About the Characters of the Future Humans Trilogy
The main character of the trilogy is Rose, a courageous and bright, multicultural woman in her mid-twenties who was born in the Netherlands, after which she lived and traveled all over the world with her parents, including Southern Africa, Australia, the United States, and Iceland, where her grandparents are living. Rose studied evolutionary biology in New York with a keen interest in quantum physics, cosmology, and systems sciences. She loves to play her violin and had been working in a bookshop in Amsterdam until she became ill. True to her name, she represents a universal symbol of beauty, mystery, grace, and strength—a symbol of hope for our own transformation during times of chaos, death, and breakdown.
The Future Humans Trilogy begins with The Quest of Rose, when Rose is admitted to the hospital with a very serious case of COVID-19. Doctors try desperately to save her life, and she realizes that she may not be able to make it. She reaches out to the Cosmic Mother who returns her to the Cosmic womb of life. The Cosmic Mother offers her the possibility of rebirth through a new cycle of time and consciousness. Her acceptance of this choice catalyzes a metamorphic transformation through which she discovers the Cosmic Keys of consciousness and a rebirth of herself and our world. When she passes beyond the veil, she discovers the Cosmic architecture of the Universe and the immortal digital alphabet of the Cosmic hologram of consciousness. Her view and understanding of reality and the nature of the physical world alter radically.
To integrate her profound awakening, Rose receives essential support from the wise magus Verdandi, her grandmother from her mother’s side of the family. Verdandi is of Nordic and indigenous Sami descent. She comes from a long line of seers, wizards, alchemists, and shamans from the far north of Europe. She has been guiding Rose since she was a little girl, noticing the unusual abilities of the child and her Cosmic potentials for the architecture of a whole new world. Verdandi has the gift of deep insight in what is to come, and how to get ready for it. She instructs Rose in the teachings of the nine Cosmic Keys that her granddaughter discovered during her near-death experience. Each key offers a vital perspective on the Cosmic architecture of life that is essential for the co-creation of the world of the future humans of this emerging new era.
Rose is also joined and supported by one of her closest friends, Sophia, who is a highly intuitive and committed young woman in her late twenties who’s studying to become a medical doctor in the Netherlands. Sophia is of mixed Aboriginal Australian and Dutch descent. She is able to draw from her indigenous ancestral roots to join Rose in her Cosmic explorations of the new era of the future humans.
Then there’s Olaf, Rose’s delightful young nephew who is the son of her older brother Lucas living in Norway. Olaf carries the creative genius of the future human coders of the new world. He understands intuitively how to unfold the Cosmic Compass game that Rose discovered as a means to change the way humans play the game of life on planet Earth. Olaf’s creative mind and purity of heart help us to pierce through all the complexity so we may discover the ways out of the labyrinth.
In book 2, Return of the Avatars, Rose, Verdandi, Sophia, and Olaf are joined by entirely new characters, Li and Diego, as the plot thickens and new dangers loom on the horizon.
