RISING NEEDLE
  1. means "no confront." The preclear has struck an area or something he isn't confronting. One never calls his attention to this. But one knows what it is. It is a steady constant movement of the needle, rather slow, from right to left. (EME, p. 16)
  2. a rising needle tells you that the pc can't confront, therefore has exceedingly low reality, responsibility, and knowingness on whatever significance it's rising on. (HCOB 12 Jun 61)
