= Channeling from 090108 (translation of the original German version)

= New Beginning

Hello! M= y name is Sonja and I channel Shanandrah, my higher Self, my true Self, and Asclep= ius. This is my first public channeling that I offer for free, and if you hear i= t or read it, it is because you asked for insights and new ways of looking at things, in general and for yourself. I will now be quiet for a moment, brea= the, and I ask you to do the same. After a= short moment I will provide the information. Thank you for participating.

(deep breathing)

I am Shanandrah a= nd I have come from very far to earth. I am truly here and embodied in my aspect Sonja. I am here because it is a very interesting and incredible time on th= is planet, and I would like to share some insights with you. Maybe you are thinking right now, ‘what am I doing here, why am I listening to this?’ A part of you may want to back away instantly, does not want to know what I am saying. But I can assure you that a part of you – a ve= ry important part of you – is ready to hear these new ideas and to absorb this New Energy that I convey, and I also would like to tell you that this energy will lead to many changes in your life, and I know, and you know, th= at you have asked for it.

Today is the 1st of September 2008, and this date is a very important one. Therefore this fi= rst channeling takes place today for all of you who wish to hear it. The 1^=
st of September 2008 represents the beginning of a very new energy, a very new quality on earth, and that is what I would like to talk about in this channeling.

What you can see = on the surface and what you perceive as good or bad, better or not so good, is one= aspect of the whole picture, and is only a part of the whole piece, much like the = tip of the iceberg. I am inviting you, start today, here and now, to take a dee= per look into things, to observe layers under the surface. It is not clearly definable whether this is a deeper insight or a higher insight. Maybe it is just a wider perspective of things, and you will develop a wider and more expanded perception. This will allow you to interpret any event, any information in the media, any inconvenience that could possibly happen to y= ou, in a different and more expanded way. This implies a completely different quality in your life.

Let’s begin= with a small example in your every day life. Maybe you encounter obstacles in your work that are suddenly standing in your way. Maybe you thought that the direction you had chosen would be a lot easier than it really is. And maybe= you are very upset, or impatient, and you doubt your path. You cannot accept yo= ur fate because in reality you would like to do something completely different= . And that is the tip of the Iceberg. I ask all of you who listen in to take a de= ep breath so that you can truly dive into a totally new perspective of this li= ttle example. It stands for many possible examples, and if you can truly dive in= to it, it will help you develop a new perception for many other incidents. So,= you are at work and maybe things do not go as well as usually. You begin to dou= bt yourself, you begin to judge yourself, “Am I not good enough, am I do= ing something wrong?“

If we now expand = our perception, if we stand back a little and try to take a look from the outsi= de, you may see that you are not at all happy with your situation as it is today, a= nd that you are now beginning to take a closer look because of these obstacles. You ask: “Well, what am I really doing here, is this really what I wa= nt, what I like? This slight change in your perception allows you to lighten up= the apparently blocked situation or the inconvenient situation.

If we expand our = vision once more and stand back a little more and look at this situation from a li= ttle farther away, we can see a lot more in it. We can suddenly see that all we = have learned at work is very useful for us. We do not want to miss any of what we’ve learned. And maybe, you also do not want to miss the friends you found at work. You have learned a lot. And now, maybe there are not a lot m= ore new things for you there, and if you try to take a look into the future, fr= om far away now, you may see that this path is not the path that you want to continue. You can see that it would be a dead end. You would be bored. You= r soul would be sad.

You are not here = to walk through the world with a sad soul. That is a very important point, and I would like= to ask you to always recall: Nobody asks you to walk through the world with a sad = soul and run through life sadly. Whoever might say that is – should I say, wrong= ? No. It is an opinion; it is a belief that is anchored deeply in many minds and in many souls, throughout many, many cent= uries. It is a very sad fact that holds you back, to let in your true personality = and you are here, because you wish to be here. And you are here now today readi= ng this text, because you are ready to hear it and to fully let in the fact that… that you are not here to walk through the world with a sad soul. You are ready to let this lie behind. It is really nothing else. It is time= that every single one lets him- and herself dive in his and her self deeply, to = let shine his and her true being. I am full of joy to accompany you, and by doi= ng so, I follow my deepest and truest passion myself. I do not want to save anybody. I also know that I may support you by standing aside, and that is what I truly desire from the dep= th of my soul. I do so because I have the desire to do so, not to impose mysel= f on anybody. Those who are ready will find this text automatically. Therefore by doing something that fulfills my soul, my whole personality on all levels, something that is according with = the wellbeing of my soul – and it took me some time to get to that point – by doing so I am serving my Self and I am serving you, and it is gr= owing exponentially. That is why you can feel, you can feel the energy of my words when I say you are not here to walk through the world with a sad soul. This= is very important, and it is the main topic of what I am discussing here with = you today.

