This psychic reading given at the office of the Association, Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 13th day of March, 1943, in accordance with request made by the father - Dr. [2772], Associate Member of the Ass”n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc.

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

Time of Reading … Road, 3:45 P. M. Eastern War Time. …, New York.

1. GC: You will have before you the entity [2779], born 3/10/31, in NYC, and the information given in his Life Reading through this channel [2779-1] on 7/7/42. You will give a Ck. Life Reading for this entity, with information, advice and guidance that will be helpful in bringing about a well-rounded development and the best expression of his abilities. You will then answer the questions he submits, as I ask them, concerning his present unfoldment and his associations from previous incarnations.

2. EC: Yes, we have the information that has been indicated and the interpretation of this entity’s experiences in the earth.

3. To fulfil that as to the better purposes, some application must be made - if there would be helpful influences obtained through these channels. Only the awakening in some portions, but no application as yet has been made as respecting the necessary preparations or studies the body should make. And these must be begun.

4. Then, within a year, two years, three years, there may be given that which would be helpful. This as applied in the present might be only confusing.

5. We are through for the present.

Reports

Reports & Follow-up

R1. 3/15/43 EC’s letter to Dr. [2772]: “Don’t have to tell you, am sure, that I was very much disappointed with results in the attempt to get the Life Reading for [2779]. Do not know what the cause - whether it was the wrong approach, or what, or that not enough time had elapsed before it undertook to help him make up his mind. Am a bit concerned as to just what [2779] will think about it. For, after talking with him a few minutes when last in N.Y., and then seeing he had written his own questions, am sure he was expecting something very definite at this time. Just hope he will not be too badly disappointed and lose patience with it all.

“Will try again a bit later if he will wait on me, or makes some definite decisions as to what he would like to do.”

R2. 3/17/43 EC tried another reading in an attempt to get [2779]‘s questions answered. See 2779-3.

Background

Background

B1. 7/7/42 His parents [2771] and [2772] obtained Life Reading 2779-1 for him, seeking especially an explanation and suggestions for help for [2779]‘s bedwetting, for which doctors had not been able to find a cause or cure.

B2. 1/25/43 Father [2772] wrote: “[2779] is anxious to have another life reading, so please set a date for a Sat. morning.”

B3. 3/9/43 Questions were submitted in [2779]‘s handwriting which he had prepared with his mother’s help: “What should I make my life’s work and how should I prepare for it? At what previous incarnation have I met the following - My mother [2771]; my father [2772]; my younger sister; my older sister; Mark […]; Alan […]; my grandfather […] [paternal grandfather?]? What difficulties should I look out for? How may I control my temper? What books should I read and what people should I meet to prepare me for my life’s work? Should I take up the French horn or continue with the Baritone horn? What languages should I study?”
