The Akashic Creative — May 2025
A Monthly Akashic Newsletter for Creative People
The Akashic Records is a database that holds detailed descriptions of every feeling, action, and energetic imprint that has existed across the galaxies, across the universe, and across lifetimes. Some mention it as a Library of Memories, The Great Library, or, as the Bible has referred to it: The Book of Life. All are correct.
Located deep within the Heart space of a person, the Akashic Records is a place where information is kept, guarded, and transmitted. It is a database that holds the history of your soul and every decision it has made during its lifespan across millennia. This information does not belong to any one religion, culture, or species. It does not discriminate and it does not judge. Once accessed, the information is channeled through trusted sources (practitioners and otherwise) that would then convey the information exactly as communicated.
Hello, I am Mikaila, and I am an Akashic Records Practitioner. If you’d like to know more info on what the Akashic Records are, here is a FAQ page that I wrote explaining all about them. If you follow me, you know I have a weekly newsletter, called The Akashic Reminder. Through this, I give weekly updates on news and offerings related to the Akasha! But this new project, The Akashic Creative, is meant to be a monthly newsletter targeted toward helping Creatives stay in alignment. Staying in creative alignment helps to attract the right opportunities to you — increased support and recognition.
This month, I’m also launching a membership, The Akashic Creative Renaissance Club, to use Akashic energy to help us with removing blocks that keep us out of alignment! Month to month, I’ll channel this newsletter (The Akashic Creative) and design Group Sessions to help us stay in alignment through our Creative process. Even better than that, each month, you’ll be assigned a new Creative Project by the Akashic Records designed to help you break through Creative stagnancy! Read more about it on my Patreon!
I’ve worked with the Akashic Records over the years to bring many works to life: books, a podcast, short films, and more! So I have some great results and experience to pull from. Thus, the Akashic Creative Renaissance Club was born! This newsletter is part of the club membership. However, I’ve allowed it to be available for free in May. This is simply a preview before future months are charged. But once you read the information provided, you’ll see exactly why! Feel free to read all of this or the bits and pieces that are most important to you.
Alright, take your time reading, it’s a lot to take in! Take notes, and after each section, there’s an option to download this newsletter (click here) onto your phone to access it whenever you need it!
I am currently offering readings via my website in case you’d like to take a deep dive into your own Akashic Records!
Understanding the Themes of the Month
Me: What are the overall energetic themes for the month of May, and how do these themes influence creatives?
Records: is a month of increased desperation for the collective, where themes of need, scarcity, fear, and uncertainty of the future are becoming more prominent worldwide. Unfortunately, because the energy of desperation is so prominent, this is likely to influence creatives in a manner that makes them feel as if they themselves have to also exhibit desperate behaviors.
What we mean by desperate is: feeling as if whatever it is that you are desiring, asking for, in need of, etc., and so on, will be unprovided for, thus pushing you to go to extreme lengths in order to provide for yourself or, and in some cases, take from others in order to provide for the self.
Because this is an energy present in May that is heavily influencing Creatives, it is quite likely that those in the creative fields may find that they are being stolen from, or are feeling inclined to steal from others. Some are also finding that they are plagiarizing works or being plagiarized, while some may feel the need to fight with others who are like them to be deemed as prolific enough to maintain attention from their supporters, their friends, their clients, and otherwise.
So for creatives this month, it is important for them to recognize these patterns of desperation, these urges to engage in scarcity, in petty fights, and instead of engaging with them, express them.
By “express,” we mean it would be beneficial to allow these themes to become prominent in your work this month. The feeling of desperation, the feeling of wanting to steal, the feeling of wanting to fight for dominance, fight for attention, and things of that nature should then become themes in your work, so that you are not actively acting through these themes in a way that is detrimental to your own well-being and the well-being of those around you.
Because one of the major themes of May is desperation, creatives are likely to experience the need to do things that they have not done before, even things that they have once told themselves that they were once uncomfortable with–things they would never do. On one end of the spectrum, this is correctly guided because many creatives have been receiving visions and ideas that would allude to their next steps in their creative works, while on the other side, creatives have been getting ideas or visions, but instead, have decided to make their own path forward in order to capitalize upon this energy of desperation.
And so for the first group of people, they will likely find that through utilizing this energy of desperation to make a foundation for themselves that is correctly aligned, they will actively attract support in this endeavor. And many are likely to find support that is much more than they expected at first — support that would allow them to ease away from the energy of desperation into a self-assuredness that is then expressed through their creative works.
