We welcome you in this New Year. In this year which has a bit bigger and a bit deeper energy than last year. It’s kind of like repotting a plant into a bigger container. In the same way you are invited to be in this bigger space. In this bigger, deeper space that holds you so lovingly; that makes so much more New possible, that invites you to let so much more New flow.

And if you would like, take a moment in order to arrive in this New Year, in this new space, in this Now moment. To no longer resist what you are feeling, what is in your life, but simply be with it. Turn lovingly towards your life. Turn lovingly towards yourself and all the things, all the energies that are within your life. Are you able to turn lovingly towards them?

There is nothing for you to do, nothing for you to change. There is no obligation you need to fulfill. You are simply invited to be here and to feel again this deep love that lives in each moment. This deep love that is at home deep within your life, within your body, that lives within your soul.

***

You see: life is not something random; something mysterious that takes place somewhere outside of you on another level – but life comes from the same love, the same source as you come from.

And many humans keep their lives separate and keep themselves separate from this deep love that they come from. They have forgotten their source and because they have forgotten their source they don’t know anymore where they come from or where they are going.

And today we want to invite you to perceive again where you come from. We want to invite you to perceive this deep source within yourself.

You don’t have to go off somewhere to perceive it. You don’t have to concentrate on something to find it. But simply be still, simply be in this Now moment, in your body, with these feelings in your life and as you allow yourself to be here, allow yourself to sink into this love you shall discover your point of origin.

Just like a prince or princess who let themselves reclaim their royal birthright, return to their royal home. Just like this you may let yourself sink into your source, without giving it a name, without analyzing it, without judging it but simply be with it. Simply be with the fact that you are more than a lost human full of fear and despair who doesn’t really know why you’re here or how you’re supposed to live your life.

You may let yourself sink into your true source and feel how much love surrounds you, how much love wants to touch you and hold you. There is nothing to do except feel your true source, your true home.

Most people flee this Now moment because they don’t want to feel their home. They don’t want to become still because then they would feel themselves. They don’t want to feel themselves because then they would sink deeply within. And they don’t want to sink deeply within because then they would feel this infinite love.

***

Some might call this infinite love the Love of God. But we don’t mean the kind of god that hovers around on a cloud with a white beard and a white robe. What we mean is the deepest love that exists within all things, the deepest truth that exists within all things, the deepest purity that exists within all things.

And each plant, each animal, each human being and even all things carry this god within; carry this deepest truth, this deepest love and this deepest purity. And the more you let yourself sink into this divinity, the more you let yourself sink into this soft, warm nest that god provides for you - the more gentle, the more loving, the easier your life will be.

And the more you flee from the Now moment, the more you judge your Now and say that your life is not good enough or you are not good enough or someone else is not good enough – the more you wander from this purity, from this love, the lonelier your life will be, the more lost you will feel.

Like a prince or princess who reject their origins, who dress in the rags of a beggar and soon forget where they come from, what they know, where they are going. And who then begin to search for something that they no longer recognize.

And so we invite you – the little prince, the little princess that you truly are – to return to the love of god, to your birthright, to your true home.

Because only here, in this moment, in this love that wants to hold you, only here can a truly creative, abundant and natural beingness arise. Here, in this center, in this safety and security it arises by itself. Because all that you are and all that you have been – the deepest love within you flows here in this center, in this purity, in this safety and security, in this Now moment. Here is where this divinity is hidden that you have been searching for so long. It is hidden here in this moment.

And there is no lengthy spiritual journey needed to find your way back to this divinity, to encounter your divinity again. You don’t have to follow “steps”. You don’t need to understand it with your mind. It’s enough to enter into this Now moment. This Now moment. Because in this Now moment your divinity is waiting for you, this safety and security, this deepest love is waiting within you.

And we can say that the love of god is like a loving Mama. And we can also say that it is like a loving Papa who wants to be there for you. We call them Mama and Papa in order to make it easier for human understanding but the true love of god goes far beyond Mama and Papa. But “Mama” and “Papa” is a place where you can start, where you can begin to feel this love that wants to be there for you. To feel this warmth that holds you, that carries you. And there isn’t anything that you have you to do other than be in this Now moment.

***

And here is an interesting fact: only a very few people are really here in this Now moment. They are off somewhere, but not here. Maybe they are off in their thoughts – thoughts about what they’ve done or thoughts about what they still have to do. Off somewhere in their thoughts about yesterday or tomorrow.

Some resist this Now moment because they don’t like their job or don’t want to look like they do; they can’t stand the way they are and want to be different. Others are so sad and feel that it hurts too much. There are too many injuries, too many wounds, too much grief and so they would rather not be here. They would rather go off somewhere else where it’s not as hard, where they can’t get hurt, where there is no sorrow and everything is fine.

