394 Why Seth Withheld the Date of Death

Session 394: Death, Bricks, and Past-Life Art Welcome to the chillest briefing you’ll read today. We’re diving into the cosmic archives with Session 394 of The Early Sessions, Book 8 of the Seth Material, recorded on the evening of February 19, 1968. Grab a beverage, relax, and let’s see what Seth had to say while Jane Roberts was channeling and dealing with a very needy cat. The Pitre Family: Death, Dreams, and "Fashionable" Reality The session kicked off with some heavy but oddly comforting news for John Pitre regarding his ill wife, Peggy. If you think life and death are rigid, Seth is here to tell you it’s mostly about what "outfit" your soul is wearing. * Not Today, Satan: Seth made it clear that while Peggy senses her passing, it wasn't happening in the immediate future. There’s an "intervening event" first—likely involving her mother or an aunt passing away to wait for her on the other side. * The Spiritual Wardrobe: Seth noted there’s no real conflict between John’s ideas and his wife’s orthodox beliefs. He colorfully explained: "She has clothed a basic idea of reality in certain garments, and he has chosen other garments. Both are necessarily distortive, but beneath both is the same reality." * Dream School: Peggy hasn't been just sleeping; she’s been getting "previews of things to come" and meeting "survival personalities," including a young boy who is a relative. * The "A S" Venture: For John, the future looks busy. Seth predicted new business openings within three years, specifically mentioning the initials "A S" and a strange connection to "the laying of bricks" rooted in something from 1963. Session Mechanics and a Very Distracting Cat Jane was apparently feeling a bit "heady" before this session. It turns out, her physical symptoms were just her being worried about delivering potentially sad news to the Pitres. Once she got the info out, the symptoms chilled out. * Routine is King: Seth emphasized that keeping a regular schedule helps Jane (Ruburt) develop her abilities. He even mentioned that Jane feels safer when Joseph (Robert) is there to hold down the fort. * Willy the Party Pooper: In a classic "cats will be cats" moment, their cat Willy decided to jump into Jane’s lap mid-trance at 10:11 PM. Seth had to take a break because, apparently, even multidimensional personalities find a cat in the lap a bit much for projection. Joseph’s Art and the Boston Connection The conversation took a turn toward the "sculp"—a hanging cross sculpture Joseph made. * The Irony of Illustration Board: Joseph originally saw the sculpture as a heavy cast-iron piece in a vision, but realized that would probably bring the ceiling down. He built it out of illustration board instead. Talk about practical manifesting! * Past Life Vibes: Seth revealed the sculpture is a symbol of Joseph’s past life in Boston, where he died around 1872. * Religious Hang-ups: In that life, the crucifix was a "distasteful" symbol of the Catholic Church for him, while the bare cross felt like a "pure Protestant" symbol of a joyless afterlife. * A Joyous Encounter: Seth encouraged a move away from those old, heavy vibes, stating: "Our studies and any true expression of the inner self, should lead to a joyous encounter with reality and the everyday moment, out of which eternity is spun."

393 The Drowned Boy and Simultaneous Dreams

Session 393: Ghostly Wisdom and Time Loops Recorded on February 14, 1968, this session is a bit of a remix, featuring notes from an ESP class on December 28, 1967, and a full-blown class session from February 8, 1968. This isn't just dry philosophy; it’s a cosmic family reunion. Seth (channeled by Jane Roberts) spent this time dropping truth bombs on a room full of students in a loud, energy-filled apartment in Elmira, New York. The Ultimate Lesson: No Such Thing as Death One of the most moving parts of this session involves Audrey Shepherd, whose adopted son had recently drowned. Seth reveals that this wasn't their first rodeo together. In a past life, he was her biological son who died in an accident. He came back specifically to show her that the soul doesn't just "poof" out of existence. * The Purpose of Return: Seth notes, "He came back to tell you there was no death—you would not listen, hear or believe... This time he came back and was a son to you... This time you are listening." * The Water Connection: In a past life, the boy was a sailor who died in a shipwreck off the coast of Spain. He loved water, calling it the "Mother of All Earth." * A Final Farewell: This was his last reincarnation. He chose to leave when Audrey would "miss him most and question most," because that pain would drive her to find the ultimate answers about existence. Past Life Receipts: "I Remember You" Seth has a funny way of making people realize they’re much older than they look. During the February 8th class, he started pointing fingers and calling out past lives like he was reading a cosmic yearbook. * Connie's Diphtheria Scare: Seth identified Connie as a young boy in 16th-century Denmark (where Seth himself once lived as a spice merchant). The boy died at age nine of diphtheria. Spookily, Connie admitted she had a lifelong, unexplained fear of that exact disease. * Lydia’s Maine Connection: Seth pegged Lydia as a man named "Son-of-the-Northern Willows" (Rakes) living near Bangor, Maine, in 1832. Lydia, stunned, confirmed she grew up in Bangor and had always felt an intense, irrational attachment to the state. * Jean’s "Chicanery": Seth didn't hold back on Jean, mentioning past lives in Mesopotamia, Egypt, and China where she "misused" psychic abilities for "chicanery" and profit. He also noted a distant connection to Joan of Arc. Jean later confessed she’d been nicknamed "Joan of Arc" in school and had a massive fear of fire. Reality Check: Time is a Total Illusion If you think you’re running late for work, Seth would tell you to relax—time doesn't actually exist. He explains that our physical senses are just very limited filters that distort reality into a linear line. * The Simultaneous Now: Seth explains, "Everything in the universe exists at one time, simultaneously, and the first words ever spoken still ring throughout the universe." * The Dream Analogy: To understand reincarnation, Seth suggests imagining you are having seven dreams at once. To the dreamer, no time has passed, even if 100 years pass within the dream. * The "Whole Self": There is a part of you—the inner personality—that isn't trapped in this 3D "time" box and knows all your lives at once.

