This psychic reading given by Edgar Cayce at the home of Mrs. Kate B. Smith, Route 2, Box 20, Hopkinsville, Ky., this 13th day of November, 1935, in accordance with request made by the mother - Mrs. […], New Active Member of the Ass”n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc., recommended by Mrs. [760].

[Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno. Parents of [1056], and Thomas House.]

Time of Reading 3:30 to 3:45 P. M. Central Standard Time. …, Ky. (Physical Suggestion)

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [1056].

2. As we find, while in the physical forces of the body there are very good conditions in many ways, there are periods and times when those conditions which have been existent produce incoordination between the mental reactions and the physical responses. This is produced by the effects of a condition existent from almost the time of the birth, from the manner in which the presentation was.

3. Hence there is a lesion which has formed, that makes a pressure upon the adrenals in their responses to the nerves of the pineal glands and those that make for the responses between IMPULSE and the nerve reaction to forces in the activities of the body itself.

4. These, then, are conditions that arise as periods or cycles of changes, and activities that have an effect upon the body’s physical and mental reaction - in the physical, or in the applications of the activities in the assimilating forces of the body, as applied to gland reaction, to nerve responses and nerve buildings.

5. Then, these are conditions as we find them with this body, [1056] we are speaking of:

6. IN THE BLOOD SUPPLY, in the present we find the responses here are near to normal, save as to the effects that are being created - and are created at times in the manner in which the various hormones in the hemoglobin apply to the activity of the nerve AND the responses in the nerves in the glands to the system. These are indicated in the numbers, or the manners of the hormones within the cellular forces of the blood.

7. IN THE NERVE FORCES, these responses are shown in the axis of the lower lumbar center. These have made or produced, then, a lesion that - forming with the brush end or the lower end of the cerebrospinal system as it coordinates with the sympathetic or vegetative forces - brings about at times the lapses of coordination in reflexes and responses to the activities of the body itself.

8. Hence we have a physical condition producing in the body-functioning, in the glands and in the activities to the functioning of the responses of the nervous forces, the disturbances.

9. THE BODILY ORGANS, while the activities of these are in the main near to that which would made a normal physical response, we find that these may be materially aided.

10. While it will require persistency, and a consistent reaction to or through the influences that must become of an electrical nature as related to that assimilated and its response upon the activity in the supplying of influences in the functioning of glands in those areas that will make for a loosening, there may be produced a relief of that area in the 4th lumbar center. Thus there may be produced then a coordinant reaction in the cerebrospinal, the sympathetic, TO brain or sensory responses.

11. To make for adjustments in the cerebro-spinal system externally will only make for a strengthening of the physical forces without adding to the system that which would be of the nature to make for a loosening of those lesions produced by pressure when tissue was first forming.

12. Hence we will find the necessity of adding those elements in a nature or manner in which they may become as elemental activities to the body; that is, in the nature of the natural electronic energies.

13. Hence we would apply same in those elements that are as resistances one to another, through the areas where there is the indication of that which is producing the disturbance. And at the same time these elements would carry those activities to the glands themselves so that their SECRETIONS may be of such a nature as to repair that which has been damaged by this long incoordinant activity in their functioning.

14. This may not be repaired in a few applications, nor will it be found to be other than a GRADUAL growth to gradual betterments - until the lesions themselves have been assimilated or disseminated or dissolved by the activity of the elements carried in the system. And at times there will apparently be a reaction which will be of such a change as to require a great deal of patience, and a great deal of mental suggestive forces for the body, to bring the normal reactions. But then we will find a betterment coming about that will, in less than a third of a cycle of development, make for much nearer to normal conditions.

15. Prepare, then, the Wet Cell or the galvanic low form of electrical vibrations, from the Wet Cell Appliance; that will carry in same two solutions - one the Chloride of Gold and the other a 10% solution of Nitrate of Silver. The vibrations from these solutions would be carried into the system from separate leads. The attachments would be made in this manner:

16. The first day the Chloride of Gold solution (in the proportion of 10 grains of Chloride of Gold to each ounce of distilled water), the next day the 10% solution of Nitrate of Silver.

17. The small copper plate would be attached first, over the lacteal duct center. The larger nickel plate, passing through the solution (one day the Gold, the next day the Silver), would be attached last - at the upper portion of the adrenal center - or at the 9th dorsal center. Each day the application would be made for thirty minutes.

18. After this Appliance has been used for a period of thirty days, then begin with a gentle massage once a week that would make for a loosening of the areas from the coccyx center to the brachial plexus center. Preferably it would be with such a vibration given from an electrically driven vibrator. This merely added to the other treatments, see?

19. After these have been given in conjunction for sixty days, then rest or leave them off for a period of a month; and then begin again.

20. Do this, consistently, persistently. Renew the charge of the Appliance every thirty-six days, by the adding or the changing of the solutions, so that the electrical forces will create those activities in conjunction with glands, with nerve responses. For these will develop that necessary force to overcome those conditions and bring about coordinations in this body, mentally with the physical, mentally with the spiritual. Let it be done in harmony and in prayerful attitudes.

21. Ready for questions.

22. (Q) Do you think in time he will be entirely cured? (A) He will within the period as indicated be normal physically, mentally, if the treatments are consistently and persistently applied as indicated.

23. We are through for the present.

Reports

Reports & Follow-up

R1. 7/3/37 His mother referred Mr. [1394] for a Physical Reading.

R2. 12/13/42 Mr. [1056]‘s father’s letter: “Your book rec’d and want to thank you for same. Find check enclosed. We are reading it and enjoying it very much.

“You know, I am a water witch. I remember witching several wells. I rec’d a lb. of butter for one, and a pair of shoes for another. That was going some, wasn’t it? Your book brings back old days for me.”

R3. 3/18/43 Mr. [1056]‘s letter: “I have been sick for several years. I am not, however, as bad off as I was but I am still a long ways from being well. I have nervous spells on an average now of about one every six weeks. After having one of these spells I am so weak that I have to remain in bed several days from the strain. Please advise as soon as possible what I should do in the above case. I want you to give me a reading.” [GD’s note: Evidently he did not know of the first reading - it had not been followed.]

R4. 4/19/43 “What is the cause of these spells? What is the remedy for this illness? How long will it take this remedy to bring about a cure? Will a moderate use of intoxicating liquors tend to retard recovery?”

R5. 4/30/43 See 1056-2.

R6. GD’s note: I seem to remember vaguely a discussion indicating that [1056]‘s trouble was mostly thought to be alcoholism, which the parents were trying to keep hidden. However, this may not have been the main trouble at all.

B1. 10/19/35 Mother’s letter: “He has been in bad health for some time… He has had all the doctors in town without success…”

B2. 10/29/35 letter: “I would rather my son knew nothing about the reading until it is over, as he is very sensitive and very nervous, and I can explain the reading to him after the diagnosis, if it can be arranged that way.”
