This Psychic Reading given by Edgar Cayce at his home on Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 9th day of September, 1937, in accordance with request made by the self - Mrs. [326], Member of the Ass'n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc., through phone request early this morning by her daughter.

TEXT

1. EC: Yes, we have the body here, [326].
2. The resistances are low, and as we find the vitality is ebbing.
3. This causes then, under the distresses that have been experienced so long by the body, the acute condition arising in the present from the activities of the circulation between the heart, the lungs and the liver - and the acute pains.
4. If there is any temperature arising, or when this period comes about, have an attending physician for the ease as may be given in sedatives.
5. In the present, and immediately, we would use the Onion Poultice - this with the onions ground and sufficient meal (corn meal, preferably white) mixed with same to hold together; put on gauze and put over those areas - or the lobes of the lungs and the side where the pain is, front and back.
6. Then we would boil onions in Patapar Paper and give the syrup of same as an internal effect upon the digestive system. The large white onion for such usage, pressed to obtain the juice from same. The sips of the onion juice would be given about an hour and a half to two hours apart; about a quarter to half a teaspoonful. This will act upon the digestive forces of the body.
7. The rest of the applications that have been indicated would be well.
8. These as we find offer the greater relief in the present.
9. Ready for questions.
10. (Q) Should the Poultices be cooked onions or raw?
    (A) Use raw if with the meal; if without the meal, cooked. For this particular body as we find, the raw with the meal would be better - which would make about two-thirds onion and one-third corn meal, see?
11. (Q) Should it be put on warm?
    (A) It should be warm, or else it would give the body a chill; but not hot, just warm.
12. (Q) Should any stimulant be given?
    (A) These have been indicated for the body from time to time, and are well to be taken - that the body can assimilate. It is very weak, and it lies close to changes.
13. (Q) What nourishment should be given at this time?
    (A) As indicated, these are to be given at various times as has been indicated. Sufficient has been GIVEN, if these are to be followed!
14. We are through with this Reading.
