“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Your own symptom, the hand, representing uncertainty in your work. You felt a shaky foundation. You felt that your talent was giving you but a shaky foundation or basis within economic and social realities.

Anger that your art did not bring you more money. You felt that if your hand were surer you would be better recompensed. You were angry at your talent, wishing it were one that was more quickly recognized in financial terms in your society.

Now all of this operates at varying degrees, you see. The symptom was the recognition of conflict. (Pause.) Rest your hand a moment.

Wait. (Pause, hand raised.) I am concerned over your arbitrary idea of age and advancement in terms of what you should expect at your age. (A point I rather deliberately made during discussion at last break.) This is limiting in concept, and rather uncharacteristic of you in larger respects.
