This Psychic Reading given by Edgar Cayce at his home on Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 26th day of September, 1938, in accordance with request made by the self - Mrs. [1530], Associate Member of the Ass”n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc.

[Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno.]

Time of Reading 3:00 to 3:30 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. New York City.

1. GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly, and tell me the conditions you find at the present time; giving the cause of the existing conditions, also suggestions for help and relief of this body. You will answer the questions she has submitted, as I ask them.

2. EC: Yes, we have the body, [1530].

3. Now as we find, disturbing conditions in the physical forces of the body are rather specific; yet the reaction of same through the system is rather of a GENERAL nature - in the present.

4. And if measures are taken to eradicate the disturbance, this may be prevented from becoming localized or becoming a condition of a nature where the system will have adjusted itself to same - or a chronic disturbance.

5. These are conditions as we find them with this body, [1530]:

6. The blood supply indicates that in the slowing up of the activity of portions of the system it has tended to leave drosses; owing to the lack of coordinations in the portions of the body where elements are created for coagulative forces; thus allowing such portions to become rather sources of infection.

7. Hence in the extremities - with the lack of this full circulation - we find that, with ANY undue reaction, or even after rest of an evening, there is the inclination for stiffening; and at times even the swelling of joints.

8. This occurs in hands and in limbs, knees and feet, as well as in the fingers and elbows and shoulders at times.

9. It is not a true arthritic condition, nor rheumatic, nor yet of the nature that there are truly the specific sources of infection. But as indicated, the causes are specific - and the reactions are of a neuritic, arthritic, as well as rheumatic nature of disturbance.

10. In the activities of the circulation, or to the circulation, we find that the superficial circulation has been slowed; and there are reflexes seen in the eliminating system, as well as the reactions where the GENERAL feelings of the body become involved in the disturbance.

11. These as we find make for repressions at times in the respiratory system - as a heaviness through portions of the lungs. At other times there is a reaction through the digestive system, and the inclination for foods to easily form gas.

12. All of these, as indicated, are specific disturbances and in the present produce a GENERAL reaction.

13. There is a slowed pulsation, and at times a slowed or low pressure.

14. These all affect, of course, the activity of the superficial reactions of nerve system TO the cerebrospinal system.

15. In making corrective measures then, as we find:

16. We find in the present it would be well to have a few GENERAL applications of corrective forces along the cerebrospinal system; rather NEUROPATHIC in nature, - that is: AS THE CORRECTIONS ARE MADE IN THE SEGMENTS OF THE CEREBROSPINAL SYSTEM, follow the impulse along all the subluxations that are indicated - or the jamming BETWEEN the segments. Follow the nerve plexus to their reaction to organs themselves.

17. It would be well to have eight or ten such treatments; at first having one each day for three or four days, then they may be made once or twice a week until the full number are taken.

18. Now twice a week, during the period of taking the neuropathic treatments, there should be rather the low Diathermy, - that is, the low heat that will tend to correct vibratory forces of the nerve systems through the body. These should not be too high nor too long, but at least three to six of such treatments taken.

19. Then the diet, and the general activity of the mental as well as the physical forces of the body:

20. Well that the body take each day a certain amount of exercise, or as much as possible, in the open. Walking is the best exercise, but this - though - in the OPEN, when at all practical.

21. In the diet, keep to those things that are not excessive in starch, nor acid-producing foods; but let at least one meal each day - or a portion of one meal each day - be of GREEN and RAW vegetables.

22. We find that red wine in the afternoon - three or four o’clock - would be well, if it is taken as FOOD; NOT as a drink. Take about an ounce to an ounce and a half or two ounces of red wine or sherry wine - with brown or black bread, preferably. This will tone the digestive forces and make for better abilities for assimilation of foods.

23. But not great quantities of fats should be taken at all by the body.

24. Do these and we will bring the better conditions for this body, [1530].

25. Ready for questions.

26. (Q) Who would be suggested to give the corrective measures and manipulations? (A) As we find, such as Dr. Mary Miller.

27. (Q) Why do I have a tendency to sleep when I read? (A) The toxic forces from the lack of coordination, or the slowing up - as we have indicated - of the nerve impulses between the cerebrospinal and sympathetic system.

