I will here mention Ruburt’s dream, in which he spoke reassuringly to two men who were ill with cancer by telling them that this material said that he too had cancer.

In the first dream Ruburt remembered his earlier death. He was a woman medium in Boston, dying at 82 or 83 of cancer. He was not, then, afraid of death, knowing its true nature, and in the surrounding rooms there were other old people. Two in particular were men, dreadfully afraid of death, and both dying of cancer.

In Ruburt’s second dream he experienced no feeling of dread when he spoke of having cancer, because at the time he was not afraid. He reassured the two. One was a shipyard worker. One was a lawyer in his younger days but due to trouble he died poor.

He threw this thought back to his personal subconscious, but by association it triggered memory of a previous death by cancer, which was then played back through the dream. But even then the reassuring dream came first. In the first dream, he was aware that the woman worked and was constructive until the last, and also that she passed the transition with little personal jolting.

He became worried about the dream only much later, because many other dreams have been clairvoyant in that fashion, and he wondered then what distinguished this dream from the others.

There is also a reason why Ruburt saw the former gallery administrator in the old woman dream, immediately after he perceived the old woman dead. I had mentioned that this woman was known to you in previous life. It is for this reason that Ruburt saw her. However, the elements of the dream were disintegrating, and he saw the woman in the form with which he is familiar with her in this life. The washing machine that he saw is an excellent example of subconscious knowledge distortion and fabrication.

He was bound up with you in the past life and what he did not know then, and he knew much, he has picked up telepathically from you, since the washing machine was a visual distortion of the idea of a ship, which he interpreted as a tub. And from tub he leaped to washing machine, filled with water.

On one level then Ruburt was psychically anticipating winter with its symbolism, and he involved you in his concern. The dream said that Ruburt died once and yet lived again, and that as you survived a leaky old ship at one occasion, so would the basic selves always survive.

I would add one remark. In the dream Ruburt said the material told him that he had cancer, because in a previous life he did have clairvoyant knowledge, through his psychic ability, of his future disease; and since his psychic ability has only lately come to light with this material, you can see the connection.
