This psychic reading given by Edgar Cayce at his home on Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 19th day of September, 1935, in accordance with request made by the mother - Mrs. […] new Active Member of the Ass”n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc., recommended by Mrs. [823].
[Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno. L. B. Cayce.]
Time of Reading 3:00 to 3:20 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. …, Iowa. (Physical Suggestion)
-
EC: Yes.
-
Now, as we find, conditions are rather of a serious nature that affect the physical forces of this body. There may be added, though, as we find, that which may not only be helpful but may give the opportunity for a greater development for this entity or soul in this experience.
-
These conditions we find arise from infectious forces that prevent the forming in the system of that which makes for a proper flow of the lymph and the emunctory circulation.
-
Hence portions of the body gradually become, as it were, unactive. Or there is the inability for the body in any of its exterior forces to respond to even SUGGESTIONS.
-
Yet, if there will be added the influences or vibrations from metals that would react with the gland forces and with the nerves’ activity (in such measures and manners as we will give), so as to make for the proper reaction in system, we find that there might be brought about much bettered conditions.
-
This may be done through the low form of electrical forces; not from a direct current but rather the static form of electrical vibrations.
-
Hence we would use those vibration that may be produced from the Wet Cell Battery application that would carry the Silver and Gold solutions, so that the emanations from same (through the anodes passing through the solutions) might be taken to portions of the system. Thus we may make for bettered conditions in this body, [1006].
-
The attachments from the Wet Cell Appliance, then, would be made in this manner:
-
The small copper anode, extension or plate (the positive) would be attached first, at the 2nd dorsal center.
-
The larger nickel anode (the negative), on the lead passing through the Silver solution (which would be a 10% solution of Nitrate of Silver), would be attached last, to the lacteal duct center - or a portion of the lacteal duct, the gall duct, and the umbilicii area - or a span or hand’s breadth from the umbilicii center towards the right side.
-
These attachments would be made EACH EVENING, for twenty minutes.
-
Following the application of the Wet Cell Appliance each evening carrying the Silver solution, we would massage body with a compound prepared in this manner:
-
To 6 ounces of Witchhazel as the base, add: (in the order named)
Oil of Turp…1/2 ounce, Kerosene Oil…1/2 ounce, Spirits of Camphor…1 ounce, Compound Tincture of Benzoin…1 ounce.
Each evening following the treatment with the Appliance carrying the Silver solution, shake the above ingredients together and massage along the spine, across the abdomen, over the limbs, and ESPECIALLY in those centers (as under the arms, in the groin, the elbows, under the knee, across the body itself) where the emunctory activities are closer to the surface.
-
EACH MORNING, after the body has been prepared (or had the bath), attach the Wet Cell Appliance in THIS way and manner:
-
The small copper anode would be attached first, at the 1st and 2nd CERVICAL center.
-
The larger plate, passing through the Gold Solution (which would be prepared in the ratio of 5 grains of Chloride of Gold to 1 ounce of DISTILLED water - but use about 6 ounces of each solution in the container through which the anode passes that is connected with the body), would be attached last, to the 4th LUMBAR center.
-
These attachments would be made for thirty minutes to an hour, EACH MORNING.
-
Each morning following the use of the Wet Cell Appliance carrying the Gold solution, we would massage into the body a compound prepared in THIS way and manner:
-
To 6 ounces of Russian White Oil as the base, add (in the order named):
Oil of Cedar Wood…1 ounce, Oil of Sassafras…1/2 ounce, Kerosene Oil…1 ounce, Oil of Mustard…1/4 ounce, Camphor Gum (dissolved in solution)…1 dram.
It will be found that these ingredients will tend to separate, but shake well together before using; and massage just what will be absorbed by the body - each morning after the Wet Cell Appliance treatment carrying the Gold solution - along the spine, along the larger centers from which the activities of the locomotory centers come; that is, the brachial center, at the base of the brain, at the solar plexus, in the lumbar and sacral and the coccyx centers, and along those areas of the sciatic nerves down the back portion of the lower limbs.
