This Psychic Reading given by Edgar Cayce at his office, 115 West 35th Street, Virginia Beach, Va., this 1st day of January, 1927, in accordance with request made by her husband, Mr. […].

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

Vaughan Memorial Time of Reading Hospital, 12:00 Noon - Eastern Standard Time. Selma, Alabama.

1. GC: You will go over this body carefully, examine it thoroughly, and tell me the conditions you find at the present time. You will diagnose the case thoroughly, giving the cause of the existing conditions; also the treatment for the cure and relief of this body.

2. EC: Yes. Now, we find the conditions with this body are rather serious. That as is being applied for the system is very good. The response has not as yet been that as is desired, for the condition seemingly has been that the body physically continues to wear itself out. The reaction in the system is of the nature that, if localized, may be combated with, provided same does not centralize on some vital organ that brings greater distress directly either to the brain or the heart’s action. Hence we would only add that of the Ultra Violet Rays to the conditions being accorded, and to bring greater STABILITY we would massage gently the cerebro-spinal system with equal parts of olive oil and myrrh. This will prevent the system’s absorbing those conditions thrown off by this overtaxing to the nerve centers directly to the cerebro-spinal column, for distributing same through this massage, as well as the stability given to those centers that are exercised by this property, will assist the eliminations. The conditions, as we see, are produced from these:

3. The cellular forces in the system show that the nerve centers have become re-infected through the conditions in body that border on that of a paresis condition, though not the condition of STOPPING the reaction, but rather of destroying that incentive for proper reaction in the nerve itself. Hence this undue action of brain, undue action in the temperature, and the undue action in the system’s absorbing that as given. Hence the little internal medicines, yet that that acts properly - as is being given in the hypodermic - and the added condition of rest as much as possible - but that clarifying condition for the blood in the rays, and the application of those for the cerebro-spinal centers - for, UNLESS this is changed - we will find a centralization either at brain or about the heart plexus.

4. Do as we have given for the present.

5. Heat oil before tincture of myrrh is added, see? Only use sufficient quantity for the massage at each time - three to four tablespoonsful of each.

6. The rays would only be applied once each day.

7. (Q) For how long a time? (A) Five to ten minutes each application, and at least twenty to twenty-two inches from the body.

8. (Q) Should this be done during the day or in the evening? (A) The massage may be given twice a day, morning and evening. The rays should be, preferably, in evening.

9. (Q) Any further instructions regarding this body? (A) Do as we have given here. Keep those that have been applied - diminishing the stimulant, though, as fast as is possible.

10. We are through for the present.

REMARKS

(You will please state in the space below how near, in your opinion, reading fits your condition, as you know it yourself, and if you expect to carry out the suggestions made for the improvement of your health.)

The reading seems to fit as far as I can judge. I regret to say however that the doctor absolutely refuses to have anything to do with your suggestions. I enclose a cheque for $5.00 and regret that at present I cannot make it more as I feel that you have done your part.

With most sincere thanks I am

Very truly yours

ADDRESS …, Mobile, Ala.

(Kindly advise us in the space below if you have followed all, or any part, of the suggestions given in your reading of January 1, 1927, and give us in detail the exact results you have obtained.)

I am sorry to say I cannot give you any information as the doctors absolutely refused to have anything to do with Mr. Cayce’s instructions. Mrs. [4455] is now in Mobile where she is, I trust, slowly recovering.

Mrs. [4455]‘s hospital expenses are about TWICE my income so that at present I am unable to help your good cause. I am however in sympathy with it and, with your permission, will retain your card and when the time comes that I can contribute to the work Mr. Cayce is doing I surely hope to do so.

Yours truly,
