In the prefatory remarks to the long quotation from Hume about the missing shade of blue, Whitehead calls attention to eternal objects, «unrealized in the datum and yet constituent of an «
objective lure» by proximity to the datum» (PR 86C +).
While most of our insights concerning
the objective lure come from later passages, it seems to be introduced in this careful passage from the chapter on «Propositions» (11.9):

objective lure» disappears once Whitehead makes the shift from datum to data.
Since there must be some source, the notion of an «
objective lure» was devised from which the occasion could select its Ideal of itself» (Q2).
We have already seen anticipations of reversion in Whitehead's discussion of the imaginative penumbra surrounding the bare facts of the Battle of Waterloo (Q2: PR 185C), the incorporation of relevant alternatives to the datum in
the objective lure, and the account of Hume's missing shade of blue (Q2: PR 87fC +).

While the other main texts on
the objective lure stem from an earlier chapter on «The Order of Nature» (II.3 C), closer scrutiny suggests that they belong to a single insertion, made during the transitional period (C +) before Whitehead reconceived concrescence in terms of the prehension of past occasions.8
«A proposition is an element in
the objective lure proposed for feeling, and when admitted into feeling it constitutes what is felt» (PR 187C, italics his).

He does not say so in so many words, but
the objective lure seems to be constituted of all the eternal objects making up the various past actual occasions physically prehended, as these eternal objects are mutually interrelated.
The objective lure itself seems to be constituted from the sum total of eternal objects found in the data from the past occasions.
Later the subject will select the «ideal of itself» from the «
objective lure», which is the original fund of values and eternal objects it can draw upon.
The gradation of eternal objects in respect to this germaneness is the «

Whitehead further relates the concept of
objective lure to the concept of «potential difference» in physics: «In the comparison of two actual entities, the contrast between their objective lures is their «potential difference»» (PR 87C +).
Is this an «

objective event in the actual world; it is proposed as a possibility that an entity may want to consider for itself in a future moment in its process of self - creation; it is apprehended by the entity in «feeling» and so is preconceptual and largely preconsciously apprehended; it stands in a complex of relationships with other «propositions,» and the set of propositions presupposes a systematic universe; its «interest» (as «
lure») is more important than its «truth.»
