This Psychic Reading given by Edgar Cayce at the office of the Association, Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 10th day of March, 1942, in accordance with request made by the grandmother - Mrs. [2415], Associate Member of the Ass”n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc.

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

Time of Reading 3:45 to 3:55 P. M. Eastern War Time. Seattle, Washington.

1. GC: You will give the physical condition of the body at the present time, with further suggestions for corrective measures; answering the questions, as I ask them:

2. EC: Yes.

3. As we find, the sources of infection are allayed, - through the bronchi, lungs, as well as that indicated in the liver.

4. But there are those weaknesses that still exist, especially in the body-resistance.

5. Then, there will be required the adhering to some patience, some persistence, in rebuilding or replenishing the body in such a manner as to bring about proper balances.

6. This will be done principally through diet, exercise, and the MANNER of the air or atmosphere - which includes consistency; for it may be very easily overdone, by anxiety expressed about the body, or it may be easily undone by allowing activities that would cause congestions - or the weakened conditions in this developing body to become localized, thus producing a weakness that would later - in this experience - be a source of developing conditions and anxieties.

7. Keep the body warm but in the open often.

8. Above all, keep feet dry.

9. Do have sufficient exercise daily, and this is better had in walking when practical - to make the body tired. Do have the character of exercise that causes the body to use its arms above the head a great deal, to give proper expansion through the lungs.

10. Do give beef juice as medicine, for at least a period of four to six weeks. Give a teaspoonful about every three to four hours, never more than that at once - but do not swallow it all at one time, let it rather be sipped and assimilated by the salivary gland reactions.

11. Do give the whole grain cereals and plenty of citrus fruits in the diet, but these never at the same meal period - rather alternate these from day to day; the fruits being taken one day, the cereals the next, and so on.

12. Rice cakes and popcorn cakes are good.

13. Occasionally, at least twice a week, do give a yeast cake dissolved in a tumbler of tomato juice; though it may require a day to consume the whole amount, in the beginning, do keep it stirred in same.

14. Massage the body daily along the spine, and especially the limbs, the lower limbs and across the shoulders and neck, with a combination of oils in these proportions:

Peanut Oil…1 tablespoonful, Olive Oil…1 teaspoonful, Witchhazel…1 teaspoonful.

Shake these thoroughly, though they do not mix well, before using. Pour in a saucer, dipping fingers in same to massage - but prepare in these proportions.

15. These will make for better conditions, building resistances, keeping down disturbances later with this body.

16. Ready for questions.

17. We are through with this Reading.

Reports

Reports & Follow-up

R1. 7/45 Grandmother, [2415]‘s letter: “[948] and their little family are fine.”

R2. 6/21/72 Brother of [2663] wrote for a copy of rdgs. “on my late sister, [2663].”

R3. 7/20/72 [948], [2663]‘s mother wrote acknowledging receipt of [2663]‘s readings with the following information:

”…[[…], son] has just sent me copies of the readings he requested of [2663] (his sister, my daughter) who crossed over to the other side two years ago. Her whole life was such a trauma that we wanted to see if there were any hints of what was to come [for [2663]] in those early readings. As Mr. Cayce indicated, her body was weak, with low resistance. We followed instructions and she became moderately healthy, physically. But she was retarded mentally and for a long while emotionally disturbed, probably because we didn’t know how to handle it properly. There were differences of opinion among the professionals we consulted. When we finally relaxed and accepted the fact that she was ‘different’ and made no demands of a mental nature on her and placed her in an institution, she overcame the emotional disturbance, seemed contented in that environment, helped others in her sweet way, came home for short visits, and we visited her weekly. At age 33 she became the victim of breast cancer which took her rather quickly - as it spread to other organs after surgery.

“You asked about doctors’ diagnoses of her illness at age 5. It was ‘blood-stream infection’ - and, later, low blood sugar. Also the doctor told us then that she was not normal mentally. But, we didn’t accept that for she talked well with an unusually good memory and was so pretty, physically. There is always the question, in my mind, as to whether her problem was due to brain damage during that illness (such high temperatures) at birth (an instrument baby with bruises), or prenatal deficiencies. That is why I wanted to see those readings again. But there was no answer to this…

“My husband crossed over suddenly (heart attack sitting at his desk, presumably in the best of health at age 61) exactly two months to the date and minute (eerie) after [2663]‘s passing. They were so close, and his grief over her seemed almost unbearable. There seems to be some connection. The doctors could find no other reason…”
