APPENDIX B
MAGICAL ORIENTATIONS AND THE MOTIONS OF PROBABILITIES. JANE’S MENTAL CONVERSATION

Yet all of those events seemed to happen in a slightly different kind of atmosphere than before, as Seth’s ideas of the Magical Approach cast their light upon current behavior. Numerous but subtle instances of “magical” orientation kept appearing in our lives. We seemed to catch tiny glimpses of ordinary events before they were fully formed, and to sense the motions of probabilities invisibly but clearly stirring in the over-heated summer air. In the beginning these suggestive events just stretched our imaginations and thoughts, but later they became numerous and persistent so that we had to take them into consideration as we made normal decisions.

The same night I had an experience with a mental conversation [that turned out to be precognitive].¹ I think both instances represent activity and communication … at the magical level. They represent a kind of mobility … a psychological motion, at another level than the usually conscious one.
