This Psychic Reading given by Edgar Cayce at his home on Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 7th day of May, 1937, in accordance with request made by the self - Mr. [1005], Active Member of the Ass”n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc.

[Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno. Mr. [1005] and his mother [760].]

Time of Reading 12:10 to 12:15 Noon - Eastern Standard Time. …, Va. (Physical Suggestion)

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [1005].

2. As we find, conditions are much improved from that as we have had here before.

3. There only needs to be the general precautions, as we find, as to diet, as to activities, and mostly as to the eliminations.

4. Those inclinations that have been formerly indicated, through the caecum, through the whole of the colon area, and especially as related to the acidity in the system, now we find are near to a normal reaction; only there is the unbalancing that naturally during such changes makes for more of an acute condition than there would be ordinarily.

5. For the system absorbing the effect of the vibratory forces set up by the changes induced in the circulation by the low electrical forces, and changing the vibrations, makes the tendency for the whole circulation to become more easily unbalanced; until there has been established a greater resistance, or more of a leeway as it were in the abilities of the system through the functioning of the organs that have been involved through sudden changes or certain activities in the alimentary canal.

6. But being precautious, keeping in the open whenever possible, with regular exercise and regular eliminations, we should find the body keeping near to a normal condition.

7. Ready for questions.

8. (Q) How long should I continue taking the Eno Salts? (A) It’s well to take it for periods and then have rest periods; and so long as there are the tendencies at periods - as early morning or late evening - for easily tiring, take same. But take it periodically; that is, take it for a week to ten days, then leave off for three or four days; even using enemas to make for better eliminations, but be sure there is a regular period for eliminations and see that these are carried out.

9. (Q) Am I taking the Appliance in the right manner, and should it be kept up? (A) This is very good, and it is well to keep until there is made a better vibratory force - as has been indicated - through the system, or until better resistances are builded.

10. (Q) Should I increase the length of time for the treatment? (A) We would keep it about the same.

11. (Q) Is the diet alright? (A) The diet is very good. Keep in those attunements that the appetite calls for. As the appetite calls for the various food values, if the proper attunements are kept, these are ordinarily the ones needed in the system - and are very good at such times.

Do not overtax the system. Be mindful especially of raw or new beer - do not take these. Red Wine may be taken in the evenings, but not too much - rather taken as a food, not as a drink.

12. We are through with this Reading.

Reports

Reports & Follow-up

R1. 6/1/37 Answer to questionnaire on 1005-14 through 1005-18: “Yes, the analysis of the reading did cover the condition. Symptoms described correctly were high fever, congestion in sinus passages, inflammation of soft tissue of face, lack of coordination between superficial and deep circulations, acidosis.

“The physician’s analysis was high fever, congestion of sinus passages, deep cold, acidosis (he termed this condition a breaking out on the hands, but did not call it acidosis).

“I followed the suggestions in the five readings for approximately four months. Within two hours after treatments were started the fever was reduced and the congestion started breaking up. In just a few days I was able to be out of bed, but due to the acidosis on my hands I was unable to work for two weeks.

“I am now feeling fine and the distressing conditions have entirely cleared up.”

R2. 12/28/37 He obtained 419-6 for his cousin.

R3. GD’s note: To my knowledge he never had a return of the eczema following the above report, although in previous years he continued to have a touch of it occasionally. Apparently the course of treatments particularly for the skin condition, in his last five physical readings, cleared his system so that the condition did not return. [He subsequently had readings for his wife, Mrs. [23], and for his children, [2015] and [4098]. He also referred others for readings.]

R4. 5/4/65 GD’s note: Mr. [1005] says he’s in splendid health except for asthma attacks the last few years. HLC referred him to Dr. John Robert Phillips - see under 1467-18 Reports.

R5. 3/20/72 He died of emphysema - no oxygen to brain. Wouldn’t give up smoking.
