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

Time of Reading 11:00 to 11:15 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. New York City.

1. GC: You will have before you the body and enquiring mind of [459], … St., Penthouse A, N.Y.C., in regard to her health, and particularly in regard to the educating of her children, [1856] & [2444]. You will answer the questions she has submitted, as I ask them:

2. EC: Yes, we have the body, the enquiring mind, [459].

3. Ready for questions.

4. (Q) Regarding [1856]: In 1942 there will be a law passed that no student shall be accepted at Hebrew Union College unless he has a degree, thereby delaying the religious atmosphere for three years by remaining at New York University. If [1856] goes to University of Cincinnati and takes so many hours a week at Hebrew Union College he will then accomplish both and graduate maximum 8 years, a possibility of summer courses and graduation sooner. If a degree is achieved then only four years of Hebrew Union College work. Which is the better arrangement, now or to await three years. (A) As we find, when all things are considered, it would be better to begin in the present and not wait until the degree is attained and then the four years. For, he may be through with the whole period in six years.

5. (Q) Should I get in touch with Dr. Morgenstten or have [1856] handle situation? (A) Have [1856] handle the situation, and if there is the desire for a confirmation from self, indicate that this may be had - and this would be a part of the whole procedure. Have [1856] make the associations, and handle it there.

6. (Q) What is Morgenstten’s attitude toward [1856]‘s becoming a student at H.U.C.? (A) Ask him and see!

7. (Q) Would [1856] find it for better understanding to live at “Dormitory” of Hebrew Union College? (A) As has been indicated for each of the children, better that the mother make the home for them. This we would do in Cincinnati, as well as in New York; and during that Period there may be work done by the mother in attaining the activity in the direction of the conditions as we have indicated would be well for the mother to take up at this time.

8. (Q) What about the exam for entrance. Can [1856] pass it? (A) Try it and see! When it is considered as to the variation, to [1856] this will be very easy.

9. (Q) When should he leave, if he is to go? (A) Time to enter school!

10. (Q) Should we associate with Rockdale Ave. or Plum St. temple? (A) This should be the choice of each of the entities.

11. (Q) Should I take a course in Interior Decoration in Cincinnati? (A) As has been indicated. [See 459-12, Par. 51-A.]

12. (Q) What would be the best “major” for [1856] at University? (A) That needed for the degrees for the carrying on of the work that he is proposing to do. This comes according to what is needed, see?

13. (Q) Any advice about health or general improvement for him? (A) Just keep in those ways that are well known.

14. (Q) Will he be the “David” as told in the prophecy? Has he the making? (A) It is not a prophecy as of David, but as of the forerunner.

15. (Q) Give suggestions for good and welfare of his career. (A) Keep in the faith that makes the promises literal, real, daily.

16. (Q) Regarding [2444]: Would it be best for [2444] to go to University of Cincinnati? (A) As has been indicated. There should be the establishing of the home, and this would require or make the better circumstances now that they be kept together; the mother preparing or making the home and keeping them together.

17. (Q) What major at University? (A) As has been indicated as to the training.

18. (Q) Would teaching lower grades be best? (A) IF that is what is desired. It will be as one who is well adapted especially in the care of the young. If this is the desire of the entity, make the preparations for same.

It has been indicated in that given as to the life’s work. Either accept it or reject it. If you accept it, then do as indicated.

19. (Q) Any suggestions for good and welfare of health, etc.? (A) Just keep in the faith.

20. (Q) What should the year of 1942 bring to the entity? (A) Depends on what the entity puts into its service to others, and its way of attaining to and keeping the faith with itself and its Maker.

21. (Q) Any suggestions regarding my own health? [See 459-11.] (A) These have been outlined and indicated for the body. There needs be only the following of those directions given.

22. We are through for the present.

Reports & Follow-up

R1. 9/15/41 “The rdg. was swell. I shall try and carry out to the best of my ability. [1856] was very much pleased to know that he might make the HUC in six years, so we shall go to Cincinnati on Wed. Many, many thanks for the early reply.” [She requested rdg. 2588-2 for her brother.] [See 1856-1 Reports.]

R2. 11/3/41 “When I feel the urge to go out into business, for we must make ends meet, we [[1856], [2444] and I] talk things over and give up this or that until my course is completed at Univ. of Cincinnati. Leads to a B.S. in Applied Art and I love it. I’d love to design furniture for brother [257]‘s factory but I can’t draw. Maybe I’ll develop it. So far I am accomplishing quite a bit - only go twice a wk. in evening, as I have my household duties, etc. …I’m enclosing a ck. for my membership dues and each mo. I shall send a dollar for the ‘vault.’”

R3. 1/14/42 “Getting ready for exams. - applied arts - I am also taking my home furnishings, furniture, as per the rdg.” [See 1/42 ltrs. & EC’s replies under her mother’s Life Rdg. 325-63 Reports.]

R4. 5/21/42 She reported on children’s rdgs., 1856-1 and 2444-1, and submitted questions about her own and their affairs.

R5. 5/22/42 See 459-14.

Background

B1. See 459-12 on 1/30/41 and subsequent Reports.

B2. 8/29/41 She submitted questions, saying: “[1856]‘s rdg. about 2 yrs. ago said Cincinnati (Hebrew Union College). I wrote to Univ. of Cincinnati. Both [1856] and [2444] were accepted there. [1856] needs a lot of Hebrew to get into HUC… If [1856] wants to go there he would possibly have to get in before 1942 or else await three more years. Now the question arises, should we go to Cincinnati in Sept. 1941 and get in on the eight year course or await the degree and take four years straight HUC? Rabbi Wm. F. Rosenblum, who has been taking so much interest in [1856], believes it best to go this fall.”
