Stalking, the Four Moods

The Four Moods of Stalking, also called the Four Steps of Stalking are eluded to in some places and elucidated in others. Here I have gathered a few pertinent quotes.

I am trying to embody the four moods of Stalking (Silence, 67-68) where:

  1. Ruthlessness should not be harsh.
  2. Cunning should not be cruelty.
  3. Patience should not be negligence.
  4. Sweetness should not be foolishness.

These four steps should be practiced until so smooth they are unnoticeable.

  1. Be ruthless but charming.
  2. Be cunning but nice.
  3. Be patient but active.
  4. Be sweet but lethal.

It can be said that it is important to do the following (Silence, 110):

  1. Have the courage to be ruthless without being self-important.
  2. Be cunning without being conceited.
  3. Be patient, yet take action.
  4. Be acquiescent without being stupid.

Some of these moods are kinda foreign to me and I am trying to find examples in my waking life, asking spirit to guide me.

There’s a whole chapter in The Power of Silence dedicated to the topic of “The Four Moods of Stalking” (60).
