“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

At times you become jealous of your energies. You fear that direct psychic experience in terms of projections could rob you of the energy you should put into your painting and quite unconsciously, though not entirely, when you are focusing upon your painting strongly with particular inner vigor, then you close the door to personal psychic adventures out of a misplaced jealousy for your art.

You feel that all of your energy must go into the painting at hand. In this way you also close the door unknowingly to additional energy and refreshment (pause), to some extent (underlined). You cannot close one creative door without closing all of them to some degree. I qualified this statement twice on purpose, for naturally your main focus is to be your painting.

However, dedicated psychic exploration of such a nature always brings with it increased intuitional powers, and new energy and a spiritual understanding that can be used then in any creative endeavor. The two go well hand in hand. Understanding these reasons should help you therefore.

I was speaking of psychic endeavors involving projection. Endeavors which you felt involved a greater production or use, rather, of energy. You have been much freer in opening of channels, and passively receiving and becoming receptive to inner information and experience.

You felt that actively going out however, in terms of a projection involved a greater effort and energy, and this particular aspect you had not tied into your art. You may continue with your break.
