BLACK FIVE (4)

BLACK FIVE (4)
ScnMaster
a heavily occluded case (one whose memories are usually largely hidden or made unavailable to conscious recall) which is characterized by mental pictures consisting of masses of blackness. The term came from application of a process wherein the auditor tested the preclear at each step of the process to find a step the preclear could do and began auditing at that step. A preclear who had to be started at Step V of the process was called a "Case V." This level of case could not get mock-ups but only blackness, hence black five. See also mocking up and auditing in this glossary. —Conquest of Chaos Approved Glossary (8.7.92)