-
In the diets keep those things that have already been indicated as best for the body; those that are the more easy to digest.
-
Keep the eliminations even with using the enemas, as indicated.
-
And after fifteen days of using these applications, we would give further instructions.
-
Ready for questions.
-
(Q) What caused this condition? (A) It is reinfection from internal forces applied to the body in some times back.
-
(Q) Where is the seat of it? (A) The lacteal ducts.
-
(Q) Following these suggestions, will she be brought to normal? (A) As indicated, these applications will give a greater opportunity for the development in this experience - if there will be the responses of the body, as we find in the present.
-
Do these.
-
We are through for the present.
Copy to Mother - Air Mail ” ” Ass’n file (See letter [which was enclosed] to Health Home Remedies Co. giving specifications for type of appliance suggested. I understand this type of appliance, carrying two solutions, is $30. However, I think it may be rented if so desired. It takes about a week to make up such an appliance, according to specifications, after receiving the order; so I would suggest that you send back the letter to the Company at once - if you wish to follow the treatments suggested in the reading. Directions for making such appliances were given in readings by Mr. Cayce, and most remarkable results have been obtained where they have been used accordingly.
The ingredients for the two oil rubs might be bought separately and added as given, labeling the two solutions - one for evening and one for morning use, as specified.
After fifteen days of following the treatments, let us know so we may make a Check Reading to give further instructions. GD.)
Reports
Reports & Follow-up
R1. 10/8/35 Mrs. [823]‘s letter: “Mrs. [1006] is so bad that every day counts with her, I should think. Mrs. […] [her aunt] writes that her mother and husband showed the rdg. to one doctor, and he said there was nothing definite and it would apply to any case of prolonged illness. Her husband is now waiting for his old family physician to return from a trip, and thinks he will see more in the reading and carry it out. I forwarded the material about the use of batteries that you sent to me, on to the family. They expressed gratitude for the information. I have not seen the reading, but:
“A year ago Mrs. [1006] began to have ‘dead spots’ on her cheek, then some weeks later would fall often, and later seemed paralyzed from hips down, and sat in a wheel chair until forced to bed. The doctors have said it might be an infected spinal cord, infected heart, etc. They say the cord is dying or dead!
“Mrs. [1006] has developed terrible bedsores, and these sores are at present giving them much concern. Mrs. […] [her aunt] said you did not mention them, but I can see they are an effect of lying in bed and not the disease. She mentioned also an ointment was to be used. Could that be for the bedsores? I wish I were down there now to encourage them and help them with the reading as far as my understanding goes.”
R2. 10/17/43 Mrs. [823]‘s letter: “I want you to know that the young woman in Iowa, a Mrs. [1006], for whom you gave a Physical Reading when she was not expected to live that week out, and that was six [8!] or more years ago, is still alive! And my brother’s wife, [895], and their son, [831], for whom you read when they were puzzling the doctors, have had better health ever since. All three likely would say (as they were told, no doubt) that their doctors studied the readings but did not follow them. However, I believe that the doctors did follow the readings but gave no credit to Mr. Cayce.”

B1. 9/15/35 Mother’s letter: “Through Mrs. [823] our family heard today of your splendid work. My daughter is seriously ill and I would like to have you give her a Physical Reading at the earliest possible moment.
“She was taken to the Mayo Clinic last November and they gave her no hope. She has been in bed most of the time since at her home. Her attending doctor there has given her only a short time to live.
“Mrs. [823] says that the conditions here are ready for a rdg. whenever it is convenient for you, as she is bedfast. Wire night message if and when you can take her. This is being done with the consent of her husband and family, but we consider her condition too serious to talk it over with her now.”
B2. 9/16/35 Mrs. [823]‘s letter: “According to the doctors, who cannot name her disease, she lies at death’s door… Mrs. [1006] is so weak and nervous and excitable that all thought it best to say nothing to her about the reading, for she will be still any hour or day you are able to give the reading… Her case has baffled all the doctors in this section including those in Rochester clinic. It is grand we have you and your source of information from which to seek the truth about this.”
