SESSION 175

(Once again the session was held in our quiet back room. Both of us felt somewhat tired, but attributed it to the weather, which has been cloudy and oppressive for the past few days. Jane and I try to ignore such factors consciously, but have no doubt we feel the psychic effects of weather as much as anybody else.

(Jane spoke while sitting down and with her eyes closed. As in the last session her voice was very quiet and clear, and she used many pauses. We hoped to obtain more material on dream therapy. She began speaking at 9:01 actually.)

I see that we will have another quiet session.

(Jane took another pause. This one lasted a minute and a half by the clock. She sat quietly, eyes closed, her hands folded in her lap. It is probably as long a pause as she has taken during the sessions. Finally she resumed speaking, her voice quiet as before.)

We will have an extremely brief session, as I can see, for various reasons, no important ones, we are falling short for this session. Or you may take a break and we will try again. We simply have a poor connection. The reasons have nothing particularly to do with any of the three of us, and occur very seldom. The conditions indeed are rather interesting in themselves, and will be discussed now or later.

(Break at 9:18. Jane reported that she was dissociated as usual for a first break. She was as surprised as I was that Seth had announced a poor connection. We had no conscious ideas as to why this should be, and indeed this was the first time this problem had come up during the sessions.

(Jane elected to try to continue the session, since she felt all right. She resumed in the same quiet voice, though with a faster pace, and with her eyes again closed, at 9:25.)

(Naturally I wondered about this, and whether it was worth continuing the session under distortive conditions.)

Theoretically, if they affected Ruburt’s ability to translate the material. There are no distortions in this evening’s session, such as it is. You have felt the effects of these conditions, and they have been felt by others. They are like pockets, and are not uniformly distributed.

(Jane said the above is the kind of material she would have blocked in earlier sessions as soon as she felt it coming up, although occasionally she has allowed it to come through. One instance of such data checking out concerned the Provincetown and Bill Macdonnel material of the 68th, 75th, 82nd, 83rd, and 84th sessions.

We will now close a very brief session. My fondest regards to you both.

(For data on my other sensations and some visions, see the following sessions: 22, 24, 26, 27, 65, 145, 146, 163, 169. Nor do these include the enlarged hand sensations that Jane and I have experienced during sessions.)
