The Holiday Bombshell: Insights from Session 117
Welcome to a very chilled-out look at one of the shortest and most enigmatic moments in the Seth Material. Today, we’re diving into Session 117 from The Early Sessions, Book 3, recorded on the evening of Wednesday, December 23, 1964. Grab a drink, kick back, and let’s get into the vibe of this spooky little holiday "non-session."
The Scene: Baking Marathons and Christmas Trees
Before we get to the words of Seth, we have to set the stage for this absolute mood. It’s two days before Christmas in 1964, and the house is basically a scene from a tired holiday movie:
- Jane Roberts had been a kitchen warrior all day, surviving a "baking marathon" to get ready for the holidays.
- Robert Butts was also dragging, having worked overtime and feeling pretty wiped out.
- The couple wasn't even sure a session would happen. Jane hadn't "felt" Seth around at all, and they were both losing track of time while standing by their Christmas tree.
- Suddenly, the glasses came off, the voice got strong, and Seth decided to crash the party—briefly.
The Message: A Historical "Oops"
Even though Seth claimed there would be no formal session, he couldn't help but drop a massive truth bomb before heading out for the holidays.
- Seth dropped a bit of a holiday shocker regarding the origins of Christmas: "This event you are about to celebrate did not take place historically. Nevertheless you can use it, and we will go into this in sessions in the near future."
- Essentially, Seth tells them that while the history books might be wrong about the event itself, the idea of it still has some serious utility in their daily lives.
- It was a classic "I’m not here, but here’s some cosmic homework" move. Seth explicitly stated, "There will be no session," yet managed to give them something to chew on while they ate Jane’s holiday cookies.
The Vibes and Physical Sensations
This session was less of a lecture and more of a "checking in" vibe. It only lasted a minute or two, but it left a lasting impression:
- Seth expressed a surprisingly sentimental (or perhaps just observant) interest in their holiday plans, saying: "If I may, however, I would like to look in on you at various times over the holidays."
- Jane was totally caught off guard by the abrupt start. She reported feeling "cold" the moment the session began, a sensation that vanished as soon as Seth signed off.
- Robert wondered if their "conditioning" to a schedule was what drew Seth out, even when they were both too exhausted to think straight.
