Quests galore and missing the spiral
August 10th, 2012 | 
Author: I envy Gwas, he seems to be able to get his quests completed in short order whereas I seem to be collecting them. Maybe he envies me for having such a fine collection? In any case, it was time to take stock. Here are the quests or beginnings points that I have on my map…
- Phoenix and the Philosophers Stone (Seeking the philosophers stone)
- Blue Book of the Emerald Dragons 9 separations (gained on a recent visit to the Emerald Isle)
- Wand Making (Remember this one from about 3 years ago?)
- Energy Double and Greece (needing to follow my energy double to Greece and Delphi)
- Being a native of America(don’t know what I am supposed to do with this one)
- My message (Getting my message out there)
The Wizards Wood
Wow! That is a lot of quests right? It’s not as bad as it sounds. #6 is going well with some radio interviews and getting my message out there. The others though seem to be stagnating, or are they? Surely intuition should decide, right?
Armed with this list of quests I headed towards the only site that came to mind. Alderley Edge. The wizards wood, where I had been named Magician who creates his own world oh so many (well, okay 4) years ago. I arrived there late in the morning and immediately got my dowsing rods out. Was this the place to ask questions and get answers? Yes (hmmm surely I should have asked that before driving the hour to here?). I walked through the wood following my rods and finally arrived at the fake stone circle. What? Here? Yes. Weird! Time for some questions.
Missing the spiral
Was there some kind of order to how I should follow these quests? Yes. Now then, my feelings had been that I had been stuck because I had needed to go to Delphi in Greece to kick start them. Having said that I asked which quest was first on the list?
- The answer I got was1. Seeking out the Philosophers stone.
I was surprised, what about Greece, Delphi. Surely that was the first? The starting place, the place of genesis? I asked several questions around this topic and came to a sad conclusion. I had missed the boat! Delphi had been the first place to go, but the time for it had passed, I had delayed too long and now I had to await that spiral to come again before it would be worth my while to go. Could I discover how many weeks, months, years that would be? No.
Philosophers Stone
Returning to the Philosophers Stone I asked whether there was anything to learn as to how to go about this quest? After a while and many questions I came to the answer that I was already on this quest. Side note: Over the last couple of months I have been perusing everything on energy that I can find. From New Age (er…) to Sufism, to Native American beliefs, Eastern Shaminism (the proper books). Not to mention Religions (there is a lot of useful stuff here if you can get around the righteousness)
This deep research has been to bolster my understanding of personal energy and to inform my theory and practical energy framework. apparently this has also been following the path of the philosopher’s stone. Okay, I don’t mind killing two birds with one stone. But there is more.
My Message
Further dowsing revealed that the philosophers stone was related to my message too. So my message was/is a close second. It sounds quite reasonable now that I look at it like this. Of course I need to know before I can teach. Doh! Anyway it was nice to see that my thoughts of being stale wasn’t the case.
So could I garner any more about these quests? Yes. The third quest to consider was the Becoming a Native of America. This was a surprise as I don’t even know what to do for this quest. Surely I was just to be one? Apparently not! Great (sic) now I have something more to worry about.
I asked a lot more questions about this but wasn’t given any useful information. A whole lot of no, no, no! Fair enough. It seems that there is a temporal component about such dowsing. The more into the future that you go the more un-dowseable it is. Makes sense.
Foundations
Root Energy Centre
So where am I standing? Well, my focus should be on the alchemical secrets of the Philosophers Stone at least for the coming months. This I feel will be feeding into my message. Which will have something to do with being a Native American. How? I have no idea.
On the way back from the wizards wood I was feeling happy. I reflected on the feeling and the answer came from my own research.
The Root energy centre is one that is concerned with the question Where Am I? When it is energised and balanced the person has a deep understanding of where they are in life. It seems that I had found that place. As an aside the Root is also one that is associated with foundations and it is curious that over the last two months I have embarked on a personal quest to bring my estranged sister, brother and sister and their sub-families together. A monumental quest in its own right.
Kal Malik – grounded!

Hi Kal
Sounds like a lot to take on board, but don’t panic luv! I agree with Selwynn – don’t try to rush any of it, or feel pressured to get results quickly. I feel all us spirit/energy workers are undergoing a sense of being on a quest at the moment. I think at the beginning of this year, we sort of received our missions as it were, each one of us, a notch or point of light on the spiral, all interconnected, yet with very individual and taylor-made jobs to do. I know it seems daunting at times and there is a feel of urgency, I grant you, I think we all feel that – could be for many reasons, some personal and some global. But as the saying goes – how do you eat an elephant – you take one bite at a time!
I really do resonate with you over the Native American induction – when I had my Shamanic dream in California on the homelands of the Tumash people, I was initiated into some kind of mystery on that land and I felt so unworthy. How could the native souls of that land want anything to do with me, a white English person, of the race that wiped out their tribe? I felt so humbled, I remember my first response on waking up was to flee into my friend’s sitting room and burst into tears! It’s taken me four years to work out why I was put ‘in the house of insanity’ as I was told it was, so don’t be surprised if it all doesn’t make sense for a while! Kal – thank you so much for your lovely long email btw, which has taken me so long to reply to – my apologies for that. I will get around to replying, but have had so many distractions lately, but please don’t think I’ve forgotten you!

Good evening Liz,
Alas, I gave in to temptation (or was I guided?) I decided to create some energy shifts using Crystal, Moon, Fire and Plant magic. And wow! In the space of one week everything turned upside down (or the right way up as the case may be). Stay tuned for a couple of posts that has me back on the hunt for…wait and see.
Yes, it is curious about the Native American initiation. I look forward to its bringing new fruits into my life. Why did you feel unworthy. We are all deserving of amazing adventures.
No need to apologise re email, it will come in its own time.
Blessings on your day Liz,
Kal
Kal,
Patience is the key word. I know.. I know… It is a hard word at times to say and much less to have at times. But I feel that something really big is in the”offing” for you and Gwas both. I have only been a subscriber to your blogs since the beginning of 2012 and I have been really absorbed in all of the informative adventures you have written about.In fact I have all of your written blogs since I have been a subscriber saved in a special archives so I can go back and re-read and many times relate some of my ongoing experiences to some of your info.I did however miss your blog on wand making I was wondering if maybe you could have a reprint of it?
Either way I am a fan of you both and I do appreciate the time spent and taken to provide us your readers with your blogs.
Many Gracious Thanks to you both!
Blessings of spirit and The 3 Rays.

Good day Selwynn,
Indeed, Patience is a lesson that is continuously taught to me. I guess we all have our Kryptonite and mine is lack of patience. I confess though that I am learning.
Have you ever felt the future Selwynn? Through envisioning where these quests might lead I have felt the future and it does hold wand making. How, where and when is hidden for the moment, but I do feel it is there. So stay tuned on that score because it is going to be tremendous.
Thank you and Thank you Selwynn your readership and company is always apreciated,
Kal Malik
