TEXT

1. EC: We have the body here, [288], this we have had before. In the general physical forces of the body, these - we find - are very good in many respects. There are those tendencies as has been indicated from time to time existent in the body, and especially under certain astrological conditions become, as it were, accentuated towards those tendencies, and produce those of torpidity in the liver.
2. Exercise, or the use of properties as would combine well WITH making for impulses (not over-activity - IMPULSES) at such times is well for the body to take. The specific exercises should be those of the turning or twisting of the body, as affect that from the diaphragm up - see? during such periods. It's needed very well now, to make for a better activity of the liver, or combined with same take those of the Castoria - in very small quantities - that would AROUSE the liver, see? About a half a bottle should be sufficient, taken properly. Ready for questions.
3. (Q) Is the blood being built up properly?
   (A) When torpidity of the liver exists, blood is very rarely built up properly. When this is KEPT normal, the blood supply is near normal.
4. (Q) What periods astrologically affect the liver?
   (A) Look at that as has been given, as to what the astrological conditions are of the body! Get when they are in conjunction with the earth, and those activities, and you'll find that those periods come through that portion of same when the Aquarius sign passes through those of the certain periods in the year with that of the astrological aspects from the planetary influences in the physical forces of the body! Read your almanac! Study your reading you had! [288-1 & 288-10]
5. (Q) Give some specific lower limb exercises for the evening.
   (A) Those of the stooping with the feet together, and those of the stooping with the feet - as the body raises, jumps up - and spread the feet apart. These are the best. Be well to pull down the window shades, though!
6. (Q) Any further advice for this body?
   (A) Keep the mental and the physical forces in accord with that as is known by the body as respecting the astrological, the psychological, philosophical, and theological forces of the mental and spiritual forces of the body. These are well. We are through with this reading.
7. That is all.
8. We have plenty more that want it! [GD's note: Two ck. rdgs. had preceded 288-28.]
9. We are through for the present.
