1. The series of visions that made up my overall perception of the black woman in Jamaica were the most vivid I’ve experienced yet. For me they had a most unique, thrilling, immediate quality, and strong emotional involvement. As I sat at the typewriter in my studio, I was flooded with perceptions of myself as such a woman: Pursued by an armed English military officer, she ran for her life down a hilly village street. She wasn’t especially young. Her — my — name?

She escaped that time, and lived to struggle often against such forces on the island.

(At the conclusion of the 720th session I mentioned the Roman-soldier visions I’d had near the end of October, and added that I would soon go into my questions about them. Before I could do so, however, I had another experience with psychic perceptions three days later — on November 16 — that led to more questions.

Our guest recorded it all and is to send us a transcript [which he did]. Jane plans to quote parts of it in Psychic Politics.² These bits are from her material about gravity and age: “There is a different kind of gravity that surrounds older objects than that which surrounds younger ones, but we don’t perceive this at the level of our instruments. We can pick it up, however, if we know where to look. Age affects gravity … Older objects are heavier. This is ordinary gravity — not some new kind.”

(Here I asked Seth if the strong thrilling sensations I’d repeatedly felt at the time had anything to do with my perceptions of the “ghost images” of Maumee and her surroundings. [...]
