This psychic reading given by Edgar Cayce at his office, 115 West 35th Street, Virginia Beach, Va., this 24th day of January, 1928, in accordance with request made by self - Mrs. [538].

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

Time of Reading 3:50 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. …, Va. (Dream Suggestion)

1. EC: Yes, we have the body, the enquiring mind, [538], present in this room. This body, this mind, we have had before. The dreams of this body are for the body to use and apply in the life even as has been given to the body, for the understanding of conditions, associations and relations. Ready for dream.

2. (Q) January 15th or 16th, 1928. Dreamed [294] and I started somewhere. Had to cross a river. When got there was dry. Walked across the rough river bed without any trouble but bank on other side was very high, steep, and hard to get up - but we got to the last ledge from the top. [294] with difficulty got up, as he was taller than I, but I realized when he tried to pull me up, as he started to, that we would both fall to the bottom - so both went back down across the river bed to a house, it seemed - but the rest I don’t remember. (A) In this we find there are emblematical conditions in the mind of the entity that often worry and trouble the body - that of the attempt of the bodies seen to move over life’s way in the rough conditions that seem to appear in the form of the banks and conditions that were presented in the vision seen - each attempt to help the other over the various conditions or obstacles that present themselves; yet often that in which one assists the other seems to appear to be that over which BOTH would be dashed to pieces. In the return to the home of those that would give better direction, or to return to former state, there is then seen others who had succeeded in crossing over this journey; yet in the life of ones seen is illustrated that manner and way in which each may assist the other in the better way to journey over life’s road. Then, applying this is that each should return to that former estate in which the establishing of the home began, and from there view that as has been rough and in the way seeming unapproachable, and gain through that little force as seen in the one visioned the manner of approach.

3. We are through.

R1. See subsequent readings.

R2. Dream of [538] on night of 2/17/42: I went to a hydrotherapy place for a massage. The lady said I needn’t undress completely, but just so that she could massage my legs. I asked her if there was a bathroom, that first I’d like to go to the bathroom. She said yes but she’d have to go with me and show me, else I’d never find it. So she took me through a winding hall that passed room after room. She turned on the light in the bathroom, closed the door and left me. I thought immediately that I shouldn’t have let her leave me, for I’d have a time finding my way back. I finished in the bathroom and wandered through room after room, trying to get back to the place where I was to have my treatment. Finally I found it. [See husband [294]‘s dream on same night, 2/17/42, under 294-196, in re going to heaven, building a large house to help people but discovered they had forgotten to put in a bathroom.]

R3. GD’s note: Mrs. [538] died 4/1/45, 3 mos. after her husband died.
