This Psychic Reading given by Edgar Cayce at his home on Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 7th day of July, 1938, in accordance with request made by the self - Mr. [849], Active Member of the Ass”n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc.

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

Time of Reading 4:50 to 5:00 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. …, N.Y. (Physical Suggestion)

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here.

2. As we find, there are some improvements since last we had same here. While there is a great deal to be warned of as to conditions and things that may arise, we find there are indications that the body is responding to the applications and the vibratory forces being set up.

3. We would continue with those things that have been indicated, and in the manner as they have been given.

4. About five days before the next period of the Epsom Salts Bath, we would take Atomidine AND Chloride of Gold with Soda internally, alternately; that is, one day the Atomidine, the next day the Gold and Soda - for five days before the Epsom Salts Bath is to be taken, so that there may be a reaction of these properties through the system.

5. The Gold and Soda would be prepared in separate Solutions, and then combined when the dose is taken; that is:

6. Add one grain of the Chloride of Gold to one ounce of Distilled Water. This would be one Solution.

7. Five grains of Bicarbonate of Soda would be put to one ounce of Distilled Water, and this would be another Solution.

8. Then alternate the doses. The Atomidine would be taken every other day, you see, as has been indicated - for the five days BEFORE the Epsom Salts Bath is to be taken; while the Gold and the Soda would be combined and taken in between. That is, there would be three doses of the Atomidine and two of the Gold and Soda, you see; before the Epsom Salts Bath would be taken.

9. The dosage of the Gold and Soda would be two minims of the Gold Solution and four minims of the Soda Solution put together in about half a glass of water.

10. In preparing the Soda Solution, use Bicarbonate of Soda; or baking soda, if the Cow Brand or the Arm & Hammer is used.

11. This has nothing to do with the Gold Solution being taken in the regular order through the Appliance, you see; but would be taken internally with the Soda Solution, the Atomidine one day and this combination the next, for five days.

12. Then when the Epsom Salts Bath is taken, this should indicate a reaction that would be most beneficial through those areas especially in the hip, and then where there is the indication of static conditions in the muscular forces; provided the other vibratory forces of the Gold and Silver have been kept up.

13. Keep the anodes polished, in the use of the Appliance; keep them very clean. Take them OUT of the Solutions - the lead anodes - when not in use; but keep the Solutions closed, you see; that is, not open to the air. And recharge the Solutions regularly.

14. Also when the massages are given, we would use Cocoa Butter as combined with Olive Oil to massage INTO the hip, the limb, the knee, the WHOLE of the limbs. These will, through the absorption and through the very activity of same, with the electrical forces, prevent the portions becoming atrophied, or keep the nerves from becoming deadened.

15. Keep the diet. Keep more activities as the body is able to move about.

16. Ready for questions.

17. (Q) Are all of the treatments being correctly followed? (A) As indicated, we would be mindful of these conditions as have been warned of here.

18. (Q) Any other advice for the body? (A) Be patient, but be persistent; and we will find it worth while.

19. We are through with this Reading.

Reports & Follow-up

R1. 7/12/38 HLC’s letter:

We are all hoping that the second round of your treatment will get you on your feet. Keep us advised so that we can check up from time to time. Whenever you feel able to make the trip down this way let me know and I’ll come up and get you. I do not see now how I can get away until around the first for a trip up there unless you are able to come down, then I’ll stretch a point. I have an offer for camp again from Aug. 7 to 21, but will gladly let this slide if you can be down here for part or all of that month.

R2. 8/2/38 [849]‘s letter to EC:

Dear Eddie,

We have a little better report for you this time following the bath and the five days we waited for a reaction. Two things were very noticeable. First the condition in my right hip improved, and second I gained a lot of strength generally. The boy who came to give me the bath and massage said he felt more tone in the muscles and the lady who comes to give me massages in the interim finds the general tone of the body to be much better. She said to me this afternoon while she was working on my back, “there has been a change in your whole system for the better.”

So far as the hip is concerned it still keeps me in bed because it causes the leg to shake when it is moved sideways and I have to keep the right knee in contact with the left leg unless there is support for the right thigh. However, the improvement is in the fact that the soreness has gone out of almost all of the hip and leg, and even when it shakes, although this is distressing, it is no longer very painful.

We are now trying to inaugurate a set of exercises which will strengthen the leg muscles and get rid of the shaking, which is largely due to atrophy. This requires something of an effort but the time has come to get on the move. If there is a chance for a check reading before the next bath I would like to ask about any specific exercises that the reading might suggest, and I would like to ask about my left elbow. This has been affected slightly all along, but lately it has become worse and the muscles in the upper part of that arm are atrophying. The joint itself is swollen and its movement is very limited.

Otherwise we are just plugging along, hoping and praying that the improvement will continue. I wish I could advance as rapidly as my daughter, who will be walking before I am if I do not hurry up.

In another six days, on the tenth of August, we will have to change our battery again. We have not missed a single day with it so far, so if Hugh Lynn can send up the ingredients for us we will be very grateful. [1102] is getting a fresh solution of silver nitrate today, and is raising it from three to four percent. If this is not enough let us know.

We hope you are all well and enjoying your summer at the beach. There is no place else we would rather be than with you right now.

Love, [849]
