“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Jane has her own records of the preliminary data. Shortly after 8 PM, as she was writing poetry after supper, she began to get impressions that made her quite uneasy eventually. They were difficult to put into words, but involved an accident, she thought, and a hospital emergency room.

(“...and a connection with a country store—a madcap driver. An accident near a crossroads. A one-syllable name, man’s, beginning with J. Joe. And a fairly long last name starting with M, of foreign extract, involved. And Peggy and Bill.”

(Peggy told Jane that Gardner Road was in Horseheads, and that she would check the address there that Jane had given in trance. Peg also agreed that she and Bill would be very careful riding their bikes. Jane was much relieved after talking to Peg, saying that before the call she had been “very uptight” over any probabilities involving accidents and the Gallaghers.

(My thought, based on data Seth has given, was that already the probabilities of any such accident had been considerably lessened, merely because the four of us now knew about it consciously. Jane and I hoped that Seth would come through with more information, since the evening was still young.

Now. The accident probability is more closely allied with our Jesuit than with our cat lover, and he has been driving himself too hard.

Such an accident would occur in a period of exuberance, rather than for example when he was driving in connection with his duties at work. In letting down, there is the danger that he would let down too far, forgetting caution.

He should generally watch himself in activities not connected with work, using tools or so forth, for a period of approximately 10 days. There is no need avoiding the one accident and having another of a different kind.

The two lads involved may very well cause an accident in any case, unless actions of their own alter their reactions. There is no connection between them and your friends however, a priori, and there are other elements that could interfere, preventing even an accident to them. They would have been the aggressors, you see.

(“Was Tuesday night the most likely time for the accident?”)

It goes without saying that such an accident would be the result of psychic and psychological forces operating within those involved, and by altering the set as has been done, the previous “results”, in quotes, need not occur.

Our Jesuit would want to hurt himself, and become therefore the victim in such an accident, or be the victim of some kind of one-man affair. The boys would want to hurt others. Unnumbered elements can still intrude to change their probability, even now, however; but the probabilities when Ruburt perceived the impressions were that the event would occur. For the reasons given this is now far less a probable event.
