A little bit more detail on the Standing Stones conference that I mentioned in the forums here: http://www.psychicquesting.com/ftopict-81.html
Andrew Collins has provided a sneak preview of the fascinating topics that he will be covering in his talk. Read on for more details… Continue reading

To support the Green Stone Fund, Alex Langstone has very generously decided to auction one of his last 3 personal copies of Bega and the Sacred Ring (signed) on eBay. All proceeds will be donated to The Green Stone Fund. The auction will start tonight at 8pm and will end at 8pm on Sunday evening (5 day auction). The winning bidder will also get a free signed advance copy of Spirit Chaser (when available later this year).
See Alex’s eBay shop for details:
Another worthy appeal has hit my inbox, this one very close to home (literally!).
Click on the link below to add your voice to the outcry against such an obvious act of madness (not that the Irish government will take any notice).
I passed right through the site over Christmas (my brother lives about a mile away) and they are uncovering some amazing things every day in a desperate attempt to salvage some of the heritage before the machines buldoze everything.
The campaign home site is here: http://www.hilloftara.blogspot.com/ but don’t give them any money – we need it for the Green Stone Fund!
To secure the future of the Green Stone and other artefacts which form the foundation point of the modern revival in psychic questing, psychicQuesting.com has launched, in association with The Questing Consortium, the Green Stone Fund.

The Green Stone Fund Unfortunately, this situation means that these precious artefacts are now in danger of being lost to a private collector and being taken out of the questing community. A consortium comprising of some of the biggest names in psychic questing led by Andrew Collins, and supported by Graham Phillips, has been assembled and their resources pooled. *You will not become part of the bidding consortium. Nor will you receive any entitlement or claim to the artefacts, their location or their availability.* Just to make that absolutely clear, donating will not confer any ownership, of any kind, upon the donor. This might sound harsh but it’s the truth and when you think about it anything else would be a logistical nightmare. HOWEVER, what anyone who donates £50, or more if they wish, *will* be entitled to (apart from good karma and the satisfaction of seeing the artefacts retained within the Questing community) is the chance to attend a special one-off, all-day event in the vicinity of the Swan’s Neck in Worcestershire where Andrew Collins and special guests associated with the Green Stone/Meonia story will host a series of talks and meditations on the Green Stone. As part of this, all attendees will get the opportunity to have a one-on-one session with the artefacts. As you can imagine this in itself is a unique and exciting opportunity but it will only be possible if everyone contributes and the Questing Consortium regains ownership of the items. So please, if you can afford £50 click on the PayPal button on the top left of the screen. Please note that when you donate the money via PayPal *it will be held in a pending status*. Only in the event of a successful bid will I actually accept the payment. Should the bid fail then I simply refuse the payment and it will automatically be returned to you. Unfortunately if I accept the payment from a Credit/Debit Card, PayPal strips off a 3.4% fee (unless anyone can find a way around this) so if you can make your payment at least £51.70 to cover this credit card fee it would be much appreciated. Assuming that the bid is successful we will need a way to contact you so please make sure to add your name and either an email address or telephone number in the comments field of the PayPal form (unless of course you wish to remain entirely anonymous which will of course be respected). Anyone who has trouble using PayPal but still wishes to contribute, please use the Feedback form or send me an email to admin@psychicquesting.com . Heartfelt thanks for your Support, psychicQuesting.com/The Questing Consortium
Many of you will have heard that, following the sad death of Marion Sunderland, some unique and important questing artefacts have come up for auction including the Green Stone,aka the Meonia Stone, and the brass casket in which it was found at the Swan’s Neck on the River Avon in Worcestershire in 1979.
However, as the price is still rising it is becoming increasingly more difficult to keep up with the bids. Thus to ensure that they secure the future of these items for the questing community they are appealing to the members of psychicquesting.com for financial support, and accordingly have set up The Green Stone Fund which is now open to accept donations.
First let me be totally up front about what you will *not* receive when you donate:
It is the Questing Consortium’s intention that the artefacts be kept within the Questing community, in order that they might be employed in future quests or power attunements at sacred sites throughout the UK, and also be made available at public events.
It goes without saying that failing to secure these items, which form the foundation point of the modern revival in psychic questing, will be disastrous for everyone, since they will be lost to the subject forever. It is up to you to get behind Andrew and those who originally found these items to make this a success story that will become a part of history.
Following the death of Marion Sunderland (see news item below), several of the original Questing artefacts have been put up for sale in what must rank as one of the most significant opportunities of recent times. The artefacts include The Green Stone, The Eye of Fire and The Meonia Casket. Please see the "Questing Marketplace" Forum (http://www.psychicquesting.com/forum-3.html) for more details.
Hi, Marion Sunderland, Gaynor Sunderland’s mother (and my mother in law), who was in at the start of Psychic Questing and features in heavily the Green Stone etc, has died. Marion had been ill for some time and eventually died peacefully and painlessly in her sleep at Glan Clwyd hospital at approximately 8.50 on February 4th. Andy
