This psychic reading given by Edgar Cayce at his home on Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 19th day of July, 1935, in accordance with request made by the self - Mrs. [264], Active Member of the Ass”n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc.
[Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno. [264] and L. B. Cayce.]
Time of Reading Roanoke Cottage, 3:55 to 4:05 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. Virginia Beach, Va. (Physical Suggestion)
-
EC: Yes, we have the body here, [264]; this we have had before.
-
As we find, there are some changes for the better in the general physical forces. However, there needs be rather in the manipulations that which will make for drainages through the system, rather than making for those hindrances in the circulatory forces to the vegetative centers or sympathetic nerve force receiving the greater amount of flow. Hence at those centers where the cerebrospinal and sympathetic are the greater in their coordinant activity, as in the 2nd and 3rd dorsal, 3rd, 4th and 5th cervical, the 4th lumbar, should have the greater attention in the manipulative forces, that the drainages to the general circulation be stimulated for an equalization of the circulatory forces.
-
In the rest of the system we would keep near to those things that have been indicated for the body as to diet, as to stimulation, as to those activities necessary for the greater equalization through the body.
-
Ready for questions.
-
(Q) What causes the swelling in legs and uncomfortable tightness of body? (A) As indicated, the sympathetic nerve forces not stimulated for the drainages. To relieve same make those applications as indicated, in the centers that have been given, which will make for an equalization.
-
(Q) Why do I feel like I’m going to explode when I walk the least bit? (A) Unbalanced in the pressure!
-
(Q) What can be done for the pain in back of neck? (A) Equalize the circulation as indicated from the 2nd and 3rd dorsal, the 3rd, 4th and 5th cervical; and STIMULATE the vagus center.
-
(Q) Can Mr. L. B. Cayce give me these treatments? (A) Can give treatments, but he doesn’t know how! [See 264-48, Par. R5.]
-
(Q) Should I continue with Dr. Crews? (A) Continue with someone that knows how! Whether you want Crews or who!
-
(Q) Is my condition such that I can begin the sand baths now? (A) When the weather conditions permit! By the time the weather permits, the body should be in proper condition for same.
-
(Q) Any other advice at this time that would be of help? (A) Insist on having the connections as indicated in the vegetative or sympathetic nerve forces and the cerebrospinal areas that coordinate in the locomotory centers for the limbs, the arms, the head. Coordinate these FOR DRAINAGES!
-
(Q) Should douches be taken? (A) Be taken when necessary for the keeping for the cleansing of the body. This has been indicated - seven times. Then follow same. Keep in coordinant activity with what has been given. Lay out each reading that has been given; coordinate those with the conditions that exist - and be consistent with it!
-
That is all the questions.
-
We are through with this reading.

Reports & Follow-up
R1. 8/24/35 She referred Mrs. [978] for a Physical Rdg.
R2. 9/19/35 She wrote: “Every phase of my stay at Va. Beach was an experience that seemed to awaken something within me that heretofore had seemed to be asleep or dormant…
“The contact and association with you people in your home can’t be described in words. It was just something one has to THINK - it was a KNOWING of something far too fine to express. It was heavenly to have had access to so much of the information, and I want to thank you so much for helping me as you did, knowing just how busy you are. And your expressions from time to time were, and still are, such an inspiration to me. God grant that I may use what I have gained, as the needs arise.
“To see you folks LIVING day by day what you BELIEVE and what you are TEACHING, has caused me to stop and think - and it has given me a calmness in my soul, that has caused me to realize, for the first time, what it means to be ‘a channel of blessing.’…
“I’ve been getting on so fine physically that I haven’t needed another rdg…”
R3. 10/2/35 She wrote: “I am just fine. When I asked you last summer what you really thought was keeping me from getting well, you said, ‘When you stop running around here and there for someone else to heal you, and know that the God within you can and will heal you, then you will be healed.’ I’ve been thinking of that and trying to follow it ever since.”
R4. 12/18/35 She obtained Ck. Physical Rdg. 264-49.
R5. 6/20/37 She wrote EC: “Have thought of you many, many times since the passing of your father [4/11/37], and have felt both sympathy and gratitude for you. Gratitude that you should have had him with you all of those years, and for his interest and devotion in the work, and sympathy that he should have passed on, especially as he did.
“Am planning to go to the Congress, and shall miss him there. Almost felt as if I should write him a letter telling him I’ll miss him. However, I feel that he will and does know.
“I shall never forget, or cease to appreciate, his interest in me while I was in Cayce Hospital, and of how he encouraged me by always insisting that the desired results always came when the readings were followed in detail, and over and over he told me of different people who had gotten such splendid results by following the readings.
“He encouraged me over many difficult places, and if at any time I can lend a thought that will aid him now in his onward journey, God grant that I may be able to do so.”
