This psychic reading given by Edgar Cayce in Selma, Alabama, this 12th day of July, 1922.

[Edgar Cayce; (?), Conductor; (?), Steno.]

At the residence of Time of Reading …, Millbrook, near Unknown. Montgomery, Ala.

  1. EC: Yes, here we have the body. We have had this body before. Some of the conditions as we find are a great deal different now from what they were at that time. Those will be hard to combat with in this body. Now, these are the conditions as we find throughout this body here, Mrs. [4804], of whom we are speaking.

  2. First, in the circulation we find there conditions that exist both in the blood supplying forces in the system and the organic condition of the blood channels or forces that affect the blood getting away from the heart and it is hard to get back through channels that lead back to the pulmonaries then entering into the heart and at times by this trouble with the circulation we find we have a very low heart action and at times very fast until we have produced by the effect, by the properties that have been given into the circulation, some condition of the heart action itself that is not good. The blood itself we find carrying bacilli, something of the strepto form. These are bad. The action of these pus forming bacilli, or that which is using much of the lymph, produces a very bad capillary condition throughout the entire body, so that we have produced in portions of the system those properties, or those conditions, that become very aggravating to the body at times. In the blood forces, and its supplying branches and action with the blood supply, we find something of the same condition. We find that the effect of blood forces, their inability to give rebuilding forces in natural form over the system, has weakened the resistive force as we find through the nerves and through the will and the body at times becomes very depressed, very despondent and not able to throw off in the blood the improper forces entering from the cerebro-spinal and sympathetic systems, so that the sympathetic forces along the spine have become weakened and so that only by rubbing and quick action are able to keep the units of its forces working to-gether, or to prevent the separation of the spiritual and the physical forces of the body.

  3. In the functioning of the organs, we find the same condition as applied from the brain forces. We find through the pulmonaries an engorged condition, or plethoric condition, yet organically we do not find the condition existing as seriously as we have had it before. There has been some benefit, there is some difference through the pulmonaries and lung forces, but they remain enlarged or engorged, or in a plethoric condition. They do not keep all of the blood, of course, or there would be improper action of the valve forces so that the cardiac forces would be used so as to destroy in itself. The action of the digestive tract is weak and there are only a few things that the body can take that agree with it properly.

  4. If we would bring that which will assist the body to some extent, that which will give more ease to the body, we would take this into the system. First, we would not take any water into the system that does not carry with it the elm bark or slippery elm: 4 grains of the bark, ground, to a glass of water, with the water cool and only give just when it is ready to be taken, just enough to be sufficient to prevent so much fermentation taking place in the stomach, and to assist the stomach to give out to the system those properties so much needed in assisting the circulation, and to assist the nerve forces and the walls of the venous forces themselves to rebuild properly in the system:

Tincture of Wild Cherry Bark…1/2 ounce, Tincture Yellow Dock…1/2 ounce, Saturated Solution Iodide of Potassium…3/4 ounce. Simple Syrup enough to make 4 ounces.

The dose would be one teaspoonful just before each meal, or at those times, for the body does not take meals at all times. After this has been taken into the system, we would through the relaxation method or massage, rather than of adjustment, relax the body sufficiently to assist the entire outer portion of the body to assimilate those properties as taken in the system. Do that and we will find we will bring some relief to the present condition in this body.

  1. We are through.