Let’s look = at another example, like your first impression of a news headline from the med= ia. You may hear that a country, maybe a country in Asia= , a very poor country, is plagued by big inundations, and you can see that pa= in on TV, you hear about it on the radio, you read the newspapers. Maybe you think, ’Oh no, how cruel is that! How do these people deserve that? W= hat can we possibly do?’

So, now you have = looked at it from one angle, and I again invite you to open up to an expanded view= , to take a deeper look. These humans have asked for help deep in their soul, as they cannot bear their situation anymore. They have begged for a change, th= ey are tired, tired of living. On the level they are right now in their consciousness, there exist some possibilities, but not all possibilities fo= r them. What I am saying is this: There is a limit to the ways of manifestation the= se people can create in order to bring in a change. And one of the possibiliti= es is a major nature catastrophe. Another possibility some countries and their inhabitants choose is war. In the past this was a very frequent choice, and this will remain that way for some time in certain regions. These people = need change.

Well, that was an expanded vision. Now I will give you- I ask you to take a deep breath in or= der to get into an even deeper perception by standing back even a little bit mo= re again. Maybe these people as a whole group asked from a specific level to o= pen more potentials for themselves, to receive more possibilities, to let go of= old patterns so that new things can flow in. The word “flow” is connected to water, that is why water is a very good way to let go of old a= nd used up energy, of old and exhausted patterns that no longer serve these pe= ople. Now you will say, “Well, what about all these dead people, the orphan= s, these terrible fates?” You need to understand that these people made a choi= ce. Some of them maybe would like to resolve an old karma, some of them decided= to attract an experience in their live that we judge as being bad. Or, what happens quite often in these very poor countries is the fact that the consciousness of many of these people tells them that this is just the way things are, and that one cannot change it. And therefore they find themselv= es in impossibly bad situations, and many of these people find their way out through death. That means they change their shape, return to a non-physical state of being, from where they may embody again - if you wish to say so - = in order to repeat their experience on a higher level and maybe create a diffe= rent path, maybe a (pause) more graceful way, a less dramatic way. And they woul= d be born in a country that may be focused on problems other than huge poverty or catastrophes and so on, as I described it before.

These concepts th= at I am laying out here are difficult for many of you at first sight. They seem to be unsy= mpathetic and merciless. Yet I ask you to dive in and try to see the whole picture.

I would like to r= epeat the same with an example that is more probable in your reality. I just said that many of these people do not believe that – in their consciousness the possibility that it could be different, does not exist, that maybe they could also have enough food, that maybe they are not forced to live nature catastrophes. The same counts for you.

Let’s prete= nd you have a problem, or maybe a situation in your life that seems to have no way out, that seems to be very difficult. You seem to be caught in a situation,= and one of the things you are thinking may be: ’That is just the way thin= gs are.’ And if you think like that, it is like that. =

Now try again, wi= th this personal situation of yours – everybody can find something, some may = find something dramatic or difficult, or terrible, heavy, and some of you may fi= nd a little thing, but take it and ... and look at it, feel how you are feeling = in it. So, now, maybe you tell yourself: “I cannot change it”, or = you feel helpless, you think: ‘That is coming from the outside and it is inflicted on me.’

Okay, now I try a= gain to stand back a little, and I watch my self sitting in that situation, or lyin= g, or standing, how I feel so locked in. And maybe I can already see a little = bit that a part of my strong belief that this is just the way things are, is connected to principles I planted in my life. This or that principle does n= ot allow me to change it. Let’s pretend you are living in a sad and fruitless relationship. Maybe you have been living in it for years, trying = to survive, and one part of your principle says: “I cannot leave this person”, or: “When you have been together for such a long time,= that is just the way things are”, or “I committed myself to be with = this person for all my life.”

They are all prin= ciples and belief systems that you have internalized over a long period of time ma= ybe, or maybe just in this lifetime and they are there because you adopted them.= And I am here to tell you that nobody forces you to adopt them in the future. Y= ou are free in your choice to let go of the principle that you have to endure = this very difficult situation until the end of your life. I tell you that so you= can see your situation from the outside, and you can see that the walls around = you are your own.

If you stand back= even a little more, you may see that the fact that you are remaining in this situa= tion is not supportive to the persons around you, how can I say, those effected = or involved persons. If you take a look from the outside you may see – a= gain referring to the example of an unhappy relationship – you may see tha= t a different path is waiting for your partner, a different path is waiting for= you that is way more constructive for both of you. And that you lose quite a lo= t by holding on to this relationship. And now all of your belief systems come up, and you are getting angry, you are protesting, and you say, “Well, bu= t, one moment please, I cannot just take the easy way out like that. I have some responsibility! I have a little child. Well, one moment please, I have some responsibility here. My partner will not be doing well if I leave now”, and on and on. I am sure that you are throwing quite a bit of these objections at me right now, and that is fine.= It is expecte= d.

