This Psychic Reading given by Edgar Cayce at his home on Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 23rd day of March, 1937, in accordance with request made by the self, Active Member of the Ass”n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc.

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

Time of Reading 4:00 to 4:10 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. …, Kentucky. (Physical Suggestion)

1. EC: Yes, we have the body, [528].

2. While conditions as we find are far from being entirely satisfactory, there is much improvement shown in many ways - that should be most gratifying to the body, as well as to those so anxious about the conditions.

3. As we find in the present a disturbance arises most from lack of activity to make for the proper character and the proper manner of eliminations.

4. Hence those tendencies are existent for the hepatic circulation to gather the poisons that are so much being thrown off, and to tend to make for temperature that becomes rather aggravating to the circulation.

5. Then in those portions of the lymph circulation there is the hardening of the muscular forces in the activities - as through the shoulders and the neck, and as portions of the lower limbs and across the abdomen. These very influences then, of course, tend to make for a formation of gas.

6. We would not change or alter so very much, then, the properties that have been indicated, in blood building, blood purifying, the rubs and the vibratory forces for making for the better coordination with the low electrical forces.

7. The Appliance should be kept, of course, much in the manner as has first been indicated. Keep the plates very clean, and not a rigid but a positive connection to the body when they are applied.

8. As we would find, the enemas of warm (not hot but body temperature) saline solutions; that is, soda and salt both would be well; and if it is necessary use the high colon tube so that the gas is carried off from the system. If such enemas are taken once a week or once in ten days, these will be most helpful in keeping down the poisons and preventing their reaction or reabsorption by the activity of an already disturbed circulation. The proportions of the salines would be a level teaspoonful of baking soda and a heaping teaspoonful of table salt to each quart of water, body temperature, well dissolved in same. This is rather saline but combined will be preventative for irritation and for other disturbances. Use in the last water (after the saline solution has been used and the enema bag rinsed) a tablespoonful of Glyco-Thymoline to the quart of tepid water.

9. Also three to four times a day we would take internally small quantities of Pure Olive Oil. Do not take so much as to cause overfermentation; quarter teaspoonful or a few drops is much better than a tablespoonful for this body.

10. We would keep most of the same in the diets, the inhalations.

11. The inhalations will soon need to be recharged, or the keg refilled with the solution - for it is the evaporation that takes place, you see. Put another half gallon into the keg, you see; and these we find should make for greater improvements for the body.

12. Keep the rubs and all of those as indicated.

13. Well for the body to be as active as possible, but not to overtire the body. If the body walks about the house or even in the open air - that is, sits where there is plenty of air if not walking about - this is much better. Even riding in the open is well if the body finds that its strength allows same. Just take care in seeing that the body is wrapped up. For these are well for the changing of scenes, and some activity gives better outlook for the body.

14. Ready for questions.

15. (Q) Are we giving the Appliance correctly? (A) As indicated, keep the plates clean. Make a positive though not too binding connection.

16. (Q) Shall we continue the Oil Packs? (A) These are very necessary. Do not have them too hot but have them so that the body absorbs these; but as these are absorbed, remember the poisons - as they are absorbed - must be eliminated from the system. We find that occasionally a little Milk of Bismuth with a few drops of Elixir of Lactated pepsin will be helpful for the digestive system. Whether taken once a day or once a week (do not take too much, but whenever there is a feeling of gas movements this would be well), the dose would be a teaspoonful of the Bismuth and two, three, four to six drops of the Pepsin stirred in half a glass of water. This gives better tone for the stomach, helps to absorb poisons, keeps down the gas and aids the abdominal disturbances. Thus, naturally, with the poisons being absorbed, the irrigations or colonics (that is, enemas - using the colon tube) become necessary, as indicated. Unless there is the overabundance of activity through such eliminations, the poisons must accumulate and the disturbance be more severe.

