When Daniel told Des to contact his mother, which we assume is Hawkings, we also assume Des is at the same exact time that the rest of the O6 are in when he wakes up.
It could be that he got this message from his dream/memory a couple of months before Hurley gets arrested. Maybe Des does go to Oxford and finds her. He tells her about what Farady was saying and she then decides to go to LA to that monastery and meets up with Ben.
She then tells Ben to get the O6 together and she will find out where/when the island is and how much time they have until the incident.

the patern that the pendulum was making on the table/board is called a axis mundi, if you think back to when Jack, Kate and Sawyer were being held in the cages, the others marked Juliettes back, the mark on her back is also an axis mundi. it would also interest you to google axis mundi,
The axis mundi (also cosmic axis, world axis, world pillar, columna cerului, center of the world) is a ubiquitous symbol that crosses human cultures. The image expresses a point of connection between sky and earth where the four compass directions meet. At this point travel and correspondence is made between higher and lower realms.[1] Communication from lower realms may ascend to higher ones and blessings from higher realms may descend to lower ones and be disseminated to all.[2] The spot functions as the omphalos (navel), the world's point of beginning.[3][4]
The axis mundi image appears in every region of the world and takes many forms. The image is both feminine (an umbilical providing nourishment) and masculine (a phallus providing insemination into a uterus). It may have the form of a natural object (a mountain, a tree, a vine, a stalk, a column of smoke or fire) or a product of human manufacture (a staff, a tower, a ladder, a staircase, a maypole, a cross, a steeple, a rope, a totem pole, a pillar, a spire). Its proximity to heaven may carry implications that are chiefly religious (pagoda, temple mount, church) or secular (obelisk, minaret, lighthouse, rocket, skyscraper). The image appears in religious and secular contexts.[5] The axis mundi symbol may be found in cultures utilizing shamanic practices or animist belief systems, in major world religions, and in technologically advanced "urban centers." As Mircea Eliade observed: "Every Microcosm, every inhabited region, has a Centre; that is to say, a place that is sacred above all."[6]

When Desmond woke up from his dream, which was revealed as a memory, Penny said they had been off the island for 3 years - same as the O'6. Which also means that Dan and Desmond spoke on the island about 4 or 5 years ago.
If Mrs. Hawking is Dan's mother, I don't think he will find her in Oxford. I think he's going to find out she's in LA, and Desmond is going to go to LA - thereby getting everyone who left the island back in LA.
