“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

I did not recommend that Ruburt call off the substitute job because he would not have faced this through if he had done so earlier.

(“Yes.” Jane knew that I would have one tonight.

I am not sure. Holding onto, reaching out toward, with some urgency. An unassailable position. A Q. A great deal of fuss. A small rectangular object, perhaps of metal, with numbers upon it. Such as, for example, a small license plate, that would carry numbers and notations, and be metallic and connected with travel. And the color orange and black, and an automobile perhaps.

(“and an initial—initials—I believe three, J A B.” Jane believes this refers to herself, and if so it is a strong connection with the object of course. Jane has no middle name now; her name used to be Dorothy Jane Roberts but she dropped the Dorothy when we were married 11 years ago. She chose the saint’s name of Ann however, as a Catholic girl at about age 12. But she puzzled over why the A would crop up now, since she never uses it. Nor did she particularly.

(“Connection with three people and a fourth, separated.” Too vague. Jane said one interpretation could be that we know three other teachers personally; the fourth, separated, would be Mr. Clauss whom Jane met twice perhaps a couple of years ago. I have never met him.

(“Piccadilly Square.” We don’t know. Piccadilly Square, London, England, might refer to the fact that a professor at Elmira College, with whom Jane would like to work as an assistant, teaches English Literature and specializes in Victorian English. At this writing Jane is to hear from him any day about the job.

(“A center upright.” Jane said this is a reference to the fold in the object, made when I inserted it in the double envelopes. See page 141. Note that Jane held the envelope to her forehead in a horizontal position, as she almost always does; this means the fold in the object would be vertical in relation to the long dimension of both the object and the envelopes. The long dimension of the folded object paralleled that of the envelopes.

(“A C and a J.” Jane said this is valid data, if not as good as we would like. The J refers to herself. The C can refer to either Gene Cesari, an assistant dean at Elmira College, or to Bill Cieri, of the public school night-course system. Jane also cited the similarity in sound between Gene and Jane.

(“A small rectangular object, perhaps of metal, with numbers upon it. Such as, for example, a small license plate, that would carry numbers and notations, and be metallic and connected with travel. And the color orange and black, and an automobile perhaps.” All of this refers to Jane’s taking a taxi to the various schools in town, whenever she was called. I was not available to take her, having already left for work except on the first occasion. The taxi she used was orange and black.

(8th Question: What does that call and the color black refer to? “Ruburt has a phone connection, of course.” Jane had to have a phone put in for the teaching job, since she would be on daily call. She insisted on a black wall phone, in the face of the company’s efforts to sell her more expensive colored phones, etc. We regard this as good data.

(11th Question: What’s the 1963 mention? “I do not know. Connection with a past incident at about that time, and a seeming connection with a 1967 incident yet to occur.” See the 1963 data on page 147. As stated the date could very well refer to the time Jane lectured a class at Elmira College on poetry. The connection would be the teaching activity as related to the envelope object.