Again others are so angry with their Now moment because they feel imprisoned; they feel so frustrated with their life. They are so angry that things aren’t the way they want. And this rage keep them from being truly here.

And so I invite you to perceive which kind of escape you use in order to flee this Now moment. Which form of resistance do you use so that you don’t have to be here, so that you don’t have to be in your center, in the flow of your life?

And this isn’t about judging yourself or making yourself feel bad. But it’s about realizing for yourself. Realizing for yourself how you escape. And maybe even realizing what frightens you the most about this Now moment.

Some don’t want to be here because they feel that it’s too stressful. They believe that they always have to be doing something; accomplishing something, improving something. And even thinking about it is so exhausting that they would rather not be here.

Others believe that it is dangerous to be here because they can be hurt, abused, rejected, ridiculed and punished. And because they are so afraid of being hurt they would rather not be here, rather not be present. They would prefer to step back and watch their life from a safe distance.

Still others feel that something terrible will happen if they are fully here. And even though they don’t really know what it is or what it would feel like, they have this fear that something will happen that they can’t understand or control so they would prefer to stay away from this Now moment. So they keep a distance from their body, from this center within, from their soul and even from what we call their divinity; this pure, loving, cozy something within that simply wants to hold them, that simply wants to be there for them.

And today we want together with you to become conscious of this distance. This distance between you and the Now moment. And we ask that you do not use force to bridge this gap. That is much too hurtful and much too stressful. But we do ask you to simply be with this distance, to meet this distance, this fear within you lovingly. To no longer act as if it’s normal to have this distance but to feel that you can lovingly meet this gap. And the more time you spend lovingly being with this distance, with this fear, this injury, this disapproval of your life, the more this distance will melt. Not because you’ve forced it or struggled with it but because it does so all by itself.

Allow yourself to feel: the royal children that want to return may consciously choose to realize how far the distance is between them and their home. They may perceive lovingly how many steps, how many meters or kilometers they have wandered away from their home. And as they realize this, as they begin on their way home, on their way back to their center, they will sink into the safety and security, into the stillness, into the divine love that is living within.

You may allow yourself to reclaim your birthright, to return to this deep love that holds you within.

Your mind can barely grasp what we are talking about. Your mind hasn’t the capacity to imagine or figure out what we want to show you today. But you have the ability to feel. A feeling is a much simpler way to know. To know that it’s time to take another step towards home.

***

And the princes and princesses that return home are no longer the same as when they left a long time ago. They have changed, they have grown. They have had so many experiences and gathered so much wisdom during this time. And so they return home as adult royal children; ready to be here, ready to accept the love of their home. They return with awareness, with maturity and a deep inner dignity that wasn’t there before.

And maybe they didn’t actually leave because they had made a mistake, because their soul turned them away or they were expelled by god, but simply in order to prepare to return.

They left because they knew they lacked experience, depth, maturity, and couldn’t quite cope with life yet – that’s why they left. They didn’t want to inherit the throne that they were entitled to just yet. They wanted to develop their special gifts that were important for them, that are important for you.

And so I invite you to feel that you are on the verge of this return. And it is appropriate to feel that everything within you is longing for this love, for this home, for this safety and security. And now it is truly time to gently return to this safety and security and this Now moment.

In this way you return to your divinity, to your home, to your royal palace. Whatever you choose to call it, however you choose to envision it. The next couple of years will be a time of returning and the remaining period of separation will become less and less.

***

And for those of you who worry about this date 2012 and who wonder why some of the old calendars end at that time – perhaps you can imagine that these calendars have measured the time of separation, the time of duality, the time where you have been disconnected from yourself and now this is slowly coming to an end.

And no disaster will occur as a result. It is a natural progression. It is something that will happen all by itself during the next couple of years. Each of you moved away from home at your own pace and each of you will return home at your own pace.

And there is no need to compare yourself to others. It doesn’t matter. As all flowers blossom in their own time, all human beings will return home in their own time. No one does it better or worse or more perfectly. Nothing can go wrong. You don’t need to know any special technique, any tricks or tactics.

Quite simply: the more you accept that this development wants to happen and that right now not many outer things are as important as this inner return – the easier it will be for you. The more you trust this deep divine wisdom within that shows you that you are on your way home, on your way to your center, into this love, safety and security – the easier it will be for you. And your mind doesn’t really understand where you are going. And maybe even others around you don’t understand where you are going but that’s okay.

