and other stories dealing with the Arthurian age. In most of the stories

written about him they refer to him as the magician, kingmaker, and prophet.

We also know him as the one that takes care of Arthur from birth, who set

him on the throne, who established him there in the early days of his reign

as king. While most books agree that he knew King Arthur and watched over

him from birth, what was he really, was he a magician with a beard in a tall

pointed hat and long cloak with a magic wand that performed magic or was he

a prophet that could for see the future as portrayed in the "Crystal Cave"

In the "Crystal Cave" Merlin is portrayed as a prophet that can see into

the future with the help of the pattern of crystals in the cave that he

discovered. Here he is not portrayed as a magician but rather it shows us

his technical abilities, like when he moved "Hele Stone" of Stonehenge with

the machine he built, rather then raising the whole stone or causing it to

fly through the air or float across the sea. He is then portrayed as the

"kingmaker" when at the end he is given Arthur

of any person, youth, adulthood, maturity, but into each of these aspects is

the bright youth, the mad prophet and shaman, and the wise elder. All three

a young girl named Ninian. After that Ninian becomes Merlin's pupil until

him, and so his mother thought that giving the child to Merlin would be the

consciousness. His threefold appearance is initially that of the lifetime

channeled the most potent dynamic power, imagery, and mystery of each life

the deep ancient god-form appears, the non-human power behind the semi-human

source for Merlin as a god or titanic power, only a few hints in early Welsh