This month, the second group of people is likely to find that in their desperation, they decide to abandon all sense of what they know to work well for them in favor of pursuing an avenue they believe would help them advance more quickly by making quick money or gaining quick recognition. And so, while they may gain this recognition or money, it is quite likely that it is short-lived because there is no heart, there is no dedication, and there is no authentic vibration that is boosting this.
And so in turn, this group is likely to find that eventually their desire to seek more stability becomes futile because they are lacking in their ability to trust where their work is going.
Overall, creatives this month need to find ways to navigate this energy of desperation in a manner that allows them to remain detached yet aware of what is happening around them.
Creatives need to be aware of when others are copying them because they are being admired versus copying them because another person is desperate for the attention that they have.
And in another way, it is important for creatives themselves to be aware of their own motivation behind copying another person.
The idea of creative ownership is quite different from our perspective than it would be for yours. However, our perspective does not serve to answer the question in the way that you intend.
That is all. Next question.
Me: What can creatives do to best utilize the energy present in May to improve and amplify the impact of their work?
Records: The best way for creatives to utilize the energy present in the month of May is, like we’ve stated, to incorporate the energy of desperation into their work. And so, in one case, if they are a writer, what does it feel like for that character that you are writing about to be desperate? How does a character act in moments of desperation? What leads this character to feel the need to steal, to take? To fight? To create unrest? To react violently? And on the opposite end, what would it feel like for this character to have everything that they need, but also feel desperate for more?
So when you think about it this way, creatives can best utilize this energy this month to explore the polarity that can be expressed through desperation.
What does creativity look like through the lens of someone who does not have enough, who has possibly never had enough, but is needing to survive, and is faced with scarcity over and over and over again? And on the other end, what does it look like for someone who has had it all and who has been comfortable with what they have, to suddenly feel desperation? How do they react when they suddenly are not able to have what it is that they need?
And so, this month, we strongly suggest that creatives reflect the stark reality of the energies this month with as much honesty, rawness, or vulnerability and objectivity as possible. Raw. Real. Honest. The reason we suggest this is because, for creatives this month, their projects are most amplified when the audience is able to recognize themselves.
Creative works this month are best used to serve the purpose of self-reflection. In order for creatives to amplify their work, there is a need for deep self-reflection and self-recognition to be displayed.
This is the same for all Creative avenues. What does it feel like to suddenly be told no when a yes means your survival?
Creatives this month are actively taking on the role of the transmuter, but they are transmuting through self-recognition and self-reflection. That is all.
Me: Any additional info on what imagery or motifs would be advantageous to incorporate into creative works this month?
Records: Desperation. And also, bareness. Rawness. Things that are stripped away from over-glamorized, overproduced, to be simple. Bare. Skeletal. Things of that nature.
Skeletal imagery would be important to use, as well as fire burns and fabric burning. Themes of destruction. Things being torn. Waste. Things spilling or toppling over. Flooding. Wrinkles. Exhaustion. Struggle. Perseverance. Internal struggle or awareness.
These themes are best to be utilized in creative works this month because they allow the collective to recognize fears that they have not fully allowed themselves to address within themselves, to speak about, and otherwise.
These images, these ideas, these patterns, and means of expression are best utilized in creative works this month to influence the collective to be a bit more honest about their emotional experience, which is needed so that the collective may start to ask for what it is they actually want and need.
As much as there is desperation, instead of the collective deciding to ask for the help that they need, they are much more inclined to take it. And so, it is through the display of these various themes in creative works this month that the collective will start to feel recognized in a way that allows them to ask for help and lend a hand. That is all.
Me: What themes would be best to avoid incorporating into creative works this month?
Records: This month, we suggest avoiding works that have themes of ostentatious bragging, pedestaling, God complexes, or otherwise.
The reason is that there is an overall theme of desperation this month, including the aforementioned energies in creative works can influence an audience to want to knock the creator down a peg or knock the creative works down a peg.
We would also suggest avoiding creating works that do not have a clear thread of connection. What we mean by this is: we do not suggest works that are disjointed in nature or that cause confusion, but we also do not suggest works that distort truth or honesty.
The reason is that the collective is seeking truth, clarity, and a reflection, and these can serve to distort it so far out of what is necessary to spark emotional, mental, and physical shifts within the collective.
Also, these are likely to be less popular and less supported than the themes listed in the previous question. That is all.
Me: What kinds of creative projects will best serve the collective this month?
Records: Projects that include dance or movement. Projects that increase fluidity, connecting one thought to the next. Projects that incorporate portraits of hands, descriptions of hands, and otherwise. Works that amplify the importance of water and its ability to cleanse, release, purge, shift from one element to the next without desperation or apprehension at the next stage of its own existence. Imagery that also incorporates snakes. Skeletons. Blades of grass. Insects. Poetry. And kisses.
