“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

MARCH 21, 1966  9 PM MONDAY AS SCHEDULED

(We checked with Peggy this weekend. As Seth said, she did not appear; her planned activities at the newspaper where she works were changed unexpectedly; she was taken out of town Wednesday night, the time of the 242nd session. Peggy was given the assignment in the afternoon, she said, and it could have been around 3 PM; she does not know the exact time. Seth, or Jane, was incorrect on the day however. Peggy was given the out-of-town assignment one day earlier, Tuesday, March 15.

(There was no disturbance at the newspaper through Wednesday of last week, Peggy said, but there was a most definite one, involving the manager and the city editor, on Thursday, March 17. This shook up the whole staff and resulted in a suspension. Since Seth was a day late regarding the change of plan, we wondered if he was a day early regarding the disturbance.

(In the 229th session Seth went into some detail concerning the tax problems of our landlord, Jimmy Spaziani. If Jimmy is having tax troubles we know nothing about it, and have heard no rumors. Since we have seen Jimmy a few times recently we wonder if Jane has picked up any telepathic information. Seth mentioned legal difficulties for Jimmy in connection with a March 15 date. Seth also saw a possible future illness for Jimmy.

(Jane and I visited my parents at their home in Sayre, PA, last Sunday, March 20,1966. We got along well. Following Seth’s recent suggestions, usually given in unscheduled sessions, I have been making conscious efforts concerning my reactions to my parents. The results have been very good.)

I did not tell you this earlier since I did not want negative suggestion to operate. If you maintained good health up to and including March 20 of this year, you were in the clear, and so you are. And for the first time in three years, you are completely in the clear.

(On March 19,1966 I had a long, vivid and involved dream that I thought probably quite significant. Jane agreed and we made what interpretations we could on our own. The dream is noted in my regular notebook.)

You were upset psychically for all of the reasons that I have given you in the past. The subconscious bargain was this: For relative freedom the rest of the year, you settled for a virus that would hit you any time between January and March 20.

March 21st, you see, meant spring to you, and because of your peculiar makeup the illness would only be permitted to attack during winter, or your conception of winter.

(Last year I fell ill on March 24,1965. See the 143rd session in Volume 3. Thus my idea of spring did not coincide exactly with the calendar’s.)

(As stated I fell ill with the virus in March 1965. I was also troubled by a virus in 1964, sometime between January and March; I was not in the habit of noting such things in the sessions then, so have no accurate record. I remember that I was sick three times that winter, each time to a lesser degree. The first two episodes cost me work time of several days each. I do not remember having any thoughts, at any time, connecting my illnesses to the polio vaccines.)
