting with my past life and why I believe I grew from the experience:
Connecting with a past life was not my intention. My goal was to learn to shake guided meditation because it left me too vulnerable to negative energy. In finally turning off the sounds of people more enlightened than me, I connected with myself.
Initially, I only shared the experience with a trusted spiritual guide and colleague. Sharing this information as an afterthought in an Akashic Records session, I built upon the knowledge and formed a dialogue with my former self through my guide. This part kept me out of ego and rooted in the purpose of my past life stepping forward.
I was in a spiritual hotspot. I will always believe some part of the experience was activated by me being in a spiritual hot spot and also an environment that, in many ways, was very familiar to the environment and surroundings of the past life I encountered.
I yielded to the guidance I was offered at the time by my guide. And I accepted everything my past life provided me without any fear or doubt that this experience was 100% authentic and happening to me.
Spiritual guidance is not linear.
Spiritual guidance is not linear, nor is spiritual development. But, there is one particular thing that both have in common: fear. When you are fearful of spirituality, you do not advance—the same as when you are resistant and when you are in judgment. Fear not, judge not, resist not are the three guiding principles of the Akashic Records. I teach this all the time. And yet, every other week, I find myself lovingly explaining to some of my clients the reasons why they are not advancing in their walk in spirituality. It's because they have their eyes on some ambiguous reward and not on their actions, effort, triggers, and behaviors.
Spirituality is going inward to connect with the highest version of yourself to shed your ego and connect with higher energies.
The very desire to move forward for some intrinsic desire is an act of ego. More than that, when we connect to Spirit, we must understand what knowledge of a specific thing will do for us. Are we seeking past lives to have an enjoyable, crazy party story about it, or will it present soul-level growth and healing? In the past, what have you done wrong to trigger a memory or circumstance that mirrors your current reality?
Past Life: Gift or a Curse
We all can connect with a former aspect of our selves or past life. The questions that arise are, "what information do our past lives offer? Who is likely to connect to a past life? What part of your past will help you to reconcile your future?"
People who are struggling in their current circumstances or those seeking but do not fully understand their spirituality connection. In these moments, the soul seeks deeply and forces the past self through dreams and remnants of deja vu as a means of letting you know this current existence is not all there is or all that has even been. These connections help you to come to your conclusion about spirituality and can lead you deeper, but often astray when you cannot accept what is present.
Our current dimension and life existence often leave the past remiss and void of well, reality. In our messages from our past, we can realize that the past life is not whole. It is this imperfect nature that is evidence of your spiritual nature and Spirit. No matter what message is offered, we must understand that it is our guides from which we should yearn to seek infinite wisdom, for the Spirit is the bearer of our destiny.
How to heal a past life with guidance from the Akashic Records
Everything starts with emotional clarity. To go back into the past to enter your souls' memory, you have to be clear and expansive. Clarity should be your goal when receiving spiritual guidance anyway. The ego must lessen its hold so that you can separate the current from the past, which is why most past life experiences come in our dreams and are fleeting experiences. It is only in clarity that you can calm the present time's emotions and absorb the feelings and accept the circumstance of your past incarnation.
Accept what Spirit and your Masters, Teachers, and Loved Ones (MTLOs) offer you. Sometimes acceptance is the hardest part, but when we are working with Spirit and our guides, acceptance is critical, especially as you consider intuitive coaching and regular spiritual guidance. Though no one ever said, acceptance needs to come instantly. Take time to process the messages you receive, journal about how it makes you feel. Also, consider points where you do not understand or experience resistance. In doing so, you allow yourself to make space for questions for clarity for future guidance.
Allow your healing to start now. No matter what, we have to open ourselves up and not just receive information from our Spirit Guides and other Light energies. Wherever you are in your guidance journey, and whatever your current focus is, allow yourself to receive support in the process. We do this by leaning on Spirit for all of our circumstances and taking action in gratitude as we receive guidance, blessings, and synchronicity. The more vulnerable we are, the more positive we become, and the more we lean into and initiate growth and healing as we evolve further the former versions of ourselves or our past lives.
Ask questions in guidance that will lead to an empowering conclusion. The problem with the original question of "why haven't I connected with any of my past lives?" is that it assumes that it is something that you are entitled to experience.
If you are genuinely focused on spiritual clarity as it applies to your journey, don't chase paranormal experiences frivolously. Use each personal experience you have to plan actions for growth.
