This psychic reading given by Edgar Cayce at his office, 115 West 35th Street, Virginia Beach, Va., this 9th day of August, 1929, in accordance with request made by self - Miss [1916]. Also by Dr. T. B. House.

[Edgar Cayce; Mrs. Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno. Dr. T. B. House, Mrs. Wood Gray, Hugh Lynn Cayce, L. B. Cayce, and Mr. C. A. Robinson.]

Time of Reading Cayce Hospital, 11:45 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. Virginia Beach, Va. (Check Physical Suggestions)

1. EC: We have the body here, [1916]. This we have had before. Now, changes are taking place in the physical forces of the body. Here we will find an opportunity for the application of those properties as have been given for such conditions, where there is improper coordination of the nerve forces and system through injury, or through that wherein the pineal gland, with its correlation of the cerebro-spinal and sympathetic system, do not coordinate. These medicinal properties as has been given in these bitters - May Blossom Bitters - will aid in creating that vibration, with the proper ADJUSTMENTS made - these that have been made have not wholly contacted in the lumbar, sacral, and watch closely there in the coccyx - this hasn’t been looked after fully yet.

2. As for the May Blossom Bitters, the dosage for this PARTICULAR body, [1916] - we would begin with half a teaspoonful three times each day, half an hour after meals. Keep this up for three days. Rest a day. Then three more days. Rest two days. Then six days, and rest two days. Then begin over again, in the same way.

3. CORRECT those conditions in sacral and look after the end of the coccyx! That isn’t being raised properly, and a pressure is created. To give these properties and not relieve the pressure will be to bring on another spasm. Don’t do that! Relieve these pressures, and - as it is RELIEVED, these properties will assist nature in BUILDING that necessary to HOLD this in place - see?

4. (Q) Would this same May Blossom Bitters be applicable to [758] at the Cayce Hospital? (A) In different proportions it would be applicable - for here we have a condition to relieve, also osteopathically, in the lower dorsal and the sacral and lumbar regions, see? Now, with the vibrations as are added from the battery forces, we will create a different energy in the system. These properties, then, would only be in very MINUTE quantities - a DROP to THREE DROPS, given three times each day.

Do that.

5. We are through for the present.

R2. 9/29 Letter to EC from [1916]:

“Just where is that letter you were gonna write me? Well now I’m gonna make you write whether you want to or not ‘cause I’m gonna ask some questions that need answering. First, is the May Blossom Bitters ready? Second, is the lady osteopath coming? if so, when? if not when will Dr. House be able to treat me? Third, how is everyone and especially your dad? I have been meaning to answer his letter every mail and I just don’t ever seem to get anything done.

“I want to come back down when ever you think it advisable. That is when I can get all my treatments. Can you tell me when that will be?

“When will Dr. House return? He told me he would let me know when he returned.

“Give my regards to everyone.”

Sincerely, [1916]

R3. 9/11/29 Letter to [1916] from EC:

“Replying to yours of recent date - if you could have seen how busy I have been, you would have wondered whether I knew who I was or not. That’s no excuse, however, for not writing you - but inasmuch as I knew you had written, or had been told that you had written the rest, and this was the first I had heard from you, I thought you were getting all the information you wanted from them.

“Now, in answer to your questions: The May Blossom Bitters has not been made as yet. Dr. House just came back last week, but has been very, very ill and hasn’t had the opportunity to do it - in fact hasn’t been able to, and no one else could do it just as it should be done - but we hope to have it in the next week or so. The lady osteopath, or a lady osteopath, Grace C. Berger, D.O.] is at the hospital now giving the treatments. I’m sure you would find her quite capable of taking care of the trouble; at least every person has expressed satisfaction with the treatments and her ability to carry them out just as the information is given in the readings. Everyone at the hospital is getting along very nicely. I hear them all speak of you quite often, when I am around, and all have been wondering when you were coming back.

“I think [1916] personally, that if you were here at the present time you could be getting wonderful benefits from the treatments. How are you feeling? “Nothing specially new. Everything is working along just fairly well. Let us hear from you. With kindest personal regards from all,”

Sincerely, Edgar Cayce

R4. 9/15/29 Letter to EC from [1916]:

“I am so sorry to know that Dr. House is sick. I certainly hope he is improving. I haven’t heard a word from anyone down there for weeks and didn’t know that he was back. I hope it won’t be long until he is able to get around again.

“I am thrilled to death over the lady osteopath. But Mr. Cayce I guess you haven’t read my last reading which says not to take the treatments without taking the medicine so I guess from that I might as well wait until the medicine can be made. I am crazy to get back down there and I am afraid staying away from treatments all this long isn’t doing me a speck of good. I wish when you have time you would glance over that reading and tell me if you think I interpreted it right.”

R5. 9/17/29 Letter to [1916] from EC:

“Replying to yours of recent date - yes, Dr. House has been ill and has gone away for the time being. Certainly am hoping he gets along alright. The lady osteopath, as I said before, is here, and if you come down - or are coming down in the near future - I’ll see to it that these Bitters are gotten in shape for your use while you are here, in conjunction with your other treatments. Let me know about this.”

Sincerely, EC

R6. 11/19/29 Letter to [1916] from Linden Shroyer:

“As you know, we are going through all of the readings compiling the data contained therein for the use of the Association. We are not, however, using the names of the individuals, and we have just come to your case. The purpose of this letter is to ask you to send us, in your own words, a resume of your experiences, both as to the correctness of the diagnoses and the results obtained by following the treatment suggested, merely something that we can use as a matter of record.

“I am very sorry, as all of your friends are, (Mrs. Griffin, Mrs. Atkinson, Judge, Gladys, Mrs. Cayce, etc.) that you are unable to return to the hospital as soon as you would like to. I know you are anxious to continue your treatment, for I am sure you realize the benefits to be obtained. We will all be glad to welcome you when you do return.

“Let us hear from you as to the matter first mentioned, and then write a second letter at your convenience telling something of yourself, prospective tea-room, election and any other matters of interest.

“Have heard a couple of times from Mrs. Hopkins, who is now at Pinehurst in her old position. Have lots of interesting things to tell you, but will have to save them until some future time when I will be able to write more in detail.

“With best wishes and kindest regards,” Sincerely yours,

[GD’s note: Mildred Davis, his assistant, had the same job about which Miss [1916] asked in 1916-3, Par. 12-A.]

R7. 12/4/29 Letter to EC: “I am getting along fine and still carrying out my diet.”

R8. 3(?)/30 Letter to Gladys Davis from [1916]:

“Yes it has been a long time since I have written but it is not because I haven’t thought of you all. I am traveling now, for Augenger (?) Studio, photographers out of Norfolk and Roanoke. I enjoy my work so much.

“It was with no little interest that I read over each account of the plans for the Atlantic University. I hope someday my children may be members of the student body of that great institute.

“How is everyone? Well, I pray.

“Gladys, I know how busy you must be, and I wonder if Mr. Cayce is still giving life readings. If he is please book an appointment for me. I have always wanted one. If he can give me one I hope it will be before the 14th of June as I’m sailing on that date and I would like to know before I go if I was ever in any of the places I will visit, before this life, it might prove quite interesting to me.

“You have my last check for my little nieces reading and that can just go on this one, if it is possible to give it. May I hear from you soon, in regard to this.

“Is Mr. L. B. well? Are Sonny Boy & Mrs. Hewitt still in the hospital? I wish it was possible to come down to see you before I sail but I guess I can’t see my way clear to this time.

“My regards to everyone.”

Always, [1916]
