TEXT

1. GC: You will have before you the reading [900-81 & 900-82] taken on June 18 and June 22, 1925, on dreams of [900], particularly that phase of same about snake representing harm to be attempted upon this entity and his mother's counsel. You will also have his mother and wife, [136], before you in relation to this coming condition. First tell of what nature the condition will be, social, financial, in home, in business, and who will be concerned and why. Then pleas answer the following questions, as I ask them.
2. EC: Yes, we have the readings here. This, as we see, refers to two different conditions as are to arise and have arisen in the affairs and associations of this entity. They have to do with financial conditions rather than social or otherwise. Ready for questions.
3. (Q) In order that the body, [900] may intelligently consult with his mother, tell us what underhanded methods will be used to strike at the body [900].
   (A) Rather that of inadvertent counsel than striking purposely at the body in any underhand manner. Rather listen to the counsel of the mother, as has been given in past, and as is given in this. We find some individual. Who, this gives only that projection of an entity returning from some wood or vacation, or some condition outside of their usual turn or position, and that entity offering or giving advice to the entity in a manner directly, almost opposite to that of mother. Heed the counsel of the mother in this respect. This has to do with some financial investment of some nature. The entity should be able to recognize same when presented to the entity.
4. (Q) Who are those who will attempt the deed? The body asks this not to harm anyone, merely to avoid those who would do such a thing, if this may be done, and thus not allow the condition to come.
   (A) This is given. Someone with whom and in whom the entity has confidence in their judgment. On this occasion that of the mother would be the better. Hence the condition as has been given to this body. Not intentional underhanded manner, rather that of indiscretion in correlation of existent conditions to be dealt with.
5. (Q) Why will the deed be attempted? The body hates underhandedness, sneakiness and attempts to deal openly with all, not even sparing himself from condemnation when he takes the undesired path. Then, why should anyone desire his hurt?
   (A) Not the desire for hurt. Rather as has been outlined.
6. (Q) Who is the old man who will go into the woods and will be concerned?
   (A) Someone, as given, in whom the entity has confidence in their judgment. The entity should recognize same by the difference in the opinions of the condition to be dealt with.
   In the other condition, as one met in the room where wash basin shows, this of a different nature. This a younger individual and one, while not attempting to harm, would gain by the financial returns as would be given, should the advice have been followed. This in the manner means and gives that one to whom the entity might lend assistance to entity's own detriment.
7. We are through.
