R~ is supposed also* to be the point of Intuition and (per my own suppositions)** of 'Horizontal' E[xtra] S[ensory] P[erception] (as contrasted with the 'vertical' E[xtra] S[ensory] P[erception] of S~ – prophecy*** etc.). By 'Horizontal ESP' I mean everything from telepathy to mediumistic clairvoyance, and in this connection I think particularly of those who seem to hear 'spirit' voices giving practical information for or about other Individuals. This is not all that different from controlled schizophrenia: or fiction.

(By contrast [SX]'s tendency to see 'ghosts' as if with the outer eye strikes me as partly due to eidetic vision, the ability to visualise internal images as if they were external images: [SX] also states that he has a photographic memory. The images may still represent truth, for example by symbols: the knowledge behind them may be a form of 'Vertical ESP',** and certainly does not seem to represent multiple sources of the 'I have another voice coming through' type, at all.)

[But/& see [Redbook4:200][19871206:1935]{Sense and Sensibility (2) [continued]}[6th December 1987]: '“Prophecy” above* does not necessarily mean telling the future. It is the direct and clear link between God and Man. Natural Scientists, concerned with predictability, and with approaches to objective reality, belong at S~.' ]
