APPENDIX A
THREE OF JANE’S ADVENTURES IN PREDICTION. SETH COMMENTS. JANE’S CONTENTS OF THE MIND.

This appendix contains three of Jane Roberts’ (unfinished) essays on different kinds of “prediction” and precognition experience. Also included is one excerpt by Seth about Jane’s talents with a similar kind of experience.

Rob and I started talking about them as I sat on the bed, and we got ready to retire. I remembered and described three of them, thought there was a fourth, but couldn’t remember it. This is the first time we’ve discussed those paintings in … ten years?

Today before I began work, for instance, I scribbled down ten quick phrases under the heading “Predictions: August 24, 1981.” This took perhaps three minutes or so. [Presented exactly as written by Jane.]

All of that came to mind this morning; not that it couldn’t have just been “coincidence” that later in the day I hear from Ed — after making three predictions that seemed to apply to him. But surely there is a point where feelings themselves are meanings; where the heart’s evidence recognizes intuitively what the intellect must question. And I know that those memories and thoughts were connected with my later predictions and Ed’s letter in the noon mail. I’d been reacting to Ed’s letter before its arrival.
