This Psychic Reading given by Edgar Cayce at the office of the Association, Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 5th day of June, 1942, in accordance with request made the by the self - Mr. [1710], Associate Member of the Ass”n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc., through his sister, Mrs. [1523].

[Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno. Mrs. [1523], Burlynn Davis and Esther Wynne.]

Time of Reading 3:40 to 3:50 P. M. Eastern War Time. …, Maryland.

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, we have the body here.

3. As we find, there are changes in the physical forces of the body since last we had same here. These in the greater measures have been the result of influences from without.

4. Thus there has been caused a disturbance to the muscular forces, to the tendons, and - as a result - there have been those disturbances indicating internal hemorrhage.

5. These, however, have been and are being adjusted, in this particular phase.

6. For this particular phase, we would take those activities which would aid in purifying and healing through the intestinal tract:

7. Every other day take about an ounce of Saffron Tea, and every other day - through most of the day - take water three to four times a day in which there is put a few drops of Glyco-Thymoline.

8. As for the muscular forces through the shoulder and spine, - these as we find may BEST respond to the general hydrotherapy. DO NOT - unless there are other injuries - have any cutting; else we will have muscles and tendons that may be pulled entirely out of place, and a stiff member.

9. The general hydrotherapy treatment should consist of, first, a light sweat, followed by a Fume Bath of Witchhazel; about two teaspoonsful of Witchhazel to a pint of boiling water in the Fume Bath Cabinet, see? This should be followed by a Pine Oil Rub; and this, while not too severe, should be through the shoulder, through the area along the sides of the spine, in shoulder, in the hip also - the deep massage, but not attempting to make adjustments. These are correct as to positions, but there ARE tensions in the muscular forces - as a fold through the muscles and tendons of the body.

10. Be mindful in the diet that there are plenty of the Vitamins A, D and B-1. These should be supplied in the foods, preferably; though - after some two or three of the hydrotherapy treatments - there may be taken one of the B-Complex tablets each week, or one each day for a couple of days out of each week, but not longer. Take only one, and don’t take them regularly - that is, straight along - if the diet is kept any way near balanced.

11. Ready for questions.

12. (Q) Were there any injurious effects from the spinal injection given last year, especially as related to the kundaline forces; if so, please give suggestions for restoring balance. (A) No.

13. (Q) Are butter substitutes injurious for general use? (A) Depends on the character.

14. (Q) Any mental or spiritual advice? (A) The mental and spiritual attitudes in this body, in most instances, have been very good. But keep a constructive influence, - not merely for self but for its relationships to others.

15. We are through with this Reading.

Reports

Reports & Follow-up

R1. Questions submitted answered without being asked: What caused the passing of blood from the rectum about 4 days ago? Is the condition in the shoulder recently strained, such that it would warrant an operation for the better condition or strengthening of shoulder?

R2. 8/15/42 Letter: “I have been getting one treatment a week and my hip is feeling better but it is low. Every now and then my shoulders start aching, sometimes during damp weather. I bumped my right shoulder going thru a door and they have been aching for 3 days, sometimes I just feel like twisting it backwards to stop the aching.”

R3. 9/23/42 See 1710-9.
