This psychic reading given by Edgar Cayce at the office of the Association, Arctic Crescent, Virginia Beach, Va., this 4th day of September, 1941, in accordance with request made by the self - Miss [1676], Associate 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, we have the body here; this we have had before.
3. As we find, there have been improvements; then lapses, and then changes as have come about.
4. In the present, - at least once a month we would have a general osteopathic adjustment to keep the centers in the cerebrospinal system in the correct proportion one to another.
5. To be sure, most of such operators would require or desire treatments more often; once or twice or three times a week, but we find that once a month would be very helpful IF the rubs are given at home in this manner:
6. Once each day have a spinal and limb rub with Peanut Oil.
7. Use the low electrical vibrations carrying the Gold; this plate carrying the solution would be attached over the lacteal duct, while the small copper plate would be attached to the lumbar and sacral - or lumbar-sacral axis. Attach this for thirty minutes each day. The Gold Solution would be in the proportions of one grain to each ounce of Distilled Water - one grain Chloride of Gold, you see, to each ounce of Distilled Water - and use at least four to six ounces, dependent upon the container used.
8. Then keep the diet and the activities much in the manner that has been indicated.
9. And these as we find in the present will continue to improve and bring bettered conditions for the body.
10. Ready for questions.
11. (Q) I am considering marriage, and would like to know if I should become a mother would it be injurious to me or the child?
    (A) Would not be advisable for either.
    This may be possible later, but DO keep up the treatments. If there is the desire for the wedded life, very well; but do keep up the treatments, and work towards the desire for motherhood; which with that expectancy, as well as the consistency in taking the treatments, should bring better conditions for the body. But be improved in health before such is consummated - that is, motherhood.
12. (Q) Can you tell me whether my condition is inherited or caused from the fall I received? I was in perfectly normal health until the fall of 1934.
    (A) It is partially a condition innate. Thus, as indicated, it is better that this be nearer corrected before the actuality of attempting motherhood; for self as well as for offspring.
13. (Q) Miss Marian Williamson, Director of the Crippled Children Commission, Louisville, Ky., has asked if I would be interested in an examination from that hospital. Can you advise me as to whether this examination will do any good?
    (A) It is what one does ABOUT the condition and not the examination that does good!
14. We are through with this reading.

REPORTS

1. 4/07/42 [1676]'s letter to EC: "I have been trying to write you since my reading last fall but somehow couldn't sum up the courage, as I failed to carry out your last reading for me. Mother is in bad health, so she couldn't help me out and I had no one else to help me.
   "In my last letter I asked about marriage, so I married last October and moved to ..., Ky., which is between the Cumberland and Tennessee Rivers. My husband is anxious to help me in anyway he can. So if I could get another reading my husband will see that each suggestion is carried out.
   "My back has been hurting me some between my shoulders mostly and some at the base of my spine. Both of my feet and legs have been swelling from my knees down. They have had some soreness there also. This swelling started after I began to wear shoes about first of February.
   "If you can give me this reading will you please make the time during the morning hours. Should I take up any of the back suggestions you have given? What about my diet? Should it be a special diet?
   "I don't know just what to ask but I do want my condition helped and I'm sure it would have been by now, had I had someone to help me out with the suggestions. Most of them I did myself and they made me so tired and weak, also nervous.
   "I have a nice Christian husband and he does what he can to help and is willing to do anything he can.
   "Hoping to hear from you soon..."
