“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

He is literally a great receiver of energy. He attracts it and it must therefore then go through him, translated into experience outward. He is himself. He cannot turn himself off, or his abilities off. It is only when you make a differentiation, and basically an artificial one, between other natural abilities and psychic ones, that you think of his psychic activities as a conflict.

He has been using the static of physical discordance in the same way. Now many creative people unfortunately do the same thing. On an entirely different level, one of your old favorites, Peggy Lee, has severe physical difficulties that are meant actually to contain her energy and force it along certain lines only.

It is then, again, the spontaneity of his own being that alternately delights and appalls him. I have said little about astrology, yet he chose to be born under that earth sign. (Taurus.) It is one, for reasons incidentally that I will give you at a later time, that brings the flowering of ability in later years, and that also provides, when strong talents are present, a conservative countering measure.

(I asked Seth a long series of questions, though many of them were repetitious. The main one concerned whether Jane’s natural mystical nature had helped her in her times of need; I was most curious to know if this help had been given. Seth replied several times that “the answer has already been given in the early part of tonight’s session, by inference. That is the best answer I can give at this time. Follow the recommendations.” The session ended then at 11:35 PM.
