TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the entity here, and those relations with the universe and universal forces, that are latent and manifested in the personalities of the present entity, known as - or called - [324].
2. In giving that which may be helpful in the experience of this entity in the present, these - as we find - are the latent factors in the experience through the astrological aspects of the entity; but, to be sure, will develop as the entity is developing in the material and mental plane in the present.
3. From Venus we find influences making one that will be rather exceptional in its likes and dislikes, making for friends here, there, in seemingly an undue activity of the body, when the environs or associations are considered; yet one that will have very decided likes or dislikes. Not in the respect that it may be called stubbornness, yet very positive in its activities.
4. One that will be rather exceptional in those things, from this same astrological urge, in mathematical precision, in mathematical activities; and will make for an early association in the marital relations if the developments are allowed to run as the indications or urges are with the body.
5. The influences in Mars and Saturn show for urges that will develop towards those things pertaining to music, unusual things, and will be continually starting this or that activity which has to do or deals with new associations, new relations, new activities in the experience of not only self but those about the entity.
6. These, to be sure, depend upon how strong or how active these are in the experience in the development of the mental forces and the associations and relations of the entity.
7. In musical relationships those things that are unusual, or not the ordinary instruments of music for one of this sex; yet if there will be given the opportunity in these directions it will make for an activity that will make for better associations, better relations in the experience of the entity in this sojourn; making a variation in the harmonious relationships with the mathematical precision in the activities of the body.
8. These, to be sure, are as urges from the sojourns of the entity in its developing, and its activities outside of those physical urges that arise from the sojourns or experiences in the earth.
9. In those things that pertain to the correlating of the spiritual or soul forces of the entity with its activities and colors, in harmonious relationships, the tonal numbers are in F and C, while the colors should be purple - that denotes the royalty of the associations, and that makes for an influence in the vibrations about the entity; and this with violet should be about the body when there is any disorder in the vibrations in the body, for the effect same has upon the relationships between the physical, the mental and the soul developing forces - for it would give strength to the activities in relationships with the body.
10. As to the signets, that should be rather the seal in relationships to the entity: The hieroglyphic figure of the Ibex with the circle that is about those of prestige, or activity that bespeaks of royalty or of higher spiritual developments. These should be those things in figures or forms about the entity.
11. As to the experiences of the entity in the earth:
12. Before this (that influences the entity in the early portion of the development in this particular experience or environ) we find the entity was in the present land of nativity, adjoining those influences in which the entity came into this present activity. For the entity then was among those people that inhabited the land when there were the settlings of the English in the land; being then a daughter of the Chief of those people that made peace with those in and about Williamsburg, Jamestown, and the adjoining lands; and was a Princess then, in the name Ptheula (if it were translated into English letters, or pronounced Patahala [?]). Its meaning was that it made for the closer relationships with those over whom and with whom the Chief ruled; or peace among the brethren. [Yr. 1600, etc.?] [See grandfather's rdg. 289-9, Par. 51-A, in re [324] being part white in Jamestown period.]
13. Hence the entity in its appearance in the present experience will be found to be in that position physically of often making harmony where, without the activities or the body-physical relationships would make for strain or unharmonious conditions; thus filling that to which it attained in that sojourn; being thrown much with those peoples with whom peace was made, brought then much of strength to her own peoples, as well as to those of the settlements. Hence we will find that trinkets, beads, corals, shells, and such things have a decided influence, and the selection and colorings of such things are in its developing years of particular interest to the entity.
14. In the present experience that association will influence the entity regarding its activities in what may be termed in its environ as one inclined towards those things of an athletic tendency, and out of door activities rather than those things that pertain to the house or home specific; yet from other influences we will find these have their own particular place in the experience of the entity.
15. Before that we find the entity was in the French land during the period when Charles was in exile there. [GD's note: Which Charles? Prior to Powhatan date? Or could it be Charles II of England, EC giving the Powhatan incarnation first because it was closer in influence on [324] as a child?]
16. The entity then was then among those people in the French city or capital who aided in making for the surroundings of that ruler, being close in the activities not only of the royalty in the French rule but as to the associations in connection with that ruler, making for many of the social activities that had to do with those periods of progress or evolution in the experience of those of that day.
17. From that relationship, as Aeldien, the entity gained much in the material relationships, but brought in the latter portions disappointments to self through the social activities; and it will be found in the present that the general trend as to the likes and dislikes will be in relationships with those things pertaining to individuals in positions that may aid the entity itself or may direct in some manner which will make for the advancement in the social activities of the entity. This guided aright may be made as a stepping-stone. Irrespective of those things that have for the associations in such directions from the spiritual angle, may make for the egotistical activities that will bring turmoils and strifes to the entity. Yet from that same physical experience, those things that deal with the out of doors or those activities that are in the main of the athletic associations will be those fields of activity in its earlier years or teens of the entity's developments.
18. Before that we find (the influences of which will be greater during the periods from seventeen to twenty-two or three) we find the entity was in that land now known as the Promised Land, or Palestine, during the periods when the Master walked in the earth, and when there were those relationships with the rulers and those that were in power of the JEWISH peoples - or the Herods.
19. The entity then was among those of the household of Herod Antipas that made for such destructive influences in the minds of many as respecting those relationships with the activities of the Master. Yet when there had been those activities in which Eloin (the entity's name then) saw in person the healing of Bartimaeus and then the healing of the son of the Roman governor, the entity joined rather (with those that were of the royalty) with those people that aided in the distribution of the activities and in helping those people that made for the activities in many directions. While these activities were what would be called "under cover" in the period, the heart, the soul, the desire of the entity made for a period of contentment and peace, yet without turmoils and strife.
