This psychic reading given by Edgar Cayce at his office in Pinewood on Lake Drive, Va. Beach, Va., this 30th day of March, 1932, in accordance with request made by self, Mrs. [5592], new Associate Member of the Ass”n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc., recommended by Miss [1377].

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

Time of Reading 3:15 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. …, N.J. (Physical Suggestion)

1. EC: Yes, we have the body and those conditions as affect the physical forces of same, Mrs. [5592].

2. Now, as we find, some of the causes have been of long standing, and there has gradually been builded - by the lack of proper circulation in the system - those things that now become hard to keep separated in the system, and cause those conditions that are distressing at times to the body. These, as we find, are not of the nature that has taken on the proportions where they become active within themselves, consisting on the living organism of the body, yet tendencies in those directions bring those burning pains as are experienced in some of the glands, and intercostal pains as are drawing from the system, and the attempt of the supplying of nutriment to the system, or body, that as would be combative to same.

3. These, then, are the conditions as we find them with this body, Mrs. [5592], we are speaking of:

4. In the BLOOD SUPPLY we find those indications of a long standing condition; not only of catarrh, that has produced in the muco-membranes of the system those strangulations in some portions, hardened tissue in others, but the strains of same are seen in the active forces of the ascending colon, and the upper end of the transverse colon, as near that where the descending begins. Hence we have had various disorders at various stages of these disturbed circulations, and some of the applications that have been made to produce better eliminations and better activity of the liver and the alimentary canal, and for the indigestion and heartburn, and such as has been experienced, have been detrimental. While they relieved sometimes temporarily those conditions, these have not always acted properly with the muco-membranes of the system, especially with a catarrhal condition existent in the digestive organs of the body, especially in the stomach, duodenum and intestinal tract. These, to be sure - or variations, have covered a period of several years, as time would be counted.

5. In the existent conditions then, in the present, as we find them in the present, these - as may be seen - as has just been given - are causes, or contributory causes, and is the real condition to be met; though the effects as are produced in the present have many of the appearances of quite a different condition in the system.

6. In the blood stream in the present we find an intermittent pressure, as well as pulsation. Not to such proportions, as yet, as to be alarming, but must be attended to; else, as is indicated, these conditions WOULD reach those proportions where they WOULD be alarming, especially when we realize the condition is of that nature where it MIGHT become of a malignant nature in the glands, as about the mammary glands in the left side, or in the cavity of the torso itself, especially in that end about the upper portion of the descending colon.

7. In the effect as is produced on the ORGANS of the body itself, as we find, these pressures in this area, sympathetically, from conditions in the cardiac area, has made for distortions with portions of the sensory organism. Hence GRADUALLY has the body experienced more and more trouble with the hearing, and more especially with the eyes - but in the auditory system it has been more the effect of periods of ringing, dizziness, and uneasiness; while with the vision more irritation in the glands, in the lids - or on the lids, and in the socket itself, with impaired vision - as that of blur, but clearing occasionally. These are effects, not causes. The cause, as indicated, is a pressure that is created in the intercostal area, that comes from the 2nd, 3rd and 4th dorsal, and reflexly to the 3rd and 4th cervical, through the secondary cardiac area, or plexus, there in these two areas, as make for activity through the sympathetic AND cerebro-spinal plexus.

8. In the activity as is produced in the digestive system, we find there are periods when there is quite a bit of dryness in the throat and in the salivary glands; at others there seems to be an over supply of same. These are only at periods, and a burning sensation at times in pit of stomach, as follows the lack of the salivary glands’ reaction, and in the left side in the mammary glands - or under the breast - we find those pains, which are of an intercostal nature, as come from reflexes from the disorder in the colon area.

9. As for the liver, we find this torpid in its activity; the spleen also engorged in the right end of same, though active as under strain or stress. Fullness, gas, and the effect of acidity affect the digestive system and the food valuations for the body.

