“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

The promise in the dream made by you, that the events (of Jane’s great flexibility)were indeed happening, represented your inner knowledge that he would make it now, and his own realization of the fact, as well as the body’s acknowledgment. The first part of the dream involved excellent physical release and manipulability. The second part concerned new rooms, all rich avenues open to him, both as a result of the release and yet bringing forth the release. The rooms represented exploration, new areas of creativity in which he is even now involved.

There is always a reason, and so each parent will represent to each child an unspeakable symbol, and often the two parents will represent glaring contrasts and different probabilities, so that the child can compare and contrast divergent realities.

His parents represented two extremes. His mother represented will untempered by spontaneity or relaxation, quite frankly a will for power over others. She made other people supply her wants, and was a despot. She was filled with energy however, and purpose.

Ruburt’s father represented the other extreme, with no firm purpose, seemingly driven willy-nilly, and accomplishing nothing. Both parents could be highly destructive, however—Ruburt’s father when he was drunk, and Ruburt’s mother generally.

Now he is free to appreciate and use the energy shown to him by his mother in condensed dramatic fashion, tempered and freed by the free-flowing air of the father, and the physical mobility and sense of exploration that he represented.

Your father represented what you thought of as the secret, isolated creative self—more or less at odds with the world, unappreciated by it in family or financial terms; the alone, artistic self you thought unable to communicate, inarticulate and dumb, locked away from close communication with others, and indeed barraged by misunderstandings because of its very creativity—emotionally frozen, afraid to show itself.

Your mother represented the opposite in your mind—the emotionally explosive, suffocating immediacy, a female life and earthly ties, social commitment, homey chores and distractions that seemed to be directly opposed to solitary creativity.

Loren and Dick also chose the situation. Each parent also represented opposites to them—but different ones, and so they saw your parents differently. Do not lose contact with Dick. He is more like a son to you and Ruburt than a brother or brother-in-law.... I want you to see that all of this makes more sense in many areas than you may have realized. Ruburt’s physical state is assured. Forget the day-by-day patterns. He will be free of them so that nothing is noticed at the worst. At the best he will establish a condition of extraordinary flexibility—which is still up to him. But the beliefs have changed enough so that the improvements will come and the walking will be remedied.
