This Psychic Reading given by Edgar Cayce at the David E. Kahn home, 20 Woods Lane, Scarsdale, N.Y., this 18th day of November, 1937, in accordance with request made by the self - Mrs. [618], Member of the Ass”n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc.

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

Time of Reading 11:40 to 11:45 A. M. Eastern Standard Time. …, Va. (Physical Suggestion)

  1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [618]; this we have had before.

  2. As we find, in the present, there are still the acute conditions existing in the muscular forces along the cerebrospinal system over the back portion of the left lung.

  3. To begin in the PRESENT condition:

  4. We would first have again a high enema to remove the tension in the colon area, as has been indicated. This will allow for a better circulation throughout the system, alleviating the nerve forces by the pressure produced from poisons or accumulations in the colon.

  5. Then have the deeper manipulations osteopathically along the cerebrospinal system.

  6. Then apply an analgesia; equal combination of Mutton Suet, Turpentine and Spirits of Camphor, over the lung area; to the back and to the front. The front would be in the lower portion along the sternum, of course, extending up to the collar bone or between the breasts; but more in the back. Massage these properties in very heavily, and then apply Salt Heat - heavy salt heated and put in bags or packs over the area.

  7. These will reduce the inclination for accumulations in the pleura, in the area that is indicated.

  8. Unless the pain is relieved after an hour and a half to two hours, repeat - re-heating the salt.

  9. Do that.

  10. In the diet, still keep to the beef juices, the broths, the fruits and the fruit juices and vegetable juices; or more a liquid than a heavy diet - until the congestion is removed, or until there is not the inclination for the blood streams to leak through the high pressure of the blood in the veins AND arteries.

  11. Do these, and we will find the better conditions for the body.

  12. Ready for questions.

  13. We are through with this Reading.
