This psychic reading given by Edgar Cayce at his home on Arctic Crescent, Va. Beach, Va., this 10th day of August, 1932, in accordance with request made by self, Mrs. [265], through her daughter Mrs. [538], and her grandson Mr. [341].

[Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno. Mrs. [265], Mildred Davis and Hugh Lynn Cayce.]

Time of Reading 11:10 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. …, Kentucky. (Physical Suggestion)

1. EC: Yes, we have the body, Mrs. [265], present in this room - this we have had before.

2. Now, as we find, there are changes in the physical conditions - and the disturbances in the body at present that prevent a normal physical functioning - from that we had before. While many conditions at present are apparent from that as given, the result or effects of these disturbing forces are somewhat different.

3. The conditions in the present are more from the toxic forces that are produced in the system by poisons from non-eliminations, than from other causes. That organs and their functionings have long been under the strain of these conditions is apparent, from the manner in which many are affected in their functioning - as well as organically disturbed. These are seen in the manners in which, when the colon is full, the breathing is affected; and later or during the same period, pressures upon the organs of elimination make the tendencies of an over-activity of the kidneys, and the drying more and more of the muco-membranes that form for the lymph activity through the digestion and alimentary canal. Hence we find the stomach becomes upset, and the eliminations becoming less and less makes for those pressures still that exist in portions of the system; yet not as severe in the extremities as formerly, but affecting now more and more the hepatic circulation - through the effect that is created to the head and neck, and to the breathing or the action of the respiratory system. These forms of poisons arise most in the present from the colon, and are contributory, then, to the effects that are created in the liver, the spleen, the kidneys, the functioning of these and the organs themselves. [Bronchitis?]

4. In meeting, then, the needs of these conditions in the present, it will be found necessary that the organs’ functioning, as well as the organic conditions and disturbances, be taken into consideration when applications are made for beneficial effects to be created in the system.

5. First, as we find, there is the lack of oxygen in the blood and in the activities of the system. Hence the feelings of repression, or of the smothery feelings that come with the activities in any manner where the amounts of oxygen are cut off, or even reduced.

6. Then, we find the taking of those properties that may be had in the Animated Ash would be beneficial to the body. We would take, then, one-eighth grain at least each day, just before retiring.

7. It would be well that the body have sufficient sunshine and air during the mornings, that the reaction of these in the system may be more thorough throughout (that is, the properties of Animated Ash). Hence the sunshine along the back would be MOST helpful.

8. In the evenings also before retiring, the use of the electrically driven vibrator along the whole cerebro-spinal system will be found to be helpful; for this will enable all centers along the cerebro-spinal system to receive a greater impulse from their activity, enabling all organs to be stimulated without the excess of one’s functioning so much under the strain of the tautness of another. Especially would this be helpful, that those centers in the upper dorsal and cervical area receive stimulation; also across the lower portion of the body, or the lumbar area.

9. The activities of the alimentary canal, and the effects that are had from pressures on bladder, pressures in the liver area - these need the effect of a stimuli to create for the system more lymph circulation, that the eliminations may be aided, and less tendency of over-stimulating the secretions in the stomach, thus emptying same of the lymph that is so needed oft in creating the necessary lactic foods for proper assimilation.

10. As we would find, these - then - would be the most helpful under the existent conditions, but should be alternated in such manners as not to become non-effective or non-active, rotating in a manner that will be effective for the system:

11. Occasionally, too, there should be the elimination or evacuation of the lower colon, with the use of the high enemas that will enliven the system in such a manner - by the use of proper antiseptics following such evacuations - that will remove the pressure on the pelvic organs, as well as relieving the breathing that is hindered by the dilation of the colon in the transverse and descending area - the transverse and descending, or as they turn in this portion of the colon area. After the use of the water for evacuation, there should be made another solution wherein the antiseptics would be put. The better for this, as we find, would be Glyco-Thymoline - a tablespoonful to each quart of water that is used for the last injections.

