“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(“And here also with an unknown element.” referred, in my opinion, to the death of Ezra Havens, shown in the background of the photo. Ezra died of a heart attack in September 1964. Jane of course knew of Ezra’s death although she had never met him; she agreed with me that “an unknown element.” could be a reference to death.

(“A five six.” Note that Jane, or Seth, pronounced these numbers as five six, rather than fifty-six. Nevertheless I felt five six referred to the age of Ezra Havens when the photo was taken in 1960. As stated, Ezra died in 1964. Inquiring at the plant the day after this session, I learned that he had been 60 when he died; this of course made him 56 in 1960. Ezra had a history of heart trouble and his death from this was not unexpected.

(“A mine.” This is interesting also. Speaking this word, Jane said, she had an impression of being underground, while not being specifically in a location such as a coal mine for instance. She was aware of sides of rocky earth, with the rocks visible. The sides were rather close together. Consciously of course Jane knows Ezra Havens is dead and buried. But while giving the data she had no impressions of Ezra. Looking back, she thinks she might have been trying to get at the impression of a grave while skirting around it. She remembers that she was going to elaborate on the mine impression by using the word underground; but instead of doing so she went on to the next impression.

[...] In that session Ezra is dealt with in the envelope data with the same type of data; Seth gave Jane the grave data, signifying Ezra’s death, but at that time Jane, who did not like the idea of graves, did not use the word. [...] We believe the grave data was to refer to Ezra, who worked at Artistic before he died, and that this in turn was to lead Jane to identify Artistic as the source of the envelope object.

[...] My idea was that this data referred to my place of employment, from where I obtained the object, by calling upon the death of a friend, Ezra Havens, in 1964. Ezra had worked at my place of employment, Artistic Card Co., for many years.)

[...] Is water somehow involved with Ezra’s grave? [...]

[...] The older worker had been named Ezra Havens. Jane said she received the word again this evening in connection with Ezra; she felt Seth wanted to connect Ezra with the idea of disease—hence the polio data—followed by death, etc.
