“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(This portion is typed up by Jane Butts from notes taken on the spot by Robert Butts. After the end of the Seth session, I suddenly got the impression of a name, Martha. I hesitated, then asked if the name meant anything to anyone in the room; I was sure it did. Venice said that her sister-in-law’s name was Martha. Then I asked if Grandview had anything to do with Martha. Venice said that Martha had lived on Grand Island in Buffalo. With the assurance that this was correct, I went into a trance to see what impressions I could get for the students. When I was finished the results were discussed by the students; they told me what impressions were hits, etc. Apparently about 90% of the impressions were correct. The impressions will be given with a note as to their accuracy.)

(Yes. Venice has a female cousin by that name.)

(Most interesting. This did not apply to Venice, but to Ruth. Her present employer’s wife has white hair, but is young. She lived both in Rochester and Winchester.

(Yes. Martha’s husband, Venice’s brother, lost his life as a result of war wounds. Martha keeps all his possessions together, including his guns and rifles.)

(Venice McCullough and Peter Murtough were witnesses. [...]

[...] (Venice.)

[...] (To Venice McCullough.)

(To Venice:) Does that answer your question?

[...] After the session I told Jane I’d been tempted to ask Seth to comment on the tragic situation involving Venice and Howard McCullough, but decided not to because of Jane’s own concerns. [...] Venice is to stay with the Bumbalos. Venice and Howard sold their house on the same day the cancer was found. [...]

[...] Our Lady from Venice has made some progress, for since I spoke to you last, you finally took me to heart. [...] I am speaking to our young merchant from Venice over here. [...]

Our Lady from Venice over here is filled with questions that she would ask you. [...]

[...] You still fear, as our Lady of Venice, that there is a cellar door... [...]

[...] Tell Ruburt to tell Venice (McCullough) that I will look in on Howard, and ease his way.

[...] After the session Jane called his wife Venice and tried to offer some comfort.

(In a recent deleted session, Seth told us that Jane’s symptoms deepened after she held a session for a friend of Venice McCullough’s a few years ago. [...]

Now the affair with Venice’s friend involved the false prophet idea again. [...]

[...] He also felt that Venice needed the proof of that woman’s complete recovery, and felt that perhaps his own doubts or fears prevented delivery of the particular information that might make the woman decide to live.

[...] Venice’s will or anyone else’s could not stand against that.

[...] There were three witnesses present: Audrey Shepherd, Ruth Chatfield, and Venice McCullough. Only Venice had witnessed a session before.

(After supper Venice McCullough [Palmer] visited us. [...] Venice seemed good, yet was heavier than ever. [...]

(It was 8:20 when Venice left, and we sat for the session. [...]

[...] Attending were Venice McCullough, Shirley Bickford, and Ruth Klebert.

(Venice noticed that the tense changed from we to I for awhile also.)

For Ruburt’s class try the following combinations with the large table: Venice, Paul and Sheryl; Shirley, Venice and Sheryl; Ruth, Joan and Paul. [...]

For Venice, a small note: I believe AA was indeed a family friend when she was very young in this existence.

(This re an entity, AA, received when Jane practices table-tipping with one of her ESP students, Venice McCullough.)

[...] Pendulum said, negative suggestion having to do with some old notes I read, plus not wanting to hurt Venice. [...]

[...] Seth meant Venice McCullough, I realized. [...] Venice’s dream, a recurring one, was related to her efforts to reduce, and had troubled her a good deal, she told us before the last session.)

[...] I am familiar with the inner portions of your selves that you also know, however, but that the egotistical self has hidden from you, and so I must think constantly to myself: ‘Oh, yes, our Lady of Venice [Seth’s affectionate term for a class member] thinks that she sits in this specific room at this specific hour, and is wearing a blue outfit.’

(“But I am aware of a Lady of Venice, you see, in several different manifestations in various existences, all occurring at once. [...]

It is no coincidence that Venice’s (McCullough’s) land borders on Sam’s—for she does not trust nature either. [...]

Venice comes to class, and Sam bought that house next to this one. [...]

A A is a friend of Rupurt’s student, Venice. [...]

[...] (Venice McCullough, at whose home Jane spoke.

[...] particularly to our merchant from Venice who is going to travel afar.

Now, I will bid you a fond good evening—particularly to our Merchant from Venice (to Daniel) who is going to travel afar. [...]

When Venice’s friend committed suicide some time ago, this affected him deeply, for a session had been held and it did not stop the suicide. [...]
