(Paraphrased, from memory) A description in The Nature of Personal Reality (A Seth Book), of what Jane understands Seth to be: Thanks for the clarity and service your material does to Jane and Rob-and the Seth of Jane, and to all who read it. Therefore, we really aren’t limited to nine discrete “colors”. So the foundation of nine can easily be extended into an infinite spectrum with plenty of room for individual variations. As your vision zooms in each color also reveals infinite shades of gradation and the edges, that seemed separate from a longer distance, literally disappear. When viewing this Rainbow from afar, you can’t find the exact place where red ends and orange begins, yet you can clearly distinguish both colors. If you were to think of this group, figuratively speaking, as a Rainbow of Consciousness, then each discrete color would represent an innate “family” leaning or intent. Next, try to imagine the reality of six billion human beings as individuals that make up this vast group. But imagine that this human collective is psychically related and holds the ability to communicate telepathically and clairvoyantly. To further understand the concept of “families” try to imagine the psychic reality of the collective consciousness sort of like the science fiction species – the Borg – from the TV series Star Trek. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() However, as of Dawn, after the Great Journey, WindClan moved into the lake along with the.