Here I would like= to make a statement, that may be repeated very generally in the future, and that I = am just throwing out here and that you need to digest energetically first as w= ell as the two former statements, and that is:

You are responsib= le for yourself. You can trust that people around you are also able to take on responsibility for themselves. I do not say that this is what most people d= o, but more and more are trying to. In the end you are responsible for yoursel= f, and believe me, you will have more than enough work to do with that. <= /o:p>

So, I would like = to maybe shortly repeat these three main subjects of today, how can I say, the main elements or energies that I wish to provide today for your daily life. Real= ly, that is how we begin. We begin with you. You begin with yourself. And you are ready to begin with yourself, th= at is why you are listening in here and receiving these three main pieces of information from me.

First of all: Always try to expand your perception<= /b>. Think of the iceberg and look at the tip. That is completely legitimate. Swear, get angry, get sad and cry, howl. My o my, you are missing so much by not cryi= ng. You miss so much if you don’t cry. And I address specifically... – those men amongst you who entertain that picture of a man who is not allowe= d to cry. Puhpuhpuh. Puhpuhpuhpuh. That is very heavy, heavy, heavy, heavy. And you would give yourself a big gift, not only yourself but may= be those children of yours, and maybe your entourage, by just crying once in a while. So. That is bringing in a flow too, you know, these are water founta= ins too. The wider perception. As soon as you have fully savored the tip of the iceberg, please don’t forget to… mm, go on, and to widen your perception. You also do not want to sit in that swamp of tears. That swamp would not be that flowing water anymore. Yes, it is the balance that you should, can, are allowed to find.

The second statem= ent that I wish to communicate today is: Hu= mans do have different levels. Humans do have a certain level of consciousne= ss, sometimes this can involve a whole group of people, and these people make a choice on certain levels. And this choice manifests itself in physicality with dramat= ic consequences sometimes, because these people at that certain point in time = can hardly manifest a change in a different, easier way, just because of their consciousness at that moment.

For that I would = like to share a personal experience. Sonja who you are listening to, who I am speak= ing through, was not able for example to manifest a graceful passage in the fir= st place in order to make her life turn into the direction she had planned for herself and for her whole being that includes me as much as many other aspe= cts. So she was not able to, mm, create this passage other than through an accid= ent that left her immobilized for a very long time and felt very dramatic to he= r as well as maybe to many who have known her at that time. So. At that time, anoth= er way was not possible. Today at this point in time, Sonja would not manifest anything like that because she achieved a different quality in her consciousness. That is important when looking at dramatic events in the wor= ld or your own dramas. Do also always try to acknowledge that on a certain lev= el you make a choice that then manifests in your life. That way you also loose= n up that victim mentality. Therefore you feel less helpless. You may then see, oh, these walls are mine, because I believe in this or that, and because I do not want to let go of t= his belief, or I cannot let got of it for whatever reasons. But believe me, you= are here hearing this because you are ready to knock down these walls of your o= wn. So.

And the third thi= ng I just wanted to tell you... (long pause), I forgot. It disappeared. Where did = it go? I cannot find it anymore. Well ... ... (long pause). Let’s take a deep breath. The third and last important element of this first channeling that I would like to share is the fact that you are responsible for yourself and that you can trust that everybody around you chose his or = her part in the experience. If that means that this person is left and is suffe= ring, you can be reassured. If this is really your true wish and if you feel that= you can evolve better that way and walk your personal path and heal your soul, = then you can be reassured that this will serve the other person more too then wh= at you manifested together so far. So. These three main statements.=

And you don’= ;t have to puzzle your head over it, you don’t have to rack your brain over i= t, agonize or think over it, you can simply go with the energy and welcome it in your life. That is what I really convey. You hear words here, and you may read words, mm, t= hese are by far not as important as the energy provided, and this work is always only the energy in the end. So,= therefore you don’t have to do a lot. You also just need to know that you are r= eady to hear these words, otherwise you would not have opened the document, or y= ou would not have let it, mm, affect you if you were not ready to hear it.

I thank you for y= our openness. I thank you that you are ready and I invite you to thank yourself= for allowing yourself that… that path, and for allowing yourself to recei= ve this information.

=

I say goodbye and= look forward to sitting together with you soon again, because in reality you are sitting here, even if you will read this later, or even if you will read it soon, in reality you are sitting here with me, in a specific dimension you = are sitting here listening and absorbing this energy.

=

So, that was it for today from me Sonja, my = higher Self Shanandrah, and I will post this written document as soon as possible = in English and French too in my blog. With the time passing by a certain rhythm will be established in which I provide this information, and just check back from time to time. Enjoy your life.
