"The Infinite Hive gives a detailed description of psychic experiences throughout her life, notably telepathic interactions with her husband (who independently had similar experiences) , and what she called ‘Orders’ – strong impulses that appeared to originate outside herself - ‘out of the blue, sometimes “as if” from another person and always as a surprise to the conscious mind’.3 Early examples related to her work as a nurse, in which she felt prompted to actions that puzzled her, but which turned out to be appropriate to the needs of her patients.4 Some appeared to contradict common sense, and she was reluctant to act on them. In one example, keen to take advantage of an unexpected vacancy at a boarding school that she wished to send her son to, ‘Orders’ told her not to, but instead to write to a particular individual, whom she had known slightly in childhood. She reluctantly did so and learned from him that she was wise to decline the opportunity, as the vacancy had arisen because problems at the school had obliged him to remove his son from its care.
