I believe that now you can trust this prediction: By summer he will have broken the habit for good, and it will no longer be a worry. The various unfortunate effects that seem to be caused by smoking are not caused by the cigarettes so much, as by those psychic habits which cause a personality to seek security within such habitual patterns that become compulsive.
When the inner patterns are broken the effects cease, but the inner patterns are associated by the personality with those outer habits. Indeed, the need for the habits creates the exterior habit. This is almost a mechanistic response that is confining, and indeed detrimental to expansion.
Some personalities need a habit security, and will switch from one habit to another. Ruburt is strong enough now so that this will not be the case. He should keep a close watch upon his smoking now, and immediately after his birthday he should break the habit completely. And I believe he will.
