Over the years on my spiritual path, I’ve discovered something that keeps revealing itself in deeper and more beautiful ways: what many call Christ Consciousness. I didn’t arrive at it through dogma or doctrine. It came through experiences—moments of clarity, unexpected peace, and the gentle knowing that love is the real language of the universe. And, very recently it was pointed out to me by a client who saw how blown away I was by the experiences that I was getting within the Akashic Records. I have always declared that I am spiritual not religious but have recently experienced many biblical characters on my journey into the ethereal realm of the Akashic Records, This has led me on a journey to explore Christ Consciousness and what it means to me.

For me, Christ Consciousness isn’t about religion. It’s an inner awakening, a tuning-in to a level of love, compassion, and unity that feels both familiar and sacred. And the more I’ve opened to it, the more I’ve found that it supports and amplifies another part of my spiritual life: channeling intuitive guidance from guides, angels, archangels, and even biblical figures like Jesus in a symbolic or contemplative way.
In this article, I want to share what Christ Consciousness means to me personally, how it shows up in my life, and the way it creates a safe, loving foundation for receiving spiritual guidance.
What Christ Consciousness Means to Me - When I talk about Christ Consciousness, I’m referring to a certain state of being—a frequency of deep compassion, humility, and unconditional love. It’s not something outside of me; it’s something I sense within myself when I’m aligned, centered, and openhearted. It’s that feeling of softening instead of reacting. Forgiving instead of holding tight. Seeing the divine spark in someone—even when they can’t see it themselves. Sometimes it shows up as peace that doesn’t make sense logically. Other times, it’s a nudge to be kinder, gentler, or more present. And occasionally, it feels like a warm presence that simply says, “I am here.”
How I Cultivate This Awareness - Christ Consciousness isn’t something that switched on all at once for me. It’s been an unfolding, a deepening. Some of the practices that support this state for me are:
• Quiet meditation or prayer Not the kind where I’m trying to get anything—just allowing myself to be. Especially when I enter the Akashic Records.
• Letting go of old wounds For me, forgiveness has been one of the biggest doorways. Every time I release something heavy, more light comes in.
• Choosing compassion on purpose When I pause and shift from judgment to understanding, I feel that Christ-like presence expanding in me. This has been a big thing to achieve as we live in a world where judgement is all around us.
• Staying connected to my heart Whether through breathwork, journaling, or simply stopping to feel, these moments bring me back to a higher, more loving perspective. It’s in these spaces that I feel the veil thin, and intuition becomes clearer and more accessible. I love to do this when I am in nature or running.
How Christ Consciousness Supports My Channeling - As this awareness grew in me, I noticed something surprising: my ability to receive spiritual guidance became much clearer. It wasn’t dramatic or “otherworldly.” It was gentle, like someone turning down background noise so I could finally hear a quiet voice that had always been there. When I’m aligned with Christ Consciousness, I find:
• My intuition feels steadier
• Guidance comes through with more clarity
• Messages feel loving rather than fear-based
• I’m less in my head and more in my heart
• I can sense the difference between ego and true inner wisdom It’s as if entering this loving state opens a channel where guidance—whether from angels, guides, or symbolic, biblical energies—can reach me more easily and more purely. I initially struggled with telling people who and what I was channelling because it felt egotistical but as I worked with the energies more and more, the messages were far too profound to ignore.
My Experience With Channeling Guides, Angels, and Christ-Like Presence - When I channel, it’s not about summoning beings outside myself. It feels more like opening to different expressions of wisdom, different “flavors” of guidance that each carry their own quality. Here’s how it typically shows up for me:
• Guides They feel familiar—almost like supportive friends who know me better than I know myself. I instantly know their name but I cannot tell you how - it's almost as though they announce themselves.
• Angels Their presence feels gentle, steady, and protective, like they’re guiding me toward peace. I very often see gold and white when they appear.
• Archangels I experience them as powerful, clear, and purposeful energies, each with their own distinct “signature.” Some of them have a distinct colour signature. I will know when blue shows itself it is Archangel Michael and green is very often Archangel Raphael.
• Biblical or Christ-like figures Occasionally, I experience the presence of Jesus—not in a literal, physical sense, but as a profound feeling of compassion, forgiveness, and unconditional love. I will see an image of him as he descends. It feels like a template of divine kindness I can tune into, a consciousness that calls me to rise into my highest self. These experiences don’t feel forced or fantastical. They feel meaningful, intimate, and deeply supportive—like a spiritual dialogue that happens in the quiet spaces of the heart.
Why Christ Consciousness Keeps My Channeling Grounded - One thing I’ve learned is that love is the greatest safeguard. When I channel through the lens of Christ Consciousness
• My intentions stay aligned which is very important when entering the Akashic Records.
• The messages come through gently and compassionately
• I remain grounded and centered
• I never feel overwhelmed
• The experience stays connected to healing, service, and authenticity.
To me, channeling isn’t about seeking supernatural experiences. It’s about deepening my relationship with love, truth, and clarity—and then sharing that with the world.
How Christ Consciousness Shapes My Daily Life
The real beauty of Christ Consciousness is that it doesn’t stay in meditation or spiritual moments—it follows me into everyday life. I notice it when I’m choosing patience instead of irritation. When I’m listening more deeply. When I’m giving someone the benefit of the doubt. When I’m willing to grow, heal, and show up with integrity. When I trust the quiet intuitive nudges inside me. This, to me, is the true expression of Christ Consciousness: living with an open heart and letting love be the guide. Even learning to love myself, my body and my spirit and nourishing each and every one of them with whatever they require. Whether that be rest, running, quiet meditation or the food that will maintain me to the highest vibration.
Closing Thoughts for me
Christ Consciousness is both a path and a presence—a continual reminder to return to love, again and again. It’s the state that allows me to hear spiritual guidance clearly and safely, to connect with higher realms of wisdom, and to navigate my life with more peace and compassion. In this 3D experience that can be sometimes difficult to achieve but it is possible. And the truth is, this consciousness is available to everyone. We don’t earn it—we remember it. The more we soften, open, forgive, and listen, the more it reveals itself. And when it does, it becomes a companion on our journey, guiding us with clarity and love.
