This psychic reading given by Edgar Cayce at his office, 105th St. & Ocean, Va. Beach, Va., this 22nd day of February, 1932, in accordance with request made by self - Mr. [949], Associate Member of the Ass”n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc., recommended by his father, Mr. [437].

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

Time of Reading 4:00 P. M. Eastern Standard Time. New York, N.Y. (Physical Suggestion)

1. EC: We have the body here, [949] - this we have had before. As we find, there are some improvements in the physical forces of the body. There is sufficient change in the vibrations to alter or change somewhat the applications as would be made for further corrective measures.

2. In those vibrations from the Radio-Active Appliance, use them in the same manner as HAS been - save there would be the attachment passing through the Chloride Gold solution. The proportions, one grain to one ounce of distilled water. Attach that one to the ankle that carries the Gold, FIRST; then the one to the wrist on the opposite side of the body.

3. At least twice each week we would massage the lower portion of the spine, across the sacral, coccyx region, and to the ends of the nerves - especially that make for the LOCOMOTARY actions in the lower limbs, with this solution: Take one gallon of PLAIN or ordinary gasoline; to this add one and a half ounces Oil of Cedar; then one ounce Oil of Mustard; and cut up one and one-half drams of Gum Camphor. Shake the solution together. Use in the massage for the sacrum, or sacral region, and upper portion of the hips, about one ounce; and about half an ounce in the massage along the limbs, ESPECIALLY along those of the sciatic nerve root and about the knees.

4. The rest we would keep for the next sixty days, in an order or manner as has been outlined. This we would give (the massage) Tuesdays and Fridays.

5. Keep the battery appliance as given, save with the addition of the Gold solution.

6. Once each week take INTERNALLY as this: Prepare Chloride of Gold solution one grain, to one ounce of distilled water, and CARBONATE of Soda three grains to each once of water. When the dose is taken, to half a glass of plain water add the Gold solution two minims, the Soda solution four minims. This taken during the next sixty days, not oftener than once each week.

7. Ready for questions.

8. (Q) What is cause of pain in right ankle in changeable weather, and can anything be done to relieve same? (A) We have set about that which WILL, if applied, relieve same. In the reactions in the physical being, we find that the change in pressure is a change in the vibrations of a physical being. ESPECIALLY is this so, or true, where there is an extra amount of cartilaginous forces, either from injuries or from scar tissue in portions of the system. Hence one that has had nerve injuries, or retardment in developments (as in this), or that suffers from rheumatics or any of the kindred nerve pressure conditions, suffers under pressure of changed atmosphere.

9. (Q) What is cause of nose bleeds I have experienced lately? (A) The blood supply attempting to adjust itself, and causing an overflow. Nature, as it were, taking care of itself. With these rubs and these changes as are made, these conditions will not occur so much - until the latter portion of the next sixty day treatment, when this may or may not reoccur; not so often, or profuse, but a change will have taken place - are these applied. Do that.

10. (Q) Should my physical condition prevent me from driving an automobile during the summer? (A) By the latter portion the body should be able to drive, especially if there are those precautions and the preparations made for the taking care of the emergencies in such conditions.

11. (Q) Following suggestion in life reading [See 949-2 on 1/28/32], what type of music composition, classical or modern, should be studied? (A) Classical.

12. (Q) Where and under whom should same be studied? (A) There are very good associations and connections in the present. Later these may be done abroad.

13. (Q) Should I begin at once or complete a regular college course first? (A) Better, as we find, that it be rather combined - or during the completion of the college course, make the proper connections and associations for the leading up to these.

14. (Q) Have I any talents in the field of writing prose or poetry? (A) Some of the prose are very good; much of the poetry is VERY, VERY good! These deserve recognition, and - as we would find - would receive same, in the manner, were these presented through those channels for aiding those that are beginners in such.

15. We are through.

Reports & Follow-up

R1. 3/15/32 (Tuesday) [949]‘s letter to EC:

Dear Mr. Cayce,

I am now taking the second set of treatments, that containing the gold. But we would like to know how long the battery will last. We have used it for 36 days and would like to know if this same battery will last the remaining 60 days for the gold treatments.

We are sure there has been some improvement since the applications started. Not only has my leg developed a bit, but I have gained ten pounds in the last month.

Today I had the first massage with the oil of mustard, gasoline, etc. I can’t say as I enjoyed the experience, (which is, of course secondary) for the mustard made it unpleasant for he who massaged and he who was massaged. I feel sure that it was effective because I still feel a slight tingling in these portions.

When I last spoke to Mr. Kahn, he remarked that you would soon be in new York. I am looking forward to meeting you sometime in the near future.

Sincerely, [949]

R2. 3/23/32 EC’s letter to [949]:

I was more then glad to have yours of the 15th, and to know that you feel there is some improvement since you started the applications. We realize this has to be a consistent and persistent thing on your part, in order to get back to a normal condition; and you no doubt realize that it will be a long, hard pull - but it will be such a wonderful thing for you, I am sure, to know that you are a normal, healthy man - and this I feel will come about. Through the years we have had some very serious conditions of this nature, and now in a great number of those you could scarcely tell it - and in some instances not at all. One young lady I remember very well, whose limb dragged very badly, and only with a crutch did she get along at all. It is true she had some two and a half years, but now she is a teacher, and enjoys all outdoor sports, is a wonderful dancer, and you could not tell she had ever been lame in her life. It was some little time before the limb filled out, yet once it started why it went right along.

Yes, the battery will be good for the remaining sixty days. You only have to keep the little plates clean, polished off each day, also the wire that goes into the Gold solution. To be sure, if one of these was to break, you would want it replaced immediately. You will have to change the Gold solution, to be sure. That should be changed about every fourteen or fifteen days, unless it is used up sooner.

I am sure the massage with the compound of mustard oil and gasoline is somewhat severe, both on the one applying it and on yourself, but such - if it is effective - of course means very little. It should not be so severe, however, as to produce irritation outwardly, but this can be judged best after you have used it for some little time.

I certainly appreciate your letter, [949], and I hope that you will let us hear from you from time to time. I am looking forward to meeting you in person. Just now I do not know when it will be possible for me to be in New York, but I hope to see you then - if you do not come to the Beach before that time.

We have had some wonderful letters from several of the people whom your father has interested in obtaining readings. I appreciate his interest on the behalf of others, as well as ourselves.

Again thanking you for your letter, and with kindest personal regards and best wishes to you and yours, I am

Sincerely, EC:GD

R3. 3/27/32 Mr. [257]‘s letter: “[437] said write him and don’t be bashful (asking for help) as he is tickled with [949]‘s improvement. The boy walked for the first time in ten years a distance of five blocks - from 81st to 86th Street - with- out stopping. He has hobbled along before. He feels life in his leg and it is one-half inch larger around - so, Judge, you are doing for humanity, and God will help you I’m sure.”

R4. 5/9/32 (Monday) [949]‘s letter:

Dear Mr. Cayce:

On Tuesday, May 10, my last period of applications ends. I would like a check reading as to further instructions, and would like to ask the following questions.

1. Was the treatment suggested properly applied and has it had a satisfactory result?
2. What further treatment, if any, is suggested?
3. I feel that my sensory system, particularly in respect to my eyesight, needs some adjustments. Is this so.

Please let me know as to the time of my appointment. See last paragraph under 949-2, Life Reading Reports.

R5. 5/19/32 See 949-4.
