“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

It could have been a trap, you see. Psychologically speaking, and in these terms only, on certain levels the son desires to replace the father. When the father is vigorous the son is fearful of retaliation. If the son does not understand himself, then when fear of retaliation is removed, particularly if the mother beckons, then a trap is set.

In some respects he is a slightly future version of your mother, already having gained from her experiences. He is a larger dimension of her, a different expression, a more adequate and productive one. Now there are twins in time as you experience it. Twins also appears in different times. Do you see?

As a change of environment affects twins, Twin A becoming something different again through a given environment from Twin B in another environment, so twins born in different times also develop different portions of a basic personality pattern. This is the case here.

This son is basically a psychological twin of the mother, but developing a more spacious personality, and a more giving nature. This one has progressed so well, with indeed little experience comparatively, that he most probably will become an entity of his own eventually.

(“Why are his arms bent?” I thought I had spoken as loudly as usual in asking the question the first time.)

There is also some self-protective device here still operating. The attempt to shield himself, you see, a lack of confidence. (Jane made a self-hugging gesture.) He has made increasing gains. They have occurred over periods of time however. (Long pause.)