Projects that aim to expose the vulnerability of not having something that is needed for survival. Projects that expose reality. Projects that peek behind the curtain.
Projects that help to dispel an illusion are ones that are the most energetically supported this month, and these are the best to serve the collective because the collective is seeking honesty, rawness, and truth this month.
Me: What are the most prominent blocks surfacing for the collective that are preventing creative flow, recognition, or support?
Records: The current block that is surfacing for the month of May is one that highlights a desire for quick progress and instant results. And so, when this kind of block occurs, this not only prevents action, but it also prevents one’s ability to sustain long-term.
And so, when there is a desire for quick results because of the theme of desperation, this essentially results in a lack of attention to detail, a lack of authentic resonance, a depletion of resources, and an overexertion of energy.
Instead of noticing where the creative work needs a bit more attention to refine and increase in impact or potency, the creator decides to shoehorn their way through the production and development phase, in order to display something that is a bit lackluster.
And so, in this sense, it is quite likely that creatives this month feel the pressure to get creative works out without fully allowing themselves to take into account the overall message and intention of their work.
And any work produced without intention feels disconnected from the audience. And in this way, it is quite a large hindrance, especially when creatives are trying to garner new audience members or maintain the audience that they currently have, as this work that is produced feels a bit less involved.
In order for creatives to be able to work through these blockages, of course, there needs to be a bit more attention to detail, but also, creatives this month should pay attention to their need for control and their trust of time.
When there is an overextended need for control, there is often a distortion of time. And so, in this manner, a person procrastinates or they do not take enough time to fully flesh out their idea before acting on it.
This leads to corners being cut, which then later leads to a lack of success in the long run. When there is an issue with the recognition of time, the creative does not allow for additional ideas to come to them. And also, they do not allow themselves the space to breathe into the work and to allow the creative work itself to breathe as necessary. Instead, the creative suffocates its work through its desire to control time, thus creating a sense of rushed product and lack of depth.
In order to work through this, creatives are advised to work in layers, by addressing the foundational layer and building upon it with each layer, week by week, until the project is finished. That is all.
Me: What are the most prominent talents surfacing for the collective that could increase creative flow, recognition, or support, and how can the collective utilize them?
Records: The most prominent talent that is surfacing for the collective currently is radical honesty. When we talk about the idea of needing to turn a mirror to society, radical honesty is involved. The reason why this is considered to be a talent is that many kinds of art lack the ability to create depth due to an aversion to recognizing society as it exists currently.
There is an aversion to seeing things as they truly are. And when society is deciding collectively to live in a state of self-disillusionment, any creations that are taking heed of this pattern of self-disillusionment lack the ability to inspire in ways that would spiral into deep recognition of internal flaws and areas of improvement.
And so, a community that is self-disillusioned is not a community that can progress. And in this manner, when we speak about the emerging talent this month, being radical honesty, this starts from the creative being radically honest about their own shortcomings.
And so, many can find that this month, they recognize their shortcomings and can speak about them on camera quite easily. Others find that radical honesty comes with an emotional price that they are not willing to pay. So this month, those that are willing to utilize their radical honesty by first reflecting their shortcomings — and their desperate desires — through their art, will then amplify the potency of the works that they decide to display this month, helping to garner increase in spirit, inspirational flow, recognition, and support overall.
That is all.
Me: What group sessions are best advised for Mikaila to conduct for the Creative Renaissance Club for this month?
Records: We suggest the first to be geared toward improving the relationship with time. And so this will be addressing the desire for control and removing blockages that increase the desire for control. And for the second, we suggest a question-and-answer session to help the group get clear on their creative endeavors.
The Feminine & Masculine Creative
Me: How is this month’s energy influencing the Feminine Creative Collective this month? And how best can the feminine utilize this energy for their benefit?
Records: The month of May is influencing feminine creatives through increasing feelings of solitude and confinement.
Many in the feminine creative collective this month are feeling trapped, confined, or stuck at a standstill. While some in the feminine collective find this to be stagnating creatively, others in the collective are finding these energies of solitude, confinement, and otherwise to be exactly what they need to set themselves free.
So for one part of the feminine collective, they are finding that they are essentially being energetically siphoned or suffocated by the programming that exists in the month of May. On the other end, the second part of the feminine collective is then allowing themselves to utilize this energy of self-confinement to reinvent themselves and push their envelope further.
