This Psychic Reading given by Edgar Cayce at his home on Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 16th day of November, 1938, in accordance with request made by the self - Mrs. [623], Associate Member of the Ass”n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc.

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

Time of Reading 4:15 to 4:25 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. …, Ohio.

1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for further corrective measures; answering the questions she has submitted, as I ask them:

2. EC: Yes.

3. Here we find there has never been the full application of all those suggestions which were made some time back, in ELIMINATING the sources. And NOW the effect of the toxic forces through the system is upon the extremities and especially in the joints and tendons.

4. As we find in the present:

5. We would take, periodically, the Eno Salt, - to act as an eliminant and as a purifier for the system. This would not be such a drain upon the blood supply and the lymph system as to cause the body to lose TOO much weight, or as to be a great strain upon the body. Take a heaping teaspoonful in a glass of water morning and evening for five days. Leave off for three days. Then repeat. Leave off then for five days. Then repeat again. Leave off again for three days. Then repeat again, - and so on.

6. And be mindful especially of the diet, that fats or fried foods are not a part of the diet.

7. For as we find, if the body is consistent and persistent, we will eliminate the conditions.

8. Until these general conditions are set up to correct the effects, by the continued or consistent use of these properties as indicated for eliminants, we would apply the Epsom Salts Packs when there is pain in the joints, as the knees or the hips or the feet or the hands or the arms. These will eliminate the disturbance, and aid in setting up better lymph circulation.

9. But the needs are for the flow of the general eliminations and a purifying of the bodily force and functionings through the manners indicated.

10. Ready for questions.

11. (Q) What causes soreness and fullness in abdomen or colon? (A) As indicated, there is a dilation of the colon through the lack of the proper eliminations.

Even with the taking of the Eno Salt regularly, we find that the use of colonic irrigations would be MOST helpful for the body. But use a saline and soda solution for such. Have the water body-temperature; not hotter, not colder, and it will thus not become a strain upon the system. The proportions would be a level teaspoonful of soda and a heaping teaspoonful of salt to each quart of water used; thoroughly dissolved in the container of water used.

12. (Q) I should lose weight. (A) Then, as indicated, do these, - and it will not overdo this, see?

Do these for this body, and we will bring better conditions in every way.

13. We are through for the present.

[During above rdg. EC dreamed of HLC getting fan letters on his “Mysteries of the Mind” broadcast. See detailed dream under 294-189 Reports.]

Reports

Reports & Follow-up

R1. 12/1/38 Letter: “We received our readings ([951] and I) and are well pleased with them. We are getting along nicely with all treatment…”

R2. 6/24/39 Letter in which she wrote about how much she and her daughter [951] enjoyed the Congress: “I am trying to heal my eyes and keep away from glasses. Will you send me some healing thoughts? I went to a doctor here who teaches you eye exercise, sun ray and relaxation treatments. The vision is changing. I have run down, I do believe [referring to her long letter].”

R3. GD’s note: Mrs. [623] wrote long letters re her studies of spiritualism, New Thought, etc., with her daughter [951]. These letters may be found in date sequence in the file of her daughter [951], since her daughter obtained a Life Reading and her psychic development mentioned in Mrs. [623]‘s letters is more pertinent as a reference in [951]‘s file.

R4. 3/41 Mrs. [623] obtained a physical for her husband [2461].

R5. 8/23/41 She had her next physical, re rheumatism, 623-5.

R6. 8/16/41 Letter: “I guess I will have to have a check reading. The rheumatism has gone to my hips - especially the right one and down the sciatic nerve (or something). Every step is painful. Thought I could clear it up with diet and Eno and Baths, but seems I can’t stick tight enough to the diet, and just a bit of meat or sugar and it is worse. A toe on the left foot hurts like a cord that is too short; move it a certain way and it’s like tearing it out by the roots.

“Would like the reading to check a spot (I suppose it the bowel) just below the waistline and an inch or so to the right of the navel - it feels sensitive - hurt me first about a year or more ago.

“Would like to know if the kidneys or liver or bowels or what causes this rheumatism. Do I think wrong? and in what way, so I can try to do better.”

R7. 8/21/41 Letter: “Cannot think of any questions at present. It is easier to go up town for a mineral bath or sulphur than to do it by myself at home. However, I can use Epsom Salts water in the tub and cover it with an oilcloth or rubber sheet, but I do not get nearly as warm as I do up town at a bath house.

Have neglected making up the herb, liver stimulant, given in my first reading [623-1]. If I should, of course the reading [next] will say so.”

R8. 8/23/41 See 623-5, her next physical.