12. To aid in overcoming the tendency of constipation, that is so harmful - and has been for long periods to the body, as to so affect the system, we would take:

13. One day a whole bottle (900 drops) of Castoria, in very small doses - half a teaspoonful every half hour.

14. The next day take a tablespoonful of Milk of Bismuth.

15. The next day take two tablespoonsful of Milk of Magnesia.

16. The next day take phenolphthalein, or Phenolax, as may be had in two tablets or wafers.

17. Then the next day return again to the Castoria. At least three rounds of these, followed consecutively day by day, should be taken, that the evacuations or eliminations in the colon may be effective. Taken in these manners, and with the vibrations that may be given with the stimulation through the electrically driven vibrator, we will not disturb the activities of the organs as affected - the liver, the kidneys, and the bladder - the stomach, the respiratory system - to such an extent as to make other than a little weakness; but this - if kept in the proper way and manner - will bring about much bettered conditions for this body, Mrs. [265].

18. Ready for questions.

19. (Q) Which applicator of the vibrator should be used? (A) The cup or suction.

20. (Q) What should be done for the cough? (A) We have given this. We are removing the pressure, and the taking of those properties that eliminate the pressures in the system will relieve the condition which produces same, as well as the small quantities of Ash that should be taken each day. Just before retiring will be the better period for same.

21. (Q) What about the diet and appetite? (A) Not an over amount; neither will there be the desire, until after the second or third round of these properties are given - that are necessary for the eliminations. Then, those foods that are stimulating in their effect upon the whole general system, and that are nerve and blood building. As we find, those that carry sufficient nourishment for the body.

22. (Q) Is there any complication of heart trouble? (A) The effect had upon the organs of the hepatic circulation naturally affects the circulation. Organically, no heart disturbance. The hard breathing naturally makes for quick pulsations [Tachycardia], but not so much in the heart’s activity. Not a complication in this direction. To prevent such complications are the considerations being given the various effects; for, as we find:

The properties combined in the Castoria will affect the kidneys, the liver, the whole hepatic circulation directly. The active principle is the senna, but the other elements that are added when taken in small quantities - are assimilated to the circulation and will not irritate the functioning of the organs that are exercised, as a laxative.

The properties in the Milk of Magnesia are to take away from the muco-membranes, or the lymph circulation through the circulation of the hepatics, any inflammation; yet tending to make for the using up of those portions that adhere to the walls of the intestines, so that there is the tendency at times for this to become obnoxious to the body, as it causes a strain especially on the duodenum to evacuate and cleanse same. Hence the necessity of the occasional use of the enema, followed by the antiseptic cleansing.

Then the phenolphthalein, or the activity from the use of the wafers, is to act as a sedimentary to the draining of those portions of the duodenum and the jejunum, that will relieve those pressures in the heart area - that causes the cough, or the respiratory reaction.

Then, when this is repeated again, we will gradually CLEANSE the system - see?

These do not become destructive forces, then, to the organs that are involved.

The activity of the Ash is to produce the releasing of oxygen proper within the system. Take dry and wash down with water, which releases the oxygen in the system rather than (that is, in the digestive system) being released by the application of the ultra-violet light, which makes the releasing directly to the lungs themselves. Taken in this manner it will act with all portions of the alimentary canal, as to make for greater releasing - and will affect the pressure that is produced on the kidney and bladder area, relieving those inflammations there more than in other portions. [10/18/52 Comment by D. H. Fogel, M.D., heart specialist: “265-6 Par., 22-A - Active Principles of Magnesia, Castoria - Animated Ash function.”]

The vibrations given in the electrically driven vibrator are to stimulate those centers (with this enlivening of the organs of the body, in the digestive and eliminating system) from the nerve plexus along the cerebro-spinal system, so that their activity produces nearer a normal impulse than is exercised by taking large quantities of cathartics - that will relieve the pressures for the moment, but not the causes. These stimulations should be especially in the upper dorsal and cervical area, or 3rd and 4th dorsal and to the brachial plexus; then from the 3rd and 4th cervical to the upper portion - which will relieve all pressures sympathetically to the upper portion, or to the digestive portion. The stimulations in the lumbar region will relieve those pressures to the eliminating portion, or to the hepatic circulation.

Do as we have outlined, and we will find bettered conditions.

23. We are through for the present.
