This Psychic Reading given by Edgar Cayce at the office of the Association, Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 11th day of August, 1941, in accordance with request made the by the mother - Mrs. [2111], Associate Member of the Ass”n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc.

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

Time of Reading 4:00 to 4:05 P. M. Eastern Daylight Savings Time. …, Ala. (Physical Suggestion)

1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for further corrective measures; answering the questions, as I ask them:

2. EC: Yes.

3. As we find, there is the lack of proper eliminations set up in the system. Also there are those tendencies towards too great an alkalinity - as combined with the ACUTE conditions from rash AND from a poison ivy.

4. This combination makes for a rather serious disturbance, producing a little temperature and a great deal of disturbance in the lymph circulation, as well as in the superficial circulation.

5. Then, we would give a combination to cleanse the system, of the alkali and acid nature - as eliminants, see?

6. Hence, first prepare a compound containing a small quantity of Podophyllum, in this manner:

Podophyllum…1/2 grain, Leptandrin…1 grain, Sanguinaria…1 grain.

Mix these ingredients and make into five pellets.

7. Take two a day, one in the morning, one in the afternoon.

8. On the third day, after the last pellet has been taken on that morning, you see, - begin with Fletcher’s Castoria in broken doses - a quarter teaspoonful every thirty minutes throughout the entire day, or until there are thorough eliminations.

9. Bathe the affected portions of the body with Cuticura Soap, and apply Cuticura Ointment.

10. Then - after the Cuticura has been used for several days - obtain the Ray’s application for poison ivy and apply same.

11. In the diet - have more of the raw vegetables and not so much of the fruits - in the present. Have more the raw and the cooked vegetables.

12. Little or no meat, and NONE of carbonated waters!

13. Ready for questions.

14. We are through with this Reading.

Reports & Follow-up

R1. 8/18/41 Mrs. [1187]‘s letter to son [641]:

“[1635]‘s feet are well, not a single sore on them, tho they still itch a lot, especially at night. She is getting along fine, only she still won’t eat. I just can’t get her to eat vegetables to do any good, altho I stopped giving her any fruit, hardly at all. I gave her some grapes yesterday, as I had some and hated to eat them and not give her any. She will drink a little buttermilk, not more than two glasses a day. It nearly worries me sick trying to get her to eat. She never wants anything though I could get her to eat fruit. I couldn’t get that prescription filled. They only had one of the ingredients. I really think she would be alright if she would eat like other children. All of the skin is peeling off her feet. I still bathe with the soap you left (Resinol).”

R2. 8/20/41 Miss [288]‘s letter:

Wednesday afternoon,

Dearest Mama:-

Your letter to [641] just came, and we are so concerned because [1635] hasn’t gotten the entire treatment as outlined in the Reading. I’m writing this to mail tonight WITH the pills, which we have at last been able to get fixed at Meredith’s. Now, Mama, PLEASE do ALL of this EXACTLY as I outline it below. [641] also urges you to do just this and nothing else, for at least a week, and I KNOW [1635] will be alright - not only the itching stopped but her condition cleared up internally so she will have an appetite. Don’t worry about her not eating, because so long as the acid and alkaline condition exists she couldn’t properly assimilate it even if she ate plenty.

Now, the very next morning after you get this:

7:30 o’clock - give [1635] one of the pills. 4:30 o’clock - give [1635] another one of the pills.

7:30 next morning - give her another pill. 4:30 next afternoon - give her another pill.

7:30 next morning - give her the last pill. 8:00 o’clock same morning - start giving Fletcher’s Castoria

• a quarter teaspoonful every half hour all day long, until bedtime.

Be sure and do it EXACTLY in this way, not using something else, but the Fletcher’s Castoria. It is the correct reaction with the other properties to get her stomach juices working properly.

Bathe her ONLY in the Cuticura Soap (NOT the Resinol that [641] left), and use the Cuticura Ointment whenever and wherever necessary.

Did you receive the Ray’s Prescription for Eczema - the liquid to be applied externally? If so, use that also on the paces where there is itching. I sent it the same night I sent the Reading, so I am afraid it is lost. If you have not received it, write immediately and tell me so I can send another special delivery. It is important!

After about a week from the time you begin this entire treatment, [1635] should be able to eat fruit again; but right at present - with the peculiar acid-alkaline set-up in her body the fruit has the wrong reaction, and causes that itching - at least there is too much already of the fruit reaction in her body. Give her carrots and tomatoes and any other raw vegetable she will eat, or cooked vegetables and their juices.

Also DO NOT give her any more of the effervescing medicine that Dr. Feulner gave for her, as this makes CARBONATED water which the Reading warned against. You said she wouldn’t take it anyway, which is a good thing - but just wanted to mention that CERTAINLY she shouldn’t have any more of it. It was the very wrong thing for her little stomach considering the condition of it, after tasting carbonated drinks all summer.

Now please start on this immediately, and write me at once about the Ray’s Prescription. [1635] may have serious after effects from this condition unless you DO EXACTLY AS INDICATED to get rid of the condition internally that has caused the whole thing. We went to a lot of trouble to get the ingredient we lacked for the pills [Leptandra - culver’s root]. So PLEASE use them. Hope you are feeling alright yourself. Love, [288]

P.S. #1. Do this, Mama, even though you think [1635] is alright; because it certainly won’t hurt her, and it WILL correct the internal condition that has caused the whole business, and unless it is corrected something else will pop up that will be worse still. Besides, this will correct her appetite - I know it will. [641]

R3. 8/29/41 [1635] took all of her medicine and is feeling fine. Her appetite seems a little better.”

R4. 10/10/41 “[1635] is getting on fine. She weighs 45 lbs.”

R5. 5/6/42 Grandmother wants some more of Ray’s Solution for breaking out, says it is the only thing that heals up the little blisters that come at times between [1635]‘s toes. Otherwise, she is getting on fine.

R6. 6/2/43 Mother [2111] obtained a Life Reading for her - See 1635-3.

R7. 1/23/64 See mother’s report under 1635-3 Reports, indicating that [1635] has had a physical problem of underactive thyroid, with a tendency to be overweight, since her early teens.

Background

B1. See 1635-1 on 7/11/38 for violent rash.

B2. 10/3/40 “She has bad cold and fever blisters all over mouth and chin.”

B3. 8/11/41 Phone request by mother: “Mama [1187] wrote - just had the letter this morning - that [1635] has something broken out on her feet - started right after she got back to […]. Mama thought it was athlete’s foot, but Dr. Feulner said it was poison. He first thought it was poison oak, but now says it is poison in blood. He has given her several things to take and to use as local applications, but nothing does any good. Some of the places have dried up but others come. She has to lie in bed all the time, as she can’t walk. Mama said she didn’t know what she would have done without [641] - he talks to [1635], bathes her feet, and tries to entertain her. Mama said she herself was not feeling well at all, but would probably get better if she were not so worried about [1635]. She wrote that [641] said he was going to ask for a Reading. I just want to tell Mr. Cayce to please get it for me as soon as he can, and thanks a lot.”
