Was 2024, a year that was painful, frightening, and turbulent in so many ways, truly a year of integration, as Tohar described it in the channeling session on January 1, 2024?
To answer this question, one must look at the broader picture of our shared reality, beyond the events and occurrences that each of us experiences in our personal lives.
To gain the most comprehensive view of our collective reality, I turned to ChatGPT. This revolutionary AI model has extensive access to global information- far more than I do – and a remarkable ability to analyze that information. But before I share what it revealed to me, here are a few words about Tohar’s channeling regarding the year 2024, referred to as the Year of Integration.
In the channeling session, delivered on January 1, 2024, Tohar focused on the transition humanity is undergoing, describing the challenges and opportunities this year was expected to bring. Here are the key points:
- Transition from Old to New:
Tohar explained that we live in two worlds simultaneously—the old and the new. Transitioning between them requires us to understand that the old does not disappear but integrates with the new, necessitating dealing with both aspects simultaneously. - Living with Contrasts:
The channeling took place two months after the outbreak of war. In it, Tohar suggested learning to live in peace with internal and external conflicts. They proposed recognizing that opposing elements can coexist and recommended shifting our approach as part of the transition from old to new. - Creating Integration:
Tohar described integration as a process where opposites begin working together, creating something new. They encouraged us to engage in both internal and external dialogue to reach deeper understanding and foster the collaboration we want and need. - Personal Responsibility for Change:
Tohar consistently emphasized the need for us to change in order to create the transformation we wish to see in the world. This includes recognizing our ability to influence, cooperating with others, and addressing internal challenges. - Love as a Key to Life:
Tohar spoke about the possibility of returning to the “realm of love,” which means living with softness, warmth, and self-support. They reminded us to accept ourselves as we are while working to heal the fears we face.
According to the channeling, 2024 was described as an opportunity to create profound change—connecting the opposing aspects within us and finding new ways to live in harmony with ourselves and the world. The central message from Tohar was that it is possible to create peace between opposites and that personal transformation is the key to broader change.
ChatGPT, how did these ideas manifest in the events of the past year?
- Global Warming and Climate Change:
2024 was declared one of the hottest years on record, with dramatic global impacts: unprecedented floods in Germany and India caused significant loss of life and economic damage, while Australia and the U.S. experienced the most devastating wildfire season, destroying millions of acres of forest. Despite significant disagreements, countries participating in the UN Climate Summit announced new efforts for collaboration. These actions illustrate the call for cooperation and acknowledgment of personal and collective responsibility, while addressing the contradictions between national needs and global interests. - Geopolitics and Wars:
The war between Russia and Ukraine continued, marking a new phase in 2024: severe economic sanctions from the West significantly impacted Russia’s economy while increasing pressure within supporting nations. Meanwhile, secret talks began between Russian and Ukrainian leaders in an attempt to find a diplomatic solution. In the Middle East, tensions escalated between Iran and Israel, but there were also signs of reconciliation between Saudi Arabia and Qatar, including an economic cooperation agreement. These conflicts reflect the constant struggle between the “old” and the “new.” The channeling called for “making peace with war,” recognizing that this phase is necessary before transformative change can occur. - U.S. Elections:
Donald Trump was re-elected as president, leading to intense divisions within American society. While some view him as a beacon of change, others see him as a return to old, conservative ideologies. A new foreign policy began to take shape, focusing on relations with China and Russia while withdrawing from certain global climate initiatives. The elections highlight societal polarization and underscore the need for integration—understanding the diverse needs and desires of different social groups. - Economic Crises and Innovations:
- Artificial Intelligence:
New AI technologies became integral to daily life, including healthcare, education, and security. AI symbolizes a leap forward—a new field with the potential to transform how we live, work, and think. However, concerns about its impact on jobs and privacy arose. The channeling emphasized the need to integrate these aspects, using technology wisely to serve human development while upholding values like compassion, honesty, and interpersonal relationships. - Bank Failures:
The collapse of small banks in the U.S. reignited debates about financial regulation. These banks symbolize traditional economic systems struggling to adapt to changing realities. The failures highlight the instability inherent in a system that continues to operate based on past patterns.
- Artificial Intelligence:
- Calls for Love and a Return to Basics:
Around the world, there was an increase in community involvement and local initiatives, such as cooperative farming and mutual support. Ideas of simple living and local cooperation gained traction. In many countries, including Israel, marches and protests called for promoting love and inclusion over division and hatred. These calls echo the message of returning to the “realm of love”—living with honesty, warmth, and gentleness toward ourselves and others.

Can you already see the relevance of 2025 being described as the Year of Choice?
ChatGPT: “Yes, it is already evident how the events and characteristics of 2024 are laying the groundwork for 2025 as ‘The Year of Choice.’ This year may emphasize the necessity of deciding: do we cling to the old and continue fearing change, or do we choose to embrace the new and live with trust and love?”
