In Part Two of the Exploring Your Akashic Records, Past Lives and Future Destiny webinar with Kala Ambrose and Sandy Anastasi, we discussed how past lives carry through into the present with their karmic imprints.

Some spiritual teachers and intuitives are able to see these Akashic Records in the manner in which they are attached to each person in their aura and energy fields. The records explain “who you are” and “why you are here” in this lifetime. They define the challenges you are facing, the relationships you engage in and the primary motivations and desires that you are attracted to on the mind, body and spirit levels.

In the spiritual realms where the higher self resides, a record of every thought, action, word and deed is recorded for each soul. Referred to as the Akashic Records, these vibrational energy imprints remain attached to the soul through each lifetime. These imprints shape each soul’s destiny, karma and life purpose.

A sampling of what was discussed in Part Two can be seen here:

Part Three begins this Thursday, as Kala and Sandy discuss 2012 as one of the markers of the evolutionary change we are experiencing as we are moving into the fourth dimension. Instead of living at only one point in time in the third dimension, we are now shifting into the fourth dimension where we can connect with our higher self and experience all points of time, connecting our past, present and future selves into a simultaneous consciousness. We are swiftly moving through this into the fifth dimension where we are creating multiple time lines, in a sense creating a greater number of life experiences within one lifetime.

We are swiftly moving through this into the fifth dimension where we are creating multiple time lines, in a sense creating a greater number of life experiences within one lifetime.

In this shift of conscious awakening and awareness, we are connecting past, present and future lives together and working through all of the karma from previous lives, while understanding how this defines our lives in the present tense. Our ability to process these lifetimes allow us to shift into the new dimensions of being.

We are not alone in this process. Our spirit guides have been working with us in one of the most importantly evolutionary shifts in our consciousness on the earth plane. When we can can understand what is occurring to us on a body, mind and spirit level as well as learn how to connect and communicate with our spirit guides, we can accelerate the process in a state of grace and well-being.

According to Sandy… This time that we are living in is crucial to both mankind’s evolution and the evolution of the planet we call home – the Earth itself. Sandy’s personal Guided messages and research into the writings of many author’s including Alice Bailey, Jane Roberts, Edgar Cayce, Bruce Lipton, Brian Cox, Ester and Jerry Hicks, and C.W. Leadbeater, to name just a few, has led her to the understanding that multiple root-races have come together NOW on our living planet for the purpose of choosing consciously to move to a new vibratory level. The Earth is awakening to her destiny as a Sacred Planet, and as each of us awakens to our own individual higher potentials we are contributing to the overall shift in consciousness of the Earth and every being that calls her home. Sandy’s paramount message is to accentuate the importance of conscious personal choice as we individually and collectively move forward along our evolutionary path. We are collectively in the process of opening and developing both our own heart chakra, and that of the Earth itself. We are living in an exciting time in which we are helping to bring a New Age and a New Soul Consciousness into being.

According to Kala… Over the past decade, what she has been seeing in the auric fields is changing dramatically. She reports that our auras are actually evolving! They are creating new energy bodies around the physical body, connecting in new patterns and forming crystalline structures to enhance our conscious evolution, including our connectivity to each other, the world, and higher planes of existence. These structures are creating powerful crystalline receivers, which allow psychic abilities to be enhanced and provide regenerative energetic force fields to heal energy from within at the cellular level. Kala shares that we are truly evolving into super-powered human beings and it’s happening first in the aura.

About Sandy Anastasi
Like many who realize their psychic gifts later in life, Sandy Anastasi awakened to her abilities in her late 20’s. She understood that many people develop deep psychological problems because their psychic abilities are misunderstood and often blocked. These insights and an inner need to pass on her knowledge and abilities led her to begin teaching others to develop their own psychic gifts. She believes that if you are psychic, you MUST use your gifts, or at least learn to control them, or they will use you! Sandy has many psychic gifts, but she believes her greatest to be the ability to identify and emulate the gifts of others. Because of that she is uniquely suited to teach people to open and develop those very gifts in themselves. She developed The Anastasi System of Psychic Development which has given many well-known professional psychics their start, and has helped thousands of people to understand and develop their psychic abilities.Sandy has been a professional psychic and astrologer since 1979. She holds a B.S. degree from Adelphi University and has teaching certifications in several fields. Sandy has worked as a Safety Engineer, and owned her own metaphysical book store for many years before retiring to become a full time psychic counselor, writer and teacher. Sandy’s writings include books on astrology, Kabbala, and tarot, as well as psychic development. Sandy has also appeared on many radio and television shows over the years, most notably Crossing Over and Cross Country – both television shows hosted by her good friend and former student, John Edward. She currently lives in Florida with her husband and four dogs.

