"Departing of the Guides"

Presented at the Crimson Circle
August 21,1999

Note: This channeling was presented at the Crimson Circle meeting in Woodland Park, Colorado at the home of James and Azaya Deuel. Their rural property borders a large national forest. It was a sunny, late summer afternoon with approximately 25 lightworkers in attendance. The actual channeling was held in a large teepee, complete with a fire in the center of the circle. As soon as the channeling began, the skies turned dark and the strong rumbling of thunder could be heard nearby.

TOBIAS:

And so it is dear friends, that we gather together in this sacred energy. Earlier on this day, our friend who brings forth these messages to you - the one we call Cauldre (Geoffrey Hoppe) - came into this space (the teepee) alone to prepare the energy and to invite us into your space. We told him of changes that would be coming. These are changes that will affect your heart, and changes that will affect your Earth. So it is no coincidence that you hear the rumbling in the skies. It is no coincidence, my friends, that you feel the fear of the storm, for this is appropriate. It is appropriate also that on this night we will talk about fears. We will talk of being in the midst of chaos, in the midst of the storm. And we will talk about staying in a place of peace while all of this goes on around you. All things are as they should be. Or as we have said many times before, there are no coincidences.

Now as we have done with this group in the past, we ask your permission to take you to a somewhat different space. You will hear the words. You will know your physical body still is within this circle - in this sacred teepee - but with your permission, your guides and Spirit and those who are your family will take you to another consciousness on this night. Perhaps you will remember afterwards of your journey, perhaps not. But it will allow for a more clear communication of energy, and a better understanding of the love that we have for you. It will provide the opportunity for you to be in a place for a moment of time with the one known as your True self. So now we ask, with your permission given verbally or in silence, that you join us. Take the hand of your guides and take the hand of Spirit and we will take you to another place. We will ask our friend Cauldre to be in silence for a moment.

(Silence)

Now, those who weave the energies on this night - and there are many of them - come into this space with you. They come into this new space that is being created and while this transformational work is being done, I Tobias, will talk the words through Cauldre. I will move the energies through the one known as the Doctor (Dr. Melanie Wolf); and I will quite literally channeling through each one of you on this night.

It has been the theme of the Crimson Council, from the very first, that there are many changes for you at this time. You have recently entered into a new energy. This provides the opportunity to move to a new space. That is what we would like to share and discuss with you on this night.

Now, we ask all around here tonight to acknowledge the presence of nature without fear; to acknowledge the presence of their guides without fear; and above all to acknowledge the presence of your angel - of your True Self - without fear. We ask you to sit here in this space without fear of the storms around you, for this is simply a metaphor for what will be coming in your life. Sit here in a place of peace, even as the Earth shakes and the sky rattles. It is the enlightened human that can do that.

Now, before we continue with the teachings of this night, we will do the final melding of energies at this time. There is one who chooses to come forward to you personally, to touch you, to reunite with you. Be in silence for a moment as you accept this True Self, your God Self, into your reality. For this Self deeply desires to be with you for it has been eons of time since you have been connected consciously. Simply allow the hug to take place. Allow the melding to take place. Simply feel the love. Self-to-Self. One-to-One. Spirit-to-Spirit.

(Silence)

Now, each of you here tonight is in a special place at a special time. We will talk for a moment about where you have been, who you are, and what will happen next. As each of you knows in your heart, you are indeed a grand angel disguised as a three dimensional human. But indeed you are a grand angel. This grand angel will not come from above to reunite with you. It will not come in the night on some grand chariot. This grand angel will simply emerge from within you and you will know that it has always been there.

You have been, each of you, workers in the universe. Not just this universe or consciousness, but in many others that surround it. You have been to many places in many dimensions and have experienced much. Each of you certainly has worked together in these other places. It is difficult to explain in a linear fashion, so think here in terms of a circle. The many experiences that you have had are even occurring at this very moment. It is not just about your lifetimes on Earth. It is about the many, many other identities that you have taken, and many places where you have been.

And so it is that there came a time for Spirit to understand the balances of energies, for the struggle and the wars in the universes had been long and many. And all sides were tired. There did not seem to be a natural resolution so this place of Earth was created. The energies and the patterns of those energies were set into place and this grand thing called duality was put into force. And then there came the call to the greatest of the angels. These were the ones who had experienced the most and endured the most. They came to this place for what we have called the final experience of the First Creation.

And, my friends, those angels are you and the others you share this Earth with. You came here and lived (most of you) many, many lives upon this Earth. But your history, your lineage, goes much further into the universe. It goes into all of creation. This time on Earth has been but a blink of the eye. You have lived under the veil not knowing who you were, not even believing when the great masters came to tell you. When the angels appeared at night you did not believe their words. The duality, the veil, was so strong that each of you continued to choose to return to Earth lifetime after lifetime. You returned for something that would eventually benefit the whole of creation--that would benefit all of One.

We have cried the tears on this night, for we cannot imagine what it would be like to not know of our connection with One. This indeed is the greatest pain. This indeed is what your churches have called the original sin. But it is not a sin. It is an honor that you took on. You agreed to forget who you truly are.