And the more you feel: I am arriving home and I don’t need to be afraid of it, then the more you can relax and enjoy it. Because in a way not that much changes when royal children return except that they are at home again. A deeper calm, a deeper stillness, a deeper contentment may occur. There might be more energy flowing within your life, more creations may grow. Your body can come into a deeper balance.

Being at home is just a different feeling than being on the road. But the one that you are, your uniqueness, your personality remains. You don’t have to be afraid to lose yourself, to dissolve into a “divine soup”. You will still be there. Maybe you will be a little more contented, a little calmer, a little more loving. But you will still be there.

***

And so these are some hints for where we are in this moment. And this year 2010 opens the door to return home even a bit more. And those of you who find themselves already on this path of the soul, on this way home – you will perceive that this year will become a bit easier still and that a bit more love from home will be tangible. It will bring along some changes but overall a greater depth, a greater stillness, and a greater peace.

And so we invite you to feel, to feel this path of your soul that holds you, that carries you and will lead you back to a loving home within, a stillness and peace within. Without having to do anything for it, without changing anything for it happens all by itself.

These insights are so easy and so simple that some people will ignore them because they seem too obvious, too easy, too simple. And some people who still play a lot in their minds will continue looking for something more complicated. They believe that there must be some special technique, some tricks or tactics that they have yet to find, that they have yet to learn. And they believe that they must still complete something, change something, improve something in order to be allowed to return home.

But the truth is: the door, the door of your home is wide open and there is no labyrinth, no obstacles, no barriers at all. There isn’t anything that you have to conquer on the way back to your home.

It’s only about letting yourself follow your own path; letting your own resistance melt, letting yourself become soft. That is the only thing that wants to happen within this New Year; more depth, more stillness wants to come in for you all by itself.

And you are invited to feel that while the doors of this New Year are opening – they open for this earth also – more stillness, more serenity and more love will be possible where we all live. Because as each single human being returns home, this earth returns home also.

It is a deep inner homecoming, a deep inner change that wants to happen because for a long, long time this earth was a place for human beings who had left home to act out every experience possible. And gradually this planet is transforming to a place that accommodates human beings who are at home within themselves – and what a peaceful planet that is, what a deep, wonderful stillness she radiates!

And we invite each one of you to perceive this new earth, this new earth that wants to be a home for you and no longer a place where you wander searching, feeling homeless, abandoned and alone. A new earth where you feel at home, cared for, provided for; that simply gives you support and safety.

And we invite you to perceive this new earth, to accept this new quality of the earth for yourself and for your life and to celebrate that along with your homecoming the earth will become a new home. A new home not only for you but for every human being; a place of peace, a place of stillness, a place of safety and security for each and every one of you.

And so we invite you to take a soft, loving breath and to accept this New Year with all the gifts that it holds for you, with all that it wants to offer you.

Because for most of you the hardest part of this journey is already over. And now you may let yourself experience a little more peace, a little more stillness, a little more contentment on your return home.

That is the love, the gift that is here for you on your path if you would like to accept it for yourself.

***

And so we let our time for today become complete. We shared something with you that will only be fully revealed as days go by. We chose a language that you can only understand when you are ready to feel and to perceive. And the more you are ready to feel, the more you will perceive how easy it all is.

And so we come to the end of this gathering. Our love accompanies you on your way home.

About channeling:
Channeling is about receiving energy. It is an invitation for you, dear reader, to open for more of yourself and become more conscious. As you read this text you are most welcome to decide for yourself what feels right for you and what doesn’t. There is no such thing as an absolute truth that is valid for everyone. There are many truths and you may choose the one that resonates with you today. On your path of spiritual awakening this may indeed change. Sophia’s extends her love and support if you wish to receive it, right where you are in this moment - you don’t have to do a thing in return.

About Sophia:
Sophia is a feminine energy supporting the awakening and evolution of humanity with her understanding and wisdom. Her messages are simple and profound. Lea Hamann has been working for some time in her personal and professional life with Sophia’s energy. In 2007 Lea started to channel Sophia publicly. Sophia has accompanied us since then in monthly channels called the Sophia-Series. She assists us in rediscovering the feminine energy of our soul.
Feminine energy doesn’t necessarily mean being female. Both men and women have a feminine part of their soul. This feminine principle helps us to receive abundance, to develop our creations and to live our life in deep trust. In today’s world most humans have a tendency to be imbalanced as they rely much more on their masculine energy. Sophia has emphasized many times how important it is to be connected to the feminine energy in order to enjoy a loving and balanced life.
The monthly channels of the Sophia-Series are available free of charge on the website www.eelea.de You are invited to let yourself be touched by Sophia’s love.
