TEXT

1. GC: You will have before you the entity [303], born September 28, 1886, in Union, Hertford Co., N. C. You will give an aura chart of the entity, indicating the symbols, colors, and the meaning of each, that they may be made into a drawing that would be of help to the entity.
2. EC: Yes, we have the records here of that entity now known as or called [303].
3. In interpreting the experiences of an entity, and this entity particularly, the signs, symbols, pictorial indications of place, - much of the beauty of such a chart depends upon the concept of the artist. Yet these are given in the attempt to interpret the activities of an entity through the appearances in materiality, in such a way as not to minimize altogether the faults but to attempt to glorify the endeavors in such a way that this chart may aid, may be a stimuli to the entity to hold ever to that which is good, and to magnify the virtues in truth to the glory of the Creative Forces, the Maker, the Creator of all.
4. For this entity we would begin, in the center at bottom, for an outline, at the base, with five silver stars. Above this, not too far, put five golden stars. Just above this, not in too large a figure, put the sign of Infinity; this, to be sure, in gold.
5. Upon the left side put the outline, in a circle, of Atlantis. This would be near an outline of the continent now of Australia. In the center at the top of the outline of land put a red circle. About the circle, enclosing the map or outline of Atlantis, put four symbols of Leo. These would be in black, quite small. The color of the land, or Atlantis, would be gray-green.
6. Upon the right put the sign of the earth; this in blue-gray - this, to be sure, a circle also. About same would be the symbol of Libra.
7. The interpretation would be the desire of the soul-entity from Infinity into first activity in Atlantis, indicating in red the turmoil, indicating in the light of the earth journey. The symbols about same - Leo, Libra - represent the mental expansion in Leo, - in Libra, the being too liberal, as would be literally expressed, with self.
8. The second figure, above this central figure, would be the sphinx in the distance; with the paw scarcely showing in the foreground. This would be in sand shade, with the dawn to the right - and scattering or fleecy clouds as of the light arising; though no portion of the sun itself would be seen in this figure or drawing, this, to be sure, would be shading or giving color to the scene. No figure would appear in this scene save the light AND the sphinx.
9. To the left put the sign of Mercury; this in white and blue, rather deep blue.
10. To the right put the sign of Venus, with the colorings here in lavender AND pink - not too much pink.
11. This would indicate the place, the mystery, the mind and the love expressed in the entity's Egyptian activity or experience.
12. Above this put a sand dune in sand color, though this figure would be to the right side rather than the left - as the sphinx in the scene below, to keep the better balance. And the light that is shaded in the picture or scene would be coming from the moon, though THIS as a light and not seen in the sign at all, yet the sand shade. A camel would be shown being led by a figure in the robes of the nomads, and upon the back would be the cover - or basket covering, with the figure very beautiful, with a following camel loaded, or carrying the fruits of a land. The figure on the first camel (and make both these camels, NOT dromedaries!) would be in the color and beauty in the various shades of oriental colors, while the figure leading the camel would be drab in color - but the face lighted as of expectancy; for a light, as a light and not a star, not a sun, would be indicated in the horizon toward which the figure would be journeying. The extent of this would be such as to light the face of the rider. All of these figures would be as vignettes, not as encasements or as put on.
13. Upon the left put the sign of Jupiter, in light green.
14. Upon the right put the sign of Neptune, in gray-green, - this much lighter, though, than the figure below same.
15. The interpretation, - the seeking, the giving, the light. The distribution as in Jupiter of the universal, and in Neptune the vast expansion into that activity innate and manifest throughout the entity's experience in materiality.
16. In the center above this put the three figures, all women, kneeling as before the Cross; one bowed with face to the earth, one upon one knee with the face lifted, one standing bowed with the face still indicated in same. About their heads would be shown the sign of the Presence, - or, as indicated in their sincerity. The Cross, the three crosses with the figures upon same, would be in the background, but to the center of the right side. The inscription would be shown above the central figure, as well as that indicating the thorns, as well as the light breaking above same of infinity. This, however, as it breaks through the Cross, would be all white, with little gold save in the central portion of the signs of infinity. Upon the faces as seen would be depicted hope, love, faith, - as may be expressed in the countenance indeed of the seeker. Upon the grounds about same would be the grasses as of tiny flowers, these all white; not closed, not wholly dropping, but as being drawn toward the central figure.
17. Upon the left put the sign of Mercury in white and gold.
18. Upon the right put the sign of Uranus, in green AND white.
19. This would indicate the central experience of this entity.
20. Above this would be depicted the humble home, only that as might be called the portion of a side wall, a little porch, with fowl - chickens, ducks and geese - all white - indicated in the yard about same. The picket fence would be shown, but not complete; not dilapidated, but as begun and not quite finished, though the posts for the runners of same would be all the way in the foreground. Not all the runners on the posts up, not all the pickets on the fence indicated. A child would be upon the step, as a girl, with a doll at the feet - but looking into the distance, where a single star would be shining - brightly. This, then, would indicate the atmosphere and a great deal of sod or green; not many trees or bushes, however.
21. Upon the left side of this put the sign of the new moon, upon the first quarter.
22. Upon the right put the sign of the moon on the last quarter, - the face indicating same; bright or golden, not gold but golden in its color, with expression - not expressionless.
23. Then, that to which the entity may attain:
24. At the top put the cornucopia, - this in bright colors, with the fruit of the spirit poured from same. Here these figures would be TWELVE in number. These take different shapes, mostly as of triangles, however, or not fully round as rolled from same. These would be indicated as brilliants, or as diamonds, or as precious stones. Thus they may be depicted as the white, the gold, the blue-white, the red ruby, the robin-egg blue, all the varied colors as would be in same.
25. Upon the left put an arch, this not too long, though extend a hair line in blue to that opposite the figure in the Palestine experience. This begin with small stars, white and gold alternated, and fifteen of these, increasing in their size until they come to the arch at the top and center, close to the plenty - or the cornucopia.
26. Upon the right this again would be repeated, this extending in the hair line and shaded toward the top - that opposite the one on the left. In this would be the same number of stars.
27. These would indicate that attainment which has been this entity's experience in the earth. Hold fast to the faith as expressed in the face in the scene before the Cross.
28. We are through for the present.