LISTEN TO THE INTERVIEW WITH KALA AND SANDY AS THEY DISCUSS THE UPCOMING WEBINAR

ON EXPLORE YOUR SPIRIT WITH KALA RADIO

It is being said that we are living in the land of almost “Instant Karma”, where our thoughts, words, actions and deeds are put out into the world and reflect back almost instantaneously to us. This offers tremendous potential power to achieve our greatest dreams while also serving as a reminder that what we send out to the world magnifies and surrounds us.

Many times in life, the events occurring around us can feel confusing as it’s not clear at the time why things are unfolding as they are. In these circumstances, it’s helpful to understand how our past lives can carry over karmic debts that are still being played out in this lifetime. When we have a better understanding of how this system of karma and the akashic records work, we have the tools to clear out old energy and resolve these situations and then move forward to engage with our future destiny. It also allows us to better understand the reasons we chose to come back in this lifetime along with the people we interact with on a daily basis.

In my work as a wisdom teacher, I teach around the country and write books on these subjects, including 9 Life Altering Lessons: Secrets of the Mystery Schools Unveiled and The Awakened Aura: Experiencing the Evolution of Your Energy Body. In May 2011, I began sharing this information about the Aura on the John Edward Infinite Quest show. As I interacted with people on the show, I explained to them what I was seeing in the auric fields and how symbols from the akashic records and past lives can be seen in the aura. Many of my appearances on the show can now be viewed on video, which can be seen here on the Explore Your Spirit TV pages.

During this time, as Fate and Destiny willed it to be, I met Sandy Anastasi, the internationally acclaimed psychic channel who teaches astrology, kabbala, tarot and psychic development. Sandy has appeared on radio and television with her own show on Infinite Quest and many appearances on the Crossing Over and Cross Country shows with John Edward, who is her good friend and her former student. Sandy’s gifts as a psychic and empath have helped people all over the world. I had the great pleasure to be on Sandy’s show on the Infinite Quest program and to have Sandy as a guest on the Explore Your Spirit with Kala Show.   During this time as we spoke with each other, we re-connected at the soul level. I say re-connected, because it quickly became apparent that we’ve known each other from other lifetimes and have worked and taught together before.  One of the greatest joys in life is when we reconnect with someone whom we’ve spent time with many lifetimes before as the reunion is deeply experienced joyfully at the soul level.

The Akashic Book holds all of the records from your lifetime

It is with great joy to announce that Sandy and I will be teaching a three week online webinar series together where we are going to Explore Past Lives, the Akashic Records and Future Destiny. Sandy and I are joining forces again to teach as wisdom teachers as we once did in the ancient cultures of Egypt, Greece and others. We’ll be tapping in to the Wisdom of the Oracles and the Divine Nature of the Priestesses as we share the ancient wisdom teachings and how they play a part in your life today.

Join us in August for this very unique and special event which has been shared over lifetimes and is being brought back once again. Now with 21st century technology, we are able to share this event LIVE with you via video webinar as you will see Sandy and I teach together and answer your questions in real time.

Exploring Your Akashic Records, Past Lives, and what the Future Holds For You is a next step for all of us on this journey. Here’s what we’ll be covering in this series:

Session 1 – Sandy and I will bring you a greater understanding of your Akashic Records (what Carl Jung called the ‘Universal Mind’ and quantum physicists call the universal field theory) and the laws of karma (action/reaction), and we will present techniques to connect and communicate with your Spirit Guides and give you insight regarding what you may expect of that guidance.

Session 2 – We will focus on identifying past life connections and what karmic and past life actions are active in your present life and on being able to see and discern what changes are in store for you on a mind, body and spirit level as you move through life. The focus here is to learn to become a conscious creator in your own life!

Session 3 – How to increase the level of electromagnetic white light around you to bring comfort and balance during this evolution and how to raise your vibrational energy to protect yourself during these turbulent times in order to handle the transformations in your world as we make the shift through 2012. Discover what the future has in store for you!

