Your both wrong - try again :D
Well you've stumped me...
Ok I will help you a bit, focus on this "I never die. I was there before the beginning and I will be there after the end. I bring both life and death"
My only guess is energy?
I'm being dense today, it took me a whole minute to figure out the maid one.

Can't be energy, energy can move backwards both in the figurative and literal sense. Also makes too many of the hints true by being inapplicable to 'energy' (such as not speeding up or slowing down. )

EDIT: also removes light, fire, warmth, shadow, darkness, nothing, everything and void.

A knight and a dragon live on an island.
The island has seven wells, numbered 1 to 7 - the water from each well is poisoned.
The poison from one well can be neutralised by drinking from a higher numbered well.
Well number 7 is atop an unclimbable mountain, so only the dragon can reach it.
One day, the knight and dragon have a duel. They both bring a glass of water for the other to drink, and after that they are free to do as they please until one of them dies.
Only the knight survives.
What happened?

What happened?
He gave the dragon water from well number 5&6?
Then drank some of it himself?

Okay, recap...

It is conscious.
It never dies
It moves mountains
It was there before the beginning and will be there after the end.
It brings both life and death.
It always move forwards and never back.
It don't speed up or slow down.

Honestly, I can think of nothing in the literal or conceptual sense that fits all these.

July, assuming he's naming them after months with 31 days in them.
hehe, no the answer is charlie :)
It's the simple ones that get me in the end!

@claymorez: If the answer is somehow God, I would like proof.

Energy can't move backwards because it doesn't have a front or a back. It just moves.

Death isn't sentient dumb-dumb
Also, God is all it can be I think, which is why I didn't think of it.

Doesn't move mountains. Doesn't give life. Thoughts themselves aren't conscious but rather are an indication of something being conscious. Thoughts can move forwards and backwards, visiting familiar topics.

Ok let me think - sorry its just from my view point its obvious and i am trying not to ruin it.

Think of these as a description:
It is conscious.
It never dies
It moves mountains
It was there before the beginning and will be there after the end.
It brings both life and death.

And these as rules (don't take them so literally):
It always move forwards and never back.
It don't speed up or slow down.

If you dont get it soon I will tell you
