This Psychic Reading given by Edgar Cayce at his home on Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 22nd day of December, 1938, in accordance with request made by the self - Mrs. [1765], Associate Member of the Ass”n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc., recommended by Dr. Mary Miller, and Mr. David E. Kahn.

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

Time of Reading 10:50 to 11:15 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. …, Ill.

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; answering the questions she has submitted, as I ask them:

2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [1765].

3. Now as we find, there are some disturbing conditions with this body. And with the correction of the now existent disturbances, much that might become more serious may be averted; as well as making for a great deal of relief in some directions.

4. These as we find arise primarily from incoordination between the superficial and the deeper or internal circulation as related to eliminations in the system; or incoordination, it may be called, of the eliminating systems of the body.

5. Then, these are the conditions as we find them with this body, [1765].

6. First, in the blood supply, - this we find tends to be slow, especially in the superficial circulation or the portions near the epidermis. And this slowing naturally causes a subnormal blood pressure; and the extremities become numb or inclined to fag easily; at times often finding same as it were asleep or the like. This is the effect of conditions as related to portions of the glandular system and pressures existent in the lumbar and sacral axis; and in the coccyx portion of the cerebrospinal system.

7. The effects are to cause at times the superficial blemishes, in the form of blackheads or blisters, or abrasions; as to cause at other times the indications as given in the extremities; at times bad breath even; at other times a lightness in the head as it were, or a little dizziness; upsetting of the digestive forces, - all may be a part of this condition.

8. And there is the inclination for deficiency in certain PORTIONS of the activity of the thyroid.

9. In the nervous system, - these disturbances naturally produce pressures upon the coordinating centers between the superficial and cerebrospinal circulation, as related to nerve IMPULSES now, rather than circulation of blood or lymph supply.

10. These as we find are the areas indicated in the structural portion of the body. These cause at times the inclinations for the body to feel or to have a depressing reaction, or become supersensitive to the conditions from others, or their reaction to the body.

11. In the functioning of the organs themselves, - as we find, there are the drosses from the eliminating forces in the glandular reaction as to reproduction. And these at times cause a depression, or nervous reaction.

12. These all as we find would respond to a glandular clearing, a purifying of the blood stream, a correcting of those conditions where pressures exist; and the proper coordinating between the nerve forces and the blood supplies of the body.

13. Then, in making applications as would bring the better influences and forces for this body, as we find:

14. We would give first that there be the beginning of small doses of Atomidine; one minim in half a glass of water each morning before any meal is taken, for at least ten days. Then leave off for at least three weeks.

15. And during that three weeks have, at least twice each week, the manipulations and adjustments osteopathically to correct those subluxations in the lumbar-sacral and coccyx area; to be sure coordinating - each time the adjustments are made - the areas of the central and upper dorsal and throughout the cervicals; stimulating the upper dorsal and cervical FOR the drainages THROUGH the alimentary canal. For the osteopathic adjustments, as we find such as Dobbins would be MOST satisfactory.

16. When the osteopathic adjustments are begun, have at least THREE colonic irrigations to purify the alimentary canal, so that the activity of those properties taken previously (the Atomidine), as well as the manipulative forces, may have a clear field as it were for the system to respond and rebuild those influences for the more perfect coordination.

17. We find that the use also of the Radio-Active Appliance would be MOST beneficial, in creating a normal balance between the extremities of the body and in producing and aiding in bringing about a balance in the sympathetic and cerebrospinal nervous system. This, too, would be begun after at least the first week of the adjustments. It will make better rest, more quieting for the body. When it is used, for thirty minutes to an hour each day, in relays or periods of two to three weeks and leaving off for an equal period, such periods would be used for the real meditation and prayer. It will be found to aid the body in EVERY direction.

18. These done, as we find we will make for bettered conditions throughout the system, [1765].

19. Ready for questions.

20. (Q) Any special doctors indicated, in N.Y. or Chicago, for treating facial blemishes and troublesome stiffness of neck? (A) As indicated, the Dobbins’ method in New York.

As for the clearing of the skin blemishes or scar tissue, it is necessary that there be the services (if it is to be done) of one skilled in such activity.

As we find, if the body were to have the services of a masseuse about three times a week, and THEN the use of a combination such as we may give here for a gentle massage, we may WITH the improving of the circulatory forces - relieve a great deal of the scar in the neck and shoulders and portions of the body.

Use a combination of oils prepared in this manner:

Sweet Oil…1 ounce, Spirits of Camphor…1/2 ounce, Compound Tincture of Benzoin…1/4 ounce.

This would be massaged in and left, or as it is massaged in and left on for a while; with a general - not too hot, but the covering of first hot and then cold towels, see? This, just as the improvement of the circulation, will aid in a better scalptone.

21. (Q) If possible, suggest improvement for formula of gray hair remedy I am considering putting on market, and which is now undergoing laboratory experiments. A bottle of this preparation I hold in my hand. (A) It’s better that the laboratory experiments be carried forward. THEN, when it is near to satisfactory conclusions, such a question might be more readily answered.

The BASIS of this is very well, but sage of course - must be the active principle.

22. We are through for the present.

B1. 12/19/38 [1765]‘s letter requested Physical Reading for her brother, Mr. [1764]:

The …, …, New York

The two readings for myself are the physical in the morning and the Life in the afternoon of the 22 Dec. Questions - Health?

Is any gland preparation of value for me - apparently change of life just about complete - Any special doctors indicated or type of treatments, diets or exercises. General health good - tendency to low blood pressure - and feeling of fatigue - Wish for advice as to best means to overcome blackheads in complexion - and discolored spots in skin of face - For about 15 years 4 or 5 times a year blisters appear in different places on back with swelling of nearby glands - remain a week and leave scabs? Any method to remove unsightly scar arm & neck caused by burns - also this burn left contractions affecting back of neck??

I do not know whether question about vocation belongs here or after the Life Reading.

I have been actively engaged in a retail business for 15 years - in …, Ill. Is it indicated that this will and should continue - or should I seek other occupation?

Also in regard to continuing in a marriage which for many years has been continued only for sake of children now grown to manhood - There is great dissimilarity and incompatibility of mental and spiritual values but I wish to continue it until such time as I can feel that I have discharged any karmic or other obligations towards this fellow traveller - I long for freedom but only when I have earned it -

I attended both meetings in New York and had the pleasure & privilege of talking with Mr. Cayce about my brother, which he will perhaps remember. With all good wishes and blessings. I am

Yours sincerely [1765]
