What is Channeling?

Channeling is something that everyone does. Whether you are expressing yourself through creative writing, making art or playing music, the act of doing so is helping you to tap into a flow of information that goes beyond your conscious mind. Experiencing ‘A-ha’ moments and flashes of inspiration is channeling.

Traditionally, you will see channeling described as entering into an altered state of consciousness and allowing a being or energy to communicate through you, often without your conscious awareness.

This could range from delivering profound messages to speaking in an unfamiliar language. When most people think of channeling, they picture someone in a deep trance, allowing another being or energy to speak through them. However, this is only one form of channeling.

Channeling is simply the process of connecting with higher consciousness, whether that’s your Soul, higher self, spirit guides, or even energies from other dimensions. It’s important to note that you do not need to be in a trance to channel. You can be in a conscious, awake state and still receive guidance and insights.

When you connect to your heart space and act from a place of love and authenticity, you are, in essence, channeling. You’re tapping into your higher self, your soul, and the wisdom that lies beyond your conscious mind.

Why are people scared of Channeling?

What I have learned through my work in the Akashic Records is that many people experience fear or hesitation around channeling, which can be traced back to past lifetimes. This can be ‘witch wounding’ (where someone has been persecuted in a previous lifetime for using their intuitive abilities) or from incarnations during the periods on Earth of Lemuria and Atlantis.

Lemuria and Atlantis were both periods of densification in our evolutionary cycle. During these periods of densification, not only does Earth herself become more material but the ability to connect into higher consciousness for us becomes more difficult. Equally, the potential of tapping into the devolutionary stream of the lower astral plane/8th sphere becomes much greater.

For example, I have worked with individuals who were incarnated at the time of Lemuria who experienced a division within society between those who believed that channeling should be open and free, while others felt that strict guidelines and systems needed to be in place to ensure that only beings and energies of the evolutionary stream were contacted. As the frequency of the Earth continued to densify during Atlantis, this issue grew more prominent and for many who have experienced lifetimes during these times there is a fear of channeling.

If you identify with this fear, it’s essential to remember that this is normal and can be worked through on your spiritual journey. Akashic Records Clearing can be very helpful in respect of this.

Types of Channeling: From Trance to Conscious CHanneling

There are three main types of channeling in our present day and each offers a unique way to receive and transmit information from the higher spiritual realms.

1. Complete Trance Channeling

This is perhaps the most dramatic form of channeling, where the person enters a deep trance state, and their consciousness is temporarily sidelined. During this time, a being or energy can take control of their physical form, often speaking or writing through them.

2. Partial Trance Channeling

In partial trance channeling, the individual enters a trance-like state but retains some level of awareness. They can observe the information coming through, but their conscious mind is not fully in control. This form allows for a more balanced experience for the channeler, as they can both receive messages and process them simultaneously.

3. Conscious Channeling

Conscious channeling is when the individual is fully aware of what is happening and can actively receive messages while remaining in control of their body and mind. This is the type of channeling practiced by many who engage in spiritual practices such as automatic writing, or those who channel their higher self or spirit guides.

The Importance of Discernment in Channeling

Whether you’re receiving information through a trance or conscious state, it’s crucial to use discernment when engaging with channeled messages. Just because information is channeled doesn’t mean it’s automatically true or aligned with your highest good and/or the highest good of all.

When listening to, reading or receiving a channeled message, always ask yourself: Does this resonate with me?

The energy you feel when connecting to this information will help you connect to and strengthen your discernment. Connecting to Higher-level beings, those of the evolutionary stream, will feel expansive, full of unconditional love, and supportive. These beings and energies will NEVER infringe upon your free will or try to control you. On the other hand, connection to beings from the devolutionary stream can make you feel contracted, energetically drained and they may attempt to interfere with your free will. They are more likely to provide instructions, whereas the beings of the evolutionary stream will offer guidance.

As a golden rule, always remember that no true spiritual guide will ever tell you what to do. They will offer guidance, suggestions, and considerations, but the ultimate decision and choice will always remain yours.

Healing Past Fears and Opening to Channel

If you’re feeling a call to channel but are apprehensive due to past fears or experiences, it’s important to understand that these fears can be worked through. You can learn more about the root causes of these fears through working in your Akashic Records and utilise the Akashic Records to clear through the energetic stagnation these fears cause. You never need to let past life experiences block your spiritual growth and development in this incarnation.

The key is to trust your intuition-it will always help you discern what is in alignment to your evolution and what is not. Find a practice or teacher that helps you connect to, strengthen and develop your discernment and internal guidance system.

For those interested in channeling using the Akashic Records as part of your spiritual journey, specific training can help ensure that you’re connecting to the highest spiritual realms, offering you both protection and guidance.