10. Heaviness in the lower limbs, and pains at times - or heavy pains, not pains severe - but heaviness in the lumbar and the small of the back. This occurs most of morning or of nights, and USUALLY is seen to disappear when the body is able to become more active.

11. As we would find, in the meeting of the conditions, even in the present, there should not be the necessity - nor ANY reason, will there be added the proper precautions - of an operative case, or operative measures. We would add sufficient to the system as will allow the better clarification of the blood stream, better pulsation and activity of the heart, and - to be sure - the better eliminating through the alimentary canal; keeping down the acidity in the system in such a way and manner as to allow that that IS assimilated in the system to become more effective in creating in the plasm of the blood supply the sufficient leucocyte in the white corpuscle as will produce not only better coagulation, but as absorbing of, and destroying of, those tissue and muco-membranes that have become clogged in portions of the glands and in the torso or trunk portion of the body itself, as well as clarifying or clearing the alimentary canal.

12. In supplying these, we would take first the carbon or animated, or activated, ash - one-eighth grain taken twice each week, but taken thirty minutes before there is applied the ultra-violet ray, and apply same over the secondary cardiac and the lower cervical area, or about the brachial area - from the 3rd or 4th cervical to the 4th or 5th dorsal area. This would be applied to the cerebro-spinal system. Not over the area, under the present, or over the right or left side - but from the brachial centers from which those activities of the nerve impulse and blood supply receive their impulses in their activity through the system.

13. Take the ash loose, or EMPTY same from capsule on tongue and wash down with at least half a glass of water. See?

14. We would begin with small quantities of olive oil, taken three to four times each day - half a teaspoonful of the PURE olive oil.

15. We would of evenings take from three to ten drops of Glyco-Thymoline to cleanse the intestinal tract.

16. We would, at least for one month, have every week a high colonic irrigation.

17. Then we would begin, at the end of the month, with the manipulations as would be of a general massage - see?

18. Do that, and at the end of eight weeks we would give further instructions.

19. Ready for questions.

20. In the matter of the diet, we would find that those things that create less of acids for the system are the better.

21. When it is necessary to take any form of cathartic, that which is of the vegetable nature would be the better, but this will not be necessary if we will have at least one meal each day of wholly citrous fruit diet, or the pieplant - as is concentrated - or the fig, or the syrup of same, or those as carry properties that make for the activity of the muco-membranes from the salivary glands to the jejunum, or the activity of same begins, or to the action of the glands that make for separations in the system - or lacteals. We will find these should carry those sufficient, when the colonics have removed those pressures as produce those in the system of MUCOUS in intestinal tract.

22. Do this, and at the end of the eight weeks we would give further instructions.

23. We are through for the present.

R3. 4/15/32 GD’s note: Mr. Franklin Bradley wired for Mrs. [5592]‘s address, which accounts for the delay in her receiving from him the animated ash. [See Par. R4 below.]

R4. 5/27/32 Letter: ”…Enclosed my check for $10 for which I will thank you to read for me again. In some ways I am so much better - my nerve exhaustion has just about vanished and my eyes are a little stronger. The pain in the spleen (or under the heart) is more severe and I am still very much troubled with constipation, which is of long standing. I take the syrup of figs which sometimes acts and again only irritates. I was quite a long time getting the prescription (animated ash) from Chicago which has delayed the treatments. I will thank you to give me an early a reading as possible. Thanking you for your interest in my case, I am…”

R5. 6/3/32 EC wrote that he had been delayed in making her appointment due to his own illness and moving into his new residence on Arctic Crescent.

R6. 6/7/32 Letter: ”…I received yours of June 23 and very sorry indeed that you are not well, also of your upset condition due to moving. There is no hurry to my case as I don’t consider it critical, as I am very much better, but I still have very much pain under my heart or spleen, which ever it is, which worries me alot, fearing a growth. Do you think the violet rays I have been taking are helping this feature? The chronic constipation is only really relieved when I take California’s Syrup of Figs, etc. - although I eat much food as you suggested. My general condition is so much better and my eyes stronger…”
