“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(This was our first session since returning from vacation in York Beach, Maine. Both of us had heavy colds when we got home on Sunday, August 23.

(Jane came down with her cold while we were in Maine. Strange to say, she believes it began on the evening of Tuesday, Aug. 18, while we were dancing at the Driftwood Lounge at York Beach, which is the hotel bar where we saw our projected fragments, described by Seth in the 9th session [in Volume 1], page 43.

Ruburt’s encounter with his father, in many ways, did him good and was largely advantageous. The encounter had nothing to do with his cold, or with yours.

The abandon of your dancing was good for both of you. The indisposition, or cold, came about for a strange reason, based mainly upon the symbolism placed by both of you upon the establishment in which you created the fragments last year.

It became, oddly enough, a place of psychic hominess. Ruburt in particular resented the material changes made there, and felt left out in the cold.

There is more to it than this, but this is the basic reason. The added expectation of cold weather helped.

You will find a spilling over, often, where attitudes and expectations show themselves in various mediums. You picked up his cold for the same reason. Actually you expected subconsciously to catch it. You should now be overcoming it.

(The irony here being that I had been making efforts, consciously at least, to convince myself that I would not catch Jane’s cold, after she developed it last Tuesday. I came down with it, actually, on the evening of Saturday, Aug. 22, while Jane and I were sitting in a drafty bar with her father, in Saratoga Springs, NY, while on our way home. It was a cold and rainy evening.)
