This psychic reading given by Edgar Cayce at his home on Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 13th day of May, 1935, in accordance with request made by the self - Mrs. [409], Active Member of the Ass”n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc.

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

Time of Reading 4:25 to 4:30 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. …, Va. (Physical Suggestion)

  1. EC: Yes, we have the body, [409]; and this we have had before.

  2. As we find, there are rather acute conditions that disturb the physical forces of the body in the present. These, as we find, are in the nature of congestion in the organs of the pelvis, particularly in the ovaries; causing such congestion as to produce those pains that are indicated in the abdomen and through the organs of the pelvis. Thus there are the irritations which have arisen in the activity during the menstrual periods.

  3. In making applications in the present, then, we would bathe same with a combination of Laudanum and Aconite across the lower portion of the abdomen, and across the lower portion of the spine, see? just above the hips and the lower portion of the sacrum; one part of Aconite, three parts of Tincture of Laudanum. Then apply wet heat to same, as hot as may be stood by the body. This will relieve the pain.

  4. When there has been sufficient of the stoppage of the flow, well to begin with a douche that would be a combination of the Atomidine and tepid water. This should be very warm; not so hot as to be disturbing, you see; but to a quart of water put a tablespoonful of the Atomidine. Retain same as long as possible before ejection from the vagina. These will tend to make for the relieving of the pressure, the aching, the infectious forces that naturally arise from the congestions through the portions of the system. And these would be continued for periods of twice a day for three to four days. Then rest or leave off for a day or two. Then take three to four days again, until the condition has subsided.

  5. (Q) Are the ovaries infected? (A) As indicated; congestion.

  6. (Q) Is the womb twisted? (A) Bent backward. Be well that there be used local applications by packs to straighten same.

  7. (Q) What causes menstrual period before time? (A) The congestion, as indicated.

  8. We are through with this reading.

Two copies to Self (one for Dr. James R. Parker, Bankers Trust Bldg., Norfolk, Va., so he can prepare the Tincture of Laudanum and Aconite for the area over which heat is to be applied; also so he can apply the local applications by packs to straighten the womb) Copy to Ass’n file