392 Why Seth Read the Wrong Person

Session 392 The Ego-Intuition Tug-of-War Pull up a chair and get comfortable, because we’re diving into a classic moment from the Seth Material. This report breaks down the vibes from Session 392 of The Early Sessions Book 8, recorded on the evening of January 22, 1968. In this session, our favorite multidimensional personality, Seth, drops some truth bombs about Jane Roberts (whom he calls Ruburt), her "stubborn ego," and a hilarious case of psychic "wrong number" displacement. The Ego-Intuition Tug-of-War Seth starts the night by roasting his own medium just a little bit. Apparently, Jane—the "reluctant medium"—had been having a bit of an internal power struggle. Her ego was feeling a bit jealous of her intuitive side, leading to some physical symptoms and a few restless nights. * Total Commitment: Seth points out that Jane can’t half-heart things. She’s either all in or her ego starts throwing a tantrum. * The Ego’s "Weak Offensive": Jane’s recent difficulty sleeping was described as a "last struggle" of the ego. * Harmony is Key: Seth notes that when Jane's ego and intuitive self actually work together, she hits "prime efficiency." Seth captures the struggle perfectly, stating: "In too many instances my intellect has been held back by the stubbornness of his ego. His own abilities have not therefore grown at the rate which was possible." The "Oops" Moment: Displaced Data Now, here is where it gets funny. Seth starts throwing out psychic impressions for John Bradley (whom Seth calls Philip), who was witnessing the session. Seth gives a laundry list of dates and names, but John is just sitting there confused because none of it fits. As it turns out, Seth was picking up "mail" for the wrong person! The information was actually meant for a Methodist minister Jane had met the night before. The Psychic "Wrong Number" Details: * The Name Mix-up: The minister used to go by the name "Phil," which is why Seth kept calling out to "Philip." * The 1947 Event: A "spectacular event" or something deeply affecting occurred in 1947. * The Hospital Stay: A reference to an illness or operation in 1938. * The Mississippi Connection: A lean professor with glasses who taught economics or mathematics. * The Move: The minister was recently from a town called Allison or Addison, likely in New York. Seth’s reaction to the mix-up was a classic apology for the spiritual "lag": "The information as given applies to the minister Ruburt met last evening—the whole content as given. The error having to do with the name Philip—the minister at one time in his life was called Phil." Future Vibes for Philip (John Bradley) Even though the first batch of data was a "wrong number," Seth didn't leave John Bradley hanging. He closed the session with some actual personal insights for him: * Career Move: Seth predicted a new position offer would arrive for John within a month or two. * Health Check: He pinpointed a neck difficulty caused by inner conflict, specifically a misalignment of the 4th vertebra. * The Parting Shot: Seth ended with a witty pun: "Your material was displaced, but I hope you are not displaced." --- If you're looking to dive deeper into these sessions and understand the mechanics of reality, you should absolutely study the Seth Material books.

