This Akashic Records prayer can be used to open and read your own personal Records.
By using the Akashic Records portal prayer I will share with you below, you can activate your Divine birthright to access and receive guidance from your Records.

What is the Akashic Records Portal Prayer?
The portal prayer is an intentional collection of words or statements. These words are designed to help you ascend into the high-frequency energy field of the Records.
To actually ascend into the energy field of the Records, you must release human density and clear yourself out as much as possible.
For example, it’s important to release ego, self-doubt, attachment to outcome, rigid expectations, and mental chatter before accessing the Akashic Records. (For more on this, check out my 10-part podcast series on ego interference in Akashic Records work.)
In fact, it’s almost impossible to truly access the Records if your personal energy field is weighed down by these lower frequency emotions or vibrations.
Speaking the portal prayer can help you become centered, grounded, and still. This will increase your receptivity and help you open your Records more easily and without resistance.
Why is the prayer important?
I like to think of the Akashic Records portal prayer as a prayer of remembrance.
When you were born into this lifetime, your Soul made the conscious choice to incarnate into a physical body and forget about your experiences before this life.
This forgetting happens as part of each new incarnation. You must forget (momentarily) where you really come from and what you’ve been through in past lifetimes. This makes it possible to learn new lessons and expand in your current lifetime.
Sometimes, this forgetting also means that we forget we’re all interconnected. That we are one with everything. That there’s no separation – between us and other people, between us and the Universe, even between us and the Divine.
In other words, there’s no actual separation between you and the Akashic Records. In many ways, you are part of the Records yourself since, from a spiritual perspective, everything is interwoven.
However, because we often think we’re separate from – or lower than – the Divine, the Akashic Records prayer can help you remember that there is no separation.
The prayer can help you break through the illusion of separation. It can also help you remember, powerfully, that you are a Divine being yourself.
This remembering then helps you merge with the energy field and the higher consciousness of the Akashic Records, as you become one with that consciousness.
Where does the prayer come from?
The prayer I use with clients and teach in my courses was passed down to me by my long-time Akashic Records mentor.
Based on guidance I’ve received from the Records themselves, I’ve also edited and refined the prayer over time. (Please feel free to tweak it so it aligns with your energy!)
Different teachers and readers will use different prayers.
It’s actually not the specific words of the prayer that matter as much as the intention and frequency with which the prayer is spoken.
I also find it important to not be dogmatic or rigid about the words of the prayer. After all, the language of the prayer is just the vehicle helping us connect.
When speaking the prayer, having a clear, focused, ethical, and open-hearted intention based on integrity is key. This is the kind of energy with which you want to open your Records.
Why are there different prayers out there?
Different teachers have developed their own prayers over time, or adapted prayers handed down to them by their own mentors (as is the case for me). This will vary based on the background, training, and particular reading style that different practitioners and teachers have.
When looking for a prayer, the most important thing is to make sure the words resonate with you when you speak them.
Ask yourself: does the language of the prayer help you feel centered, empowered, clear, and open to receive whatever guidance is most relevant for you?
The Akashic Records Portal Prayer
Opening your own Akashic Records is a sacred and powerful process.
Just like learning a new language or instrument, learning how to work with the Records can take time, persistence, patience, and practice.
For additional, step-by-step guidance on how to open and read your own Akashic Records, you can sign up for my free mini course here.
Here are some general steps you’ll want to follow before reciting the portal prayer:
- Set aside some distraction-free time and get centered.
- Take a few deep breaths.
- Consciously release expectations, ego mind, attachment to getting a specific outcome, and anything else that might be “clouding” your intuition and receptivity.
- Once you feel open, clear, and receptive, speak the portal prayer twice – once out loud, and once silently to yourself. The full text of the prayer is below.
I ask God [can be replaced with Divine Source or the Universe] to surround me
in a circle of white light for protection and strength.
May I be joined in my intention to expand my Soul,
To remember who I am and why I am here as it is written in the Akashic Records.
I ask the Lords, Masters, Teachers, and Loved Ones of the Records
to allow me to open and read the Records of me for this purpose.
In the holiest of holies, and in gratitude to the Lords of the Akashic Records.
Amen/Aho/So it is.
The Akashic Records Closing Prayer
After each journey into your personal Records, it’s important to close them.
This will give closure to your Akashic journey and enable you to return “down to Earth” and ground yourself.
The closing prayer is as follows, and you only need to speak it once out loud:
In deep gratitude,
I thank the Record Keepers for all the information, wisdom, and healing provided to me in this reading.
May everything I have received continue to help me for as long as it is needed.
[Visualize your Records closing at this point — maybe calling up the visual image of large wooden doors closing.]
My Akashic Records are now closed.
Amen/Aho/So it is.
With love & wishing you illuminating and expansive journeys into the Akashic Records,
Josephine

How would you word this Opening Prayer when using it to open someone else’s Records?
Thank you for your question! That’s something I teach in my Akashic Records Certification Program, as I believe it’s best to have some training and practice before attempting to open anyone else’s Records.
Thank you for sharing this. I think I do this already, without having realized it.
You’re welcome! I want everyone to have access to the Akashic Records — it’s such a powerful tool. And yes, I hear you on “spontaneously” accessing the Records! My students report this experience all the time, before they come into my training programs.
If you fall asleep while in the Akashic Records and you don’t get to recite the closing prayer is it okay to recite it when next you awaken?
Hi Orlanda! Yes, completely ok to speak the prayer as soon as you remember. Nothing “bad” can happen if you leave your own Records open for an extended period of time — in fact, one of the practices I recommend to my beginner students is to experiment with opening their Records and leaving them open for an entire day, or overnight. This can help us see what it feels like to move through life, or the day (or night), being fully connected to the Akashic field. It can be a fascinating exercise!
Hi josephine,
I recently opened my akashic records using pathway prayer to clear unwanted relationship in my past life, present and future too..
The whole day and next day I started to get dizziness, is this normal?
I tried some grounding practices to normalise.
But I can feel great release happening.
Do I have to close my records with pathway prayer?
Hi Naveen, great to hear you’ve been able to use my portal prayer to connect! It’s normal to experience dizziness, a slight headache, lack of appetite, increased thirst, etc during or after being in the Records (especially in the beginning stages of working with them). You’re exactly right that this is an important release that needs to happen. Using grounding practices is a great strategy to support yourself. (As a disclaimer, of course: if any of these physical symptoms linger beyond a few days, or get worse, please consult a medical doctor as it’s likely to be something else.) Yes, it’s best to close your Records once you’ve completed your work with them. You can create your own prayer or simply say something like, “With deep gratitude and love, I thank the Records for all the information and healing provided during this reading. My Records are now closed.”
Can we be connected to the field of our records throughout our life without knowing? Thank you so much in advance for your reply.
Hi Dan, thank you for this insightful question! Yes, we can absolutely be connected to the Akashic field (and even receive “spontaneous downloads” from that field) throughout our lives. In fact, it is our most natural state to be connected to this field of consciousness at all times — since we’re not really separate from it. (Even though, as humans, sometimes we THINK we’re separate from it.) I hope this helps!
This reads like a classic יהי רצון/Yehi Ratzon prayer. Similar formulation.
And these records in our traditions are called ספר הזיכרונות/ book of records.
Very interesting. Yes it’s formulated in a very potent way. Use in good health and for ultimate good.
Beautiful! Thank you for adding this context from your sacred traditions and background. It’s fascinating to learn how the Records have made an appearance across so many spiritual and religious traditions, across time and space. I love that this is something that unites us all, in our human and Divine natures.