Oh my friends, we look at each of you tonight. And you still don’t realize… you still intellectualize this concept… you have yet to feel in your hearts what this is like. But this day shall come soon.

Now your path on Earth… let us talk of that for a moment. First we must clarify something here, for humans and particularly lightworkers, worry about this. What we are to say on this night is given in our truth and the truth of Spirit. It is not meant in any way to make one better or worse, for as you know, all is One. But we tell you of a special path you have taken, and we will pose you with a challenge.

Of all the angels who came to this Earth, there indeed was a special group. It is the one that is family. It is you, and the other eight million plus lightworkers who are on the planet at this time. There are special attributes of each of you that are different than other humans. Each of you came here with particular energy attributes that are indeed different. If you trace your paths and the paths of other lightworkers, you have been ones who have been very involved in religions in past lives. And spiritual quests in the past lives. And workings of energies.

Now, the other humans that are sharing the Earth with you that are still one with you, they too have other unique energy attributes. But tonight we will speak of yours. Each of you came here with an ability to carry and to hold large amounts of what you would call light. This light was hidden from you, but was connected to the grids of the Earth and the grids above the Earth in order to hold a specific balance. This light crystal light within you and other lightworkers has provided a needed balance of light and a connection between you third dimension and the higher realms. And you have carried these energies well, even though you have not consciously known you were carrying them.

It was known by you and by Spirit that, at the appropriate time in the history of your Earth, it would be time to openly reveal these energy attributes, this liquid light. As each of you knows before we say the words, that this time is upon us. That is why each of you is feeling so challenged in your inner life at this time. That is why you are filled with anxiety and anticipation. Oh my friends, we hear the commitment that each of you makes daily to continue walking your path. For you know deep within you of why you came here at this time.

This place you call Earth is going through a change that you are well aware of. Others around you may not be so sensitive to what is going on, but you indeed know. You are, in a sense, passing through a tunnel. This is a tunnel of dimensions, a tunnel of time and space, a tunnel of energy transformation. You are passing through something that will change the very nature of you first. Then you will help to facilitate the change of others, and then the entire Earth, followed by you entire universe.

This group, this family that is here, your family of lightworkers on this planet are indeed among the first to be going through this. It involves the transmutation of fear within you, first and foremost. And as you do that, as you walk through the fears, you transmute all energies and turn them into an energy of love. This energy will be used to seed, what we have termed before, the Second Creation. Very impressive work that you do here without even knowing who you are!

The biggest challenges that will be facing each of you has to do with fears. These fears will pop up in front of you and within you. We ask you to simply dance through them. Even as the storm approached on this night and the level of fear built within you and you wondered if you should take cover elsewhere, you were able to walk through the fear. You knew it was simply an illusion. You knew you could transmute it. You knew that you were in a safe space.

These fears will continue to come into your life. They will be like weights trying to hold you down by the ankles. At times they will seem to be insurmountable walls that can not possibly be crossed, and certainly not gone through. But, my friends, when this happens simply remember who you are. Simply remind yourself of these words: "I Am that I Am. I Am All that I Am. I am All that I Am and All that Is. I am One".

Take this energy, dear friends, and walk through the fears that are coming into your life. Walk through them quickly for if you stall, if you wait or procrastinate, the fears will build up quickly. The original fear that may have been the size of a stone will now turn into the size of a boulder and then a mountain. Walk through your fears quickly. Remember who you are.

You have been walking a long path in this lifetime. You have endured many emotional challenges. This has been the signature of a lightworker. You have endured many hardships lifetime after lifetime. You have walked a difficult but rewarding and beautiful path, a very colorful path. You have come to a difficult point here. All of these days, all of these lifetimes that you have walked the path, as you know, you have been guided. There have been angels. There have been guides around you. Yes, they have changed but there has always been a group around you.

As you have learned in your more recent months and years, these guides could not do your job for you, but they could whisper words of love and encouragement in your ear. They could comfort you when you felt like giving up. They could come to you at night and weep for you and the tears would wash away some of the difficulties and the pain. You have always had others around you for that has been our job to be your family and your best friends.

We come now to a place in the path where there is a chasm. There is no bridge over the chasm, dear friends. There is simply a deep gorge. You cannot see to the other side of the chasm for there is a fog that surrounds it. You do not know how far it is that you will have to jump. You do not even know, in particular, why you are being asked to jump.

And at this point on your path it is our time to say good-bye to you. Those who have guided you or have been in your company, it is our time to bid you farewell. For we cannot go where you are going at this time. Those who are and have been your guides for lifetimes after lifetimes, your celestial friends who you visit at night, your family who is the Crimson Council, cannot go with you. And this is a good thing. You may ask why this is--why you must take this next part of the journey alone and it is quite simple. It is not possible for you to know your divinity, to know your Godself again if our energy is interfering, if our energy is surrounding. That is why we say good-bye at least for the time being, sending you on your journey by yourself. It is time for each of you to reconnect with who you truly are.

