The Quest of Rose: The Cosmic Keys of Our Future Becoming is the first book of the Future Humans Trilogy series. Written as an allegory, The Quest of Rose guides you through an experiential transformation journey that weaves together real-life events that are at the forefront of what’s happening in our world right now, with cutting-edge insights from the new sciences, indigenous wisdom, and consciousness teachings for discovering the greater possibilities of our future becoming. Already referred to by many world-renowned luminaries as: “a masterpiece“, “epic and unlike any other“, “one of the most important books of our catalytic time“, and “a true gift to humanity.”

The Quest of Rose offers the promise of a possible future through nine Cosmic Keys and twelve transformation practices for developing your future potential of a new era. In the words of Lynne McTaggart’s foreword: “The Quest of Rose is ultimately a work of profound hope by offering a powerful new definition of ourselves and a vision of unlimited future possibility. But this trilogy also means to be an incitement to radical transformation. And there may be no turning back. Once you are caught up in Rose’s revelations and begin to understand the deep truths within them, a new way of your own being must be born. Allow this brilliant new story to unleash the imaginal cells of your own extraordinary potential and become the future human you were always meant to be.”

The Quest of Rose is so much more than a book, through it you embark on an experiential journey that will shift your consciousness to the new and ancient possibilities of our future becoming. You’ll join the quest of the future humans of a new era, which is really our own quest into the heart of reality to discover the fundamental unity of life