28. (Q) I seem to want to eat or sleep when I start to read. (A) As just indicated, unless there is an activity of that necessary to create coordination between cerebrospinal and superficial circulation, sluggishness occurs from toxic forces.

Do these things then as indicated, and we will bring better forces, better coordination.

29. (Q) Why do I get so tired without any apparent reason? (A) As just indicated, the toxic condition - and toxic means the lack of elimination of used energies by the slowed circulation.

It would be well for the body to take ONE drop of Atomidine in half a glass of water before the morning meal for three to four days, then leave off for about three to four days, and then take again. Do this about three to four such periods or rounds, but be persistent - don’t take it all at once, or take it one day and leave it off the next! but take for three days and leave off for five, and then take about three days again. See?

30. We are through for the present.

Reports & Follow-up

R1. 9/30/38 [1530]‘s letter to EC:

Dear Mr. Cayce:

Received the reading yesterday and your letter today.

I found the reading very interesting and helpful - yes, I responded to it immediately. There seemed to be a coziness about the whole thing - a something familiar… Much of has been impressed upon me. About six years ago when we went upstate to live - I seemed to have been literally pushed out of doors. I have walked much during my life. And, when something crawled upon me during our stay in Syracuse and I had to have an operation - the surgeon said to me - and he was an entire stranger - “You are now collecting dividends for all the walking you have done.” I used to think we had to go up there to contact this man - land only knows what would have happened if some of these experimenters here in N.Y. had a look in. So, every year since then I’ve had a general examination.

But no one could tell me why I was so tired. I think you will find this interesting - the nearest one to come to it was Dr. Hubbard/Homeopathist - they you know work on the causal body. I believe that is the only school of so-called medicine who recognizes another body. Their method of examination is unusual. They look for the reflexes - she said - “What is your hobby?” I told her it might sound funny, the thing I liked to do the most was to walk in the open and feel the breeze on my face - immediately she replied that - must be what I needed - it was nature forcing it. She was puzzled in the end though - as she said - “Well your attitude is right - you get the right reactions” - she just couldn’t get to the cause of it - but did come the nearest of any. On page two of the reading [1530-2, Par. 20] it explains the reason of my wanting to get into the open… However, she did say that it was not rheumatic.

Last September I went to a specialist - and he said, “You are all right inside - stop thinking about it…” I later said to his head nurse - funny he didn’t notice my finger, which was swollen - she looked at it and said “Let sleeping dogs lie…” Some remedy.

And the Diet… Well I’ve been playing around with that for the past few years, have read of Dr. Hay’s diet, so that will make it a little easier to follow the food list you sent me - and of course I shall follow it to the letter. When I first met Hugh Lynn I asked him what had come through about food - what a subject. Like starting on the Bible…

I shall get in touch with Dr. Miller, I like her! so that fits in nicely - though I would have followed any direction… Thought as long as I am to have four treatments consecutively, it would be better to start next week - however I’m on the diet NOW… I shall be so glad to get rid of this tired feeling - ‘tis well I have an enthusiasm for living - or I would have followed the lines of least resistance long ago - I can remember of walking down the boardwalk in Atlantic City, and being asleep on my feet. I had the day to myself and could have remained in bed but not me. It will be a relief to work work without putting forth such a tremendous effort.

You asked about Hugh Lynn - yes I have seen him - had a nice visit with him. He told me a little of what he is trying to do. Sure hope it goes through as he is so well qualified and so well suited to the work. The most reticent person couldn’t help responding to him, he is so wholesome and unassuming - he comes by that honestly enough - a most charming faculty.

In closing I want to thank you - and, somehow I must mention WE, for this valuable service.

Best wishes to all.

I must add to someone - or something - that “I am grateful.” Seems hard to get away from this letter - don’t seem to be able to bring it to a close - hope you get all that this MUST IMPLY.

Sincerely Mrs. [1530]

“Yea ‘tis a great Love.”

B2. 9/17/38 “For years I have had a doctor’s examination at this time of year, so thought this year I’d keep the money in the family, so I am writing you for a reading instead.

Questions [besides those which got asked]: “What is causing the stiffness in my fingers? I suppose a diet will be given but if not I would like you to ask about one.”
