Life Purposes Found in the Akashic Records

One of the most common questions people bring to their Akashic Records is: “What is the nature of my soul purpose?”

Because of how society has conditioned us, we often equate purpose with our careers. While our work can certainly be an expression of purpose, we are so much more than our jobs. That’s why, when the guides respond, their answers may sometimes feel vague. In truth, the Records offer us a zoomed-out perspective—one that looks at the entirety of our soul’s journey, not just the role we play in the workplace.

Every soul carries both an individual purpose and a collective purpose. For many lightworkers, life struggles serve as the training ground for their individual purpose. As healing deepens, they naturally begin to step into their collective purpose—supporting humanity’s evolution in a greater way.

Though soul purpose answers may at first appear broad, they are profoundly powerful and all-encompassing. Clients often leave a session reflecting on the themes they’ve heard, only to realize that this “purpose” has been quietly shaping their lives all along. The recognition brings empowerment, helping them anchor into their path with more clarity and confidence.

As you read the examples below, notice what resonates. You may connect with one or many, because soul purpose is not fixed—it evolves throughout your life. This is not an exhaustive list, but it highlights some of the most common purposes revealed in the Records. If you want to know more about your soul purpose and discuss with your guides not just what your soul purpose is but what maybe blocking you from living in your soul purpose or how to express your soul purpose in a way that resonates to you an Akashic reading can help dive deeper into this.