And so overall, for the feminine collective, they are likely to experience feelings of confinement, and how they utilize these energies that are present influences the potency of their work creatively. And so for the feminine collective, they can utilize these energies to their benefit in their creative work through amplifying the sense of confinement, of traps, of scarcity in their creative work.
How do these energies influence other energies in your work? Again, how can you reflect reality in your work? The deeper and more raw you can go within the creative works this month, the better for the feminine.
Me: Is this month’s energy hindering the creative feminine at all?
Records: The month of May is only hindering the part of the feminine collective that is not willing to utilize the energy of confinement to seek a sense of freedom. Many are using this energy of feeling confined to remain trapped, complacent, and stagnant. They are using this energy as a reason to remain in suffering.
And in this way, if you are actively choosing this, then you can decide to stay the same if you would like. And so, when it comes to those who are experiencing this pattern, they are likely to notice that their creative works not only lack depth, but also resonance — as in, you do not feel as if the work that you’re creating resonates deeply within you, and even your audience starts to feel that as well. This can lead to your audience starting to make more negative comments, the people that you show your work to feeling as if something is off, and things of that nature.
You may also feel exhausted, like you’re in a state of confusion and you don’t know what to do next.
When you are in this energy of confinement, it is often self-imposed. And so, for feminine creatives, it is advised that they find ways to break through this energy of confinement through their creative works. This is where they are able to seek a bit of energetic freedom so that they do not feel as if they must adhere to a certain standard that was never meant for them to be able to flourish.
That is all.
Me: How is this month’s energy influencing masculine creatives this month, and how best can they utilize this energy for their benefit?
Records: The month of May is influencing masculine creatives through giving them a sense of false security. This month, there is likely to be a few turbulent experiences felt through the masculine creative collective in the sense that for part of the month, especially at the beginning, they may start to feel as if they are gaining traction in their career, in their creative work, garnering the attention that they were seeking.
However, we call this false security because by the second half of the month, they are likely to realize that when their foundations for the first part of the month were not properly constructed, the second part of the month shows weaknesses in their flooring, and so plans that they have erected may start to fall through, or in some cases, whatever project that they were working on starts to feel like that it does not resonate.
And in other cases, the masculine collective can find that they must revisit the drawing board and start all over from scratch. So part of the masculine collective will find that the second part of this month allows them to experiment further within their work, and this allows them to dig deeper into their own sense of self, to create a more authentic meaning in their work. Whereas another part of the masculine creative collective is finding that as they approach the second half of the month, this disintegration process feels devastating — not only for their finances, but for their overall idea of self.
For the masculine creative collective this month, it is important that they are aware of the impact of laying a proper foundation. Because where some can find it challenging but rewarding to revisit and reconstruct a falling floor, many find that it is time wasted in the end and an insufficient way to spend their time.
For the masculine creative collective, it is advised that they slow down a bit this month so that they are fully aware of the themes that are wanting to be expressed through them, instead of deciding to continue with what they have always known to work for them. This month is a month where what usually works is not necessarily one that is sustainable, especially in the new political and energetic climate.
The masculine creatives can utilize the energy of May for their benefit by being prepared to restructure, reorganize, revisit, and revitalize. Allowing themselves to come back to the drawing board in order to construct a creative work that is much more appealing to themselves and to their audience than the originally planned piece of work. And so what is needed for this to be fully embraced is a detachment from outcome, validation, and control in order to remain receptive to new ideas that can help improve the current situation at hand.
Me: Is this month’s energy hindering the creative masculine at all?
Records: The creative masculine this month is being hindered by energies of internal frustration that result from la ack of resonance. This lack of resonance comes from a lack of proper foundation. The lack of proper foundation results from an aversion to patience, to time, to control, and an overexertion of a need for control. The more that these elements are present within the masculine creator’s work, the harder he would find the creative process to be–unless they are looking at these experiences through the lens of raw truth.
In what ways have your shortcomings colored your work and your process? What will be beneficial here is showing behind-the-scenes videos, stories, and things of that nature about the difficulty of the creative process. This month, see what comes up for you. What fears have hindered your work? In what ways are you willing to express it in order to make sure that they do not last long term?
Social Media & Marketing
Me: What is the best way for creatives to market their creative works for money this month?
Records: The best way for creatives to market their works for money this month include using bright pops of color, especially neon oranges and pinks, as well as pastels. Other ways that would be beneficial are through telling the audience how honest you are being. Get rid of overproduced phrases that sound like they are being marketed, then, move to break the fourth wall so that the audience feels as if they are being included in your work, rather than just consuming and being sold.
