This Psychic Reading given by Edgar Cayce at his home on Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 14th day of February, 1940, in accordance with request made by the mother - Mrs. […], Associate Member of the Ass”n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc.

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

Time of Reading 10:55 to 11:05 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. …, Penna.

  1. GC: You will have before you the body of [1994], born December 15, 1925, in Alexandria, Egypt; who is now in the care of Miss […], out on Route 2, …, Pennsylvania. You will answer the questions regarding his development, as I ask them:

  2. EC: Yes, we have had the physical reactions here.

  3. As we find, there needs to be kept a little closer application of those suggestions which have been made, IF THERE WOULD BE the eventual elimination of the causes, and the proper mental and physical development toward the nearer normalcy. Else, these pressures will continue to deflect the normal coordination between the impulses of the subconscious, as well as the mental self, and the reactions from the normal physical development; thus continuously producing greater warring influences to be dealt with by an already disturbed and troubled mental reaction.

  4. The Castor Oil Packs, as well as the massages, SHOULD be kept much closer in outline with those suggestions which have been made, - if the eventual results desired would be obtained.

  5. Ready for questions.

  6. (Q) Is it indicated that he will ever get any better? (A) This depends upon how much faith there is, and how much there is the practical spiritual and mental applications made in those directions which have been outlined as the channels for improvement.

  7. (Q) Is it best for him to live at home or away? (A) This will depend upon the environs and the influences or purposes of the home, and the abilities of those in other environs to cope with or to carry on the suggestions indicated.

Where these can be BEST handled is the best environ.

  1. (Q) What sort of life should he have? (A) As much in the open as practical, and with those things that are of a building or constructive nature; especially in that of weaving, whether in cloth or in basket making, or of such natures.

  2. (Q) Should any drugs be given? (A) As much as possible, keep away from these.

  3. (Q) Should he be made to learn to read and write again? (A) These should be created as the DESIRES in the mental self as related to the needs for better communication and associations with others.

  4. (Q) Should he be sterilized? (A) Will be better.

  5. (Q) Should he be trained for any particular kind of work? (A) As has been indicated.

  6. We are through for the present.