Join us in this one of a kind live webinar as we Explore the Past, Present and Future and answer your questions of Who You Are at the soul level and Why You Are Here!

The Akashic Hall of Records holds all of the records of your thoughts, words, actions and deeds from each lifetime.

In the spiritual realms where the higher self resides, a record of every thought, action, word and deed is recorded for each soul. Referred to as the Akashic Records, these vibrational energy imprints remain attached to the soul through each lifetime. These imprints shape each soul’s destiny, karma and life purpose.

Psychics are able to see these Akashic Records in the manner in which they are attached to each person in their aura and energy fields. The records explain “who you are” and “why you are here” in this lifetime. They define the challenges you are facing, the relationships you engage in and the primary motivations and desires that you are attracted to on the mind, body and spirit levels.

2012 is one of the markers of the evolutionary change we are experiencing as we are moving into the fourth dimension. Instead of living at only one point in time in the third dimension, we are now shifting into the fourth dimension where we can connect with our higher self and experience all points of time, connecting our past, present and future selves into a simultaneous consciousness. We are swiftly moving through this into the fifth dimension where we are creating multiple time lines, in a sense creating a greater number of life experiences within one lifetime.

In this shift of conscious awakening and awareness, we are connecting past, present and future lives together and working through all of the karma from previous lives, while understanding how this defines our lives in the present tense.

Author Randy Rogers

This week on Explore Your Spirit with Kala Radio, my guest is Randy Rogers, the president of Telefilm, Inc., a Los Angeles based production company. His career spans four decades of working in the newspaper, television and motion picture business. During that time, he has covered every type of major news event from George McGovern’s 1972 election bid to the Exxon Valdez Oil Spill in 1989. His company, Telefilm, has handled the promotion of the world’s biggest motion pictures including The Matrix, Harry Potter, Pearl Harbor, Batman, Superman, Shrek, Toy Story, Iron Man and Indiana Jones.

In just about everyone’s life, there comes a time when they may question their reason for existing. For Randy that journey began on a day in June of 1995, shortly after he had moved into his new home. A feeling swept over him that an old friend from grade school, Kathy Lynch, had passed away. He had not seen Kathy since 1973 but now he couldn’t get her, or the feeling that she was gone from this world, out of his mind. His former news background was one of many forces pushing him in an intense search to find what became of her. His investigation quickly turns into an obsession, driven by dreams and a pattern of synchronistic events. Along the way, he’lI find that he, Kathy, and a mysterious author named L.W. Rogers, are somehow all linked together in the past. The pieces of a larger puzzle begin to emerge and prophecies he’s foretold are revealed to be the truth as he uncovers a story about past lives, present circumstances and reincarnation.

Through a series of acupuncture induced regression sessions, his life follows a metaphysical journey along a cryptic path that has him, at times, questioning his own sanity. The emotional ride that develops threatens to tear apart everything he had worked so hard to accomplish. The only thing sustaining him is my undying belief that events will occur to prove he is on the right course.

Book: The Keys of LIfe with Randy Rogers

This is a true story, about who we are, why we are here and how we are all connected. That connection is meticulously documented as you follow his quest for the truth and then proven in an ending, that is really only the beginning, in Randy’s book,  The Key Of Life.

Since the seventies, past life regression has been widely practiced and many books – some  impressive and well-documented – have been published on this subject.  It is therefore  surprising that dreams were not examined for past life residues as well.  After all,  it stands to reason that if past life memories can be accessed under hypnosis and in altered states of consciousness, they have to be present also in our dreams. Several  factors must have contributed to sustaining this blind spot in our field of vision. Dream researchers must have avoided the subject out of fear of professional ridicule. Jungians must have felt threatened by the idea that past life selves might be entitled  to some of the space in the unconscious that had previously been occupied by the archetypes . And for the average dream worker  it would have been perfectly normal to stay within the “neuro-net” of traditional  methods of interpreting dreams.

What shook me out of my “neuro-net” twenty-nine years ago was  a dream that was “different”. Before I had this dream,  I had never given reincarnation any thought.  But during five years of a Jungian analysis in London, I had come to know my dream-world  like the back of my hand.  And this particular dream  was not part of the dream-world I knew.  It seemed to belong to another  identity,  another country, and another time. Moreover,  it was completely devoid of symbolism, which  – as we know – is the alpha and omega  of the dream language.

