“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(To resume: Sue Mullin, now Sue Watkins, one of Jane’s ESP class members, left three questions last night for Seth to answer when possible. Here is question one: “When I project my consciousness out of my body, is my astral body pregnant because I am now pregnant physically? Does the astral body carry the astral counterpart of the fetus, or does the astral fetus remain in the physical body within the physical fetus?”)

(I now asked Seth: “Can you say a little bit about Sue’s first question, about the astral body of the fetus?” Jane had read Sue’s questions some time earlier, but she didn’t know I was going to ask any of the questions this evening.)

The fetus does have its own astral form. Now, this astral form belongs to the individual, the personality as it will be in this life. It is not the astral form that existed in a “previous” reincarnation. There are many complicated issues here and I will try to put them simply.

It helps form the new individual, and then it must withdraw. The new self unit must be free and not hampered by the demands that could otherwise be put upon it. The new individual has a deeply buried memory of its past lives, but the personal consciousness of the last reincarnated self must not be superimposed upon this new identity. The new personality, in its small astral body, does visit with other portions of the entire identity. It is even given lessons of a kind, but it is very much its own self.

It may or may not. It does not have to. It may project to other areas entirely while Sue is somewhere else in her astral form. There is, at this time, however, a very strong connection between the two. On a deeper level, they are aware of their locations. The mother knows where the child is, even though she is not conscious of this. The mother may even go out after the child in a projection and bring it home.
