1. GC: You will give the relation of this entity and the universe, and the universal forces, giving the conditions that are as personalities, latent and exhibited, in the present life; also the former appearances in the earth’s plane, giving time, place, and the name, and that in that life which built or retarded the development for the entity, giving the abilities of the present entity and that to which it may attain, and how.

2. EC: Yes, we have the entity here, and those relations with the universe and universal forces as are latent and exhibited in the present earth’s plane.

3. In entering this plane we find the entity comes under the influence of Neptune and Uranus, with those influences in Jupiter and in Mars. Hence the conditions as are exhibited in the present earth’s plane in that of the love of the sea (see the body has gone to sea).

4. In the influence then, we find one of many exceptional abilities.

5. One that is considered eccentric and peculiar, having many changeable moods.

6. One loving mystery, and every condition as regards towards a mystery of the sea, and of the sleuth or detective nature.

7. One that should have been guided close in the study of those things pertaining to the mystery and the occult.

8. One who will find the entity’s greatest abilities in the present earth’s plane in the study of the occult forces.

9. One that loves the use of firearms, and likes the display of same.

10. One that in the present year finds the greatest changes coming in the life.

11. One that will find many lands and many experiences in many lands, returning only to the present surroundings of birth in the middle of the life.

12. One who finds little in the present day experience of that called religious life.

13. One that finds great store in the study of the mysteries in every form of the spiritual plane.

14. One that will bring much joy and much sorrow to many, especially to the weaker sex, as termed.

15. One that will find the ability to give much counsel to many through the experiences of life.

16. In the appearances we find many of the various urges that we find with the present existence.

17. In the one before this we find in that of that entity often referred to as Captain Kidd [8/28/26 See 254-32, Par. 13-A re parallelling Kidd & Barrington (Geo.?) 1645-1701], and the entity then gained in the first portion of the life, and in the latter portion gave much to others, though the experience to self rather severe. In the urge is found the love of the sea, of mystery, of those things as pertain to the mysterious, or of that ability to gain or place mystery in the eyes of others.

18. In the one before this we find in that of the entity known as Hawk [?] [Evidently not the British admiral Edward Hawke Hawke, Baron (1705-1781).] in the English navy. The entity then was in that aide to the first of the navigators to the eastern portion of the world, and in the latter days came to the northern shore of the land where the present entity saw the first period of this present existence. This was in that period many years before the land became known to the continent [Prior to 1492?]. In the urge again is seen the love of adventure and of mystery.

19. In the one before this we find in that land of the bedouins, when the war was made between the then Grecian forces and the peoples of the plain. The entity then was in the name Xenia, and the second in command of those plains people who brought consternation to those invading forces by turning hornets loose among them. This, as we see, brought to the entity power, and in the end proved the undoing of the entity. In the urge is seen that of the love of outdoor and the mysteries of nature.

20. In the one before this we find in that period when the divisions were in that land now known as Egypt, and the entity among those in the service of the ruler in the divisions, and the entity wrought then in iron, and in the service of that ruler brought much counsel to many. In the urge as is seen - the desire of the service to be to those in power, and in direct communication with that power.

21. As to the abilities, they lie in that way in which the entity may find in the occult and the mystic many, many, developments necessary for that consciousness to the entity of the oneness with the higher forces. Study then those conditions, and let those who would assist take warning.

22. We are through for the present.

Reports

Reports & Follow-up

R1. 8/15/26 Mother’s ltr. to Miss [4586]: “After thinking over the questions which I would like Mr. Cayce to answer. I have come to the conclusion that the following would give me the information I desire most.

What direction from New York is he? From what port did he sail? On what kind of a ship? What is his present physical condition? What is his present mental condition? Is he worrying? Under what influences is he? Motive for this unusual act? Frame of mind at departure? Shall we hear from him? What can be done to locate him? What can be done to influence him to return?

“Of course I shall be glad of ANYTHING supplementing the reading which he can give me.

“Please be sure of my appreciation for what you are doing. I shall await results with great interest and meanwhile accept my wishes for a most gorgeous vacation…”

B1. 6/8/26 Mother’s letter (from … Ave., New York, N.Y.):

”…Your name has been given to me by Miss [4586], … who has spoken very highly of you.

“I have a very great problem, which I trust you will be able to assist me with. I have a son, [2213], Born, December 2nd, 1909, who disappeared from his home, Orange, Massachusetts, on May 26th. There is no trace of him. I have tried every means but up to this writing there has been nothing learned of him. I am a business woman [a widow] and, of course, this worry is a great strain. I would appreciate your giving a reading on this matter and sincerely trust that we can get some help through you.”