In this dream,  I am a man; I am standing with my back against a barn-door in a medieval  European town  while an angry mob is pelting me with stones. I am terrified and in pain. To get away from my tormentors,  I say I have to urinate. They let me step inside the barn so that I can relieve myself in private.  I am still aware of taking my penis out of my pants. Then there is a blank. Next  I am being driven on an ox-cart through town,  surrounded by jeering crowds. A red-robed priest is taking me to the court of the Inquisition. I have collapsed on the waggon-floor, sobbing uncontrollably, while deeply ashamed of my lack of composure. For until the public mood had changed,  I had been a celebrity in this town.  While in this man’s body, I had been aware of his distinct personality, his sensitivity, and the complexity of his feelings. This disqualified him as an archetype, which, according to Jungian theory,  is a “type”, rather than a person. From that moment on I became convinced of the existence of reincarnation and was on the look-out for more past life dreams.

At the Jung Institute in Zurich where I started to train a year later,  I met two analysts who had dared to venture into this borderland of the psyche,  knowing full well that it was politically the wrong thing to do.  One, a Dutchman,  Erlo van Waveren,  had been a personal analysand of Jung who,  in the fifties,  had worked  with him on his past life dreams under the seal of secrecy.  In 1978 – seventeen years after his analyst’s death – van Waveren had finally plucked up his courage and published a book about his experiences entitled Journey to the Rebirth. The second rebel was Dr. Elisabeth Ruef, a highly respected senior training analyst at the Zurich Institute and the co-editor of Jung’s Collected Works. She gave a  public lecture series on past life dreams in the wake of van Waveren’s book publication. But while van Waveren – as a patron of the Jung Institute – got away with the heresy,  Elisabeth Ruef was later crucified for it by her colleagues. This taught me that it was not safe to discuss my past life dreams in analysis, and my process went underground. It was kept alive by its own dynamics, by information obtained from an exceptionally gifted past life reader, and by whatever  strange energies I osmotically absorbed while translating Jane Roberts’ book Seth Speaks into German. When this unconventional  part of my training was over, most of my important past lives were integrated;  in addition, I had learned to identify past life dreams and was ready to work with them therapeutically.  After my graduation from the Jung Institute in 1987 I went into private practice in Santa Fe without  ever  advertizing myself as a past life therapist. But those who needed to integrate their past lives through dreams found me anyway.  These people were drawn to this work not by curiosity – as is sometimes the case with those seeking past life regressions – but by an urgent inner necessity. Their process, which was  initiated and timed solely by their own unconscious, was  often painful and lengthy,  but almost always life-changing.
Five years ago, so much extraordinary past life material had accumulated in my files that I felt obligated to leave a record of it. Thus I embarked  on the daunting task of writing a book about it. Many things became clear to me only while I was organizing the dream material.  I discovered the “bloodlines of the soul” – the character traits and individual life themes that run like red threads through our incarnations.  I also observed the relentlessness with which we reap what we have sowed in previous incarnations. This moved  karmic responsibility into the foreground of my awareness.  The book never let me go,  even  in my sleep.  Information filtered down  in my  dreams like the “dew of heaven” of the Kaballah. And when during the day I turned on the television,  I noticed that  “other lives” were creeping into the vernacular. This made me wonder if the archetype of reincarnation, which I was trying to capture in my writing, was beginning to stir in the collective unconscious, too. Still, I had been working in such isolation, that  I had no idea how my book  would be received  when it was finally published in April. A Jungian colleague had predicted that it would be ignored by other analysts. This had taken the wind out of my sails. Consequently, when I made a submission to this year’s IASD conference in Berkeley,  I expected it to be rejected by the dream researchers as well. And when it was accepted,  I still thought that nobody would show up for my presentation.  I was stunned when more and more people filed into the room to hear what I had to say about past life dreams. I was grateful, moved , and a bit overwhelmed  by the enthusiasm with the new information was received. However,  what really got my attention was an e-mail I received two weeks after the conference. It came from a stranger in Istanbul who identified  herself as an IASD member who had not been able to attend the conference. She said she was the leader of an internet dream group of 160 Turkish speaking members,  and lately past life dreams had been very much on their minds. She might even  have  had such dreams herself. Would I please send her a copy of my presentation?  She would read it very carefully.

