This Psychic Reading given by Edgar Cayce at his home on Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 24th day of April, 1937, in accordance with request made by the self - Mr. [1358], Associate Member of the Ass'n for Research & Enlightenment, Inc., through Mrs. [601].

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

TEXT

1. EC: Yes. As we find there are indications of some improvements.
2. Those conditions of the hands continue to give a great deal of disturbance, but these - too - are somewhat better.
3. As has been indicated, we would keep the Sweet Oil on the hands - preferably, or especially, after they have been bathed or washed in a strong solution of tea from the Mullein Leaves. The hands should be rubbed off in this tea, you see, just as if washing the hands. Then when they are dried (by sponging with the towel, rather than rubbing), pat or rub on the Sweet Oil. This will relieve the tension and the pressure.
4. Do that.
5. The rest we would keep in those ways that have been indicated to reach the basis of the disturbance.
6. Ready for questions.
7. (Q) Will this Mullein Tea and the Sweet Oil relieve the severe itching on hands?
   (A) That is what it is for!
8. We are through with this reading.
