Understanding Your Soul’s Pre-Birth Plan

Have you ever looked at the world around you and wondered, “Who am I? Why am I here? Is this all there is?” These questions are like carrots we chase to find the truth of our identity and purpose on Earth. 

Many of us feel like we’ve been dropped into the middle of a complex game without a rulebook, stumbling through relationships and career paths, hoping we are doing it “right.” Some of us may even feel like we don’t belong here, that being born in this place and time was a mistake somehow.

I remember when I was three years old, I looked at my hands and didn’t recognize them. It startled me. Not having the vocabulary to tell my mom why her little girl was so panicked, all I could say was, “I want to go home.” Finally, filled with tears and confusion, my mother told me everything was fine, and I was home. It didn’t matter; I kept repeating that I wanted to return home.  

That memory informed my whole life. It has guided me to seek answers, to understand at a deeper, more meaningful level: Why am I in a body? What is my plan? Why did I come here? 

Finding the Answers

The Akashic Records provided the answers for me. The Akashic Record Keepers, who describe themselves as pure Source energy that has never been human and holds no judgment toward the human condition, withdrew access to the Akasha during the “Dark Ages” to protect the wisdom from being misused for personal or political gain. 

Now that humanity has entered the Age of Aquarius, they have reopened these “libraries of light” to assist in the healing of Mother Earth, also known as Gaia. They emphasize that you are never alone and are constantly connected to the infinite power of love.

You Are An Ancient Traveler

You actually came into this life with a “Soul Plan,” a spiritual manual that you wrote yourself before you ever took your first breath. This plan holds the information you are searching for: your gifts, your challenges, and the Divine reason you chose to be here at this pivotal time in human history.

The Record Keeper’s primary message is one of reassurance: your soul knew you would succeed in the plan made before your birth, and every challenge you face is an essential component of your soul’s progression through “Earth School.”

To understand your Soul Plan, you must first recognize who you truly are. You are an Ancient Traveler, a magnificent and expansive quantum soul having a human experience on many levels—emotionally, mentally, physically, and spiritually. You have lived on Earth hundreds, perhaps thousands, of times.

The Record Keepers share that most souls interested in the Akasha have lived at least 400 to 700 lives on Earth. Each of these lifetimes adds a “pearl” to your etheric necklace of wisdom, and your Soul Plan for this life determines which of those pearls you will wear today.

How Your Manual Was Written: The Planning Stage

We often wish our lives came with instructions, especially when we struggle as parents or professionals. Understanding your Soul Plan provides that manual, reassuring you that life is not random. You made these choices to learn how to master your thoughts, emotions, and deeds.

Before you incarnated, you sat in the “great libraries” of the Akashic Field with the Record Keepers and your soul family. Imagine a giant gymnasium full of souls looking for partners, children, and business collaborators. You were there calling out, “Who wants to be my significant other?” or “Who wants to be my child?”

In this planning stage, you identified:

Gifts and Talents: Skills you’ve mastered in past lives, like healing, writing, or leading, that you wanted to share again.

Soul Contracts: Agreements with approximately 25 to 50 souls—your soul family—to support each other or to help heal old karmic patterns.

Challenges and “Brick Walls”: You chose specific obstacles—even difficult ones like health challenges or dysfunctional families—because you knew they would trigger the soul growth you desired.

Now the question becomes, “How do I access it?”

Accessing Your Manual

There are a variety of ways for you to discover the information in the manual you created prior to being born. If you’re a visual learner, there are many books, including the one I wrote called Your Soul Has a Plan, which will help you understand the complexity of your soul and help you understand why you wrote the plan you made.

If you prefer hands-on learning, a class or workshop might be the best option. Here you can practice with fellow seekers and get real-time tips from an instructor to improve your experience. Some do best with a one-on-one session with an Akashic expert. This method allows you a private space to ask personal questions and provides one-on-one guidance for your specific situation.

Choose whatever way feels the most comfortable for you to begin, and you’ll soon reap the benefits of understanding what your soul planned for you in this lifetime by discovering the answers to questions that have long been puzzling you.

A Simple Practice to Begin

If you’d like to begin experiencing this connection for yourself, the following guided visualization offers a simple and accessible way to start.

Begin by placing your feet flat on the floor, connecting to the Earth, and breathing deeply into your heart.

Visualize your heart expanding with unconditional love, then bring your attention to your pineal gland in the center of your head.

Imagine a silvery-blue column of light descending from the Record Keepers, surrounding your entire body and extending deep into the Earth.

This column protects you and holds you in Divine love, raises your frequency, and gently guides you into the Akasha, allowing you to transform your life through heart-centered wisdom.

Saying the Prayer of Remembrance can help deepen and anchor this connection:

Prayer of Remembrance

As I know the truth of my divinity,
I begin to have an experience of myself as one who knows.
I know myself as the ancient and wise soul that I AM.
I am in alignment with my True Self and the manifestation of all things.
My body and soul are healed and enlivened by the Light of the Divine.
I am expansive. I am Love.
So it is. Blessed Be.

TAKE ACTION: Set aside a few quiet moments to enter the Column of Light Meditation and reconnect with the wisdom of your soul’s blueprint.