This month, the more immersive you can make your marketing, the better. It is not enough to ask your audience questions, but to involve them in your decision-making process or reveal something that they honestly have not yet seen from you before. And so this goes back to the theme of being honest, raw, and real. And so the more that you can capture this feeling this month, the better for increasing commission, creative involvement, sponsorships, donations, memberships, and more.
Me: What is the best way for creatives to market their creative works for popularity this month?
Records: To increase the popularity of creative works, we suggest improving editing skills, particularly when it comes to graphics in videos and posts that are made about your creative works. This month, try an editing style that has not been tried by you before.
Try maing content around breaking the fourth wall. Behind-the-scenes content will be quite popular this month, especially if you are revealing secrets, and/or techniques used to create a particular piece of work.
Also, think of making interviews about the emotional process of creating your work. And even if your creative work does not necessarily need an interview, make one anyway. This month, it is quite important for the audience of creatives to know the creator more sincerely because as the collective is searching for its truth and honesty, they are desiring a connection through creative works where the creator is bearing who they are, their desires, their goals, their focus, and the importance of their own work and how it has impacted them thus far. Think of the realities of being this creator and this would allow you to increase in popularity this month.
Me: Is it advised to follow popular trends this month or try something different?
Records: The only trend that would be best to follow increase a sense of personal honesty. And so for example, if there is a trend, where people are making trick shots, behaving as if you would do that trick shot in the same way that others have done it…but instead of finishing, stop in the middle and say something strangely honest, before continuing on with the trick shot. And so this idea can be replicated anywhere, regardless of the medium which you are creating from.
Me: What is the best posting schedule for this month for creatives?
Records:
For TikTok, we advise early mornings between 6 and 9 a.m..
For YouTube, we suggest midday between 1 to 3 p.m..
For Twitter, we suggest early mornings 5 a.m. — 8 a.m.
For Threads, we suggest late night 7 to 11 p.m..
For Pinterest, we suggest randomizing your posting schedule. And so if you have posted in the morning, post in the afternoon orat night time.
For Instagram, for regular posts, we suggest 12–3 p.m. And for Reels, we would suggest 4–7 p.m.
For all social media, as mentioned. Once a day or three times a week for this month.
What are the best apps to post on that would allow for increased attention with quicker results?
Records: Instagram Reels is the most potent for increasing the follower count and attention this month.
Closing
Me: Is there anything else creatives should know about this month that hasn’t already been stated?
Records: This month, creatives have lots of inspiration to look forward to, because often art is inspired through experiences of pain, instability, lack, frustration, and otherwise. And so this month is actually quite a good month for bearing the raw truth, because it is through these kinds of months, where new creatives are recognized, crowned, and amplified. And so allowing yourself to remain open to this idea, regardless of what it is that you may witness around you, helps to increase the threads of inspiration that have remained dormant inside of you.
Another thing the Creative Collective should know about this month is that this is a great month to restart. If, for some reason, you have found that you have stumbled over and over and over again, this is a great month to try again. Regardless of how scary it may feel, and because of how scary it feels. Because while the overall energetics of this month are relating to survival, desperation, and otherwise, if you have a fear of whether or not you can survive, this must mean that there is a solution for your survival and it has yet to be found..
And for creatives this month, they are likely to find that their brains are wired for survival, especially when they are allowing themselves to remain in a state of creative flow. There is a reason that art has transcended every pandemic, every war, every famine, every genocide over and over and over again. Time and time and time again. There is a reason for this. And so, even if right now you are feeling that there is a sense of urgency that is keeping you away from your creative work, do not allow this urgency to dictate to you what you are capable of making and stabilizing for yourself when centuries and millennia are proof that regardless of what society rises and falls, art always prevails.
And so for you, choose yourself to be the one to prevail. It is through this choice that this energy of survival is able to permeate through your creative works and amplify the amount of support that you receive this month. That is all.
Final Words from Me:
This Newsletter is meant to amplify that feeling because if you’re working in your chosen field while also creating in alignment with what the collective needs, it’s much easier to garner the support you desire, because, somehow, you’re saying exactly what you need to say.
So this Newsletter not only tells you the energies for the month, while detailing themes, motifs, and symbolism that would be beneficial, but toward the end, it also outlines marketing strategies to help attract that customer or that audience! This Newsletter is meant to work in conjunction with the Akashic Creative Renaissance Club, but will work just fine on its own!
So, as you read, take notes on what resonates more with your line of work (remember, these are general ideas — NOT individualized).
Experiment and find what works for you! See how you can shift and stretch to increase alignment and creative flow.
I’m very excited to see your results, so please share them with me!
