TEXT

1. GC: You will have before you the entity [993], born April 19, 1890, in Norfolk, Va. 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 [993].
3. In giving the outlines in signs and in symbols, that may be made into a drawing that would be helpful for the entity, these symbols are taken from the records of the entity's activity in the earth in periods where a development was indicated.
4. And these that are the picturizations in the period should then represent the high points in that individual period.
5. As to the application of the activity in the period, - this may be indicated by those influences given as signs, seasons, times.
6. In the preparation of same, much - to be sure - depends upon the artist's concept of same, and the attempt in giving the picturizations is to minimize the faults and magnify the virtues. Yet sufficient of these are indicated with the information that has been given, or may be given, of the period itself.
7. For this entity, - we would begin in the center at the bottom by putting a small altar, after the pattern indicated in the mount to Moses. Upon the left side of same put a small drawing indicating excavations of tombs, or a tomb. Upon the right side of the altar put the rising sun, with sufficient clouds to balance same. The figures of themselves indicate colors, to an artist, in its conceiving of creating balance. No figures would appear in either of these scenes.
8. Upon the left side, as to activity, indicate the earth sign; this in something of pink, though as much coral, and about same the four signs or symbols of Aries.
9. Upon the right side put the quarter moon, but facing the sun rising in the central face or figure. This also would be in green and pink; very light pink. About same put the symbols of Pisces.
10. These would indicate the early experience of the entity in Egypt, its interest in those activities of pre-worship, the altar attained to, and the sun as the source of activity.
11. Above this put cliff dwellers, or the face or side of a mountain with the steps and the forms or means of attaining to the ledges in which there would be indicated the individual abodes. These would have several individuals in the various manners of reaching the abodes; steps, ladders, rope or vines.
12. Upon the left side put the sign of Mercury, in green and gold; with the symbols of Leo in very small figures - and black.
13. Upon the right side put the symbol for Venus, in gray with blue, and a little pink and purple in the shadings about same. The symbols of activity about same would be the sign of Sagittarius.
14. These are the indication of the entity's experience in that called the American land, and those activities in the home or safety building. The colors in the cliff would be slate and gray, with white and sufficient color in the foliage to balance same.
15. Above this put an INSIDE view of the Temple Beautiful; this indicating the seven stations, or seven centers, and with figures at each station. This would be very elaborate as to color tones; being as of an opalescence hue, with the heavens seen in the dome or ceiling - and these would be indicated over the various stations, - the sun, the moon, the cross (the southern cross indicated here), the dippers, and the two large stars indicating the morning and the evening star, as well as the dog star. The cross, - put this as a square, or each of the same length lines, over the central figure, or the figure indicated as being opposite the sun. The dress of the figures should indicate the colors of the rainbow, or the seven primary colors; these carrying, then, the indication of attainment of the entity through the experience in that particular period of unfoldment.
16. Upon the left put, here, the indicated sign of Jupiter; this in purple and gray, while the symbols about same would be of Libra - small, and black.
17. Upon the right side put the sign of Uranus; this in gold and blue, and the symbols about same of Pisces - these being the signs, or the fish, rather than the symbol form as given in the other symbol.
18. Above this put three figures. The central one would be the Cross, or three crosses in the distance, and one depicted as the character of Peter fleeing from same; this figure with all its distress, with its ruggedness and with its sorrow depicted in the face, and the torn garments on same. On the left put the Master walking on water; no figure indicated in the boat - which would be in the distance. Upon the right would be the tomb being opened when Lazarus was called forth. This would be indicated as a tomb in the side of the mount; the Master with the love, the compassion, the tenderness shown in the face, calling forth. Figures would be indicated in the background, none too close in front, save the kneeling Martha close to the garments of the Master - with expectancy and yet awe and fear in same.
19. Upon the left put the moon facing the central figure, and about same the symbols of Aries. The moon in this particular instance would be gray, green and pink.
20. Upon the right would be the moon again, facing the central figure. Here, too, the sign would be Aries.
21. These indicate an experience felt and known, yet not indicated in the first information for the entity, but a period of activity as indicated in the drawings, but in the symbols that of fear.
22. The central figure above this would be a colonial home, of broad acres, of tenements, and all the beauty in same; a large building, the white pillars, many people indicated in small figures in the backgrounds; cattle, horses, as of abundance, and the roadways and the grounds beautiful in shade, in lawn, and in the appurtenances for the luxury in the experience of such dwellings. This central figure should be very broad, to be sure.
23. Upon the left put again Uranus; this time gray and green, with just the faint tinge of pink, showing the divisions in the extremes wrought in the experience; while about that would be the symbols of the archer, or the symbol in same.
24. Upon the right would be the symbol of Venus; this in pink and blue, and the symbols about same of Libra, or the balance.
25. That to which the entity may attain:
26. In the central portion, high up, put the Cross borne by cherubs, or the seraphim; this haloed with the clouds - as of stars; these all five-pointed, and these extending upon either side down to the others. The cross would be in gold, the stars in white and gold.
27. The whole of this should be as upon a scroll, but this fastened in the center only at top and bottom, straight in the sides.
28. This we find the aura chart of [993].
29. We are through for the present.