17. We are through with this reading.

Reports

Reports & Follow-up

R1. 3/25/37 EC’s letter: “Do hope the suggestions in the last rdg. will make a lot of difference. Do not let the suggestion that you have enemas all upset you, because your father [1057] had such a time about them. You can take them yourself if you will use a Fountain Syringe and get you a colon tube, and take it easily, and you won’t have any trouble. Evidently the poisons are what are causing you a little fever. Clear that up and you will find you will feel a lot better. Take it easy with your getting out, but soon you should be able to have some nice long drives, and that will help a lot. Don’t tire yourself too much with these, but keep up all the suggestions, and you will whip that old trouble yet, despite what anyone says. For, after all, [528], “Ye are gods,” [Ps. 82:6] and He has a work for you to do here, now. If you will give Him a chance He will show you what is best. You are His. Just be willing to be used as He sees fit. Isn’t that all in keeping with the Good Book, and what everyone has been saying all these years? There are so few of us who don’t tell Him how and what we want to do, rather than being just what He would have us be. The motivative force in whatever may be used to help must be divine, or there can’t possibly be any help, and we only use it aright.

“Oh, no, I am not a preacher, but I know you have experienced enough to know all these things [GD’s note: Miss [528] is a church organist] and I would only call them to your remembrance. You can use the facts for God’s purposes, not for your own, make your ways His ways, and all is, and will be, fine and lovely.”

R2. 3/31/37 Mother [865]‘s letter: “In the last rdg. it was suggested that the keg be refilled. Shall we empty the keg of the solution or put the half gallon in with old brandy?

“[528] appreciated your kind letter to her so very much. She is feeling fairly well, still aches badly and her skin is very sore. The stomach condition is some better. She is up for a few minutes each day now, as you suggested, but is very weak.”

R3. 4/5/37 EC’s letter: “Do not think it necessary to pour out the brandy in keg, but just add more to that already there. Keep it where it will evaporate; that is, where it keeps warm, not hot, but tightly corked, and when loosened to use, to be sure the first few inhales are the best.”

R4. 4/16/37 Mother submitted questions for a Ck. Physical, saying they had referred a Mr. [1365] for a rdg.

R5. 4/26/37 See 528-8.

Background

Background

B1. See 528-6 on 3/5/37 for scleroderma, with subsequent Reports.

B2. 3/20/37 Mother [865]‘s letter: “[528] would like to have a ck. rdg., as the aching over her entire body is so bad. For the last few days, especially, it has been very severe across shoulders and in neck, and all of the skin is very sore. She has also run a slight temperature yesterday and today. She had been free of fever for 3 wks. She continues to have quite a lot of trouble in stomach and bowels. Shall we continue the oil packs and other treatments? Is the battery given correctly, and is her diet correct? Is it best to stay in bed, or how long each day should she be up?”

B3. 3/21/37 Reply to Questionnaire, signed by Miss [528] herself:

“Yes, the analysis of the rdg. covered the condition as far as we understand, except for the aching of entire body. Symptoms described correctly were the aching across shoulders and neck for several years, then the aching became worse effecting entire body, temperature, night sweats, sweating of hands and feet, burning along spine, thickening and hardening of skin, increased weight of 20 lbs., soreness of skin, soreness of stomach, gastrointestinal tract disorder, accumulation of gas in abdomen and rigors.

“I went through a clinic and they said a nervous condition and a suspicious looking place on apex of one lung. I had 5 other doctors, one a specialist who finally said I had scleroderma and no lung trouble.

“Since 1/14/37 we have followed the rdgs. the very best we knew how.

“Improvements have resulted. Aching continued, temperature at intervals, night sweats stopped, sweating of hands and feet improved, burning along spine in spots but not full length of spine. Thickening and hardening of skin is 25% improved, increased weight reduced 5 lbs., soreness of skin slightly improved. Stomach shows improvement at times but still a lot of gas and sourness. No more rigors.

“Aching has improved little if any, but other conditions are better.”
