How is an Akashic Reading different to a Psychic Reading?

The Akashic Records are a multidimensional field. In traditional esoteric terminology, this would be referred to as the higher spiritual realms (i.e. not the Astral Realm). In the more ‘New Age’ terminology, the Akashic Records are 5D and above.

When you get an Akashic Records Reading, the Akashic Records Reader is going to open up your Akashic Records and channel through the information from your Akashic Records guides.

An Akashic Records Reading is a form of channelling-the information comes from outside of the Akashic Records Reader and is channelled through the reader. The Akashic Records Guides (often referred to as the Masters, Teachers and Loved Ones) help obtain the information from your Akashic Records that they deem relevant to the questions you bring, based on what you are ready to receive. This process involves complete surrender on the part of the Akashic Records Reader to allow the information to come through.

When working with the Akashic Records the practitioner is working with predominantly feminine energy by connecting to the Akasha and the information 'drops into' their heart chakra for transmission. This is then delivered through the structured energy of the throat chakra, which is masculine energy dominant.

It is very often the case, when you work with a psychic/intuitive, that they are accessing information from the Astral Realm (New Age 4D). The psychic/intuitive reader is picking up from this realm, using their ‘clair’ senses. They will also sometimes use divination tools, such as oracle cards or pendulums.

It is important that we understand the difference between the 2; not because one is superior or inferior but because technically they are different.

When you start working with your own Akashic Records, or when you go for an Akashic Records Reading with a practitioner, it is important you bring a range of questions to ask. The questions help your Akashic Records Guides ascertain the information that you need to receive from the Akashic Records at this time.

I often find with my Akashic Records Readings with clients the information provided by the Akashic Records will answer more than one of the questions that the client has. This is completely normal. Not only are our 'issues' often related to each other but the very act of sitting and considering what questions you have will mean that the information you desire is ready to be channelled. Answers to your questions from the Akashic Records can be very long!

Akashic Records Readings are about seeking soul level truth and guidance. It is not about being told what to do-we are looking for guidance and seeking a more objective, 'bigger picture' perspective by using the Akashic Records to zoom out.

Both types of readings (Akashic and Psychic/Intuitive) can help you navigate your life. There is not one better than the other-they are just different.