So now the fears come up! You stand at the edge of the chasm knowing not how far it is, knowing not even how to fly at this time. It is time for each of you to do a bit of soul searching, to pull up from within you all that you are, to face the greatest fears that you will ever face and to simply walk through them. All of the intellectual, rational thoughts that you have will not work now. This we give in truth. We have said before to this group and to others, this is not the time to go back to your old bookshelves to read up on how to cross the chasm because it has never been written. This is not the time to go find the security of old words that were read by you. This is not the time to call on your guides. For there is a higher power, a greater love that is yearning to be called up at this time.

The biggest issue that each of you will face is trust. As humans you have not been so good about trusting yourselves. You have learned well to trust your mind. When you have been in trouble you have trusted your guides and Spirit. But you have never been challenged like you are now to trust Self. Oh, my friends, there is no one to turn to at this time other than Self. There are no magic words. Even the grandest of the archangels, many who are here on this night, cannot be here with you when you cross the chasm. The issue is of trust. The challenge is fear. The intent is divinity.

This is a blessed moment. It is a blessed time that each of you will go through. Know that as you boldly walk through those fears. Know that as you call up all of who you are, as you choose in your heart to become a divine human. Allow your intellect to simply guide you in 3-D, but allow your heart to carry you Home.

This is a divine time. Indeed, there will be storms around you. Pay them no attention. Feed them no energy, for you will have little extra energy to give. What each of you will go through will require all that you are. It will mean you need to maximize your sleep so you are sharp. It will mean that you need to balance your intake of foods and drinks so that you are nourished. And it will mean, my friends, as each of you has written on your papers tonight (taking of a previous releasing ceremony) that you release those things that hold you down. And there should be great ceremony tonight when you let the fires take those old energies that have been holding you back and transmute them into new energies that will propel you across the chasm.

We do not give a time frame to this process. It will happen for each of you in a very near time. While you are preparing for this, while the process is under way, you will see many changes outside of you in your Earth first. For the Earth is choosing now to release the old energies.

There will be great rumblings of the Earth in other parts of your world. Many humans will choose to leave their physical bodies at this time. They know at their soul level that they are not ready to cross the chasm. And they know that you will need the balance of energies with them leaving the Earth. They will create a balance outside of your third dimension to supply you with the energies that you will need. Yes, you could indeed say that they give of their lives to help you move forward. They know in their hearts that they are not prepared to walk through the challenges to bring in the divinity as each of you will be doing.

Now, we speak what may be grand words on this night. Some here will not even remember the words later. But we reiterate to you that what we give you comes from the place of deepest truth.

In your days to come, when you feel the energies of fear around you, simply walk through them. Simply know that you can walk through these. When your mind challenges you and asks you who you think you are, let your mind know that you are one with Spirit. And remind your mind that it serves a beautiful purpose on this Earth, but it does not guide and direct your life.

And then, my friends, learn to trust Self. Learn to trust Self at the deepest levels. Do not defer to us. Do not defer to your guides or the grandest of the angels for we cannot help you at this time. You are walking this alone. Learn to bring up the deepest trust. The prayers that you pray when you need the strength should be directed to your Godself.

And the day comes soon that you wake up and feel that all things were pulled out from underneath you. Know that this is simply a fear and a feeling. For that is the time when those who have been around you must back away. It may be a very uncomfortable feeling but remember our talk here tonight.

Remember your family is going through this also, the family that sits in your human circle tonight. Know that someday, those who have been your guides, those who are your Family of Crimson will reunite with you. But you, at that time, will look and feel and be different than the human spirit that sits here tonight. You will be very different.

We love each of you dearly. And we still shake our heads in amazement at the work you have done. Indeed, it is the greatest sacrifice to forget who you truly are. It is time to wake up now.

And so it is.


Tobias of the Crimson Council is presented by Geoffrey Hoppe, aka "Cauldre," in Golden, Colorado. The story of Tobias, from the biblical Book of Tobit, can be found on the Crimson Circle web site at www.crimsoncircle.com. The Tobias Materials have been offered free of charge to lightworkers and Shaumbra around the world since August 1999, the time when Tobias said humanity moved past the potential of destruction and into the New Energy.

The Crimson Circle is a global network of human angels who are among the first to transition into the New Energy. As they experience the joys and challenges of the ascension status, they help other humans on their journeys through sharing, caring and guiding. Over 70,000 visitors come to the Crimson Circle web site each month to read the latest materials and discuss their own experiences.

The Crimson Circle meets monthly in the Denver, Colorado area where Tobias presents the latest information through Geoffrey Hoppe.

Crimson Circle gatherings are open to the public. The Crimson Circle receives its abundance through the open love and gifting of Shaumbra throughout the world.

The ultimate purpose of the Crimson Circle is to serve as human guides and teachers to those walking the path of inner spiritual awakening. This is not an evangelical mission. Rather, the inner light will guide people to your doorstep for your compassion and care. You will know what to do and teach in that moment, when the unique and precious human who is about to embark on the journey of the Bridge of Swords comes to you.

If you are reading this and feel a sense of truth and connection, you are indeed Shaumbra. You are a teacher and a human guide. Allow the seed of divinity to blossom within you in this moment and for all times to come. You are never alone, for there is family around the world and angels in the realms around you.