20. So, in the periods of the entity's activities in the present, during those periods there will be brought indecisions; yet INNATE will be those desires in those directions that take hold on the truth, the light, the love, as expressed and manifested not only by self but those peoples during that experience. Hence the necessity of the directing the body-mind during its developing years in those things wherein not only the historical but rather the spiritual truths become a part or a portion of the experiences of the entity.
21. Then, as has been given, train the child in the way it should go; when it is old it will not depart from same.
22. Before that we find the entity was in that land now known as the Persian, during those experiences when there was the tented city in the hills and plains.
23. The entity was among those of the household of the leader in that experience, bringing through those relationships the closer relations with those from the varied activities of those that had joined themselves for the various purposes of understandings in that experience; in the name then Joyel.
24. The entity gained much, for the music that became a portion of the call that has come down to the Moslems, the East Indians, the call to worship, was begun by the entity in that experience; which has made for that in the hearts and minds of many as a means, a manner of giving expression materially to the promptings from within.
25. Then, tolling music and rather wierd sounds have their influence in the experience of the entity THROUGHOUT its development, in the young, in the middle years, in the portion of the life when the activities become those whereunto much may be gained in the home, and the associations and activities of the entity in whatever is chosen as the activities; yet, as we find, as given, from these very same experiences, in the early portion of the life will begin the home associations - but must be rather with those that have to do or deal with either entertainment or activities that have to do with the outdoor activity.
26. Before that we find the entity was in that land now known as the Egyptian, during those periods when there was the return of the priest from banishment. The entity then, Et-el-pthit, became better known in its activities; for it was of those peoples where the priest and those with him had been in banishment, and came with those that returned to the activities in the religious or temple services in the reestablishment or building up of the activities that were to proclaim the relationships of individuals with the Creative Forces and with their individual activities.
27. The entity then was among those in the temple service, the Temple Beautiful, in the dance, in the harp - as would be called today; rather then a yuyuar [?].
28. The entity gained much in the abilities, for though the entity was of those that were oft questioned by the Atlanteans and the natives for their activities in relationships, the entity brought much that made for peace and harmonious relationships of those of different sets, sects or classes, as begun to be drawn very marked during that period.
29. As to the abilities of the entity, then, in the present, and that to which it may attain, and how:
30. As indicated, we may find one whose destinies, whose activities; or those that govern, direct or sustain and maintain the activities of the entity during those periods of impression will find same set for them through those experiences in the mental and in the earth's urges, bringing much of help, much of harmony, much of those relationships in the lives of all whom the entity may contact, that will make the world, the place, the city, the home, the town, a better place for the entity having been in same.
31. Train, then, those activities in that direction that the spirit of truth may pervade, may direct, may be the choice of the entity in its dealings with its fellow man. For as the periods of development in the years of activity come in a material sense, greater will be the urges from the unseen forces in the experiences of the entity; not only in the imaginative and the impulses from the emotions, but visions and dreams will be the channels through which much may come to the entity's activities.
32. Ready for questions.
33. (Q) In which previous incarnations was she associated with those of her present household?
    (A) In the various activities that may be seen by the comparison of the associations in their activities.
34. (Q) To what tribe did she belong, or who was the Chief, in the one just before this?
    (A) Powhatan.
35. (Q) Please give the size, coloring and interpretation of the entity's seal.
    (A) This should be as a signet, as given; or rather as that which may be a seal or mark upon whatever things the entity has about same. As a ring, as a pin, as a mark upon the stationery, as a crest for the activities of the entity.
36. (Q) Was the entity in the past in possession of any information which if brought to her memory in the present would be of any special benefit?
    (A) As indicated, with the trainings in the activities of the entity in its developing years these will be a portion of the experiences in the middle or the early middle portion of the experience, as those things become necessary for the help, the aid, the entity may give to others.
37. (Q) What vocation should she follow in this experience?
    (A) The home, or those relationships that will deal with those things having to do with outdoor activities of those in home or groups or associations.
38. (Q) What training should she have as a child to lay a better foundation for her life work?
    (A) As given, let all be done in meekness, in sincerity and in truth. NEVER present that as an untruth to force an issue with the developing mind. Rather that in parable or in those things pertaining to the mysteries of the unseen forces, as tales to create for the entity the ability for vision and for magnifying of the inner urges for the unseen influence.
39. (Q) Did she for any specific reason choose to come into the earth's plane at this time?
    (A) As indicated in how the entity has brought, does bring, will make for, peace in the surroundings and in the home in which it came.
40. We are through for the present.

BACKGROUND

1. She previously obtained four health rdgs.
2. 9/05/34 Grandmother [413] was present, submitting questions for a Life Rdg.

REPORTS

1. 9/09/34 Grandmother [413], at a Group #1 meeting of A.R.E., was telling of experimenting with colors for the child, purple and violet for physical disorders as suggested in the life reading.
   The child had been fretful and cross and was displeased with her playmate and everything she did. The grandmother noticed this and thought of what the reading said. The only thing she could find in the house of purple was an old evening dress, with beads on it. This she brought out and hung it on the chandelier in the room in which the children played, with the excuse to let it hang there and air out.
   The playmate immediately stopped and exclaimed over it, how pretty it was, etc., reaching out and touching it. [324] objected at first but when the playmate admired it so, she stopped and reached out and touched it also, looking at it for a long time. Her crossness seemed to disappear and she [the grandmother] had no more trouble with [324] the rest of the day.
2. 6/07/35 Little [324] appeared in a rhythm and rhyme recital, as a little dancing "powder puff." Her teacher said she was gifted.
3. See subsequent health readings.
4. 12/13/38 A baby sister was born to [324]. See her Life Rdg., 1775-1 given on 12/31/38, showing several incarnations paralleling those of [324].
