This Psychic Reading given by Edgar Cayce at the office of the Association, Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 21st day of April, 1944, in accordance with request made by the self - Mrs. [5062], new Associate Member of the Ass”n for Research and Enlightenment, Inc., recommended by the book, THERE IS A RIVER.

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

Time of Reading Set bet. 3:30 to 4:30 P. M. Eastern War Time. …, Ill.

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, - sad conditions here, as a result of prenatal disturbances. The affectation to and in the organs of the pelvis has gradually spread through the system.

3. We find that these may gradually be eliminated. It will require long periods of applications, because the organs of the pelvis, the ovaries, the organs that are in sympathy - as in soft tissue through other portions of the body - have become affected by the conditions.

4. First, we would give that the body have at least every other day a vaginal douche; one time using Glyco-Thymoline a tablespoon to the quart of water, body temperature; the next time using Atomidine - or, preferably, we would use every other day the Atomidine - say, on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays - at least a teaspoonful of the Atomidine in a quart of body-temperature water. Then once a week, say on Sundays, we would use the Glyco-Thymoline, almost commercial strength; that is, in the proportions of three ounces of Glyco-Thymoline to each six ounces of water, body temperature.

5. At least once each week we would have the short wave electrical treatment.

6. Do not use the douches through the menstrual periods, of course, but after using them for a month, use the Glyco-Thymoline douche twice right after the periods - or two times in succession before beginning the Atomidine douches for the next month.

7. Twice each week do massage over the areas of the lungs, the ovaries, the soft tissue about the pubic bone as well as in the groin, with an equal combination of Mutton Tallow (melted), Spirits of Turpentine and spirits of Camphor. Preferably this should be massaged not only into the areas of the soft tissue, but through that period in the evening when it is massaged into the areas, cover with a flannel that has been saturated in this combination. Do this in the temple, in the throat, in those areas wherever the emunctories and soft tissue come closer to the surface; as under the arms, around the breasts and the mammary glands especially.

8. Doing these, with the douches taken, and the taking internally of the properties we will indicate, we find that we may rid the body of the eczema that occurs on portions of the body, as well as gradually eradicating the condition from the system.

9. Each day, preferably in the evening, drink cup of Mullein Tea. This should be made fresh daily. Put a pinch of dried Mullein (as between the thumb and forefinger) in a cup, and fill with boiling water, allow to stand for thirty minutes, strain and drink.

10. Do not take fats or butter or much of meats. A little fish occasionally may be taken, and occasionally fowl, but never any of this fried.

11. Plenty of raw vegetables, especially water cress, carrots and lettuce.

12. Being consistent, being persistent, we will bring better conditions eventually - we can eradicate this from system.

13. Ready for questions.

14. (Q) Why dose my face swell? (A) The circulation from affected areas. After about two to three months, gradually we will find - if we use the short wave as given - we should have no more of this trouble, but we will still have trouble with the other portions; as of the discharge, as of the areas that have to be cleansed from the system.

Do keep eliminations through alimentary canal rather high. Use vegetable compounds that have a senna base, as the eliminants. Do use these especially right after the menstrual periods.

15. (Q) Should there be any local application for eczema on nipples? (A) No local application yet. This should come a little bit later, but not as yet. After at least six months of following these treatments, we will give further instructions. Do as indicated. We are through with this reading.

Reports

Reports & Follow-up

R1. 6/1/44 Letter: “First of all I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for the wonderful psychic reading… What a relief it is to know what is the matter with me, after all of these years and better still, how it all can be eradicated from my system. I have absolute faith in your work, and may you never lose your power. My husband and I had some difficulty in finding the Atomidine, which you suggested that I use, but finally found it, and it is wonderful. You also asked me to use the short wave electrical treatments and you wanted the name of the doctor whom I would choose to give me the treatments. My husband gives them to me, and he has bought the short wave set, as he is so anxious for me to get well. He also gives me the massage treatments, as massage any way is his life work. Already I feel like a different person from what few treatments I have already had. I know that in 6 months time I will be almost completely well. Again, I thank you.”

[Note: Three months later, the final reading, a Check Physical, 5062-2, was given.]

Background

Background

B1. 1/20/44 Husband’s letter: “I have just finished reading your book ‘There Is A River’. I think it is a wonderful book, and the work you have been doing is outstanding. Only by the help of God can work like yours be accomplished…”

B2. 2/14/44 Husband’s letter: “I received the application blanks and booklet a few weeks ago. My wife has been sick for a number of years. We have tried every doctor that we thought could help her, but no luck; she has been doctoring with one doctor since last April; in January 1944, the doctor informed us there wasn’t anything medical science could do to help her… We would appreciate a Physical Reading as soon as possible…”

B3. 3/44 Case History: “Sickly as a child, had poor resistance and got all the children’s diseases that came along. At the age of 16, a whitish discharge started. So far to the present time, medical science claims they cannot cure it.

“At 18 a rheumatic condition developed; was unable to walk for several months. So far to today, the soreness is still in my body.

“At 19 I had albumin in the kidneys, but checked this after a few months with diet.

“At 24, I got infection of the kidneys and was hospitalized. At 25 years, not feeling any better, had a complete kidney examination and doctors found a dropped right kidney.

“At 28, was very sick, I was losing weight - discharge very bad - menstrual periods very irregular and close together - and to sum everything up, was just sick. Doctor said I needed an operation of appendix, another said I had lung trouble, etc. Discouraged, I went to another, who said most of my trouble was an ovarian condition - treats me for that, but if I miss taking a treatment, the trouble flares up and hard to get into control again. My face swells nearly every morning, and the doctor said he didn’t know why - am very tired most of the time - nervous - have severe headaches - pain in my back and up thru my shoulders and back of my neck

• feel nauseated after eating. In January, the doctor said there wasn’t much medical science could do for me, only temporary relief from the treatments.”

(1) What can be done for the eczema on my nipples? (2) Why am I hourly changeable? One hour I might feel good, and the next hour, feel and look terrible. In October 1943, I was hospitalized for inflammation of the tubes and ovaries - treated me with sulfa drugs. [The additional questions submitted are at end of 5062-1.]
