This psychic reading given by Edgar Cayce at the office of the Association, Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 27th day of October, 1943, in accordance with request made by the husband - Mr. […], new Associate Member of the Ass”n for Research and Enlightenment, Inc.

[Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno. (Notes read to and transcribed by Jeanette Fitch.)]

Time of Reading 10:45 to 11:00 A. M. Eastern War Time. …, Ohio.

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; answering the questions, as I ask them:

2. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [3315].

3. The conditions here, as we find, have been so aggravated by animosities, and by hates, that we have a deterioration in the nerve forces along the spinal system; so that this is dementia - and now possession, such that this may appear near to hopeless in this experience.

4. Through the application of low electrical forces as shocks to the body, with patience, care, persistence, there may be aid - if those responsible are active in keeping with divine approbation.

5. Without these, little may be accomplished.

6. We refer to the short wave electrical treatment.

7. Ready for questions.

8. (Q) What was the original cause, or what brought about this condition? (A) Changes in the glandular system, and then aggravated by animosities and hate.

9. (Q) What can be done if patient is not cooperative? (A) Nothing. But do these things.

10. (Q) How often should the electrical treatment be given? (A) At least once a week until there is almost exhaustion to the body, and then there can be the separation - for, with electricity, dissuasion may be used on those influences about the body. But there must then be applied love, care, and prayer.

11. We are through with this reading.

Background

Background

B1. 8/25/43 Husband’s letter: ”…No doubt you are being deluged with letters after the article in CORONET. I hope that this one will not prove one too many… The condition, now of some years standing, concerns my wife, [3315]. She is a confirmed alcoholic, and everything that local medicine can do, has been done. Part of these treatments have been with her cooperation and part without. It now - after the exhaustion of all aid but yours - becomes a matter of help from you, if a separation (by advice of reputable psychiatrists) is the least that must follow or, more seriously still, permanent institutionalizing of the subject as mentioned before. The story of your gift and consequent ability and skill is the first ray of hope I’ve seen in quite some time and I still hope!”

B2. 9/8/43 Husband submitted questions: 1. What is causing the present condition? 2. What can be done to remedy it? 3. What can be done if patient is not cooperative? 4. Is her mind being impaired? If so, what should be done?
