I went to the Empowered Light Holistic Convention Friday night after work. While I was there I had two different readings done. The first one was an Akashic Records reading. For those who don’t know, the Akashic Records is kind of like a Library of Congress, but for the history of our souls. It keeps track of everything that our souls have done in our previous and current lives. For this particular reading, the medium reaches out to various spirits and guides to obtain information from the records to answer questions that I might have.
I have always had a deep affinity for music. Music speaks to me in a way that nothing else can. I’ve suspected that this deep connection came from a previous life and the deeper I get into this spiritual journey I am on, the more questions I have about how the dots connect. Though I try to keep an open mind about different things, I have to admit that I was pretty skeptical of this reading because instead of the medium coming to me with information, I had to ask questions to which he would provide answers. I felt like it was an easier situation for him to take control and feed me information based on having a seed to start with. Much to my surprise, as the reading unfolded he also ended up coming to me with information which was pretty spot-on (which I did not supply).
To get things started, I told him that I was curious about my previous lives and if he saw anything in them related to music? He closed his eyes. After a few seconds, he opened his eyes and they were alive with passion and excitement. He said that music has been with me in every single lifetime, since the dawn of time. Specifically, he said that I have had a very symphonic past with music. My past music-professional lives take me to England, even more specifically London where I’ve both conducted and played in a symphony. He said I have a tribal history which involved chanting and drums as well. For the lifetimes that do not have a professional connection, my hobbies have included music. He told me that I have a very deep connection with music. Everything from feeling the music, to the sounds and the lyrics. Which this is all true.
The reading shifted topic when he got a little teary-eyed and told me that I finished paying off my karmic dues in the beginning of this lifetime. I wasn’t really expecting to hear that, but after having some time to reflect on it, it could help explain why I chose to come into this life as the daughter of an abusive mother.
He then caught me off guard when he asked me if I’m a teacher. I said no. He asked if I was considering teaching. There is a project that I’m in the works on with a friend that would involve a teacher-like role. He said that teaching is something that is in me as well. He said teaching, inspiring others and there was a third thing he kept mentioning that he said worked together like a triangle. Which ironically enough, connected to this project that I’m working on. I gave him a vague description of the project and he became very passionate again and insisted that I have to do this.
In the time that has passed since the reading, I’ve been able to further reflect on the teacher role and some other connections have come to mind. Sometime between 7-10th grade, l I taught a workshop with my best friend. I was so scared to do it, but it ended up being something that has held this small part of my heart over the years. When I started college the first time, I was convinced I was going to be a Math Teacher (until Pre-Calculus kicked my ass). It’s just interesting to be able to make these connections to something that he brought into the reading that was not initiated by me.
I asked him if he saw anything about writing. He asked me if I’ve been having a hard time writing, which lately I have been. I told him that when I’m journaling the words flow out of me, but when I’m writing with the knowledge that it will be public, I run into writer’s block. What he said next touched me on such a deep level. He said that I’m not having blocks I’m having resistance. I’m resistant to write what I want to because I’m afraid of judgement from others, but he said that I need to write. He said that the way that music speaks to me on that deep level is the way that my writing will affect others. He said that the reason that I’m resisting is because there is something there that needs to be shared. Things that I have lived through that I can share with others. Then he made the connection to the triangle again. By me sharing, I’d be teaching and inspiring others.
At that point, I confessed to him that I have a private blog which I have been writing for the last two years, and how I’ve been considering making public but have been very hesitant to do so. He told me that I need to share it. He said that there will always be people out there that like and don’t like the things we do, but that in general the people that will be reading it, will be reading it because they will be interested in the topic. He told me I need to get out of my head and just write.
He also said that he sees writing as a foundation for me. Meaning if the plans for this project come to fruition, there would be a lot of writing involved in that – which again, is very true.
So for something that I felt pretty skeptical towards, it ended up being a pretty amazing experience. Even if he were leading me in any way during this reading, it still had a wonderful outcome. At the end, he felt the need to give me a hug because he was so excited about my reading. He made me excited about things too.
