Testing the limits of a mage can be a very bad idea. Bud’s been mainly sitting the Keerah War out so far. He once sent billions home across two galaxies for a day with a single errant angry thought. So he’s kept his focus on supervising the trainers of new mages. However, the war keeps drawing him in. A bit of magic here, a bit more magic there. And then they found enslaved mages, but it was a dragon thing, and not his responsibility. But genocide is another matter, and he can’t let that stand. But others can, and have, and they’re blocking him from doing what he feels is right. The...

Being an Indigo is like the world hates you. You're born with your karma in your face and manifesting constantly. Find out why, how you're making it worse, and how to make it better. While researching for my book Accrued Karma, I also uncovered a lot of my Indigo writing, and knew that needed to be the topic for Volume 7 of the Wisdom of the Ages series . There is a lot written about Indigos, but very little written by Indigos for Indigos and the people they live with. I am an Indigo, and having done my spiritual healing, this is my offering to help explain being Indigo, and why I think ...

This is a bundle of Volumes 1 to 5 in The Wisdom of the Ages series. It's the complete question and answer section of this series. In 2009, while posting in a spiritual forum, I managed to upset some people with what I channeled about the topic at hand. As a result, the forum owner suggested I start my own thread and let people ask me spiritual questions to which I could channel answers. The thread was called, “The Wisdom of the Ages is available for the price of asking a question”. In calling it this, I was emphasizing that we need to ask, and that asking costs nothing. The thread ...

Karen Drayson knows how it goes. Every time you solve a problem, someone isn’t going to be happy about it. Just problem solving itself has its own problems. But for every straight forward answer, there’s always something more complicated, or more simple. The problem is figuring out which is which. In the end though, you have to do what has to be done. Or you won’t survive the Crumbling Alliance.

According to Jane, Jon’s been ‘phoning it in’ for a long time now. And as they say, you should let sleeping dogs lie, and never poke the bear. So there’s one thing you don’t want to do to a bona fide hero like Jon Hunter. Wake him up, and force him to go to war. Because it won’t be your war anymore. It’ll be Jon’s War.
