“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(Del’s mother, Mattie, died perhaps 19 or 20 years ago.)

Ruburt would do well, in fact, to speak to Mattie sometimes mentally.

He wanted to join both Mattie and Dorothy. (Dorothy, Mattie’s sister, died a year or so ago at a very advanced age.) His emotional direction however was always with his mother. He had been a woman, and Mattie a man. Mattie had owned him. For a good deal of this life, while loving her, he depended upon her for handouts, and refused to set himself up independently to point out the old relationship when he was forbidden independence.

Now you may end the session. My heartiest regards to you both. Remember to have Ruburt speak mentally to Mattie. Her thoughts are turned somewhat in your direction because of events.

(“Okay.” I never met Mattie. I was still writing. When I looked up I saw that Jane was out of trance, her eyes bleary. I said good night to Seth quickly, but I was too late. “It’s me,” Jane said. I also forgot to note the time the session ended. Approximately 11:10.

(We have no idea to whom Seth might refer when he tells us that another member of the family from the west coast might soon join Del, Mattie and Dorothy. Mattie has a sister, Maude, also elderly, if still alive. Actually we don’t know whether she still “lives” or not. Maude has a daughter, Ruth Dudley, a little older than Jane, we think, and she in turn has children. Jane said there are also assorted cousins, etc. out there whom we haven’t met, so there is still evidently quite a family group extant.