Then I finally realized that I had been all along part of an international network of dreamers  who were becoming conscious of the past life phenomenon at the same time. What this growing awareness might mean and what effect it might have on human attitudes is difficult to assess at this early point.  It might be a sign that the Aquarian Age is finally dawning on us with a trail of new ideas and greater awareness.  It might also help the peace movement  in our troubled,  hate-and- fear driven world. For who would want to make war on the enemy “out there” knowing that you become what you hate and despise  in one of your next incarnations? And who can afford to look down on members of another race, creed and gender when the evidence for having been all those things ourselves can be found in our own dreams? This throws a new light on Bill Stimson’s inspired statement who founded the Dream Network  over twenty years ago: “To work with dreams in the deepest sense is to be a leader in the revolution of human consciousness.”  (Published in DreamNetwork, Vol. 24 No. 3, Fall 2005 & http://DreamNetwork.net)

Kala speaks with Sabine Lucas about her book Past Life Dreamwork: Healing the Soul through Understanding Karmic Patterns on The Explore Your Spirit with Kala Show. Interview coming in August 2009

More about Sabine Lucas….

She holds a Ph.D. in German and English literature from Heidelberg University and a Diploma in Analytical Psychology from the C.G. Jung Institute in Zurich. While living in England, she taught German language and literature at Reading University and worked for BBC London as a language consultant. Later, as a student in Switzerland, she supported herself by translating Jane Roberts’ books Seth Speaks and The Nature of Personal Reality and Jung’s English correspondence and lectures for the German Collected Works edition into German. Dr. Lucas pioneered dream groups and dream workshops in Switzerland and Austria in the seventies—a time when they were still a novelty. After moving to California in 1983, she worked part-time at the Mental Health Clinic in Mariposa, California, while training future mental health professionals at the California School for Professional Psychology in Fresno in dream analysis.

Since 1987, Sabine has been in private practice in Santa Fe, where she is licensed as a Professional Mental Health Counselor. Although her interest in past life dreams and the concomitant self-exploration goes back to 1976, it has been part of her clinical practice only for the last fifteen years.

At The North Carolina Renaissance Faire, you can step back 400 years into time and history! This full scale, interactive theater experience is like no other. The Faire offers you a chance to visit the days of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth I! At this 16th Century Faire, you’ll find over 110 artisans hawking their wares, you’ll enjoy musicians, jugglers, and the ribaldry of actors in many distinct staging areas. You’ll see brave and bold knights competing for the favor of the Her Majesty’s Court (and for their lady’s affection) during any one of three full-contact jousts held in the Queen’s Tiltyard.

The theme of this Year’s Faire is….

Queen Elizabeth and her Royal Court have been invited by the Earl of Bedford to come and visit with him at his estate in Kingston-Upon-Hull, a major shipping port about ten days journey north of London. Good Queen Bess has accepted his invitation and the town is all abuzz with the exciting news of her imminent arrival. Lord Mayor Charles Babington has requested that the Towne Cryer, Master Harold, gather the citizens into the Towne Square for some important announcements. Just as his honour, Lord Mayor Babington, finishes checking with each of the towne merchants to verify that all preparations are in order for the Queen’s arrival, the gathering is interrupted by Count Bernadino Mendoza, the Spanish ambassador, who asks to address the crowd. It seems, he announces, that a courier, sent by King Philip with an important dispatch for the Queen, is missing. The Count offers a generous reward for anyone who locates the diplomatic pouch containing the dispatch, generating much excitement amongst the crowd.

Suddenly, Captain Richard Langstrom of the Mermaid’s Revenge pushes his way through the crowd, dragging a drunk and disheveled Spaniard behind him. “Is this the scurvy dog you be looking for?” he asks roughly. Indeed, it is the missing courier but, alas, he has misplaced the diplomatic pouch and too much ale has dulled his memory. The search for the missing pouch is on, with Count Mendoza leading the charge and enlisting the aid of the Sheriff and his Deputy and the good citizens of Kingston-Upon-Hull in the hunt.

Where is the missing pouch? What important message for Queen Elizabeth is contained within? And… what is the story behind the mysterious ship, the Mermaid’s Revenge, and its questionable crew? Come to the North Carolina Renaissance Faire and find the answer these questions and more. The fun and excitement of Elizabethan England is right around the corner.
