This Psychic Reading given by Edgar Cayce at the office of the Association, Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 30th day of May, 1944, in accordance with request made by the self - Miss [5262], new Associate Member of the Ass”n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc., recommended by the article in Coronet.

[Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis and Jeanette Fitch, Stenos.]

Born October 22, 1907, in Chicago, Illinois. Time of Reading Set bet. 3:30 to 4:30 P. M. Eastern War Time. …, Illinois.

1. GC: You will give the relations of this entity and the universe, and the universal forces; giving the conditions which are as personalities, latent and exhibited in the present life; also the former appearances in the earth plane, giving the development for the entity; giving the abilities of the present entity, that to which it may attain, and how. You will answer the questions, as I ask them:

2. EC: Yes, we are given the records here of that entity now known as or called [5262].

3. In giving the interpretations of the records as we find them, there is much to choose from, but we would choose that which we find would be helpful to the body, this body-entity, in better fulfilling the purposes for which it entered this present sojourn.

4. There are many abilities in the experience of the entity, many of those influences which bear upon urges latent and manifested. As we find from that which we consider the personality and the individuality of the entity, these are characteristics as well as the latent and manifested abilities:

5. One whose sense of humor has and will oft save many an unpleasant situation. Keep that humor! Rather cultivate same. Entertain it, and use it also in thy abilities as a singer, as a teacher, as an announcer.

6. For, as we find, where there is the combining of the abilities, this entity should make those preparations and efforts to use its abilities on radio, stage or the like. An appreciation of the dramatic is a part of the experience. This, too, will come in handy and should be cultivated. When the entity undertakes to apply itself in those fields, as we find, it will not be merely materially successful but can through same contribute to the good of others. Remember, from the spiritual purposes for which a soul enters a material experience, it is not by chance alone. But there have been periods just passed, there will be through this year, next year, many souls entering, needing, desiring, building, preparing, even through these periods of stress for peace, just as there will be those with hate, and with those things that must be curbed if there will come the harmony in the earth.

7. There is needed in entertainment those activities where the abilities of the entity may be used to the encouragement, to the unfoldment of others, humor and in a lovely voice.

8. Those changes which brought those periods of lack of the use of the same have not hindered, provided there is used in same the humor of, the feeling of the spirit with which the entity may use its abilities as a singer, a teacher, and a dramatic director in its relationships to others.

9. As to the appearances in the earth, not all may be indicated, but these as the pattern:

10. Before this we find the entity was in the land of the present nativity around Chicago, or rather as Dearborn, with the activities which followed the destruction of the Fort and then the reclaiming.

11. The entity was then known as Jane Greely (not ley). In the experience the entity was an instructor and from the activities saw what was a country place gradually built into a metropolitan center. The city, not the country, is for the entity, where there are large crowds and groups. The entity will gain from the vibrations of groups.

12. Thus the necessity of the entity itself tuning, as it were, into the activities in which it may become and does become a part. Thus may the entity be the contributor to the efforts, and join no program without special service being rendered certain groups, or of the fellowman and principally to ladies.

13. Before that we find the entity was in the Spanish land when there were the beginnings of the records for expansion, just after there began to be groups sent out from the Spanish land. The entity then was among those who were with those groups for entertainment of those in authority in the new world, or in what is now a portion of South America and later of even Mexico.

14. Thus that language, not that it is so easy, yet it has an urge for the entity in the fire, the love, as may be expressed, manifested in body-movements, as well as the song itself. In the name then Maria Jurelz.

15. Before that, we find the entity was in the Egyptian land when there were those changes being brought by the activities which brought about the departure of the children of promise. The entity was among those who suffered through stubbornness, hardness of heart, the unreasonableness of the Pharaoh destroying. The entity then, though was among those not of the common people, yet not of those in the king’s household but those in authority under the king. The entity saw and suffered much.

16. In the present the suffering makes for awareness and yet abilities for the body to speak, to sing in such a manner as to bring hope even to those who have lost their loved ones. In the name then Sieune.

17. Before that we find the entity was in the Egyptian land when there were those activities with the Priest Ra-Ta. The entity was among the daughters of Ra-Ta, active in the developing of the songs in the periods of activities in the Temple Beautiful.

18. The entity then was a musician upon the lyre as well as the conductor of the music in the temple worship, as well as that to arouse the activities of the peoples. In the name then Ineul-Ian.

19. As to the abilities of the entity, then:

20. As indicated, as a teacher, as a musician, as a dramatic activity, do prepare for radio activities.

21. Ready for questions.

22. (Q) What can I do to get rid of irrelevant words which sometimes disturb, particularly when I sing? (A) By the analysis of self and, as it applies itself to those activities in the varied spheres of its experience, used it may in the present wield an influence upon the lives of others. Be creative. Trust in the Lord, for He is the way and the truth and the light, and without that purpose, little of long-lasting or of creative or of helpful forces may be wholly thine.

23. We are through for the present.

Reports

Reports & Follow-up

R1. 7/17/44 Letter: “I want to express to you my deep gratitude for the reading… It is like a beacon light. It has given me courage and confidence and optimism and a sense of belonging to the scheme of things. I wish everyone who is perplexed and troubled could be blessed with a reading.”

R2. 9/6/47 Letter: “I have been most appreciative of the life reading which your beloved leader so graciously gave to me. It has been a divine inspiration which has brought me constantly closer to the master. Certain experiences in previous life time, as outlined in the reading confirmed strong impressions I had previous to the receipt of the reading. It did not, however, cover all of my recollections. No doubt additional information was revealed in the original reading which was not shown in the transcript I received. To further your research, I have outlined briefly the recollections which have been very strong for confirmation. I have been a student of the Higher Truths revealed through Edgar Cayce for 6 years, and have studied under a Yogi of Realization of the Vedanta Order of India, so that additional information will be properly utilized. I have vivid recollections of experiences in a lifetime in France, including associations with the then Court of France and execution on the guillotine. I also have recollections of being in the orient during precarious times. It would be greatly appreciated if all information revealed in the original reading which was not sent at that time, could be made available to me. I can assure you that regardless of its import, it would be properly used and interpreted. I would also be interested to know if the work is being carried on and if the great master has provided an instrument through which the Divine contacts of Edgar Cayce could be continued.”

R3. 9/9/47 HLC’s letter: ”…I have gone over your reading and would appreciate it very much if you would give us a report on your reading so we can complete our record on you. (1) Was the reading correct in mentioning your sense of humor? (2) Have you been able to follow the suggestion regarding the use of your voice as a singer, teacher or announcer? (3) Do you agree with the reading that the city, not the country, is the place for you? (4) How do you feel about working with large groups and crowds? (5) Have you felt any particular urge about the Spanish language, or interest in Spanish countries or things?… It was customary for all of the information given to be supplied to you… I am looking forward to visiting Chicago…and hope to have the opportunity of meeting and talking with you at that time…”

R4. 9/29/49 Questionnaire sent. No reply.

R5. 7/22/60 Letter re checking source material for information relating to her early American incarnation as Jane Greely: ”…I consulted many reference books in the Chicago Historical Society but neither the librarian nor I could find Jane Greely mentioned. However, the only complete list of names is that of those who were massacred.

“I very much appreciate the Edgar Cayce reading. It has been a source of inspiration and guidance, and I am sorry I cannot give you more information.”
