“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Our new guest: 15th century, rather a strange itinerary, from Holland to Turkey. A male. Involved in pursuits that took him from city to city and to town to town. To do with musical scores of some kind.

You were separated from your wife for many years, and did not get along well. You resented her as you would have resented any woman. If you will forgive me, she was more a male than you were, in reality, and the Germans to you now still represent arrogant masculinity.

Now. (Pause.) Late 17th century. China. Again as a male. This time of very poor circumstances, but of somewhat moral caliber. The lowest class of merchant dealing however with foreigners in a border town, an outpost.

There is a tendency toward overdependence balanced by a scorn toward those who are overdependent. There are some conflicts still operating from the 15th-century existence, with the result that the male is drawn so idealistically that the real male is found wanting by contrast.

Deepest abilities are not being developed because of the basic rigid attitudes. There is deep distrust of the male, but this is based mainly upon the difficulties in the 15th-century personality. These are projected outward, you see, and then reacted against.
