This psychic reading given by Edgar Cayce at his home on Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 14th day of September, 1940, in accordance with request made by the self through husband, Mr. [779], Active Member of the Ass'n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc.

Present: Edgar Cayce; Gertrude Cayce, Conductor; Gladys Davis, Steno.

TEXT

1. GC: You will give the physical condition of this body at the present time, with suggestions for further corrective measures; answering the questions, as I ask them:
2. EC: Yes.
3. As we find, conditions have reverted very much to those that we have had heretofore.
4. There needs be, again, more of those corrections as first indicated, with the manipulations to equalize the heart's activity; also the colonic irrigations the more often to aid in reducing the blood pressure.
5. Make the better coordination of the heart's activity with the adjustments, then; and DO remove those excess forces through the colon - and we will reduce the blood pressure.
6. The adjustments we would make at least three to four times a week, for the first two to three weeks.
7. Take the colonics about ten days apart for the first three. After that, they may be a month apart - if there are no indications of the mucous from the colon at such time. This does not mean high enemas, but Colonic Irrigations! If self is to undertake same, use the colon tube, - see?
8. The Radio-Active Appliance WOULD be beneficial for this body, if taken about thirty minutes each day, - preferably in the afternoon as the body rests. Alternate the attachments about the body in the manner that has been indicated for the use of same; keeping the attachment plates very clean; and using those periods of application as the periods for meditation.
9. Be mindful of the diets, - not too heavy foods, nor too great quantities. Just keep away from too much of heavy foods, and have at least some fruit or some raw vegetables for at least two meals each day.
10. Do not be overactive. Not that the body is to refrain entirely from exercise, but do not HURRY too fast; do not walk up long flights of steps; do not lift heavy weights; do not push or pull things about too much. These are too much for the body's vitality at the present.
11. Ready for questions.
12. (Q) Is the heart in a very dangerous condition?
    (A) This depends upon what would be the criterion for judgement. If the activities are consistent with the conditions as indicated, we need not be fearful. If these are not regarded, or if they are disregarded, - it is a very bad condition.
13. (Q) Is the blood pressure such as to cause any alarm?
    (A) These - the blood pressure and the heart - are coordinant one with the other. One is just as serious as the other. Thus the pressures in the colon CAUSE much of the disturbance.
    The adjustments and manipulations, WITH the colonic irrigations, will cause the vibrations to change - if they are used consistently, persistently - with the Radio-Active.
    Do that.
14. (Q) How long should this treatment be continued before another check-up?
    (A) This will depend upon the reactions of the body to the general disturbances. In six to ten weeks we may give more information, if so desired.
15. We are through for the present with this reading.

BACKGROUND

1. See 780-9 on 12/11/39 and subsequent Reports.
2. 9/09/40 Husband submitted questions.

REPORTS

1. 10/20/40 Letter from [779] to EC: "...Well, I want to say something about the reading for Mrs. [780]... This reading and the Dr.'s diagnosis were just as near alike as could be. The difference is that he prescribed medicine in place of adjustments. The diet, rest and general cure just the same. We are having some trouble in giving the treatment as suggested because we have been unable to get the Radio-Active Appliance..." [[779] tried to borrow Appliance, without success. Tried to order from Health Home Remedies Corp., but order not even acknowledged.]
   "...So after more than a month's delay we have started the adjustments and other suggestions without the Radio-Appliance, so guess the results will also be disappointing because of the fact the reading not being carried out as suggested...
   "Mrs. [780] has been on diet leaving off the heavy foods, and she is feeling much better and has lost 10 or 12 lbs. in weight..."
2. 9/01/41 Letter from [779] to EC: "...Wife [780] doing fine now. Very well and feels good all the time, except at times that old Hay fever grabs her and takes her for a ride..."
3. 9/15/41 EC's letter: "Have you got the formula for the inhalant for hay fever [261-8?]? I think Mrs. [780] would find that would help. Someone was just this morning telling me what wonders it had done for them."
4. 1/20/42 Letter from [779] to EC: "...Wife [780] was hit by an automobile this P.M. one month ago. She was in the hospital for 8 days. She was pretty badly bruised up and shocked. Very lucky no bones broken. So we did not have her home with us. I think the Dr's were afraid the shock would cause her heart to go bad as her heart was already in bad shape. I am so thankful it was not worse and she is not back home doing very well except she is still pretty sore and stiff from the experience. Yesterday was the first time she has been out since coming home. I was in picture show when they came for me and you can bet I was some upset when they told me she had been taken to hospital. She will go down and get a check up pretty soon, then tho I think we will have a double check from you..."
5. 3/15/42 Letter from [779] to EC: "...She [780] has not had a check up since leaving hospital and may be a good idea to do this as there may be something that has not shown up as yet..."
6. 3/28/42 See 780-11.
