“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

Now. My regards to our friend, and please give us a moment. (Pause.) Now as to your picture of your sister, a period approximately six months distant and the probability of a bathroom tumble, that can be averted if no small rugs are used on the floor. This includes rubber-backed rugs.

There was some distortion in your picture. The tumble will not occur if no rugs are used. For safety’s sake I would suggest an eight-month period. No severe (underlined) difficulty would result in any case, but an ugly bruise (pause), I believe by the right ear, and some twisting of a foot.

I believe the purchase of a new rug for the room would be involved, and she would slip upon it. Now this probability can be averted in the ways given. Leave the floor there uncluttered. There seems to be a possibility that I do not understand, where for one reason or another newspapers might be laid upon the floor, in that room. Perhaps beneath dripping clothes.

Men here with rug.

[...] In order to keep up with it we had to leave our seats and walk about the rug with it. Each time it reached the edge of the rug we pulled it back to keep it off the bare floor, where it would have been very noisy.

[...] We used the small one, and placed it on the rug to muffle its noise at the late hour. [...]

(The session climaxed with a very active dance by the table, as the three of us left our chairs and followed it about the rug. [...]

[...] A rug long and narrow, a front entry. [...]

[...] The description of the long rug in a narrow front entry fits his apartment. [...]

(In other words, when I tell her to live in the pleasurable aspects of a moment, I don’t mean for her to use this as a method of sweeping unpleasantness under the rug, etc.)

(“An oval, the shape of an oval rug, for example.” [...] Jane: I think rug is a literal interpretation of “matte" finish—see object.

An oval, the shape of an oval rug, for example.

[...] Ruburt was correct in what he picked up from me today (half laughing)—concerning both your rugs and nationalized medicine, and some of its effects upon the poor if it were established.

At the very least, you should have your rugs cleaned, even if you are grumpy, both of you, for a day, since you are obviously spoiled now and afraid of cold bare floors.

[...] I measured on the rug the distance she covered.

[...] Remove the rug. [...]

[...] The rug should be removed. [...]

It would be of help along these lines for Ruburt to scrub his rug, as for him rugs have a certain significance in this respect, and particularly air the bedding. [...]

[...] Superstitiously he felt that in hiding fears about your parents he hid them for you both—shoved them under the psychological rug; but the rug became heavier and heavier.

[...] I thought she may have yelled at the cats—but in the kitchen I saw that she was sitting at the table with shards of glass littering the rug at her feet. [...]

[...] This Wednesday evening the table performed as follows: Irish jigs upon request, vaulting up into the air while in Carl’s grip, chasing around our backs as Carl held it while we tried to keep up with it, skittering across the rug, knocking back and forth, and building up a very strong pressure indeed, when we tried to force the leg up in the air back down to the floor, or rug.

[...] I began wondering how to compromise about the flea situation this summer, now that the rugs in the house are all clean.

[...] In back of her and off to her right, our cats, Billy and Mitzi, were crouching in the light cast on the rug by one of our homemade lamps from its position on a low bookcase: An insect, seemingly mesmerized by the illumination, was flying round and round inside the bright cone of the lampshade. [...]

Ruburt receives esthetic pleasure from looking at the clean rugs or windows—a pleasure which actually encourages his creativity. [...]

[...] Ruburt was strongly attracted to your new rug because of the contrast, this in itself allows steady and harmonious expression of his own personality.

(Long pause.) Ruburt felt those issues could not be buried under the rug, but he did not realize the extent to which some of those old beliefs still lingered. [...]

[...] Remember desire in terms of Ruburt’s wanting to vacuum a rug, or whatever, and encourage those desires rather than an attitude of “I must do something physical today.”

[...] Each cell is an intimate part of your reality, and yet consciously you are not as familiar with it as you are with the rug upon your floor.

An oval rug in front of it, not smooth in texture. [...]