391 The Swearing Ghost in the Dry Cleaning

Session 391: The Note, the Ghost, and the Table-Pounding Party Welcome back! Today we’re getting cozy and a little bit spooky as we dive into Session 391 from The Early Sessions Book 8 of the Seth Material, recorded on January 13, 1968. This isn't your average "Seth speaks through Jane" session; this is Jane going solo, trying to help a friend, Jerry Kramerick, solve a family mystery. Grab a drink—maybe it's "tip-up time"—and let's see what the "survival personalities" had to say. The Mystery of the Cleaner’s Note The whole afternoon kicked off because Jerry found a mysterious note stapled to her father’s clothes after they came back from the cleaners. The weird part? Jerry had searched those pockets thoroughly before sending them out. The note was from her stepmother, Billie, who had been dead since 1965. Jane decided to see if she could pick up some "impressions" without her usual partner, Seth. Psychic Hits and Vintage Vibes Jane slipped into a light trance and started dropping some seriously specific details that had Jerry’s jaw on the floor. Here are the highlights of what Jane "picked up": * The Fashion Sense: Jane described a dark-colored violet or purple velvet dress with a detachable white collar and a gold pin shaped like wings. Jerry confirmed Billie was a "dressy" lady. * The Decor: A parlor with an old-fashioned beaded globe lamp and a fringed scarf. Apparently, Billie’s house was a treasure trove of antiques. * The Schedule: Jane kept mentioning "9 o’clock" and the phrase "tip-up time." As it turns out, that was the specific time Jerry’s father liked to have his evening drink. * The Soundtrack: The song "Little Brown Jug" popped up, which was apparently a favorite. * The Medical File: Jane mentioned an appendix operation and Jerry’s own history of falling in the snow and breaking a leg. Things Get Rowdy: The Billie Show The vibe shifted from "polite psychic reading" to "full-blown family argument" real quick. Jane started channeling Billie’s fiery, swear-heavy personality. At one point, Jane slammed her fist on the table so hard the teacups literally jumped. According to the record, Jane’s voice and mannerisms became a dead ringer for Billie, who was known for being dominant and having a "quick, sputtering voice." Key Quotes from the Session: * "She says, and this is my impression: that’s no lie, as if that was an expression of hers. And that she and Jerry have guts and gumption." * "She says I’m dead. What are you yelling about? She says she’s here… And she wants him to get up and act like a man." * "A panic. You’re a goddam panic. She’s around and she says she’s livelier than he is at this point." * "I see her banging on the table and she’s saying goddammit—she’s having a fight with the father... and she says by Jesus I won’t stand for it." The Verdict By the end of the session, Jane was rubbing her right hip—the exact spot where Billie used to have pain. Jerry was totally convinced that Jane had actually been "controlled" by Billie, especially during the table-pounding sequence where Jane used Billie's exact phrases like "guts and gumption" and "that's no lie." Jane later admitted that she felt controlled by a "vivid, angry vital woman" and had to purposefully step back to maintain her own awareness. --- This summary is based on the Seth Material, and we give all the credit to the New Awareness Network.

390 The Dead Hand Séance

Session 390: The Blanche Price Transmission Welcome to a look back at a rather spooky and experimental evening in the history of the Seth Material. We are diving into Session 390 of The Early Sessions Book 8, recorded on the evening of January 8, 1968. Tonight’s vibe is a little different. Usually, Jane Roberts is the mouthpiece for Seth, but on this chilly Monday night, she decided to try something a bit more "classic medium" style. She wasn't looking for universal wisdom; she was looking for an old friend. The Spooky Lowdown: What Went Down The atmosphere was peak 1960s mystery: dim lights, a living room table by the windows, and Jane trying to dial a different number on the cosmic telephone. Here’s the gist of what happened during this chillingly cool experiment: * The Sideline Play: Jane and Rob (her husband) decided to ask Seth to play bodyguard rather than lead singer. They wanted Seth’s assistance to contact a "survival personality"—specifically Blanche Price, who had passed away the previous February—without Seth actually taking over the microphone. * The Protective Bodyguard: While Jane went into a trance, Rob stayed on the "line" with Seth, talking to him steadily to provide a protective framework. It turns out having a multidimensional teacher as your spiritual bouncer makes for a much smoother ride. * The "Dead Hand" Incident: As the trance deepened, things got a bit weird. Jane’s left hand started acting like it had a mind of its own, slapping her right hand. She later described the sensation as feeling like a "dead hand." It seems Blanche had to momentarily "re-experience" her illness to bridge the gap into our reality. * The Data Dump: Despite the "unpleasant" vibes of the death-experience filter, Blanche managed to get some specific names and dates through. We're talking baptism, rosaries, and specific names like "De Beauvoir" and "Thomas Simmons." * A Different Kind of High: Jane noted that this trance felt totally different from her usual Seth sessions. It was less like a lecture and more like an emotional deep-sea dive into someone else’s memories. The Receipts: Key Quotes from the Session To illustrate the intensity of the contact, here are a few choice words from the record of the night: * "Jane’s left hand... felt subjectively 'like a dead hand.' As though it were necessary almost for Blanche to go through the experience of being ill once again in order to make contact." * "This is Blanche... France... De Beauvoir... Thomas Simmons... And Charles. Summer... 1962... Anne’s aunt at a party... a baptism... a rosary..." * "The session, Jane said, verged often on the unpleasant, as if Blanche had to go through her own last memories first in order to make contact." The Wrap-Up This session proves that even when you're dealing with the afterlife, it helps to have a good support system. Rob’s steady voice and Seth’s background presence turned a potentially scary "dead hand" moment into a successful experiment in mediumship. * Credit where it's due: All insights and data are credited to the Seth Material and the publisher, New Awareness Network. * Level up your knowledge: If you want to dive deeper into the rabbit hole of human consciousness, we highly encourage you to study the Seth Material books.
