This psychic reading given by Edgar Cayce at his home on Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 15th day of October, 1940, in accordance with request made by the husband - Mr. […], new Associate Member of the Ass”n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc., recommended by Mrs. [1628]”s husband.

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

Time of Reading 11:15 to 11:35 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. …, N.C.

  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. You will answer the questions, as I ask them:

  2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [2382].

  3. Now as we find, there are disturbances that prevent the better physical functioning of the body. These have to do with the glandular system as related to eliminations, and especially the changes in the functioning of the organs of the pelvis.

  4. We find that these arise from very definite subluxations, and cause MENTAL reactions also; the melancholia at times, oft the inability to rest without some form of sedative, and the reactions in the desires as to appetites, associations. Thus there is a general NERVOUS condition resulting from these subluxations.

  5. These, then, are the conditions as we find them with this body, [2382] we are speaking of:

  6. In the nerve system, - subluxations exist in the coccyx end of the spine, in the 4th lumbar as connected with the axis or the cerebrospinal center in the sacral area. Also there are those tendencies for a curve in the 8th and 7th dorsal center.

  7. These as we find are the SOURCES of the disturbance, as to the nerve forces, the sympathetic reactions, the activities of the system as related to the abilities for assimilation, digestion, appetites, and the reflexes even for the brain forces.

  8. As we find, these may be materially aided. It will require a little patience and persistence.

  9. But begin with first the adjustments. In the beginning these should be given three times each week, for they will not be given too heavy at first, until ten or fifteen have been taken.

  10. Then have a rest period from these for a week.

  11. THEN have the adjustments about twice each week; these taken then for another series of some fifteen to eighteen adjustments.

  12. These we would have administered by one who uses the good mechanical actions in the OSTEOPATHIC manner of adjustments. Do these in Raleigh.

  13. After the end of the first series of adjustments, at the beginning of the rest period of a week, we would begin with the use of the Radio-Active Appliance to equalize the nerve energies of the body as related to the circulatory system, and especially as to the impulses to the body. Attach this about an hour each day. Use that period as the period for prayer and meditation; though it may require someone at first to work WITH the body when this is first begun. And have the prayerful meditation for the HELPFUL forces, not only those that may exercise themselves through the system but as to the body using itself - mentally, physically - in a helpful manner for others.

  14. We would take precautions that the activities ABOUT the entity are sympathetic, but NOT of the nature as to cause the entity to become more aware of its condition, or to become so sorry for self. Rather have the activities and companionships that seek the relationships to THINGS as well as to people.

  15. Do these.

  16. Ready for questions.

  17. (Q) Why is she so afraid and unable to become interested in anything? (A) It is the pressure as indicated upon the nervous systems, that causes incoordination between the sympathetic and the cerebrospinal system. Thus we have at times even some irritations to portions of the skin, the loss of appetite and at other times the innate desire for things. But these as we find should all be helped, corrected, if the adjustments are made properly.

These, to be sure, in the coccyx, the lumbar, the lower dorsal and through the dorsal area, will be coordinated with the upper dorsal and cervicals, as adjustments are made.

As indicated, have the adjustments three times each week for the first fifteen treatments. Do not attempt to make too much change in the beginning. It is necessary that the administrator of these gain the confidence, and the purposes for which such adjustments are being made.

Keep away from sedatives; though if any is taken, take rather the form such as Aspirin - but with the Soda-Mint tablets, see?

  1. We are through for the present.
